![]() ![]() ![]() The simple fact that Final Fight 3 is quite rare and commands a fairly high price tag on most auction sites makes its 800 Wii Point price tag quite a bargain for gamers who just can't get enough of Capcom's flagship beat-'em-up series. Sure some of the new additions might rub some gamers the wrong way, but it's difficult to fault Capcom for trying to liven things up a bit with an added layer of depth. Conclusionįinal Fight 3 is a fitting end to one of the more popular arcade series from the 16-bit era. Sure, there's still the bits of muffled voiced dialog fans of the series have come to know so well, but given that this was a mere 16-bit title, it's actually quite impressive how much audio goodness Capcom was able to squeeze into the game. There are plenty of up-tempo tracks to carry the intensity of the game and the sound effects are also pulled off impressively. ![]() The rocking soundtrack has long been a staple of the series and Final Fight 3 keeps up the tradition quite well. Given how well most other areas of the game are executed, it's difficult to complain over such a minor annoyance. Even the slowdown can't be fully blamed on Capcom given the Super Nintendo's pokey processor, but perhaps a few visual cuts here and there might have alleviated some of these instance. Capcom always had a knack for knowing just how far to stretch the series from a graphical standpoint and this final fight is certainly no exception. There's plenty of detail and variety in the various backdrops you'll fight your way through, and all four characters are drawn and animated well. Visually Final Fight 3 is fairly impressive, especially compared to previous entries. The play control itself is as smooth as it's ever been throughout the series, and despite some annoying slowdown in the two-player modes, the overall presentation easily lives up to its reputation as one of the all-time great beat-'em-up series and yet another intense Final Fight experience. There's no denying that the new additions definitely make the game a bit more playable, but this also might prove to be a double-edged sword for long-time fans of the series expecting a more traditional button-mashing experience. ![]()
