you misspelled Shimomura, Yōko Shimomura
All the capcom fighters music went to shit after she left.
In SF4, the wild wild west song on the truck stage doesn’t make any sense. What were they thinking xD
Funny, I feel exact the same way for people who didn’t like it.
So… Guilty Gear? 
Anyway I agree 3S’s music fits very well with Street Fighter. Another great example Capcom Vs. SNK 2’s soundtrack.
I don’t like all the ultra techno blibbity bloo in IV, it’s too much.
This topic is full of hip-hop lovers (in a fighting game, even) AKA the downfall of society. Sad. 
Generally I don’t even like hip-hop, I just like good catchy music. B)
And I don’t think full on techno suits the game at all.
There were a few good Third Strike tunes, I’ll give you that. But the soundtrack in general sucks.
Are you 10 years old? Legit question because you should know better than to spew out such ignorance.
As someone who prefers rock, metal and a bit of jazz, I actually enjoyed the 3rd Strike soundtrack. The whole urban vibe that the rap themes gave off fit the game very well.
I know I’m at least 10 years older than you are.
You sure don’t act like it…
Agreed. You might want to revisit your redaction process. I’m not even attempting mockery, but the way you just say things ‘‘suck’’ without any backbone to your argument just makes it all invalid.
You have still not presented one reason as to why the 3rd strike soundtrack sucks. Nor does it really go with your hip-hop sucking comments. Most of the soundtrack can hardly even be considered hip-hop except for the title/character select themes.
To name all the tracks that are NOT hip-hop:
Jazzy NYC '99, Spunky, The beep, Kobu, Snowland, The Longshoremen, Beats in my Head, Crowded Streets, You Blow my Mind, Crazy Chili Dog, Psyche Out, Theme of Q.
That leaves only the menu and character select them. China Vox is disputable, in whether it’s hip hop or not.
I agree with this. Exactly what makes hip-hop “the downfall of society”? That borderlines on being racist.
Hip-hop is fine. Rap is problem.
I hope they have more hip hop in SF5.
I hope the announcer guy doesn’t make it in SF5. Seriously it gets annoying hearing that guy say the same thing over and over.
This is our jive, Street Fighter V.
Imagining that Luigi avatar doing some sort of unholy shimmy while hearing
Please send help.
The thing that made the 3rd Strike OST so awesome was that a lot of that music was still good outside of the game. That’s one of the few OSTs I’ve actually wanted to listen to when i wasn’t playing, and it also had a lot of character. It was completely different from the previous two SF3 games, but it wasn’t anything like SF2/Alpha either. When you hear those tunes, you know exactly where they came from because they’re the ONLY tunes in the SF musical canon that sound anything like that. Killing Moon to this day is one of my favorite pieces of game music. That’s a nasty lil’ slice of drum n bass!
