Street Fighter Alpha 2

How did they get this running on a SNES?!


Genre: fighting - 1v1

Publisher: Nintendo

Year: 1996

System: SNES


Gameplay Score: 4

Gameplay Notes:

Massive roster of 18 fighters but no Guile! No Blanka! No Cammy! Very slow gameplay when Turbo is off Plays very well. Easy to pull of special moves. Really nice stuff


Level Design Score: 3

Level Design Notes:

Back to just story and versus modes The arenas are nice but they have very little animation.


Theme Score: 4

Theme Notes:

Same old stuff. I really miss Guile tho


Art Style Score: 5

Art Style Notes:

Unbelievable animation. I don't know how this is running on a SNES. The lack of animation in the backgrounds is a bummer but the spritework is incredible. The art style is exaggerated and cartoony compared to SF2 but it's nice all the same.


Audio Score: 3

Audio Notes:

Missing sounds on the map and in the post battle. Something had to be cut I suppose. Music is ok but not nearly as catchy as SF2 or other Capcom games. Good sounds although a bunch are missing.


Overall Score: 75

Review ID: 534
