how many street fighters are there?
Street Fighter (um...never played it)
Street Fighter II
Super Street Fighter II Turbo ("X" in Japan)
Street Fighter Alpha ("Zero" in Japan)
Street Fighter Alpha II
X-Men vs. Street Fighter (not out yet)
Street Fighter Gaiden (the 3D version of SF, not out yet)
Street FIghter III (not out yet)
That's almost as bad as Mega Man.  You know a company is sucking a game
for all it's worth when they have THREE different versions of the game
in development at the same time.

Indeed. This genre of video game was very popular before... but it kind
of died out. Metal Slug is the first great game of this style that has
come out for a LONG time...
Well, perhaps multi-player adds to the enjoyment of it, but I think it
can still be fun if played alone. It's true you don't get the
competitive spirit of rammin' your friend (or enemy) into the wall at
200MPH, but it's still fun to grap hold of the responsive steerin'
wheel, and slide into corners for all they're worth. =)

that appeared in the original SF2.  Also, Super Akuma.  There's Dramatic
Mode, Survival Mode, u can pick 2 different Sakuras.. and I heard there's 2
random  boxes, and Alpha (Zero) Counters takes 1 and 1/2 off the meter.
Hmm.. I  think thats all.  Also, I played SFZ2 for the PSX.. not bad, doesn't
take  forever to load, and u can pick Super Akuma!  His clothing is blue,
like the   SF2 Turbo Ken clothing color.  He's is basically Akuma but he
throws out 2  air fireballs (1 goes down like Alpha 2, the other goes like
SSF2T = cheap!),  all the supers (fireball, air, dragon punch) and his Raging
Demon goes so  damn fast and it also travels the whole screen.  I think it's
powerful than  the normal Akuma's (it took around 60%-75% while the normal
Akuma's is 40%- 60%,  and this is at the lowest damage level!)

To clarify I said it was a glitch. I don't thik that glitch should count as

exagerating but I was'nt impressed with it))..  Nobody played it all
the time I was there, so I can't really say much. People just pointed at it
and looked then passed on, kinda pathetic...

the demo, it still looks like mortal kombat style jerky movement.
