i do, next time i see vicious i am purchasing 3rd strike.
i'm going to get a jump on street fighter IV when that comes out too.
If your going to buy 3S, I suggest you also get yourself a stick controller. You'd best learn on the stick rather than the controller b/c tournaments are mostly held using the arcades. However, the only place to really buy a stick is online since it's rare to find them in game stores.

Forget GG. Pick up SF.
Larger (and more mature) community and a higher level of competition.

Besides, GG is really hard to pick up if you don't know how to use the stick.

I wouldn't say more mature, but definitely larger community. GG is incredibly complex and difficult to pick up. The two are pretty similar in terms of competition. Both games are good, but SF is too
slowwwwww :p jk

The community of SF is more mature b/c the game has been around much longer. And the level of competition for SF is greater than GG.

However, GG is much more complex than SF and has a steep learning curve.

But if flashiness, complexity and real competition is what your looking for, MvC2 is by far your best bet.

I think Guilty Gear is fing incredible. I would love to train with people and get good at it. I used to play a bit with Bob Money. For those of you going to Zhu's, I'll bring GG:AC if anyone is interested in playing.
