This is a nice fighting game bundle. Most people probably already have various versions of SFII, but this one is one of the better ones to have.

I wouldn't be surprised if they finally sneak in a new d-pad with the Xbox redesign that seems to be in the works. But like mentioned above, a stick is really the way to go with fighting games. I think all of the current standard controllers suck equally for fighters because of the button layout. Triggers and shoulder buttons ruin it more than anything for me.

A good price for a great collection of Street Fighter games

Its worth it, for SF Third Strike alone...

Did you guys get this directly from Amazon as the seller? There are two $15.90 priced items from 3rd party sellers that are fulfilled by Amazon. Bought anyways since it doesn't really matter.

Those aren't big changes?

Ken is actually a replicant of Ryu

It's not enough to make them unplayable (and hardly noticeable in most games), but it's enough to kill the flow of a really tight fighting game like GGXX or SFIII. If you want to play PS2 fighting games, on your PS2 is still the best way to do it.

This is the first time I've heard about b/c lag on PS3. I've certainly never noticed, in fighting games or other games. I've played everything from PS1 Tekken to BB and SSFIV on my PS3 with friends. We don't play 'competitively' its just for fun, and we've never had any problems. And usually I bring out the PS1/PS2 Tekken games, SC2, GGXX#R, and VF4E just to kind of laugh at what I used to consider to be amazing graphics.
But what I have noticed, is that all my PS2 games look better through PS3 b/c than they do on PS2, and I still keep PS2 games in my regular game rotation. In fact I finally got the PS2 version of CVS2, my fav fighter, yesterday and immediately noticed that the smaller text was easier to read and I noticed subtle graphical details that I never noticed before by playing via PS3. That being said, I hope Sony makes b/c universal via PSN or something because I'm kinda paranoid that my PS3 will crap out on me like my 360 did, and I'll be stuck without a b/c PS3.

Bought this on my Xbox at release. Love it. And yes, the anime movie is on the disc as well. =]

Well it's there, been tested and proven.

I recently got this from Goozex for Xbox but the disc arrived not working.. got my credits back but bummed out that I'm missing out on the game.

That was incredibly random and wildly off-topic.

I could use some Edward James Olmos though...is he also in the Street Fighter movie?

You can find the PS2 version @ TRU (where I got my copies) for $10 or less, which is a total steal.
