When you could Parry in Street Fighter Alpha 

Or zero fighters generation depending if you lived in Japan

M

yes the most wondrous being sagat having a move called tiger genocide

Only in anthology? ?, ¿ps2? . .

Si

I'm so mad I got the street fighter collection second hand, I could have not bought it at all and not have to look at it and seethe!

Me too, it was hype as hell to play with friends.

HSFA deserved to be releseased with online mode like Capcom did years ago with SF3, Marvel, DS, etc.

@@carlosaugusto9821 with rollback

Fightcade. Only thing is all characters aren't available

I think one of the best Street Fighter games ever to not be made is the alpha series plus parries You would literally have everything

Yeah, lazy readers! Just clear all games with one round and on easiest difficulty to save your time to unlock it.

People so bad at this

Really street fighter alpha on ps2

Oh yeah st fighter Alpha anthology on ps2

I had street fighter alpha anthology and I new nothing about this smh 🤦🏿‍♂️

It even ported SNES Alpha 2's tracks into the game

My dream classic SF compilation would contain Hyper SF2, Hyper SFA, and the never-before-seen Hyper SF3. Each based on the final iteration's UI (SSF2T, SFA3U, SF3TS respectively), allows you to choose characters from the previous editions of the particular iteration, and gives you the option of three soundtracks from each of the editions. Too bad creative directing of the SF series IP was handed to Capcom USA after the completion of SFAA, ensuring that we'll never get any of these in-house developed masterpiece collections, and are relegated to lazy outsourced emulation-based ROM cash-grabs.

Um video link pls i wanna see this

how was the MVC-ism?

Yep despite the lack of World Tour this is the Ultimate version of Alpha 3. It's perfect and all the characters look right. No Mugen looking CVS 2 characters added

@@sdlock83 Capcom also needed to make a definitive 2d MvC, that polished the MvC2 system; added the stages and music from all older games; and had a Smash Bros-like Sandbox mode where you can set up a lot of things including old gimmicks like MSH gems; and had a 3v3 Dramatic Battle mode; and all giant bosses fully playable with a proper moveset... like Snk did with bosses in KoF 02UM. And about the HSF3 idea, i would also add: new parry mini games, Dramatic Battle mode; KoF-like 3v3 mode; Sandbox mode where you can set up a lot of stuff like change meter sizes and stocks, and add other Capcom fg mechanics like universal Custom Combo (basically everybody with Genei Jin), Alpha Counter, etc. Capcom just stopped caring in the mid 2000s, but they could still have used their 90's fg's some more for very necessary compilations or definitive editions. MvC and SF3 really needed it.

@@clutchkace No wonder capcom wants to go back to "zero"

@@clutchkace how?

@@clutchkace Thanks!

I'm fairly certain that the parry stance simply reuses existing frames of animation.

@@CDages he's talking about the parry light blue spark animation itself

That's cool stuff, thanks for sharing mate

Actually, it's the frames of Alpha Counter or Air Blocking

Counter start up frames. It ain’t that deep

It was a hidden game on the Ps2 port of Alpha Anthology.

@@biglex42 There is no "port" of SFAA lol! SFAA on the PS2 was the one and only... the last SF hurrah of Capcom Japan before handing the IP off to Capcom USA.

@@sdlock83 I call it a port because they aren’t arcade perfect.

@@sdlock83 actually it isn’t a secret at all. It’s PlayStation one SFA 3 world tour mode. You could find different abilities and disable different abilities. It’s back when game developers loaded the games up with cool goodies.

Where can we get a copy of this? ahhhhhhh

Yeah, it only used like, 1-3 of the backgrounds to make room for the BGMs and character variants. You could at least pick A2/A2G Sakura and get her BGM going!

it drove me nuts that they threw out all the stages with each version of SFA. There were stages in Alpha and Alpha 2 that were awesome sights.

​@@TonyTheTGRWhich makes no sense, since they were already on the disc anyway for the other subgames. I guess each subgame required its own duplicate assets and couldn't access the other ones' stuff for some reason.

Alpha 2 and Alpha 3 are actually completely different games. Even sf3 2i and 3s are very different from each other.

@@vodkagobalsky yeah I know but like I said, different mechanics and different methods of play.

I've been saying this for years.

I like the parry mechanic myself.

Big facts and agree. I personally love SFV and the Alphas the most then SF3 then 4. .

If I remember correctly I think it was hidden or some kind of cheat code on the Anthology

You had to win the 3 alphas to unlock Hyper.

it doesn't even have the extra characters :(

@@justinkelley7288 Hyper X does and every version of that character from SF2, SF3, SFAG, all the up to alpha 3. The only thing it does not have is Alpha max characters from psp which would not fit considering their assets are from completely different engines.

When you choose a character, it'll ask if you want Normal, Mazi, Saikyo, or Classic. For this version, I think you highlight Mazi, hold select and press (1P Left, 2P Right) to scroll off of that selection (it won't show) and then choose it. Normal = Green-ISM (SFA1-style with chain combos), Mazi = Blue-ISM (this, basically X-Ism with 3S Parries and Special/Super Cancels), Saikyo = Red-ISM (changes animations of certain special moves, most noticably characters from MvC2 or Final Fight), Classic = World Warrior-ISM (busted SF2 WW scripts/damage; only applicable to the OG 12 in that game).

that would require smart capcom something that has been on vacation for too long

@@ricardoredway it's crazy to think that the 30th Anniversary collection dumbed down Alpha 3, when they could have released this on the newer systems and made a killing! I don't know ANYONE that wouldn't buy this game again in a heartbeat.

@@chinwenduizenwata6763Now at least we will finally get Alpha 3 Upper with the release of Capcom Fighting Collection 2. I still hope that some day they will also rerelease Alpha 3 MAX, Hyper Alpha and Alpha 2 Gold.

that wasn't a parry, that was the alpha counter function from the alpha games

You got every version of SF 2 and 3 with netplay and art galleries + music and that’s barebones to you?

@@Jetanium “Every”… well, where’s HSF2?

@@clutchkace But we just saw it at 0:54 Am I missing something?????

@@maximoleon3110 That's S-ISM A (any can be performed). It is not S-ISM B (can parry, but uses only SSF2T super move)

sadly, you can't in this bonus mode. Anything happen in Hyper Street Fighter Alpha, stays in that game for good.

Yeap, Capcom actually gave a shit back then and didn't just outsource barebones emulation

Arcade perfect port of Alpha 3 upper.

It would have been great if Capcom at that time still cared enough to make a definitive edition, with that same mindset, for SF3

Never heard of this until now, I had the psp version

Best Street Fighter for casuals who do not want to learn you mean.

Should've got this game when I seen it in a store back in 07-08

@@StatiCRjm should’ve got her number too

Space constraints of the PS2 hardware!!

@@TonyTheTGR Except that they were already present in the other games in the collection, so why they couldn't just load them in Hyper is beyond me.

OMG THATS WHAT I SAID !!!!!!!

@@clutchkace dopeeee my fav definitely was alpha 2 gold though. Survival mode in alpha 3 was intense

Guy’s master Zeku is the original Strider.

Awesome ikr btw how old are you?

It's best that the FGC keeps their grubby mits away from this game. Otherwise, they'll chase away the casuals there, too.
