For those that pre-ordered on PSN Play, don't forget that all unlockableswill be included in the game because of that by which you get to choose Gill when you first boot up the game instead of unlocking him when you have to play all the characters. Whose excited to play the "real" Street Fighter game coming out today on the PS Store?

Third Strike was the bomb back in the day on the Dreamcast. I played that game all day long and was getting better beating my friends when they come. It's the most tactical fighter I've played ever!

So damn excited, the game is a classic.

I 'pre-ordered' it, but I'm going away on vacation the next week so I won't be able to dl it til I get back. :(

It's almost better than SF4 in every way imo. Art style, music, characters and gameplay.

Actually, it is better than SF4 in every way imo. SF4 was a downgrade and didn't even have advance blocking like SF3 did.

I already have it preordered. Hopefully the transition with Ibuki from SS4 to 3rd Strike is easy.

If you're a PS Plus member, it'll be $11.99 but if you're not, than it's the original $14.99.

I wish I liked Street Fighter, I just can't get into the fighting system. :( I'm more of a Tekken or Mortal Kombat juggler. I'll enjoy watching this being played thought, like SF4.

I'm actually debating picking this game up. I like all those challenges they packed into the game.

I'm more of a Tekken person myself, but Street Fighter just takes time to get to know the fighting system. It took me a while, but I learned it. Same with Tekken and all its fighters.

Assuming most people who will buy this game will be those very familiar with it, I don't see how I can ever play online.....already I'm getting obliterated in SSF4

Play as Yun, Sakura and Yang they juggle similar to Tekken characters.

Third Strike was the bomb back in the day on the Dreamcast. I played that game all day long and was getting better beating my friends when they come. It's the most tactical fighter I've played ever!

I played it on the anniversary collection on the ps2, and it was teh only sf i got into. SF4 ended up being too techinical for me (it's a slower, more methodical pace compared to sf3), and sf2 (the hd remake) is too - well, old. MK9 was great as well, but this is just more affordable than any other fighters out in the market right now. Plus it's a cult classic.

I love sf3 - admittedly it's the high-end tournament plays that got me mesmerized (diago vs justin wong, anyone?) - sf3 is all about comebacks, thanks to the parrying system

that is a good possibility but with practice anyone can get good at a sf game just some of us have a good 20 years or more at playing it really it took me around 10 years to get good at the game, and theres always a lot to play the game offline, if you like sf and fighting games don't miss out on this classic game redone

Well it's not really only the juggles and stuff, it's not friendly to noobs like me. I borrowed SF4 a couple years ago from my friend and it the game didn't help me learn the ropes at all. It was punishingly difficult and cheap to me (I swear the CPU was throwing me about 10 times a match) and it just led to ridiculous frustration. The training mode sucked and there was no way, outside of a lot of practice or youtube videos, to get good in a reasonable amount of time. I even think I made a thread here about it then and still didn't get it. Hell, you probably posted in it. :P The other thing is I don't find there to be many moves and the moves that are there rely to heavily on quarter circles and consecutive quarter circles. Mortal Kombat ( being super noob friendly but also deep) and Tekken (played since I was a kid) just feel natural to me. One button per limb is also super helpful. SF isn't a bad game, I just think it's too late for me.

I might get it today. I haven't been into fighting games for some time but 3rd Strike was one of my favorites.

I was thinking about getting the game but after playing SFIV again and realizing that I suck at fighting games, I don't know if I should bother.

I'm just waiting for it to become available!

Also, I watched a feature on some site--could have been this one--and it looks like it is going to have a really intuitive training feature that really does a good job teaching players the different techniques involved.
