Street Fighter
Street Fighter is one of the longest running fighting franchises in gaming right now. The technical, easy-to-learn yet difficult-to-master gameplay, iconic characters, and huge tournaments keep this in any fighting fan’s top five list. Just like Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter has been around more than long enough to provide some seriously awesome gifts.
A PlayStation 4 and a SFV Pre-Order – The next installment of the beloved franchise is console exclusive to the PS4 and also releasing PC. With a PS4 being a bit more affordable than a gaming rig, why not give the amazing gift of a bundle, including a receipt for the game due in 2016?
Artwork – Redbubble doesn’t only do apparel, you can actually purchase some pretty sweet canvas prints as well from the website. These would look perfect on any fan’s wall. Etsy also has some neat handmade pieces of art, and there are a ton of art books available covering the history and transformation of the series.
Movies – Street Fighter has received its fair share of movies that fans have grown to love. Try and steer clear of the live action stuff, it isn’t very… good.
Figures – Figures are always a good look when doing some shopping, although they can become pretty expensive. Find out your special fighting fan’s favorite Street Fighter character and pick them up one of the awesome Square Enix Play Arts Kai figures.
Reading Material – Nothing like a bit of background to the amazing characters of an awesome fighting series. Graphic novels can provide a great source of information and entertainment. You can start with Udon Entertainment for some impressive books, and then continue your search from there as you look for the perfect gift.
