In the Xbox version of the Street Fighter Anniversary Collection, you're getting one of the greatest games of all time, a definitive iteration of a true classic, online play for both, a great anime movie, and several other bonuses.

A game whose essence is defined by the two player mode is now made essential by the perennially available multiplayer options. Join the revolution - this is what online gaming was made for.

A great compilation of two fantastic games made even better with online multiplayer. Toss in a bargain price tag and fighting fans get one heck of a deal.

A dream come true for fighting game fans. If you were raised on this series, you'll be in Heaven, as pretty much anything you could ever want is here, and done well.

Not only definitive but also indispensible... Newer fighting games might be bloodier, flashier, or sexier, but Street Fighter Anniversary Collection offers purity and impeccable gameplay. [March 2005, p.80]

The ability to play versus, mix-matched style with characters from various coin-ops is a great twist to a classic compilation, and the chance to do all of this online makes the pie that much sweeter.

The Xbox pad isn't the best for street fighting, but the online play was flawless during our testing. [March 2005, p.126]

The animation in particularly looks very stilted, yet it remains an important milestone in gaming history for us oldies to croon over.

Arcade perfect. The ports are very clean and faithful to the originals. No sign of pixelazation here.

It would have made more sense to the fans if Capcom had chosen to include full, and separate versions of all the games whose elements are included here, and the absence of the original Street Fighter, or any of the Alpha series are sore omissions.
