# Hyper Street Fighter Zero Gold: byte-matched PS2 source recovery

> Hyper Street Fighter Zero Gold reconstructs the hidden PS2 game Hyper Street Fighter Zero as C source, with one file per matched function. Its round-trip tools compile the recovered C, assemble remaining code, link a full image and compare it byte for byte with the user's original. The author reports the project is about 91% complete; a native PC hardware-abstraction layer remains unfinished.
