- TRIVIA -


This is the first Street Fighter game to adopt a rap/hip-hop urban theme.


Twelve's name is incorrectly spelt 'Tweleve' on the opponent selection screen. The mistake then appears again when the screen scrolls to display the next opponent choice.


Shin Akuma is present in the game code. Shin Akuma in 3rd Strike differs somewhat from his 2nd Impact guise. For a start, in 2nd Impact Shin Akuma had his own audio samples. In 3rd Strike, he shares Akuma's soundfile. His second Super Art is somewhat glitchy at times, and unlike 2nd Impact, he seems to have only 2 outfits. The blue color outfit is for Player 1, and the white colour outfit for Player 2. Both are hardcoded.


- UPDATES -


VER. 990512

* Ken Vs. Makoto neutral throw bug : If Ken defeats Makoto with his neutral throw (i.e. knee bash), the game will reset.

* Magnetic Storm graphical glitch : P2 Yang has 'Magnetic Storm' listed as one of his Super Arts instead of 'Tenshin-Senkyutai'.

* Unblockables : Certain characters (Urien, Oro) have moves/combos which are impossible to block.


VER. 990608

* Ken Vs. Makoto neutral throw bug has been fixed and doesn't reset the game.

* Unblockables are no longer unblockable.


- TIPS AND TRICKS -


* 6 Costume Colors : Highlight a fighter at the character selection screen and press one of the 6 buttons for the standard outfits (button 1 aka LP is the original color).


* Secret Colour : Highlight a fighter at the character selection screen and press LP+MK+HP.
