Unlike the dismal Street Fighter III, this Alpha makes counting to "three" a pleasure. Longtime Alpha and Street Fighter fens will find Alpha 3 a welcome addition to their gaming libraries. The only ear-sore is the game-show announcer, who spouts such teeth-grinding phrases as "Beat 'em up, guy!" and "Triumph or die!" Fortunately, the powerful music perfectly suits every fight and keeps the action going. Sonically, all the smacks and yelps are clearly audible. And even when the screen becomes crammed with splashy super and special moves, the graphics never crap out into a choppy mess. The graphics retain most of the sprite frames from its arcade big brother with only a few minuscule visual W trims. The home version of Alpha 3 faithfully translates the majority of the arcade version's key elements.

The most noteworthy are the World Tour mode, in which you travel the globe and gain new abilities with each defeated foe, and the Dramatic Batde mode, in which you share the screen with a buddy for a two-on-one gang-up-against-your-computer-opponent fest In addition, 31 fighters fill the regular lineup-the most fighters of any game in the SF series, Alpha or otherwise-including three PlayStation-exclusive battlers: Fei Long, T Hawk, and Dee Jay. Alpha 3 truly excels with its plethora of extra play-modes.
