Capcom made the CPU easy on the consoles huh? Capcom Quest of Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold. The most complete version of the arcade classic.
As much as this update was released in the same year as the original, the port of Alpha Anthology (2006) has a single extra that made me play it.
Alpha 2 Gold even tried to balance Shotokans. Remember Jab and Short's combos? Here they received a little nerf, yet I still find Ryu, Ken and Akuma the Top Tiers...
Zero/Alpha Counters now consume a bar and a half. The problem is to guess when that half bar is full. I often tried to execute thinking I had enough bar and didn't have it. lol
That's probably why I played the console version, but the CPU was really nerfed, haahhaahhaha. I only had a little work on the boss fights. xD
The big news is being able to choose the Champion Edition versions of the all World Warriros. In this mode, the characters have no bar and no air defense.
Bison was the only character that I saw an advantage in using this mode. His jump arch works as in SF II and in addition we can spam Psycho Crusher \o/
Both Shin Akuma and Evil Ryu were already selectable in the console versions of Alpha 2. However, now you only need to press select (5x in the case of Shin Akuma) to choose your OP versions.
Alpha Anthology brought Cammy, not only playable in versus mode, but also in arcade mode. She is a nerfed version of her first appearance (X Men vs. Street Fighter) and was very well adapted here!
There are Survival mode and the return of Dramatic Battle, now with more fights! It's a better version than the first, but I decided to play this mode in the great Alpha 3. It will be awesome!
So, this is the CPS III. Interesting...
