As a small child, I kept hearing about Street Fighter, the very first version played in the arcade rooms. I was curious to see how the game looked like. There was no Playstation back then, not even the acclaimed Nintendo Gameboy. Street Fighter kicked a*s from the first minutes of gameplay and maybe it was the fact that it was my first fighting game ever played. In 2000, Capcom pulled a pretty big rabbit out of the hat: Street Fighter EX 3 for the Playstation 2. The fans rejoiced, but it was more of a collection and remake of the previous game with little graphical improvements. For the fanatics, this will never matter as long as the game has Street Fighter in the title. Want to unlock some characters? Don't finish the game millions of times as we have the perfect solution:
