Great Game and classic

if you play Street Fighter I, II, V, then....this is something u have to get~

I have both system and i bought both versions of streetfighter 4, but first i have to say i bought both systems because i love video games and i try not to sound or be bias in anyway for the videogame community.Ok let's start.. the first thing i noticed between the PS3 and the 360 is the PS3 loading time in between fights is about 10 to 11 seconds(I based the loading time on counting the blinking "Player 2" sign on the upper right corner) it maybe sounding nit picking but 10 to 11 seconds for a fighting game(especially streetfighter) is kind of long(i didn't say "way" long). im not a fanboy and im trying to be unbias as possible. i am just trying to inform the game community about the differences between the PS3 and the 360 streetfighter 4 versions. 360 loading time (in comparison to the PS3) is about half the time 5 to 6 seconds faster. good luck gamers i hope my review helps others (and like me who has both systems).

I remember as a kid buying Eletronic Gaming Monthly to get new combos to try them at the Street Figher II arcades and get people angry. Through the years I've owned and tried every Capcom fighter and have LOVED with a passion every Street Fighter game. My Street Fighter passion came to a boiling point with SF III. That was probably the best 2d fighter I ever played PERIOD!!!!! Which brings me to SF IV.... Oh God SF IV....

I really wanted to, and say like this game.......damn I really do but here goes;

The graphics look great. Then we get to the actual game.....Characters have 1 special move??? why, and they don't look as good as they do in the other 2D games. We have the cast of SF II returning and no one from SF III....again why??? Alex was cool, so were alot of other characters in SF III like, Necro, Elena, Ibuki and such.....but they get replaced by these very forgettable and not fun at all characters in SF IV.... I can honestly say I avoided them as much as possible, only used to unlock other characters. And alpha characters shouldn't belong in this game. The final boss......are you kidding me??? I have Necro meets Gil type of character. Actually this was worse then the final boss from Marvel vs. Capcom 2.... The only thing that made me keep this game for 2 months was the online play...but then that got old seeing as how 1) everyone picks Akuma and do the same fighting patterns, 2) its hard to connect.

Capcom give us a follow up to SF III.... not this junk!

Yep.. The Old is New again.. this is what 2 players fighting game should be all about... 2D plain and simple, but all the extras make it very competitive.. The moves are challenging but not confusing like 3D fighting games... Although this can be a better game, it is the best Street Fighter ever!!! The only complain I have is the online fighting gets kind of hard to find a fighter without having to refresh every time.. Sometimes you have to wait so long to get someone to fight you..

Really good game, but would not recommend this to people who don't like to repeatedly playing the same thing over and over again....

i just got this today on the PS3. i am really grateful that Capcom kept all the original STREET FIGHTER II characters in STREET FIGHTER IV. so far i've only tried Ryu but all the moves are exactly like i remember. the control setup takes some getting used to as the last time i played STREET FIGHTER was on the PS2 and before that was on the old Genesis. all i need now is the joystick so i con't have to look for the buttons when playing online.

Street Fighter fanatics and fighting game aficionados should already own this game.

The only real question is whether you, the casual gamer, should also give this game a try.

What kind of casual fan are you?

Are you the kind who spent hours playing Street Fighter 2 in arcades, on SNES, or Sega Genesis 15+ years ago? If so, feel free to pick up right where you left off, throwing hadoukens, sonic booms, and spinning bird kicks just like you used to. All your favorite World Warriors are present and accounted for, and their classic moves have been reborn in an intriguing new 3D art style. At 60 fps, the game is truly a sight to be seen. Online Youtube videos simply don't do this thing justice.

But, what about casual gamers who've never played a Street Fighter game in their lives? Will this game be worth your time and money? That depends entirely on you...

Because with Street Fighter (and any fighting game, really) you get what you give. Initially, the game may seem difficult or foreign...but with time you improve and start to understand the nuances of the game. Eventually, what you once considered difficult will become second nature. And, by playing against friends both locally and online, you will have plenty of opportunities to hone your craft (and have fun in the process).

In this regard, replay value is nearly infinite. Because, even after you beat arcade/story mode, watch all the fully animated cut scenes, unlock all 9 hidden characters, complete challenge mode, and earn every achievement, you STILL have the main attraction to look forward to...versus mode. And, as long as there are willing warriors on the horizon, there will always be stuff to do...

...that is, if you're willing to put a little time into it.

Capcom is all about milking the franchise, so it's no surprise that SUPER Street Fighter IV is launching 13 months after SF IV. A few "new" characters, lots of tweaking, and rock bottom low price to get you to buying this weak update. If they needed to tweak:

- The impressive new roster includes classic combatants from previous Street Fighter games like T. Hawk as well as all-new characters such as the mysterious and deadly female fighter, Juri.

- Super Street Fighter IV adds new Ultra Combos and advancements to the state of the art online matchmaking and online game play introduced in Street Fighter IV with numerous additional features

- Super Street Fighter IV takes many of the groundbreaking features introduced in Street Fighter IV and refines everything to deliver the ultimate vision of Street Fighter to fans the world over.

It's shouldn't be a new stand alone game, it should be a free expansion update for what is clearly a lack of game testing before it went to market.

This is the best fighting game of all time. Ever since streetfighter 2 hit the scenes there hasn't been a fighting game to come close to it's characters personality and gameplay. I'm so glad they stuck with 2d. Mortal Kombat was ruined ever since they turned it to 3d. Still I think street fighter as a side scroller is much better than MK as a side controller. Must buy!

The Street Fighter series always seems to be the most challenging fighting game series to me, and this entry is no exception. Even on the easy setting, this game can be a litle tough. So the game isn't easy(even on easy). The game looks beautiful and proves that a true Street Fighter game should stay 2D and it really works. Overall, fun and beautiful, but also hard. Casual gamers beware, you may become frustrated.

It was good to see that SF4 made it to the PS3. It looks great, plays great and in my opinion will give Tekken 6 a run for its money. Being a Tekken die-hard follower, playing SF4 was still fun no matter how many times you down-forward+heavy punch. 20+ years classic...

Yes, that's what Street Fighter brings. The good old memories of Street Fighter II in the arcade. Saving your lunch money to play a couple more games of it, missing class, and getting embarassed by a kid that can barely reach the joystick just makes you spend more quarters to practice.

The game play is awesome, it's a sure buy for anyone even remotely interested in fighting games. Also a sure buy for people like me who enjoys the memories of playing this in the arcade non-stop about 15 years ago. There's plenty of reviews about the acutal game play and technical stuff, so I'm going to review this for older gamers like myself.

Couple things that kind of deducted the enjoyment a little bit:

1. unlockable characters. Don't have time to play all day, after spending 3 hours on it, and no characters unlocked, don't think I'll ever unlock all the characters

2. Please make more joysticks. It's sold out and only eby has them at a outrageous price. It just doesn't feel right without a joystick.

Other than that, time to get an ice pack on my thumb and fight away!

its a really good game, the new features are easy to understand and the review of the history of the comic really makes a nice touch!!!

This game seems to forget about people who just want to have fun, not memorize ultra touchy and complex controls. I bought the game with the idea that it would be a cool casual game i could play every once in a while. After playing it for a few hours I still can't beat more than a few opponents on easiest. I'm not interested in figuring out all these complex move since the computer doesn't seem to actually be easy for casual players like me. This game only caters to hardcore players and ignores anyone just wanting to have some fun. If you haven't played street fighter much in the past you will hate this game.

Graphics: 10/10

Sound: 10/10

Game Play: 10/10

Fun: 9/10 (After awhile it just seemed repetitive, it would have been a lot more fun if you could play with a friend)

I highly recommend this game to anyone. My girlfriend is not a gamer but she likes this. So if you liked previous SF games then you would love this.
