Game Overview

Featuring characters playable in Street Fighter II, Street Fighter II Champion Edition, Street Fighter II Hyper Fighter, Street Fighter II: The New Challengers, and Super Street Fighter II Turbo, the latest collection is about as robust as it can get for a SF fan outside of a new game.

The Bottom Line

To commemorate the 15th birthday of its world renowned street brawler series, Capcom presents Street Fighter Anniversary Collection. Comprised of two distinctly different chapters in the SF videogame universe, Anniversary Collection includes Hyper Street Fighter II (a blend of all five Street Fighter II titles with multiple character variations) and Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike. Offering five different soundtracks, multiple voice tracks, and various different modes of play, Street Fighter Anniversary Collection also contains the full U.S. DVD version of the 1994 film, Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie in addition to adjustable gameplay rules.
