The Street Fighter 3 series soundtrack was straight fire, filled with tunes seemingly inspired by hip-hop. Third Strike was my first experience with Street Fighter 3 and I absolutely loved it. It wasn't until recently when I discovered how good the New Generation and 2nd Impact: Giant Attack soundtracks are. That's also when I discovered this little gem from 2nd Impact.
It usually plays when you're fighting Sean, often regarded as a garbage character. While the level of suckage he achieves is debatable, there's no doubt that this track isn't apart of that suckage. If they ever bring Sean back as a playable character, this should be his theme. They'll probably opt to use The Longhorseman instead, a pretty good track itself, but I'll pray for this.
This song reminds me of a hot summer afternoon. Laura's rollerblading down the street. Zangief and Elena living next door to each other, taking out trash and meeting in the front yard, then having an impromptu fight. Uh oh! Looks like my hypernerdiness is showing.
Anyway, it's a pretty good song and should come back whether or not Sean returns or uses it. Agree? Disagree? Got a game song you'd like to share? Comment and have your voice heard.
