For some reason they didn't put this version of SS5 on the 'complete' collection so if you are a SS aficionado completion can only be achieved with this one on tow... or just emulate it... you do you :)

This game is good. Probably top 5 fighting game of all time, I usually play other versions since this one doesnt have spectating or a lobby system. But it's worth to buy it.

I wish I could play this game, but the entire screen flashes red anytime you connect an attach which is very distracting and uncomfortable. It's unfortunate that was originally in the game in 2004 and so there's nothing you can do to cannot turn it off. Before purchasing, I recommend watching clips of the game and make the decision if it bothers you. Personally, I can't play it, but I'm leaving a positive review to support the support Code Mystics gives to these classic games.
