User blog:Ouroburos.TheNewSaurian/Street Fighter III vs. Street Fighter IV: Musical Wars

This is your true deity, Ouroburos! For today, I have yet another debate blog post. Of course this one is going to be based around music composition... and what way than to start with a clash between Street Fighter III and Street Fighter IV.

Now first off, most of you should be well aware how I prefer the Street Fighter III series over IV any day. Whether it's the music, game mechanics, visuals (the character sprites that animated so fluidly and the stage backgrounds), or the realistic storyline, I couldn't go wrong with this installment to an ever-so-loved franchise. Some can say it's overrated because of the nostalgia factor, but I digress. As for Street Fighter IV... it's definitely a decent (impressive to most fans) entry, but some of the flaws can overpower the pros. For instance, its music was pretty forgettable and overly cheesy (especially "Indestructible" and "The Next Door"; both songs performed by a group named Exile).

But however, I will show you users out there at least eight pieces from both Street Fighter III and IV. You can tell me which game music you prefer. And it's no surprise nearly everyone will choose Street Fighter IV! :/
