Net Fighter is an online one-on-one fighting game developed by Syrox Developments (formerly knowned as Psy-Rox) and published by SegaSoft exclusively on Heat.net.
Story
"In the distant future, with little or no room to house the millions of criminals, Cyber-Prisons have replaced material prisons to save space in this crowded, high-tech world, and to reduce the number of potential prison escapees to zero. After being placed into a catatonic state and sealed in a cyber-chamber, a convict is transferred to a virtual city full of criminals of all kinds, forced to survive in the unforgiving environment created by the criminal populace. Within this virtual prison-city there are all kinds of legal and many illegal activities that are held there. One of these is the Net Fighter death-match tournament. In this tournament there are few rules, where only the strong survive, and only the strongest can hope to win.
Extensions of their real-life counterparts, the fighters may or may not be entirely like their physical beings. Some are real-life fighters or assassins, some have the heart of a warrior but lacked the physical ability in the real world. Their true beings manifest themselves in this cyber-prison, and the toughest become Net Fighters. In the real world they no longer exist, they are cyber-beings, but that is all they know. Even their memory is wiped, although there is a cult following that believes that the populace are mere pawns of some unseen force. In fact, they are".
Playable characters
|
Khan |
|---|---|
| Kahn is the strongest and most fierce of the Net Fighters, having come from a tribe of warriors in the desert Outlands. He is infused with the power of the deadly cyber-beast, having killed the creature with his bare hands. The tattoos he wears are made of the blood of the beast and his "hair" is actually interwoven links of chain-like fur imbedded in his skull with a pony-tail that ends with a huge razor-sharp claw taken from the beast. His fighting style is best defined as "Pit Fighting", a simple yet brutal blend of the most effective punches, kicks, elbows, knees, and head butts.
Kahn was banished from his tribe when he killed young woman Kahn was fond of. Although an outcast,Kahn fights to bring glory to his tribe, and to come back one day and become Chieftain. | |

Gemini7 |
| Gemini7, are the 7th and only surviving pair of dwarf clones in a special project known as the Gemini Experiment. The dwarf twins were bred to work as a team, and to become special infiltration weapons for a military operation. Having the amazing ability to manipulate energy around them, the dwarves could actually forge attacks and defenses from their own psychic energy. After discovering the deaths of the six clone-pairs before them, and how they were to be used, they escaped and found work in the Circus of Freaks, hiding their psychic powers. They performed well as an acrobatic team, but after a few years, the military discovered their whereabouts. The dwarves fled the circus and found temporary sanctuary in the Net Fighter tournaments, where they could more easily hide in the underworld of the fighting circuit | |
|
Ripper |
| Her face shrouded in the shadows of a crimson cowl, little is known about this latest entrant to the Net Fighter Tournament. All that is known is she has come to fight, and this shapely robot-warrior has torn through the competition with razor-sharp claws and lethal eye-blasts, leaving more than a few corpses in her wake. She fights in a style known as Kenpo, which incorporates quick, slashing hand strikes (perfect when combined with her vicious claws) and carefully aimed kicks.
The fighter with no name became known as Ripper, the name a fight fan coined after watching her disembowel an opponent. Her silent, predatory style alone is enough to make anyone uneasy. Ripper's "skin" has a smooth, metallic sheen, and she moves with the grace of a cat, causing others to speculate that she may not be a robot at all. No one has gotten close enough to find out... | |
|
Phreak |
| Phreak is a phone hacker, a kickboxer, a cyborg, a capeiora-stylist, and a musician. He is jovial and friendly, cunning and sharp, and one of the meanest fighters in the tournament. His unpredictability and wide-range of combat skills make him unorthodox, but effective. His technique is a free-style blend of several martial arts (kick boxing, capeoira, karate) as well as his moves of his own creation and abilities.
Phreak fights for fun, to test himself, and to inflict some pain along the way. The money isn't bad either, he feels. |
