I can remember Street Fighter II invigorating the arcade scene. After seeing that this year is the 25th Anniversary of Street Fighter, I couldn’t believe that the series has been around that long. Granted, the original Street Fighter hasn’t had the following the other games in the series have had. Still, if you are a fan of any of the Street Fighter games, then you’ll want to check out the Limited Edition Street Fighter 25th Anniversary Collector’s Set that Capcom has just announced.
Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced the limited edition Street Fighter®25th Anniversary Collector’s Set, which will be available in North America on Sept. 18, 2012 for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft.
