It’s been 15 years since you first pumped your allowance into the Street Fighter machine at the local 7-11 and unleashed fireballs, spinning bird kicks, and toxic chili farts on your opponent. Now it's time for a stroll down memory slain. Anniversary Collection includes the 2-D fighting games Hyper Street Fighter II (a compilation of three other Street Fighter titles) and Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike. The film Street Fighter II Anime is thrown in, too (though, sadly, not the so-bad-it’s-great movie with Jean Claude Van Dam and Kylie Minogue). For the casual player, this is archaic stuff that’ll provide about an hour of nostalgic fun. But real gamers will be looking for more, like the rush from playing Street Fighter for the first time or a woman to finally share an anniversary with. (Chun-Li Zang doesn't count.)
