Ep. 32 If the Boys Wanna Fight You Better Let 'em | Street Fighter III: Third Strike

Ep. 32 If the Boys Wanna Fight You Better Let 'em | Street Fighter III: Third Strike

In this episode of The Cable Club Podcast, the guys and Jaymo from the Old Switch-A-Roo button mash their way through Street Fighter III: Third Strike (Fight for the Future). Come back to a time where gaming mettle was earned on your feet in the arcades.

With an exquisite soundtrack by Canadian Rapper, Infinite, the thumping base of a new cabinet draws your attention: Street Fighter III, Third Strike: Fight for the Future. It’s been some time in the franchise since we’ve seen the familiar faces of Ryu, Ken, Chun Li, and Akuma back together again. This time they’re riding along with new favorites like Axel and Hugo.

The visuals are stunning, and characters like Goro & Q have to be seen to be believed. This game is the peak of pixel art and represents as a staple of the fighting game genre, even in 2025. The Daigo Parry was an e-sports defining moment that ushered video athleticism into the mainstream.

Come and see where the game lands in this year’s league standings, and follow along to see where it goes for the rest of the year.
