SNES version? :lol:

Anyway, I just played a PSP for the first time last night, and I had no problems with the d-pad whatsoever. The nub on the other hand.....

Then why buy it in the first place? I thought you already got it for PS2.

It is out isn't it?

Did you play Darkstalkers, though?

You got me there, I didn't... but just the "feel" of it seemed like it wouldn't be an issue. I know it's not raised up as much, but I never felt like I was "lifting up" from the d-pad, whereas I did with the nub.

Wrong and wrong. Press your PSP d-pad against that of a PS2's and you'll see they're the same size and rise up the same height. The main difference is that because the PSP surface is curved the center of the d-pad is more recessed then it is on the PS2 (the PSP d-pad is actually at a slight angle to compensate).

I don't understand all the Street Fighter Alpha 3 hate here. I think it's a darn good game. The cast of characters is large, but not unwieldy, and there's a good mix of familiar faces as well as a few new characters to learn.

I've already invested lots of time in the PlayStation and Game Boy Advance versions of this game. I look forward to trying this new PSP version!

Street Fighter Alpha 3 is a busted piece of shit that should be flung into space for the crimes it has committed against humanity.

When the second player is capable of feats that the first player, who is playing the exact same character, is not capable of due to pure shitty programming, this is what we call piss poor design.

No other Street Fighter can make this claim. Hell, not even something like Time Killers can make this claim. Thus, Street Fighter Alpha 3 is the worst fighitng game ever made.

It's fun for the casual player :\

Wait, what?

I'm sure that someone can explain it far better than I can, but being the second player gives you certain hit properties that being the first player doesn't. I remember a lot of Rolento and Ryu bullshit coming off of this. I still don't understand how anything like that can happen.
