About this game
The second updated version of Street Fighter III which adds new characters (Makoto, Q, Remy, Twelve, and the return of Chun-Li), new music, storylines, more super arts for each character, a grading system, a manual throw system, and path selection.
The most significant change is the introduction of the guard parry, which helps defend against multi-hit combos.

The Dreamcast port additionally offers a training record option where a certain move or combo can be recorded and used against the player over and over to see how it can be parried.
A "system direction" option is also included, allowing the customization of many aspects of the game (air-blocking, combo limits, etc.).
The subsequent PlayStation 2 version would include all these features, as well as a choice between arcade and Dreamcast soundtracks.
The game would later get an Online Edition port.
Besides adding online multiplayer, the game also has HD-filtered graphics,, YouTube replay sharing, new art, a new Trials mode, and challenges which earn the player Vault Points, which is needed to unlock bonus materials.
About PlayStation 2
The PlayStation 2 (2000) is the best-selling game console in history, with a library exceeding 9,000 titles that spans everything from budget shovelware to genre-defining classics. That massive volume means PS2 collecting is accessible and affordable overall, but a handful of low-print-run RPGs and cult titles have become genuinely expensive — a common pattern once a console's original audience grows up with disposable income.
Gamevaro tracks Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike - Fight for the Future for PlayStation 2 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike - Fight for the Future to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS2 release dates back to 2004.
