Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max

Capcom brings its fighting game classic, Street Fighter Alpha 3, to the PSP.

Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max will be a direct conversion of the arcade game it's based on, Street Fighter Alpha 3, with some new tweaks.

For those unfamiliar with Street Fighter Alpha 3, the game runs on an 'ism' system. You can choose from A-ism, V-ism, or X-ism, each a different way to perform a series of powerful combos.

There are nine modes from which to choose. Of the nine, there are a few eye-catching ones. Variable Battle enables for real-time tag-team fighting. Similar to Marvel vs. Capcom 2, tagging out will have your second fighter come in with a jump attack. There's also a Wi-Fi functionality that lets you play against others under the League Battle. In Dramatic Battle, you can team up with the CPU to fight, and in Final Battle, you can practice fighting against the final boss.

In addition to the original Alpha 3 crew, there are four new characters: Yun (Street Fighter 3 series), Maki (Capcom vs. SNK 2), Eagle (original Street Fighter), and Ingrid (Capcom Fighting Evolution), each with their own original storyline.

Hailed for its selection of characters, in-game balance, and storyline, Street Fighter Alpha 3 is a definite fighting game classic, and it looks like it will only be made better by Capcom's modifications for the PSP version.
