[RoboDan]

Hey guys,

To anyone whose a classic "Street Fighter II" game fan, check this out. Capcom is releasing a new version of it's popular fighter for it's 15th Anniversary! Titled: Hyper Street Fighter II: Anniversary Edition"



Here's some details:
"Officially announced a couple weeks ago, Capcom officially unveiled Hyper Street Fighter II Anniversary Edition at its TGS '03 Press Meeting. The game, as you probably have guessed, is not an official sequel in the long-running series of fighting games, but is instead a unique twist on the game that we all know and love. For release this December in Japan, the PlayStation 2 fighter is a mix of previous Street Fighter II editions, namely Street Fighter II, Super Street Fighter II, and Super Street Fighter II Turbo, which is being used as the base of the game. The fighter will feature the character versions found in each of the games, as well as any other features such as the Super meter. That means you'll be able to concoct such matches as Chun Li from the original Street Fighter II versus the Super Street Fighter II game, complete with fireball and super moves."

Still the best beat-em-up series, but will speed be improved to compare to the Alpha games?

Chun-Li used to be my babe... She's always my favourite and being not good at videogame at all, I'm only 'good' playing with her character.

I presume this will be available in all formats? (PS2? X-box? Gamecube?... Super-Nintendo? )

Solid games but the characters weren't as well balanced so I reccomend sticking with Aloha 3.
