As Destructoid writes, Street Fighter Alpha 3 looks like it'll be the latest from Capcom's expansive back catalog to be dusted down and thrown to the wolves, with the ESRB re-rating the title for a PlayStation 3 release.

I never played an of the Alphas. Now that all 3 are going to be up on PSN, which would should I get? Common sense would say to get the third one, but you really never know, sometimes the sequels aren't as good.

Some people may disagree, saying Alpha 2 was better, but I disagree with those people soley based on the fact that the gameplay in Alpha 3 simply has more variety; this is thanks to the "ISM" system that basically lets you create your own fighting style no matter which character you choose.

Thanks, guys. I'll get Alpha 3, then, when they post it up on PSN.

Street Fighter Alpha 3 is still my favourite Street Fighter game.

Played it 4 years on the ps one.

Street Fighter Alpha 3 Flawlessly Ends Trilogy of Arcade Games

Carl Williams writes, "It is not like Capcom to simply release a fighting game and not milk it somehow. We saw this with Street Fighter II which has many updates, all of which were additional full purchases, on Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis. Maybe they realized fans were not going to go for that forever by the time they got around to releasing the “Alpha” series of games. Street Fighter Alpha 3 is the final game in the Alpha series and it seems that Capcom went all out for it."

A remaster of this on next gen, just up the res and keep the gameplay = money. Capcom likes money.

Alex Gibson at IGCritic writes "Boss battles have both defined and ruined games gone by. Over the years, their execution has proved a veritable art form that some developers absolutely excel at and others fail hopelessly to master"

Phuthermarian Descendent (spelling is off) from Bloodborne. F that guy - the last boss of the main game is a joke compared to him.

Omega weapon is in FFVIII, not FFVII.

ONESHOTV23017d ago

the last boss in zelda the minish cap lol i could pull out all of my hair playing fighting that last boss

Alma from NG isn't that hard imo. Usually fighting game bosses are pain. They always an inhuman with crazy azz power or giant spamming azz. Kof12, battle fantasia, chaos code etc... even virtua fighter has an inhuman boss.

DeadManMMX3017d ago

Man I'm trying to remember. I think Omega Weapon is the one at the bottom of swirling set of steps where even the No Encounter skill doesn't work and your forced to go all the way down fighting everything before you get to him. That game is one of my all time favorites. I would love a remake.

20 years of PlayStation - top 20 games (Part 1)

Chalgyr's Game Room writes:

So I have been gaming for... a long time now. I have had most consoles over the years at one point or the other, but one of the few I had day one was the original Sony PlayStation. Why is this significant? Because the system is celebrating its twenty year anniversary this week (technically yesterday here in North America). I absolutely loved this system and put together a lot of my fondest video gaming memories playing it. So, to celebrate twenty years, I am listing out my top twenty games today.
