 Well It was a good one. It was the game that they left on at the
 stores so you could demo it. You know...

 That's exactly waht I meant. Each game has ONE little improvemnet of
 it's own. But there since fighters came out the biggest new feature
 was the FATALITY! You could say 3D, But they don't oplay in 3D, they
 just look 3D.
 Like in MACE, the background is sort of interactive. But it happens
 once in a blue moon. And it doesn't affect the gameplay. I'm not dissing
 them or anything.
 But look at it this way, ANd Look at capcom.
 Q: What is there new game?
 Street Fighter 3, street fighter meets X-men ultra turbo to the tenth
 power? What is so different from regular good old Street Fighter two.
 A: Souped up graphics and a few different combo moves. Ryu will never
 grow up. Oh yeah! Sorry. You can't forget the differnet ending.
