Is by far the best fighter since third strike. I am so fucking glad it exists, I just recently picked up the atomiswave kit and I have played nothing else since then.

What are your guys thoughts on it?

It seems like you are stronger in that game, than in any other fighter, if that makes any sense. Like being able to control kenshiro, and pounding a dude into the wall over and over again is the most empowering shit ever.

this game was a godsend - if there was one fighter begging to be made it was this one. and it came out on AW no less. what I'm interested in finding out about is the endings - what are they like?

All the endings are actually the same. There is some nice animation, but unfortunately there are no real personalized endings.

Fantastic game. Seems like you feel exactally the same way I do about it...came just at the last moment before I got burned out on 2d fighters. Third Strike was had pretty much lost it's charm for me...

I have owned the cp3 version for about 7 years and played it nearly every day. I am just kind of getting tired of it to be honest...

I don't know, it is the greatest fighter every there is no doubt about that, I am was just REALLY in need of something new.

Get back to me when you guys have played your cps3 thrid strikes a couple a few thousand hours.

Done & done ;)

I hear ya though. 3rd strike is always trump, however it is nice to peep quality 2d fighters (and even some 3d ones). Lately me and the crew have been heavy into Rival Schools 2 and Zero 3 upper. Dope ass titles...
