Naw, Alpha Anthology is actually a really rad collection if you like the games (I personally prefer other Capcom fighters to the Alpha series, but whatever). Each of the games is, as far as I can tell and have heard, exactly arcade perfect. No load times at all once you're in a game. The games even have all the classic bugs and exploits present in the arcade versions plus a dipswitch menu that lets you toggle them on and off to your liking. It's pretty clever and really what Capcom needs to do with all of their fighting game compilations. If only there was an equally-good compilation of Street Fighter 2 games on consoles...

(And no, Street Fighter Anniversary Collection is not one.)

The fact that there is a question is the insulting part.

So you're telling me Capcom managed to release an exact copy of two games that they have already made? And they added the ability to toggle the glitches? Shit, I take it back. A+ effort.

That's the Japan way these days. No, I'm not dissing the game...just saying that it really didn't take a lot of effort to bring this to us.

I didn't know people still did this.

Yes, they did exactly what the hardcore fighting game fans want. And there are five games on the disc, not two.

You forgot the ultra super mega alpha 3 with different isms.

True, plus June was a slow as fuck month for me.

Alpha Anthology. I can't describe how bro it is to play Alpha 2 in near arcade perfect form on home. The closest we've ever had to this was the Saturn version.
