  • Summary: The collection features direct arcade conversions of Street Fighter Alpha, Street Fighter Alpha 2, Street Fighter Alpha2 Gold and Street Fighter Alpha 3 which have never before been available together in one package. As an added bonus, the "pint-sized" Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix (also released on consoles as Pocket Fighter), is included which brings the total to five action packed games on one disc. All titles in the collection feature three core gameplay options. Arcade mode pits competitors against a series of CPU controlled opponents in order to beat the game. Versus mode allows two players to choose among the cast of characters for intense head-to-head battles. Fighters can practice special moves and combos to hone their skills in the training mode. Additionally, all four Alpha titles feature survival mode as well as a dramatic battle mode which allows 2-on-1 tag team matches. Street Fighter Alpha brings together a cast of 13 characters from the collective Street Fighter universe. The series’ inaugural title introduces super combos and alpha counters to add a new dimension to fighting. Street Fighter Alpha 2 ups the ante with 18 fighters and several new options including high and low Alpha counters as well as more moves and combos for each character. In addition, the second title launches the Custom Combo system which lets players use up a super meter to perform devastating multi-hit combos. [Capcom]… Expand

    This anthology presents gamers with arcade ports of four incredibly popular fighting games, for better or worse.

    So finally, after all these years, we have a gameplay-perfect home version of Alpha 3....and you even get every previous game in the series for free. [May 2006, p.44]

    Regardless of Street Fighter Alpha Anthology's gaming value, it does a wonderful job of showing how a fighting series evolves from a slow and skitchy brawler, to a fast and fluid fighter.

    I love this game, but since arcades are a dying breed there's no longer any head to head human competition. Thats what made this game so popular. The omission of online game for the playstaytion 2 series renders this game totally useless, Thus my rating of a 1. Just one more in the series collecting dust.… Expand
