You should! It's GREAT. Still holds up after all this time, it used to be a mainstay on the tournament scene for like 5 or 6 years. I have one friend who comes over and we run the PS2 version like 50 matches at a time. It's got a killer soundtrack and presentation. The 3D backgrounds can be weird at first and the Alpha sprites look pretty bad in front of them (and Morrigan looks like a paper cutout) but it's so fun once you learn the grooves and find a team. Satisfying as hell to do damage in that game.

Yeah, the roster's enormous. You can play it like KOF Extra (S-Groove), KOF Advanced (N Groove) or Samurai Shodown/Garou (K-Groove).

Some of the SNK characters really shine in the Capcom grooves though, particularly A-Groove (custom combos). Ryo, Geese and Todoh are super fun there. When you play it at a casual level there are so many possibilities. It's just a good freakin' time.

It plays more like a Capcom fighter than an SNK fighter but if you experiment with the grooves, you're sure to find a playstyle that's comfortable for you.

Plus, even if you're not very familiar with the Capcom side, I'm sure you'll have fun trying some of them out. CvS2 was actually my first step down the path of KoF and other SNK fighters. I really enjoyed Yamazaki, which is probably why the world has decided to not put him in any more fighters. God forbid I should be happy.

My nigga, oh man Skullo was my favorite of the Alpha series.

I learned all his combos, could even Skullo Dream Alt Animation on command, and it got to where no one would play against me if it was EX or Alpha (Or my personal favorite, EX+@)

He was only followed by Doctorine Dark.

Ever since, I have only used Zangief, he's my favorite SF character. Haven't branched out to many other Fighters aside from Skullgirls, but I play Cerebella there.

Grapplers and up close no fireball characters were always fun to me, but I had the friends who said I was cheap just for using characters who are known for throws...

I don't have only one. It's these two.

I grew up with Strider's games and can't get over how awesome it is to have him fight all of Marvel and Capcom. He's one of the coolest designed characters in video games.

Morrigan was because of Darkstalkers 3. Her costume is brilliant, and I love how she formshifts various parts of it to create weapons. She's like a living swiss army knife. Between those aspects and her playful look/personality, I am always drawn to her in fighting games.

Strangely enough, I sort of ignore her sex appeal. I just find the character intriguing.

And I'm not against them doing that. Heck, I'm even fine with the SF approach where the characters are all 3D models but the game plays in 2D.

My issue is with the change in art style. They threw out the old super stylish look that the games used to have and replaced it with a far more cartoony one. I've seen some people liked the change, but personally I hated it. Fortunately though, I also didn't like the gameplay changes much either, and the old games are still great.

Alpha 3 was certainly at least fast-paced, entertaining, and not at all the plodding stiff shit SF has otherwise been.

SF save for A3 is like a chess game. A3 is a chess game where every piece is a queen - stupid but dumb fun.

Alpha 2 had various no meter infinites

Alpha 2 had unblockable glitch into 100% damage combos

Alpha 2 was one of the most unbalanced SF games ever made

V-ISM is much harder to use than CC from Alpha 2

Alpha 2 is dead while Alpha 3 still sees competitive play to this day, Alpha 3 even just got a re-release in arcades.

You know nothing about Street Fighter, stop talking.

Alpha 3 players can hug themselves on GGPO/Fightcade and show up on 4chan all they want. We all know Alpha 3 eats shit.

Alpha 2 is a dead game but it's ashes are still 100x more appealing than the corpse of Alpha 3.

The guy who unveiled it at the srk forums gave the impression that he created it wanting to give people who run the old ggpo stuff an easy time to switch over. I know when I installed it it was running all the shit I had for ggpo almost immediately.

Never got around to trying it out on my old laptop(it blew up).

Did anyone else, small tangent here, find it weird/have it happen to them that Windows 7 ran GGPO in vista mode and 8.1 runs it in 98 mode? Or was that just me?

>> No.2294835

Because GGPO uses an old version of FBA, and Fightcade is literally GGPO but reskinned.

The dudes say that they would have to start from nothing to make it work with a newer version of FBA
