This game is so underrated it's not even funny. The levels are excellent, the 3D is awesome (imo), the characters are amazing, and the MUSIC is AWESOME. Will never forget this game.
The combos gave my thumb a blister. I needed a cloth to perform the really complex moves due to painful repetition. The Playstation directional pad has a rough surface, not great for doing quarter circle or half circle combos.
I wholeheartedly agree and I also love sprite based characters too. It automatically actives the Nostalgia deep within seeing these polygons/sprites for characters.
***** "...good adaptation for a game gone 3D at the time." That was the main objection I recall, hardcores freaking out as if SF going 3D was a sinful abomination.
***** I don't really have a dog in the race, I was never a very big SF fan. But I did have SF EX+A for PSX for some reason and I enjoyed it well enough. I just remember hardcore SF fans talking a lot of shit about it, s'all I'm saying.
+Druffmaul I LOVED this game when it came out and I say this as someone who grew up playing SF II Turbo and all its variants on the Sega Genesis. If I recall correctly, I think the biggest gripe about SF EX+a was that this game was not developed by Capcom, it was developed by Arika who asked permission to Capcom to develop a 3D version of SF and Capcom said yes. That's why some characters such as Doctrine Dark, Skullomania, Kairi, etc. don't appear on any other SF game except the EX series developed by Arika. I think Arika did a superb job with this game. I constantly compare SF IV with this game and I still think SF EX beats SF IV by a large margin.
I spent a lot of hours on this game clearing the expert mode. This is definitely a favorite of mine from my childhood not just because of the gameplay, but the music for the game is top notch. 😄
@@GungKrisna12 Not really, game companies were coming out with alot of new exciting games some worked some failed. Not like these days cookie cutter releases
Eh, back in the PS1-era the main game being released was platformers, I’m not a fan of FPS games but even I can admit we get a lot of good releases still
Ahhhh this game...this game right here caused a full 3 hours of my brother and I staring at the screen mad as hell at each other. No words being said....whoever lost just kept tapping the start button for a rematch the moment "K.O." came on the screen and I DARE you to get up and not rematch me!! lol
I swear fighting games were made for brothers to fight peacefully. get some shit off ya chest fighting your brother in the game lol I went thru the same shit with all my brothers.
the characters display was so unique for street fighter... got to love the combos they were just insane in the series... hope they make a return... a nicely polished game but without destroying what makes this game the gem that it is...
Street Fighter X Tekken should've been like this. Have the Street Fighter character's moves, but have Tekken's 3D style gameplay. The Devs should've taken from this game HUGELY when they made Street Fighter X Tekken. It's sad too, the idea of having innovators of two different fighting game types is an AWESOME idea that could've lead to many creative ideas. It's a shame that they took the easy route when making that game. At least we're getting a new Street Fighter EX in 2018. :)
This was my first videogame play in my life and the first contact with this hobby. Since this moment i love videogame. I have 35 years old and don't have a lot time for play but i still enjoy this culture. Thanks to my big brother for showing me this game that change my life forever and that has given me so many happy moments
Ahhh I remember these days. Tekken was killing it at the time. Every fighting game was trying out the 3D format, replay KO's, they even got rid of the traditional super gauge.
i remember playing this back in the day. Didnt like it at first but after awhile i enjoyed it alot. one of my fav street fighters and awesome soundtrack
Street Fighter EX plus Alpha was terrific. Unfortunately, Arika still owns the rights to great EX characters like Skullomania, Allen Snider, Garuda and others. Characters we would love to see brought back. I grew up playing the first EX. This brings back memories, and the game music was just brilliant.
I specially like Kairi's/Hokuto's stage theme "sakura mankai". Also the practice mode was great in this game, you could learn all basic and andvanced combos while having fun.
street fighter ex plus alpha characters: ryu ken chun-li guile zangief dhalsim sakura skullomania d. dark c. jack pullum hokuto kairi allen blair darun garuda. bosses: m. bison akuma.
I’d heard of the EX series but never really knew what it was or saw it in action before. This is badass hahaha. I was into SFA3 and Tekken 3 in early high school and this would have blown my mind
This game does have one of the best sound tracks. Every characters music seemed appropriate for them not mention, I liked the 3D versions much better then the 2D.
One of the best Street Fighter games of all time. Also, the announcer sounds like Chris Redfield. This is the only good EX game. Ignore 2 and 3 please.
Love the aesthetic of this era of Capcom games. I’m not sure what engine it was they were using from the mid 90s to the early 2000s, but it has this distinguishable vibe to it that you could identify right away from even the starting menu. A great example of this is the Mega Man X PS/Saturn era games (particularly X4, X5 and X6), and the first two Marvel vs Capcom games.
I think he's top tier in this game because of his jump arc, and the block stun mechanics in this game that allow him to react much faster (with command grabs, and SPDs) than any other version of Zangief in the SF franchise.
Capcom doesn't want to work with Arika. I've bought Fighting EX Layer Day 1 to support Arika. They still have Garuda, Skullomania, etc so I'm fine without the SF characters
Nostalgia! Did anyone ever finish every training mission? I never did, there were some really tough combos that had to have ridiculously accurate timing! Which ones did you find the hardest? Zangief's were a nightmare for controls and I also hated the mission where you to keep someone in the air for 30 seconds!
One thing I liked about this version, is that you could play as the CPU versions of the boss characters. If I could discover it, back then, it would have blown my freaking mind.
The music in this game is criminally underrated.
Frfr
MATE!!!!
The whole game is criminally underrated.
I still can’t believe how sick that Bison guitar rip is
Wasn't this music used in EX3?
This game is so underrated it's not even funny. The levels are excellent, the 3D is awesome (imo), the characters are amazing, and the MUSIC is AWESOME. Will never forget this game.
para que consolas o sistemas salieron?
The combos gave my thumb a blister. I needed a cloth to perform the really complex moves due to painful repetition. The Playstation directional pad has a rough surface, not great for doing quarter circle or half circle combos.
The announcer at the beginning was all like
"STREET FIGHTER EX! (plus alpha...)"
+M1YAK2 *"STREET FIGHTER EX...!"* (puts down script) .. (sees extra line..)
...Plus Alpha....
+crazybongo5 I owned this game back in the day and I used to think the same thing. Haha.
LOL Ikr
XT fygfyfyfy
Bonjour mûre jeu
Not sure what it is, but I'll always be a huge fan of block looking fighters. I miss the PS1/Saturn era.
this game was smooth! graphics might have a a bit of edges, but man the gameplay is intense and runs real smooth and the music.... ooooh the music
I wholeheartedly agree and I also love sprite based characters too. It automatically actives the Nostalgia deep within seeing these polygons/sprites for characters.
Yeah nee too this and last bronx style
Y'all weird
For sure. From these guys to lego figures in a Final Fantasy game.
this was the first ps1 game i ever owned. so good
Me too, 1998..
I second thay
Same here. Nostalgia
Me too. Lol.
@@TonyMuffins bait
I remember the first weekend i played this game for hours i had a bloodblister in my thumb from training for hours.
M G holy shit my cousin had that on his thumb too before from this game
Haha same here!
Lol.same
Same 😆😆😆
Square square forward x r1 is screaming dragon lol I've never forgotten
Surprised at all of the positive comments. My recollection is that when this came out the hardcore SF fanbase *HATED* it with a passion.

Good god expert was rough with the damage the CPU could do!! One simple combo from Akuma would eat 3/4 of your life bar!!
Back in time when consoles had a respectable array of games and not just a bunch of repetitive FPS games all over the market.
Maybe because of the market trend at that time (in this time, the market mostly favors fps)

I love all of The Street Fighter Series including The EX series. Whether it's in 2D,3D or live action, I love them all!
Are you still alive?
come on. SF1 kinda sux. do to the extremly difficult commands
My favorite sf game. This game the best music I could listen to it all day. Great video
Hell yeah. Strange Sunset was my favorite bgm
+Terrance McDonald It easily has the best music of the EX games and rates up highly among the whole Street Fighter series.
+Martyn de Weert No it has the best music of ANY sf game
Garnet Sky all day for me! :D
+Dorya Strange Sunset.
The music for this game is just spectacular!
thank you. My exact thoughts!
Like any old school Capcom game tbh
Absolutely its this jazz song on one of the fighting stages i can't get out my head wish i knew the name of it.
This is super nice. Combo, system, character, everything is well designed. Played a lot in the past.
ALOT better than easily half of whats happening right now
My friends and I played the absolute hell out of this back in college. Miss those guys and times as much as this game…..
This is the last game me and boy David played back in 2000. RIP James David Robbins III. Your boy will always miss you.
From Georgia?
An absolute blast of a game this was! So many many hours I spent enjoying the hell out of it! All my friends loved it as well
One of the all time greats in my opinion. When I was a kid, I would get so excited whenever I would see the cover art for the game.
It's as if virtua and street fighter had a love child.
and the tekken 1-2 and 3
+Ye Illuminator
Tekken is a good game in 3D but street fighter is a good game in 2D, but this game is amazing
STREET FIGHTER EX!!!!! plus alpha....
My first street fighter game and to this day is the best one!!! Should make an up to date with the same characters and more!!! Would be the best !!!
You have "Fighting Layer EX" now
Street Fighter EX is Always a Special place in my heart.
We need a next-gen version of this game.......
Wouldn't that be sf4?
CJ Oppies go to arika TH-cam page and they teasing a new EX game, it's coming very soon.
CJ Oppies Fighting Layer EX says hello ;-)
Fighting Ex Layer most excellent sequel. Hi-ya!
this game has a great soundtrack!
Specially Hokuto's Stage
Light Guardian of Ken and Precious Heart of Sakura
Aldo Gomez Perez or Chun-Li’s
I loved this game and nobody can ever tell me otherwise.
I had this game when was a child, always use to Skullomania and Garuda
I used to own this game, Garuda was mah maaan. Seriously SFEX > SF5
Most definitely !! My brother rocked Garuda....
I also main Garuda. Love it when you do all 3 super to finish the opponent. The background changes to Earth/globe
I considered myself king with garuda
Garuda was a BEAST!!!
Such nostalgia I played when I was so young it just brings back memories I couldn't remember which street fighter game it was but at last I found it
I love the character’s voice in this game. Pullum and Chun-Li moves sounds so good. ✨
I love this game's stages and music!
This game was so lit back in the day. The gameplay and soundtrack was amazing!
Omg, I love the music in the game! My favorites are definitely Pullum Purna, Chun Li, Skullomania and Hokuto! And Sakura!
I never got tired of playing this game!!! I still have this one.
Ahhhh this game...this game right here caused a full 3 hours of my brother and I staring at the screen mad as hell at each other. No words being said....whoever lost just kept tapping the start button for a rematch the moment "K.O." came on the screen and I DARE you to get up and not rematch me!! lol
I swear fighting games were made for brothers to fight peacefully. get some shit off ya chest fighting your brother in the game lol I went thru the same shit with all my brothers.
One of the first PS1 fighting games that my family had owned before Rival Schools came along.
Man I love the music in this game.
This game was my childhood. It's a shame it's not talked about much, this game was so good.
This is the best SF game ever. i want a remake with the same mechanics, same OST, same style
Andrey Mejía classic my older cousin had this
Yup it's got nostalgia factor 11 outta 10
One of the best soundtracks in gaming history easily
Nostalgia. I remember playing this when I was a kid.
OmG I love this game. Thank you for uploading this masterpiece.
the characters display was so unique for street fighter... got to love the combos they were just insane in the series... hope they make a return... a nicely polished game but without destroying what makes this game the gem that it is...
Used to play this all the time when I was a freshman in high school! It's definitely an underrated classic!
best street fighter of all time
Damn riiiight 👍👍👍
doctrine dark is a beast
Hell Yea His Moves Were So Flashy

Characters we would love to see brought back. I grew up playing the first EX. This brings back memories, and the game music was just brilliant.
Terrific good?
Spent so much time on this game.. remember when I first rented it as a kid at Hollywood video.
They really did a good job with this game. I always loved this game. Especially the music
I specially like Kairi's/Hokuto's stage theme "sakura mankai".
Also the practice mode was great in this game, you could learn all basic and andvanced combos while having fun.
Im having full flashbacks this was one of my favorite fighting games ever i stayed playing this back in the day.
I used to play this as a kid for hours on end. Brings back a lot of memories
This is my first time seeing this. I know for absolute fact I would’ve run this RAGGED as a kid. This looks so cool.
This game has one of the best soundtracks ever.
this one isn’t a bad game. it’s actually rather fun. the gameplay is there, with 3D models of the Street Fighter cast.

Thank you for helping me reminisce about the times when I use be so much into videogames.
Still my favourite of the Street fighter series to date. One of the first games we had for the PS1!
Oh man this takes me back!!
I’d heard of the EX series but never really knew what it was or saw it in action before. This is badass hahaha. I was into SFA3 and Tekken 3 in early high school and this would have blown my mind
ストリートファイターEX懐かしい過ぎる、少年時代の頃あったぜ
相変わらず大活躍してるんだ、リュウは。ストリートファイター3の続編が近い
This game does have one of the best sound tracks. Every characters music seemed appropriate for them not mention, I liked the 3D versions much better then the 2D.
I loved this game back in the day.
This brings back a ton of memories, when I was a little kid, my dad would play this, and then I grew up and became a Ken main...
The amount of hours I had in this game is amazing. I knew all moves from everyone. I literally was obsessed with that. Aaa those were the days 😢😢
I loved that you had to hit a kick button for each regular hurricane kick to land. The mix up options were nice.
thanks for the video. this was the coolest thing ever to me as a kid. had a big impact
I wish psn would put this on the store!
They did
When and where is it?
Jay H I need to check!
One of the best Street Fighter games of all time. Also, the announcer sounds like Chris Redfield. This is the only good EX game. Ignore 2 and 3 please.
This game is originally titled:
"Street Fighter Exquisite"
No joke?
Really?
NOSTALGIA OVERLOAD

This is the first ps1 game I ever played I was a baby playing this with my dad I am now 31 and this game is still good lol
Crying with the nostalgia here
To cubex55. I grew up playing Street Fighter EX plus Alpha. Incredible gameplay fighting music. Some of the best I've ever heard. This is awesome.
I remember this game at the time of its release. It’s truly the oddball in the series.
I think he's top tier in this game because of his jump arc, and the block stun mechanics in this game that allow him to react much faster (with command grabs, and SPDs) than any other version of Zangief in the SF franchise.
Is it just me, or does Allen sound like Goku when he's KO'd?
Japanese Voice? I Hate How He Sounds
It's not just you.
Aggressive Attitude Era Didn't Think So Lol
Never knew i’d see ryu in his 64 bit glory
przypomina mi moje dziecinstwo 16 lat mialem jak to wyszlo wtedy salon gier odstawilem
BEST STREETFIGHTER OF ALL TIME WE NEED AN HD VERSION
Capcom doesn't want to work with Arika. I've bought Fighting EX Layer Day 1 to support Arika. They still have Garuda, Skullomania, etc so I'm fine without the SF characters
"Strange Sunset" is the best track ever made in a fighting game.

Zangief's were a nightmare for controls and I also hated the mission where you to keep someone in the air for 30 seconds!
I miss this game so muuuuuch. Nice videoooooo you're really good😊👍
Fuck my life man, I never realized how much the graphics and overall look of this game had an impact on my own imagination
This Game was versatile as fuck, you could chain combos which made it stupid fun to play.
Summer 1998. This, Mega Man X4, Tekken 3 and Virtual Rally 2.
A good summer
The Skullomania theme is so awesome.
I love this game brings back so many memories
Skullmania and D.Dark were the mains.
This game was the one, used to play it back in the day with my dad.
Esse 0:05 primeiros segundos de vídeo me lembram uma nostalgia tão grande, saudades desses jogos
This is the best 2D-3D combination Street Fighting for Playstation one! I was joy to play Ken alot back then. Fun!
One thing I liked about this version, is that you could play as the CPU versions of the boss characters. If I could discover it, back then, it would have blown my freaking mind.
i love music in this game and of course Game lot memories :(
That's true :'3
