Alpha 3 has too much juggling.

I agree but that's what makes it fun for me, however I love A2's custom combo push to the corner spam, I dunno...I just love cheese.

I have to get back on '98, haven't played KOF in a long time. Robah, Andy and Heavy D all the way!!!

This game is available on GGPO and Supercade if anyone wants to play. Here are a few videos on A3 V-ism (the site is a goldmine, but mostly for A2). Daigo's first trip to America was to play Alex Valle in A3. I'd like to run a tournament sometime before the end of the month and stream it, I think that would be fun.

So, How's everyone playing Alpha/Zero 3 - Alpha 3 has always been on of my favorite fighters so I've purchased quite a few different versions over time.

Right now I've got a couple different setups going:

1. PVM with the PS2 Alpha Anthology
2. Dreamcast version through a scanline emulator - haters gonna hate but I really like this version
3. The CPS2 board on my NAC

Im playing on the PVM with Alpha Anthology it's my only way at the moment. Not that that's bad or anything. I Wish I had the Saturn Version.

The whole idea behind this is ludicrous.

Can you create some sort of structure or guidline for people to follow here? Can you present what the actual concept/purpose of this "club" is?

Maybe it's just a way for the OP to justify owning his toys. Want to learn how to play Alpha 3? Go lurk on shoryuken.

I get that polls and popularity contests are fun, and people love casting a vote for the sake of it, but folks here barely contribute to game of the month clubs even when a clear criteria is presented i.e. score.

OP, maybe you should create a table for each character, and if someone miraculously presents any information (which will be something widely documented and universally known, no doubt), this thread can at least serve as some sort of rudimentary database.

I'm sorry, stuff like this just makes people on here look like idiots.

Considering that playing fighting games in single player is pretty retarded, and no one besides Craig has really shown any interest in playing versus.. I really don't know.

True, but I find playing 1 player on KOF98 more entertaining than SFA3. But my all time fave 1 player fighter would have to be SFZ2A.

So, can I play the SFA3 characters in MUGEN?


I kid. I just don't know what the point of this is. So...I just play a version of it? By myself? Upload a video of Sakura panty shots?

I really don't understand what's so confusing. The idea is simple. People pick a fighter of the month. They play the fighter of the month and talk about it. I never thought that when I started the thread that people would be in such dire need of direction. A good Fighting game is just fun. I mean, either if your trying to master a character's move set, training with the AI or if your playing with some buddies, it's an enjoyable experience.

Alpha 3 was a big favorite when I was younger. My buddies and I would met up almost every night and play the playstation port. Then, a few times a week we would go to the local arcade and try our hand at beating the talent in the area. Those where good times, we where all working and going to school. We would all get together at around 10pm and the arcade was open to 3am.

I used to exclusively play with Rolento. He was a great match against people that used Ryu and Ken. Sadly, I really suck with him these days. Recently, I've been playing mainly with Sakura and Akuma.

I would love to get some versus going. What's the deal with SUPERCADE ebinsugewa?

I love using Balrog and Rolento in this version. Their combos can be devastating if you know how to use them.

Yeah, not really sure what's so confusing about it. Similar in concept to a book club, but with video games and no old ladies. Play the game, talk about and discuss the game.
