We have seen Collector’s Editions in the past which cost over $100 and seeing the content that Capcom is offering for $150 here, we actually think that this is a very reasonable deal. Their Collector’s Set for Street Fighter will include a total of 15 discs, a statue of Ryu, an art book and also a replica of Ryu’s belt.

The discs in question are a combination of soundtracks and previous games. The soundtracks cover the entire Street Fighter franchise which is pretty cool in itself for video game music lovers, whilst the games on offer include Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix, Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike (online edition), Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition and wait for it, Street Fighter X Tekken as well.

What’s even better is that the SSFIV and SFXT discs will come with all character and costume DLC, including the characters that are currently locked away on console for Street Fighter X Tekken. Finally, you’ll also get a Blu-Ray containing documentaries, anime movies and the original Street Fighter 2: Animated Movie which is quite a watch.

Did we mention that the Ryu statue lights up as well? All that can be yours in September for $150. The big question that most of you are asking now though is whether the package is worth it or not. You could argue that most Street Fighter fans already own the games that Capcom are offering and if they are celebrating the 25th anniversary of Street Fighter, then shouldn’t the company be including the original Street Fighter game and the likes of Street Fighter II Championship Edition as starters? That would probably make the package much more appealing, but we’re guessing it would take too much time and effort for Capcom to include the original games that made the franchise famous.

What are your thoughts on the Collector’s Set folks? Would you have liked to see some more game content as well? There’s no Alpha games either which may be disappointing to a lot of you.

The classic game is available for owners of the iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad and is currently on sale until the end of today. With the addition of the two new characters provides users with 22 different ones to choose from. This classic retro title also has the addition of Wi-Fi for playing against other gamers, and battle against fighters from opposite ends of the earth to try and win the illustrious ‘World Warrior’ title.

Players are offered the classic 2D Street Fighter layout but with additional 3D camera touches. There is a unique four-button control system that has been designed for the title, and gamers will find a selection of new special moves and features that have been integrated into the game.

Other great features of the game include play your friends via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, fully customizable Visual Pad control system allowing the D-pad to be anywhere on the screen, special avatar bonuses can be unlocked playing VS matches, and much more.

There a whole host of moves a player can make including EX Moves, Super Combos, Ultra Combos, and Unique Attacks. Street Fighter IV VOLT can be found on the App Store for only $2.99/£1.99 but the price will go up tomorrow. iOS 4.2 or later required.

This is of course the ultimate question, one which is sure to divide many over whether the Street Fighter games are simply the best fighting games in history, or if the more violent Mortal Kombat series satisfy you more.

If you like video games and grew up during the 90s, there is a very high possibility that Street Fighter II and Mortal Kombat 2 and 3 arcade machines were the highlight of many gaming arcades around the world, well they definitely were when I grew up anyway.

I specifically remember crowds and crowds of people queuing up to play Street Fighter II Championship Edition, and then you also had some arcade machines which had been modded so when Ryu threw a fireball, about 10 appeared on screen. It was more of the same thing for Mortal Kombat 3 in the arcades as well, as I used to remember people crowding round watching this one guy perfoming Cyrax’s shark animality on screen much to the delight of everyone watching.

Enough about my experiences though, what are your fond memories of both games? Could you possibly pick between either of them – it’s a tough call we admit. Nowadays it’s all about Street Fighter IV as that has set the benchmark but the arrival of a fresh Mortal Kombat, back in glorious 2D could shake things up nicely. We’ve created a poll below for you to vote on this, and I particularly can’t wait to see the results of it.

So let’s have it out fighting fans – Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat?
