  • The SF series is really getting stale over the years.  I got Street Fighter EX 3, but got pretty bored after about two hours of playing.  The Super linking was stolen from MvC, and there's not enough dramatic battles to make things interesting.

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>When did you start noticing it getting stale? Was it around the 43rd one? Perhaps the 44th one?</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>SF3 was the last good one I remember, so probably about 5 years ago. (And no, SF3 was not the third SF game. There was a big block of games between SF2 and SF3.)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>But, the dramatic battles have merit, especially when your second character is set to manual. Then again, it's probably only a gimmick after a while.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>That's different, you can make sequels to platformers with no real changes since new levels and bosses are enough to warrant a new game. Not the case with fighters</div>
