    This game was definitely rushed to make it the first PS2 game ever. Gameplay is nowhere near as polished as the 2D SF games, some of the super moves look just silly. Graphics are very average for a 3D fighting game. The newer characters aren't really all that good, theres no endings for any of the characters either, unless you consider a few lines of text as a game ending. Sound is This game was definitely rushed to make it the first PS2 game ever. Gameplay is nowhere near as polished as the 2D SF games, some of the super moves look just silly. Graphics are very average for a 3D fighting game. The newer characters aren't really all that good, theres no endings for any of the characters either, unless you consider a few lines of text as a game ending. Sound is dissapointing too, as all the characters speak in Japanese. Could have been much better if more time was spent on it. Overall an above average fighting game. Not in the same league as other modern 3D fighting games and not as memorable as the classic 2D SF games.… Expand

    For fans only. Its a SF game with similar controls to the older games. It features bad graphics and sound. Menus are ugly and confusing. Basically, a forgotten Street Fighter game. While its better than SF:The Movie, and the tag team option is pretty fun, its still a D or C grade because of presentation. Even the cover art sucks. Probably not worth picking up because the new PS3 versionsFor fans only. Its a SF game with similar controls to the older games. It features bad graphics and sound. Menus are ugly and confusing. Basically, a forgotten Street Fighter game. While its better than SF:The Movie, and the tag team option is pretty fun, its still a D or C grade because of presentation. Even the cover art sucks. Probably not worth picking up because the new PS3 versions are flashier. Thats what I'd compare it to most. The 2d animated ones were still more popular than this at the time. If all you have is PS2, this is a playable game, and probably better than Tekken. Its just really aged and amateur on the surface. I doubt it uses the full processor. A disappointment, but there is a playable SF game in there which may make it worthwhile to SF fans only. I did have fun for a little bit, but this should have been a major release.… Expand

    Putting a 3D face on a 2D game just doesn’t cut it.

    Overall, this is definitely a decent 3D fighter, just it is too generic of a 3D fighter at times.

    A middle of the road fighter that lacks pizzazz and inspiration.
