In what can only be a carefully planned marketing attack to coincide with the recent bevy of Street Fighter IV information, Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike will be coming to GameTap on December 20. The bad news? It’s the Dreamcast version.
Wait a second — that’s not bad news! If you’re not one of those freaks that recorded and counted the frames in Dudley’s “Ducking Rush,” there should be no bad news. Unless, of course, you don’t use Gametap. That’s not even bad news, though — that’s just silly.
Let me level with you guys — as much as I played Street Fighter II and all of its incarnations, I’ve never had close relations with Street Fighter III. This was mainly due to the fact that the game came out while I was in college, living with a dorm full of people who I’d consistently trample in most video games. Without the competition, I never had the drive to put in the time to become proficient. But now I have the Street Fighter fever, and I’m looking for any suggestions on which character I should use.
I’m all ears.
