I'm getting this as soon as it hits the Playstation Network.

xVeZx4680d ago

i thik its about time they up the achievement points cap for arcade games....arcade games are much bigger now than what they were in the beginning...

RockmanII74680d ago

250 would be the sweet spot. $15/250 = $30/500 = $60/1K points.

ChronoJoe4680d ago

Yep, this for instance will have as much content as basically any other fighter.

I play on PS3 though, so it doesn't matter much to me. On PSN some PSN games actually have platinum trophies (as in, completely full trophy sets) for instance Worms 2 has the equivalent of 1000 gamerscore attainable.

It kinda devalues the game a little, not having the same trophy set as retail titles. Which seems kinda unfair.

RockmanII74680d ago

The MK bundle is a much better deal, I would rather get 3 fighting games than 1 so unless this is 400 points Netherealms has once again beat Capcom.

Graphics4680d ago

What, you must be a causal fighting game person. Because 3rd strike is one the best fighting games ever and is better than any MK game created.

RockmanII74680d ago

Says the guy with the Akuma avatar, yea your not biased.

Baka-akaB4680d ago (Edited 4680d ago )

Of course , nevermind that it is a somewhat universal opinion (if any exist) ... that SF3 is one of the best , if not best 2d fighter to existence .

Or that it features the best 2d animation seen yet in a fighting game ...

Let's focus on the avatar instead

Graphics4680d ago

I am not biased, I own MK9, I play MK9. Add me on psn or 360 if you want a match. I play Subzero, Noob, and Ermac. Its a fact that street fighter is the better fighting game of the 2. It seems that you rather have quantity instead of quality.

ChronoJoe4680d ago (Edited 4680d ago )

But MK is ass. lol only fighter worse is DOA. Fighter that's still kinda going that is.

Baka-akaB4680d ago

all of the MK games combined arent worth sf3 ...

We play fighting games , not "finish him" gimmicks :p

Gohadouken4680d ago (Edited 4680d ago )

once again ? When and what did they even won ? lol .

The game's presence at fighting games events , and tourney , is but a feint murmure , most likely to fade with the lack of true depth to the game's mechanics ..

Sales ? Aye it sold very well , but so what ? Not better than the other popular fighting game franchises from capcom or namco .

And the online is the worst seen , at least until fixed , since KOFXII .

But by all mean keep your hollow victories .

RockmanII74680d ago

I was talking about MvC3, hence why I said Netherealm and Capcom not MK and SF. Can you honestly say that MvC3 is better than MK?

Gohadouken4680d ago (Edited 4680d ago )

actually honesty , i do feel its better than MK .

MVC3 features are horrible and lacking , but the gameplay is just better imo and ripe with possibilities i dont see within MK . Even if its a really well done game , and a model of sort for future games , when it comes to story modes features .

Even so , nevermind the divergence of opinion , it's not selling better yet than MVC3 neither .
Nor does have a presence as big and interesting among tourney dwellers

How Street Fighter III Nearly Killed Capcom's Franchise

Oro is one of Street Fighter V's most anticipated fighters, a far cry from when Street Fighter III nearly derailed Capcom's fighting series for good.

phoenixwing983d ago (Edited 983d ago )

3rd strike on dreamcast is my fav street fighter

DarXyde982d ago

Mainline games, I agree it was great (though, for obvious reasons, II's music is more nostalgic and popular). My favorite Street Fighter OST was Street Fighter Alpha III's.

SFIII itself was good, but for me, it wasn't until Second Impact and Third Strike that we saw such an evolution from the last numbered entry.

darthv72983d ago

And here I thought it had something to do with the many variations of IV.

Teflon02983d ago

4 had 4 versions, SFII had like 6 or 7, 3 had 3. Not much of an issue really. 5 has 3 and will probably finish on 4, though atleast it's 1 games that updates unlike 4 which was 2 separate games and the games before it being entirely separate titles

Godmars290983d ago

Though it was just the shift from arcades to home consoles.

zahdab983d ago

very much doubt it, angel of darkness didn't kill tomb raider all the sonic flops didn't kill sonic ... franchises have ups and downs

5 Reasons Street Fighter V Looks a lot Like Street Fighter III

IGN - After plenty of rumors (and one big leak), Capcom finally unveiled Street Fighter V at the PlayStation Experience last week. A gameplay trailer focused on two of Street Fighter’s classic world warriors, Ryu and Chun Li, battling it out on an ultra-detailed new stage. It didn't initially look like the short reveal gave much away, but there are details that might have gone unnoticed.

In fact, Street Fighter's future might lie in its past - Street Fighter V features several striking similarities to Street Fighter III, last seen in the late 1990s.

Majin-vegeta3423d ago (Edited 3423d ago )

I saw someone mention this during the reveal.Hopefully alex makes it in

Edit:Found it

Abash3423d ago (Edited 3423d ago )

Im really hoping for Remy and Oro to return in SF5! Some of my fav SF3 fighters

XtraTrstrL3423d ago

Oro FTW! That was my main.

bouzebbal3423d ago

haha Oro and Remy. Two legendary characters.
i am hoping for a mix between SF3 and Alpha characters. SF3 3rd strike had too many newcomers and not many classics. i think a balance would be great in SFV.

gangsta_red3423d ago

I think it would be cool if they moved the story after part 3. It felt weird that part four took place between part 2 and 3.

Even though part 3 had more of a darkstalkers vibe with it's characters I really liked Elena, Alex and Urien. Would like to see those characters make a return.

Alex deserves a return.

GokuSolosAll3423d ago

Asura should make it this time around; imagine his crazy ultras!

Inception3423d ago

Dudley, Ibuki, Makoto, and Sean are a must for me. And maybe Q too. I enjoy using him but his a f*kin mystery. The ending also didn't gave a single clue of who / what is he. But no Gill please! :(

Also, guard parry need to appear again. I enjoy focus attack as a defensive / offensive feature in SF IV. But guard parry is more challenging to do.
