Are you a diehard Street Fighter fan with $150 to blow? Look no further than the Street Fighter 25th Anniversary collection. The collection includes 4 games, an 11 disc soundtrack, 2 blurays packed with bonus features, a light-up statue of Ryu and a full-size replica of his belt, among other goodies. Considering some new "deluxe" editions of certain games *cough*COD*cough* get close to the $150 mark and offer maybe the game and something lame like fake night vision goggles, I think this bundle is a pretty good deal.
