The game just feels very different from the previous games as well as SFIV. Almost the entire roster is new characters and the parry mechanic is something an advanced player must learn in order to succeed. I mean, it came out in 1999, but for those of you who don’t know, Street Fighter III was different than many of the Street Fighter games out there. Now, I won’t get into the main mechanics of the game itself.

There are character trials, parry trials, and even a handicap trial that requires you to make a comeback to win. These will not only earn vault points, but it will also help out the players looking for bit of combo practice. The game also features an extensive trials mode that puts you in situations and asks you to perform a specific combo. The challenges themselves are things you would normally get by playing through the game: perform super moves, parry a number of attacks, win a number of rounds, that sort of thing, but the fact that it’s always popping up on the left side of the screen is what keeps me going for them all. There’s a ton of stuff here for the Street Fighter fanatics. Those things include art work for each character and remixed music that you can custom set for the game. Taking a page out of Final Fight Double Impact, Online Edition has challenges to complete that reward the player with points they can spend unlocking things in the vault. It’s just a nice feature for all the video junkies out there.
I was not able to try out this feature, but Capcom has stated it will be coming very soon after launch. The really cool thing is you can automatically upload your replays to YouTube through the game itself. The game will allow you to record matches and save them as replays. One really great thing is the replay feature. It is very extensive and really shows the player that you can make the game play however you want. You can set timing of blocks and parries, turn off jumping, make everything cancel into another move, and much more. The game allows for Dipswitches, giving you your very own customization tool for the game. One of the biggest, and most unique, aspects of Online Edition is the customization.

8 player lobbies, with a full spectator mode, made the cut, something a recent, high-profile Capcom fighting game lacks (I’m not mentioning any names.)
The online feature suite includes ranked matches, player matches, and online tournaments. I played a good amount of matches and never once experienced lag. Of course, with the Online Edition in the title, you can probably guess that there is online play for Third Strike. There’s even a cool arcade cabinet look that gives off the rounded edges. You can change the look of the game at anytime. The graphics have been smoothed and the sprites look just as good as they did back in ’99. Capcom has decided to bring back the classic 1999 game to XBLA and PSN in the form of Street Fighter III: Third Strike Online Edition.Įverything from the original Third Strike is here. Between the release of Third Strike and the coming of Street Fighter IV, nearly 10 years passed, so many hold Third Strike in very high regard. SFIII had 2 other iterations balancing the game and adding new characters to the mix. One of those games was, of course, Street Fighter III. Others, like me, started with the older games that paved the way for the ever-popular fighting game. Many people began playing fighting games with SFIV. Fighting games have made a massive resurgence in the past few years with the release of Street Fighter IV. The definitive version of Street Fighter III just got more definitive.Īh, Street Fighter, one of the biggest fighting games that has ever been produced.
