OK, so, long story short, my buddy let a friend borrow SF3:3rd Strike for DC and said friend has his car broken into and his backpack stolen, w/ SF3:3S in it =(
But, my question is this: what are the main differences between SF3:Double Impact and SF3:3S??? On eBay, 3rd Strike always goes for at least $50-$60 while Double Impact can be had for under $40, so clearly one is looked upon more favorably than the other.
Is it worth getting Double Impact or are the differences enough to warrent sticking with 3rd Strike as the only acceptable version of SF3 to own/play?
Thanks in advance!
3s is more refined.
double impact contains both New Gen, and Second Impacts on one Gd-rom.
for both collectors and SF players, 3s is more sought after...

Another weird note...
American DC version is a different revision than the Japanese DC version.
It's based off the CPS3 versions... there's the Japanese Rev. 1/U.S. version, then the Japanese Rev. 2. The American DC version is based off Rev. 2.
In Rev. 2, FAS doesn't work, along with a few other combos, if I recall correctly. My friends and I were messing with the U.S. version the other day, and remarking to me what didn't work compared to my import version.
Neither one is better, per se... depends on the situation. If someone knows how to do the Rev. 1 stuff well, though, you can win a LOT of matches. Plus, if you were going to play in a tournament in the states, all the cheapness would work.
But on the flip side, if you say, practiced for a Japanese tournament on Rev. 1, chances are you might find some of your chains don't work right.
As far as the difference between WI and 3s for DC, I'd get 3s. Yeah, 2i has great backgrounds and music, but as with all Capcom games, you will seldom find players of earlier versions.
2i cheapness is easier to pull off than 3s cheapness, in my opinion... that probably has a lot to do with the player abandonment of the previous game. That, and Ibuki's infinite.

The only combo that doesn't work in version 2 that I can think of right now is Uriens Agies Reflector Unblockables.
IMO, I would get 3s. 3s just seems to be the standard sf3 game you see at arcades.
