There was a mid 80's game called gladiator. MK was a joke...since I'm running out of ideas.
Street fighter?
Samurai

Seriously can no one think of a martial arts fighting game from this period, released just after (and far superior to) IK and Way of the exploding fist?Comment

Damn! I just wanted to guess exploding fist!
Edit: After I reviewed the thread once again I noticed it has already been guessed. These things happen when you aren't regular.

More varied opponents, more varied moves.Comment

Was the a game called Karate Kid? That'll be my guess, since I know no other Martial Arts games that haven't already been mentioned...This space is empty... or is it?Comment

Great site Doc.
You wouldn't know a commodore64 counterpart of it, would you?Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

Darn - another one i would have got had i been here the last couple of days.....
Was it really better than IK? I never played Yie Ar Kung Fu, but IK was a great game - lots of levels/16 moves/many varied inter level challanges(i loved the head butting one). It was a very pure martial arts game.
[and i find it hard to believe a spectrum game genre could have a better game than my beloved Atari 8bit
- however i was envious of the rather cool advert/box art for it, which made me want to play it - that nunchuka dude looked mean

Well I liked IK but Yie Ar Kung Fu set the standard in my view for a good while. It's sad but most of the Tekken/Soul Calibur/VF adherents think beat-em-ups began with SF2, but those early Spectrum (and related platforms) games are the real ancestors.

I played yie ar kung fu 2. It was C64 game. However, this game had fewer moves. That's why I never suspected the great classic.Comment
