Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike (ストリートファイターIII サードストライク) is the third and final update to Street Fighter III and was originally released in arcades before being brought to the Sega Dreamcast. Dreamcast users can play the previous two versions of Street Fighter III with Street Fighter III: Double Impact.

For years this was the only chance to play this versions of Street Fighter at home. Later it was also ported to PS2, Xbox, PS3 and Xbox 360.

Gameplay

3rd Strike was the third and final release in the Street Fighter III series. All characters got new moves and the behaviors of existing moves were modified (reach, strength, speed etc.). Throws, Overhead Attacks and Personal Actions (Taunts) are now activated by pressing two buttons simultaneously. The series unique parry maneuver can now also be performed while guarding, which results in a red flashing effect. The resulting maneuver is called a red parry.

Characters

New and returning characters joined the cast:

  • Chun Li
  • Twelve
  • Makoto
  • Q
  • Remy

Versions

This is not merely one of the most interesting ports ever, but one of the most interesting games ever, simply due to the "System Direction" menu. This special options menu allows you to customize numerous aspects of how the game works. The later 3rd Strike Online Edition also contains this menu. Aside from that, this port has a remixed soundtrack and the final boss Gill was made playable (same as Double Impact).

The PAL version supports 50Hz and 60Hz modes.
