A New Generation of Parrying 

Agreed. If you keep doing supers the game makes you stay there. It happens at 5:05 in the Sean clip.

I think it’s neat. It’s like the characters use all their focus and their environment doesn’t matter; only the fight and their opponent

Reminds me of darkstalkers lol

New Gen was originally going to be a Darkstalkers game supposedly. The super flash and some of the stages make a lot more sense that way

Pretty much every capcom fighting game from 96 to 05 did that. I miss it

Dudley Mobius XD

No one can say it's unbalanced then. :)

Sounds lame.

What’s strange about 3rd strike is how most stages have no spectators, it feels empty and soulless.

Let me play third strike with these stages​@@mikeg2491

Why are these stages missing in Third Strike?

@@MrStalyn space reasons. More characters = less space for streets, less space for npcs

The older SF3 versions are better than Third Strike in some non gameplay aspects. Stages are one example.

In earlier games it was also a bit more like a block

I actually like the sound effects and audio in NG and 2I much more than 3S. The announcer is cooler and more dramatic, the sound effects you hear on KO have more impact and just overall...when I first played New Generation in the arcades, the visuals were obviously godlike but the SOUND is what really blew me away. It really FELT like a real Street Fighter sequel to 2, everything was so new and impactful! 3S has aspects about it that are great but in the audio department it really felt like a downgrade...OTHER then the parry sound, I agree it sounds much more satifisfying than the parry sounds in 2I!!

IT PERRY!

Poor Alex in general. Randomly sounds like post-whitening Michael Jackson in this game whenever he supers.

yeah and his main character stage is stolen by Luke

Also Third Strike removed some fun details like stage transitions (between rounds), that existed in these first games.

the microwalks make it at least somewhat challenging, but yeah its still funny asf

You can't escape! *escapes*

While I love 2nd impact nearly as much as 3s, a new generation never clicked with me -very small roster consisting of characters I don't care about imo -lack of ex moves -weakest soundtrack in the 3 series

3 is still my fave SF of all time. I was skipping school with my buddies back in either 1999 or 2000 and went to a mall an hour away and found 3rd Strike and MvC 2 right next to each other and we were thrilled. I had never seen any version of SF3 before and fell in love with the whole presentation.

​@@MrMeat-jv1hxweakest soundtrack in the series, yet it has my favorite versions of both Dudley and Ibuki's themes (as much as I love "You Blow My Mind")

2nd Ampact?

@@intensellylit4100 lol! Don't know where tf that came from but I sure was confident in it huh 😅

The fact is that 3S is actually the different one compared to the other two. You are saying things in a kind of inverted logic because you got to know the early games later. We could say 3S belongs to a kind of new movement in Capcom fg direction in the late 90s to make things "pop out" more and look more different than past works. The way i see it, that new direction also includes examples like: the unique much more expressive art style of SFA3, that stands outs a lot compared to the similarity between A1 and A2 art styles; the unique presentation, overall vibe, ui design and music of CvS1 and MvC2, that is really different from the familiar "Capcom way" of doing things until then. If we pay attention, all these things were made between 98 and 00. That seemed to be a particularly more experimental period with presentation for Capcom's fg devs.

@@carlosaugusto9821dude they… know. They said that explicitly in their comment.

This is second impact, right?

Street Fighter 3 New Generation Arrange Album Jazzy NYC Latin Mix.

It's from the New Generation Original Arrange album, it's the latin mix but a whole bunch of people worked on that

It's actual New Generation. You lose!

@@FelixMuk good call

Thankfully someone made a SF3 parry sound mod for SF6

Alex Theme Latin Mix

Well, in principle it was a good thing that a new yearly release had totally different stages. In SF2 that didnt exist, except like changing the time of the day in a new version. And in SFA each game have a different stage. And in Darkstalkers and the first two SF3 versions there are some repeated stages, and both DS3 and SF3 3S added completely new stages. That is actually cool... The only problem is that the new 3S stages in many cases are worse, or didnt improve anything. It's similar to SFA3, where many (not all) stages are worse than A1 and A2 stages.

@@carlosaugusto9821A3 stages are superior than A2 stages, those ones cause the game speed to be different on some stages. A3 doesn’t have this issue as much, if at all.

New generation, the first in the SF3 trilogy. After this is 2nd Impact and then 3rd Strike.
