STREET FIGHTER III 3RD STRIKE FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE SERIES

STREET FIGHTER III 3RD STRIKE FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE SERIES

Sound = 9 The soundtrack is great with what I am guessing is a hip-hop/rap and/or techno inspired soundtrack that wins points for being new and different for the series but fits the consistent mood of the game surprisingly well. The smooth animation, huge numbers of moves and beautiful backgrounds add up to one of the prettiest 2d fighters prior to the introduction of 3d graphics to the series in SF4. For example, Makoto the karate girl goes through tons of frames of animation just walking as she takes slow and deliberate steps. Graphics = 10 A huge improvement over SF2 and even the Alpha series, people used to either of those prequels will instantly notice the high frame rates of all the varied, interesting-looking characters. That all having been said, the game is top-notch quality. ] Finally, unlike SF4 that simplified the inputs that the game accepts as a special move allowing for sloppier inputted commands and more casual gamers access to advanced techniques and strategies, SF3 while upping the complexity of combos and things over SF2 required precise inputs to trigger the special moves, perhaps further distancing casual SF fans while appeasing fighting game elitists who feel success in the game should be earned by devoted study.

This parry system adds depth and challenge to the game and rewards patient gamers but may confuse fans of SF2 who hoped for more of the same. I know I can't describe it worth beans but try googling sf3 tournament finish, a very short yet thrilling youtube video entitled 'Street Fighter: The Beast Is Unleashed - YouTube' will show exactly the moment I am describing. Possibly the most thrilling moment in fighting game tournament history is when Daigo, on the ropes and on the verge of death, rather than blocking a chun li super combo parried the whole thing (a whopping 15 consecutive parries of chun-li's furious feet were required), the crowd went wild and Daigo's place as a fighting game legend was cemented. The timing required is so precise, it's more tricky than it sounds. Appealing to hard-core fighting game fans, SF3 introduced a high-risk high-reward 'parry' system-by tapping toward the attack at the moment it hits, on the ground or in the air it matters not, you can parry it or let it pass damage-free (not even damage-on-block for special moves) and there is no delay between your parry and your ability to counter, meaning you are better able to punish your opponent than if you simply block. Additional characters from the SF2 roster were introduced as SF3 got its updated versions but the impression that this was a different sort of Street Fighter had already been made. Ryu had been the main character of all previous and future Street Fighter games (unless you count the Guile-centric 'Street Fighter the Movie' lol). The main protagonist of the first SF3 Fight the Future was Alex, a 'grappler' character who specializes in throwing his foes. Also, while SF3 did not initially focus on nor include many of the returning and beloved main characters, SF3 introduced a new main character. SF3 was not released (at least not immediately) to any of the most popular gaming platforms of the time which is part of the reason why it is less known to home gamers than SF2 or SF4. Street Fighter 3 is the sequel to the uber-famous SF2, 3rd Strike is the 3rd iteration of the SF3 series. Street Fighter 3 has some aspects that may appeal to fighting game fanatics while turning off casual gamers and nostalgic SF2 fans. I would argue it is less accessible than it could have been, though by requiring a lot of skill to get deep into the game, they inspired a lot of die-hard SF3 fanatics. Street Fighter III 3rd Strike: Fight for the Future (Euro 990608) Review by: bsnowotter - 9.5/10 Street Fighter 3 !! 'Nuff said (almost) Street Fighter 3 is a great installment in the Street Fighter series and is considered by some to be the finest in the series, though what some love about it may turn others toward other options.
