I'm not sure why everybody thinks this game is 3rd Strike mixed with Super Turbo.

It runs off the Street FIghter EX engine. If you have ever played SFEX in your life, go back to that series and you'll see what I am talking about. They took the normals, most of the supers, everything. THis is essentially Street Fighter EX 4 with hitboxes.

The ONLY thing 3rd Strike like is the fact that you THROW with Jab and Short, and you have access to EX moves.

Other than that, it's Street Fighter EX 100%. The problem is, most people skipped the EX series, but if you stick a 4 on this title, everyone jumps up and plays it because of the hype not realizing they were set up with SFEX all along...
