This pack is all the arcade editions so you won't get any of the extra console modes, right?

Mostly not, but you get training mode and online for four of the games. And a versus mode for all of them.

We should migrate GRcade to Flarum. :toot:

It's still cool but I loved the mode of SFA3 where you had to fight characters with weird rules like you could only hurt a character if you could break their block or you'd have to fight five E Honda's at once.

I'll be getting this on PS4 and bullying my friends into getting it too, could see a switch purchase down the line as well.

Retrospective video narrated by commentator James Chen, interesting stuff, talks you through the changes between versions of SF2.



I hope there's a similar video for Alpha and 3 coming soon, but they're leaving it late if there is.

Been playing these on FBA in the meantime. I will always be mediocre online but I find SF the only fighting games I find fun.

As far as stock pads go I think the Xbox one may be best as the clicky dpad gives good feedback for diagonals. Not sure it's worth me getting a stick at my level.

strawberry float, this sights need to make it more expensive. I think it should be £40 going forward.

Alpha retrospective. Looking forward to watching this at lunch :D

I've cleaned up the OP and made it a bit clearer as well.

I'll probably get the Switch or PC version at some point.

It's a shame it's only the Arcade versions as the console Alpha 3 had loads of cool modes (As Lex-man has already said).

Might need to boot up the PS1 version of it at some point.

Think I'm going to buy this off the US Switch eshop, £45 vs $40 is wretched :/

Cancelled my ps4 order for now cos I actually don't see any of my IRL friends getting this so I'll wait to see where the online majority goes before biting.
