News: Capcom digs deeper into the Street Fighter archives.
With Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max just days from release Capcom has announced Street Fighter Alpha Anthology for the PS2. Scheduled to ship this Summer, SFAA will collect all three Street Fighter Alpha titles (and SFA2 Gold) and Pocket Fighter (known here as Super Gem Fighter Mini-Mix).
Street Fighter Alpha brings together a cast of 13 characters from the collective Street Fighter universe. The series' inaugural title introduces super combos and alpha counters to add a new dimension to fighting. Street Fighter Alpha 2 ups the ante with 18 fighters and several new options including high and low Alpha counters as well as more moves and combos for each character. In addition, the second title launches the Custom Combo system which lets players use up a super meter to perform devastating multi-hit combos. Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold is an enhanced version of the previous game featuring different versions of some of the characters. The most robust entry, Street Fighter Alpha 3, includes an unprecedented 25 characters and offers players the choice of three УismsФ fighting styles made popular in previous Street Fighter games. Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix rounds out the anthology with miniature versions of popular Capcom fighters in fierce battles. Combatants vie to collect power-up gems as they perform an array of special attacks and powerful combos.
Each version of Alpha will sport the following modes:
Arcade Mode pits competitors against a series of CPU controlled opponents in order to beat the game.
Versus Mode allows two players to choose among the cast of characters for intense head-to-head battles.
In Training Mode fighters can practice special moves and combos to hone their skills.
Survival Mode and Battle Mode (which allows 2-on-1 tagteam matches) will also be featured for each Alpha.
Sadly, online play doesn't appear to be in the cards for SFAA, but we'll keep you posted.
