So looks like we won’t be seeing a re-release of any kind any time soon.Such a shame for people whose only option is console.
To be frank, the only way this game can go is down; and it’s not like they want to make changes, right now their cash cow and focus is SF4.
If anything, ANYTHING happened at all to this series of SF3 games, you should be thankful. Any attention at all. Because right now we don’t have the luxury of being selfish.
the only thing i’d like to see is make it possible to be played on an HD TV with out lag and stay the same mechanically as the arcade version (not ps2/DC/xbox) that way no one in the evo commitee has a reason to deny it at evo.
Hell no.
Capcom fears SF III 3rdStrike re release they know many ppl wouldnt get SSFIV if a re release of III came out.
This thread needs to die already. Is it possible to request a lock? This shit has been going in circles for pages. The idea of someone tampering with 3rd strike is bad, but this thread is even worse.
What difference does it make even if it goes on thru infinity?
3rd Strike is a forgettable 7 am tournament game.
fail
It was 9am.
LOL Double post
seth krillin: time to count the money i made from 3rd strike death IM RICH BITCH
The way he sees it, he can finally compete as well. There’s a reason 4 feels like it’s tailored for horrible players. It’s because it is, look who helped.
Street Fighter 3.4? wtf!? o.0 that would be ridiculous
I like how SF4 fans point out the balance issues of 3s like SF4 doesn’t have the same issues. Blanka vs. Rog, Gief vs Seth is worse than almost any matchup in 3s.
That’s like saying look at the match with Gill vs so, and so. Seth is banned in most tournaments. Not saying SF4 is balanced, however.
I haven’t been to any tournaments in which Seth is banned.
Well, he should have been. Like you said, when a Gief players makes it to the finals only to face a Seth, so fair, and balanced, right?
seth isn’t that great. land one combo and he’s dizzied. if he stays out of trouble and reacts to everything you do perfectly then he wins. no one will be higher than sagat in that game. imo it goes:
-sagat
-ryu
-rufus
-akuma/zangief/boxer/seth
-chun/blanka/dictator/dhalsim
-viper/able/honda/ken
-camy/gen/fei
-gouken/fuerte/ken/guile
-claw
-absolute shit tier: dan/sakura/rose
the major difference when comparing character balancing in sf4 vs 3s is that 3rd strike isn’t so matchup specific. personally i prefer this after being a blanka player in sf2. when you constantly have lopsided matches it gets boring and you can’t get creative. everything becomes reactionary so it’s basically waiting for someone to jump in or do a punishable move on block or hit. 3s is much more guess heavy which leaves a lot more up in the air. i like this but people who are so used to the old sf games are going to like match up specific fights better. for example, i’ve listed blanka around high tier because he has good tools against most characters. however, against dhalsim, boxer, and honda he has an uphill battle. at least 6/4 imo in those match ups ( not so much against honda) but against sagat he has an easier time.
in 3s, match ups aren’t so lopsided. genei jin isn’t going to be stopped by anyone, chun’s low forward isn’t going to get punished unless it’s a mirror match, etc… pretty much anyone on the tier list in 3s is better than the name under them in most cases but that’s definitely not the case in sf4/sf2.
in sf4 you don’t have many different styles of play and especially in certain match ups. in 3s you can cater to your own style and tendencies a bit more making it a more enjoyable experience imo.
far hp is fast as shit though!
