Is third strike as bad as the reviews say?

[CHUD Josie]

There's a few reviews saying that there's some major issues with combos not coming out properly in third strike, have these been fixed or is it still an issue?

Well...I loved 3rd Strike (my favorite game on this collection), and I didn't have any issues with combos.

Nah 3rd Strike is fine on this game. It's really the only game I play in the collection. I wish more people played it online, but the online is pretty janky in this game anyway. It will be good for versus play on your laptop at a local or with friends or something. My favorite version of 3rd Strike is the Online Edition one I have for my PS3. I still play to today and get matches in Ranked mode from time to time. Graphics look great and I like the speed it's running at.

The issue is it isn't the 3rd strike online edition which is actually a semi remastered version with HD artwork and an internal filter that allows the game to look amazing on LCD screens.

This game basically uses stolen emulator code from the web and basically Roms you can download free online. Which is why nobody fell for this as fightcade is far more active and superior to this cash grab.

The only redeeming factor would have been the 3rd strike online remastered edition but that is not in this because its a lazy port.

PS2 port of 3S its still the best, at least don't have lag input of Dreamcast but PS3/360 OE have Trial modes and if they update 30th Anniversary with OE bonus will be the best port
