Well, the games in general are pretty fun, but just listen to Skullomania's theme. That freaky funhouse breakdown.

Funny this thread should show up. I was just thinking how much playing Akuma in Tekken 7 reminded me of playing SF EX.

Hell yeah! SF EX+alpha games weren't the best balanced (and EX 3 had no simple 1v1 arcade mode), but damn were they just straight up fun. It sucks they aren't remembered so fondly anymore. I snagged EX 1 at a used game store for a bargain and played the shit out of it.
And the music is the best part of it. I have so much of that game's soundtrack on my phone. White Field, Precious Heart, Cold Pipe, Irreconcilable...hell, the victory jingle from EX 3 was my ringtone for a time (now it's Ark from Persona 5, right when the violins kick in).
I keep telling myself I'd do a review of it for my blog, but I feel...unclean doing Street Fighter EX Plus Alpha as not just my first SF game on the site, but my first fighter altogether. I feel like I should hit on SF 2 or Alpha or something first.

Honestly, the EX series has a whole is kind of Underrated.
Sure I still prefer the Alpha Series and 3rd strike etc but these were still fun games to play.

EX's music is some of the best game music ever. But then again, Street Fighter has always have great music.
Personally I put EX+ Alpha and EX2 Plus soundtracks right under 2nd Impact, New Generation and Alpha 2 Gold as my favorite SF soundtrack.

To be honest, the only Street Fighter game whose music I enjoy is Street Fighter II. Everything developed afterward in the Street Fighter franchise may have better gameplay and graphics, but the music and backgrounds have never come close to equating what was in SF2.
