Well the Alpha series is considered completely separate from the SF2 series so I don't know why there'd be any contesting there...o.pwuaioc wrote:What about Street Fighter II v. Turbo v. Super v. Alpha?Cronozilla wrote:You should cheat and count variations in the same spot.
The only time two in a spot is annoying is if they're entirely different titles and they're like "lol tie".
But if you're making a list and Super Mario Bros. 3 comes up, it should be all incarnations of Super Mario Bros. 3. Metroid should include Zero Mission, etc.
I think maybe it's important to remember the reason you want to make the list in the first place ... nitpicking iterations or version differences is likely not the goal.

I was abbreviating, and thinking of Alpha 2 v. Alpha 3. I may still be wrong, since I'm not really familiar with the Alpha games. Point about SFII still stands, though.AppleQueso wrote:Well the Alpha series is considered completely separate from the SF2 series so I don't know why there'd be any contesting there...o.pwuaioc wrote:What about Street Fighter II v.

Alpha 1-3 are basically all upgrades building onto the same core game, just like Super/Turbo is just buliding onto SF2. Well, technically Alpha 3 has different endings and story setups or whatever so story-wise it's more of a sequel to Alpha 2, but who actually cares about the story in Street Fighter?o.pwuaioc wrote: I was abbreviating, and thinking of Alpha 2 v.

But yeah I get your point, just being nitpicky.
