Street Figher III: 3rd Strike is, hands down, the best fighting game. Street Fighter doesn't really need to make a comeback, it's already here.

The best thing about Street Fighter was crushing the car.

I like Street Fighter III: Third Strike and Street Fighter Alpha 3.
I play Street Fighter Alpha 3 a lot on Kaillera using the MAME32k emulator. It is a great way to get to play fighting games against other players from around your location.

I hate Street Fighter. SFII is the game that initially turned me away from fighting games for ten years. I played it when I was seven or eight or so, and it was so terrible that I could never bring myself to play fighting games after that. I hated/still hate to this day how you sort of hang in the air when you jump, and some characters (Dee Jay and Zangief come to mind, although to be fair, Dee Jay wasn't added until later so I'm mostly talking about Zangief) could do moves that take off 2/3 of your life. And I understand why it was an important game in the history of video games, and why it's really well balanced etc. You can save it, because I've heard it all and I understand it all. The thing was, when I was eight I didn't understand. All I knew was that this game pissed me off, and that was enough.
Another problem I have with Street Fighter games is the lack of character. Allow me to explain. SF characters all have unique designs. I can't argue with that. That said, none of them appeal to me. When I pick up Soul Calibur or King of Fighters or Guilty Gear or whatever, there's always one character who immediately appeals to me. SF does not. I typically end up playing as Ken or Ryu just because everyone else is so lame (the only exception being Juli in SFA3 who I'm pretty good with for no reason). For example, in Third Strike (my favorite SF game), I typically play as Ryu or Ken because my other choices are so insane. I can play as a tan dude in a diaper, a black guy who can't fight, a russian punk, a white alien thing, spunky karate girl who sucks, horse thighs, Duo, Trowa, or friggin Q. I'm sure I left people out, but you get the point. Bottom line: SF's character design, which unique, does not appeal to me.
That said, SFIII:Third Strike is kind of fun, and SFA3 is okay. Alright.
Oh, almost forgot: the SF EX games are horrible, but Skullomania is probably the coolest guy ever.
No.
Street Fighter is the best Fighting game they revolutionized the industry Chun Lee, Cammy, and Dee Jay are the best. Street Fighter's already in 3-d
Street fighter EX3

My thoughts exactly. They added SOME cool characters here and there.....but there's really no story.....and the stages feel...EMPTY and unispired....the moves could've looked way better(more lighting and destructive-looking).Originally Posted by Dreddz
^ Although those are points, i dont think you should specifically buy a fighting game because of that..i havent played EX myself, what made the fighting system so bad? Maximum Impact style or something?
Yup it's basically like Maximum Impact. The character's animations are not as FLUID as the ones that are/can be done in 2D fighter's. And the winning stances are...bad..very bad..............Originally Posted by Lionx
. I mean, why couldn't they make 3D environments that actually looked ALIVE....those pre-rendered stages they make are plain and look dead.
But worse of all, the moves...the moves don't look that great............and the animation of those moves are slow too, if they made the fighting system a little faster, you could get into it.....but most moves animate themselves at normal speeds....with every character and every move. And worst of all...the moves themselves don't look great.......I'd like a Psycho Crusher that actually looked IMPRESSIVE with lots of lighting.
Where was that Sephex thread about how bad Street Fighter is?
EDIT: Found it.

Street Fighter has pretty much been killed by Capcom. Capcom just keeps milking the Street Fighter franchise (like they do all their franchises) by re-releasing ports into collections or a new Vs Capcom game. We need a real, brand-new Street Fighter game. You know, the last non-port Street Fighter game was Street Fighter EX 3? That was 5 years ago and it was a major dissapointment. What Capcom needs to do is reinvent the Street Fighter series like they did with Resident Evil 4. They need to completely revamp everything including the story, fighters, and gameplay. Yes, we will all miss Guile, Ken, Ryu, Chun Li, and etc., but they have been used to death. All their stories and reasons to fight are gone, we need a fresh approach to the series. This also means changing the gameplay machinics. Why not make it completely 3D? Have completely 3D environments where you can run/fight anywhere! Make the fights take place in the streets of a big city where you can explore and pick fights with people. Something drastic has to happen in the series if Capcom hopes for the series to ever make it back up to the popularity it once had in its prime (Street Fighter II days).
Well, that's my opinion.
