Street Fighter Alpha 3

If your looking for a decent 2D fighting game look no further!

This portable version emulates the original arcade version perfectly.

The graphics are REALLY good and there absolutely no slowdown even with with 3 fightrs on the screen (More on that later!) and the special moves have some awseome particle effects.

The Sound is really lame. It doesn't push the GBA at all and it sounds like your playing a Game Boy Color game at times. It does get the job done though which is the main thing.

The Gameplay is fantastic it plays EXACTLY like the arcade version. The special moves have amazing particle effects and there is even a mode where you can fight 2 opponents at the SAME TIME!! I thought it wouldn't work. I mean how can you block 2 characters standing either side of you? I works though and when you start pulling off combos which involve hitting both opponents at the same time you will love it!

With 36 characters in the game there is plenty to come back to and there are also loads of unblockable modes. Multiplayer is equally awesome but sadly it requires one cart per player.

Overall this game plays flawlessly and is without doubt the best 2D fighter on the GBA.
