About the Shaq Fu thing, I remember years ago a friend of mine had it and he really liked it, so we all ended up playing against him a lot even though none of us liked it much at all. That was fun in a Legend of Success Joe "OMG this is aweful" kind of way... so in the end I have played it far more than SF3.
I admit that I can understand (kind of) why people like the game and rate it so highly, but for me personally it is just so......... "blah". My reasons? Although I like some of the new characters, for the most part they are stupid. Gill? Urien? Q? Ewww, ewww and eww! It just feels like they made characters purely to show off how great the animation is, instead of ones that were actually good. The techno style music is horrible too, and I can honestly say I don't rate it much higher than KOF 2001's music. Street Fighter rap? Oh please! A remix of the James Bond music on Yangs stage? Nasty. And then the gameplay... I just don't like it for some reason... to me it just doesn't feel right at all and every time I play it, it just makes me long for SSF2 again, so I always end up putting that on after about 30 mins of playing SF3.
Anyways, I know the game is DEFINITELY not as bad as I make out and I do understand why people like it, it's just for my own personal tastes it is completely soul-less and about as much fun as sliding down a razor blade using your nuts as brakes
. And I am a Street Fighter fan, so it is weird that I don't like it...
