Correction: The Alpha 2 audio tracks featured in this episode are in actuality higher quality versions of the CPS2 tracks found on the official 1996 OST release and are not the Alpha 2 Gold versions we mention. Apologies for the mix-up, but you’ve gotta admit they still sound great.

  1. Alright, now just what the hell is going on here?? :^D

  2. I gotta say, I really don’t like it when a SF game comes out with all new themes for the characters.

    It’s one of the things I look forward to the most when a new SF game is coming is “How are they gonna remix those classic themes THIS time!” And when that happens, it always bothers me when I’m fighting a character, and their usual leitmotif isn’t playing.

    Don’t get me wrong, Alpha 3 has some great songs, but I still dislike the soundtrack BECAUSE those are just the wrong songs to me.

  3. Alpha 2 is still my favorite of the series but there’s something incredible about the Shin M. Bison boss battle at the end of Alpha 3. He has a special super meter (it’s not any ISM, it’s adorned with his logo) and at any time he can unleash one gigantic Psycho Crusher and slaughter you.
    AND THE MUSIC IS BEYOND ALL EXPECTATIONS I’m legit shocked it didn’t make the cut for this episode
