  • this gaame is sucky, cheesy, fucked up, shity and stupid Manga that deserves no more then 50%

  • I Love Fighting Games With Stories Behind It

  • stop trying to scam people and get a life

  • i gave this game 4/5 stars, i'd give it a 5/5 but they miss out one thing, the one thing that grabs u by the balls n made u luv this game, and that is all the fighter theme and there stages. hopful SSF4 will bring it back. without it it doesnt feel like SF at all but overall this game still kick ass

  • next up to bat is sound lets just say that it is not indestructible lol:)

  • They need to come out with new characters

  • thats what super street fighter iv is for :)

  • ¬_¬

  • sf4 is sooo good man, i'm so addicted

  • why is chun li's legs so big

  • :)she probably is thick and thick girls have a fat ass and maybe big legs :)

  • @KevinVuongisWong Because she's been kicking people every day for 20 years.

  • nice review

  • on a good note I will say that I THINK DIAGO IS HANDS DOWN THE VERY BEST .. I MEAN VERY BEST... KEN PLAYER AND STREET FIGHTER PLAYER IN THE WORLD TODAY AND HAS BEEN PRETTY MUCH SINCE HE CAME ONTO THE SCENE!... his skill is truly of star status and he wins evrytime almost especially when it counts.... basically the tiger woods or micheal jordan of street fighter!! if you didn't know that now you know!!... look him up

  • is there such a thing as a daigo fanboy?

  • he might be good compared to american fighters, but he is a scrub compared to other japanese players

  • Street fighter 3 3RD STRIKE really IS THE BETTER GAME (in my opinion)... and this is coming from a veteran of 3rd strike and a Gamestop Tourney WINNER OF THE FIRST 2 full brackets (our gamestops were packed and i had to run through 30 (1st round) and 22 ppl (second round) before I got beat.... btw i started with sagat hehe.... crappy cons- the focus system is a WORSE rehash, ultras are NOT necessary.. stick to supers... and hits often don't connect, EVEN sgat has an ultra corner glitch lookit up

  • what a gay game

  • people that say this game suxs or that its top hard ill tell you this learn how to fucking play and stop bitching.

  • hahahaha feel the wind of a passin hadoken haha

  • oh u and your new challenger is gonna get ripped when i get this game! i don't know if u work out daily but yeah, u gon get reipped! lmao

  • This is a pretty fair review, although the mispronounced character names did kind of make me cringe (Gouki is pronounced with an extended 'o' not an 'oo') and I should point out that 'Shen Long' was a mis-translation of Ryu's rising dragon punch, and the joke of him being a character arose as a result of a misconception concerning the phrase 'defeat Shen Long'. Gouken doesn't really even bare any resemblance to the joke character and has been around since the Alpha series.

  • seriously how come no1 talks about how hard it is!!?? its fuckin hard and especially on 360 thnx to the suck ass d-pad T_T looks like ima have to make my own review

  • this is by far the best SF as all charectars are balanced and you don't just have to play ryu/akuma/ken to have the best chance of winning

  • Yeah I own and like this game too and the graphics work BUT!... as for the people thinking this is beter than 3rd strike!!!!... hellll noooo..... if you missed out on the greatness of third strike or didn't know it existed it perfected on top of alpha 3, andthe techs and parry ssytem is the gold standard!... watch Daigo EVO moment 37!.. that says it all... sf4 is a "middle ground", FEW new features to franchise but 3rd strike IS KING & the most progressive, STILL played & has MORE "DEPTH"(imo)

  • Alpha 3 isn't that good, but I have to agree, 3s is better. SFIV is a great game though

  • Damn, what's that song in the beginning? Anyone has the mp3 of it?

  • Its Kens theme

  • this the first sf anything i ever beat.strange...

  • This game is an instant classic and will be well loved for a long time I think.

  • ..... I so wanted to adore this game, but the really pathetic control scheme (360) just makes it too impossible to do anything. I mean, I'm all for complicated control schemes, but only when they're easy to do. SFIV is just too complicated and the controllers make it even harder...... It may just be my lack of SF skills, but, I'd give it 75%, purely because of the controls. o.O

  • You should've bought an Arcade Stick.

  • Yeah.... Too expensive for just one game.

  • Want good control? Get PS3 version. Solid!

  • Yeah....... I don't have good reason to get a PS3 yet. If KH3 is only going to go to PS3 then I may think about it.

  • You have good reason: METAL GEAR SOLID 4!!!!

  • .....Me no likey shooters. o.O

  • It's not a shooter. It's stealth action. You can go through almost the entire game without shooting anyone. I don't like 1st person shooters either.

  • lawl of skill really i had no problem with it.

  • I can't help but feel that this game pretends that SF Alpha and SF III don't exist...

    It's all about the graphics and the online play. No substance at all

  • Why does it have to acknowledge the existence of another game? What kind of substance would you have liked to have seen? This is a Street Fighter game. It's all about the game play, the tournaments, and the character balance. If substance to you means "story", then no wonder!

    I think this game does an excellent job in hearkening back to the days when videogames were about, well.. gameplay. And the gameplay in this game is deep and sure to keep fans going for years to come.

  • Sure it will....if they haven't touched a Street Fighter game since 1994. I think it's a damn shame that this game gets more attention than 3rd Strike did...or Street Fighter III in general.

    My guess is these people are the kinds of people who've never heard of SF III, or wrote it off just because they didn't like the characters. 3rd Strike is a vastly superior game in every category. You just have to learn to read between the lines.

  • Street Fighter III's battles were convoluted and unbalanced. 3rd Strike was admittedly decent, but still lacking. I think the extra hype surrounding IV has more to do with timing than anything else. Still-It may all come to personal preference, but I much prefer the distilled fight system in IV to the convoluted system of III. The excess baggage was excised, and it's an overall better game for the trouble. So, no, SFIII is not superior in every category and no text between the lines was missed.

  • I think SF IV is street fighter EX in 2D. They took out the parrying, there is no System Direction, and it's considerably slower and nowhere near as charming. Polygons cannot move as fast as sprites can, so it takes a hit in the speed dept.

    This simply doesn't stack up to 3rd Strike. It's not a bad game, but it's NOT better than Alpha 3 or 3rd Strike.

  • Polygons actually can move just as fast as sprites can (adjustments would need to be made, of course). The system was slowed down intentionally in this game to emphasize strategy over the spastic reaction-based battles of previous games. I'm not wholly convinced that this game stacks up to Alpha 3, which was and still is my personal favorite, in terms of fun, but I would put it squarely above 3rd strike. Once again, though, it's personal preference, and you're welcome to your own opinion :)

  • Not to mention (and I just noticed this) there is a slight pause in the action EVERY SINGLE TIME a hit is landed, whether it's blocked or not, which can throw off your timing when doing combos. I would at least like to have seen a system direction or ex options. I'm not spending $60 for this. I think it's gonna be a contender for game of the year, which quite honestly I think is undeserved. GameTrailers gave this a 9.2 which is way way too high. I'd give it a 6-7.5 at best.

  • There isnt a pause, there is a delay until the next hit which gives veteran ( or simply skilled players) the ability to chain and Link hits.

    What do you mean by System direction and Ex options?

    Seriously, this game is fucking great. it's easily worth 60$, i myself would have payed double that aswell.

    It's like 3s, with better graphics and some nerfed characters ( but no parry system :( ).

    Hey, maybe you aren't a fighter fan, but it's still a fucking great game!

  • Have you played Street Fighter EX?

  • that was in third strike aswell it supposed to be there.

  • Spastic reaction based battles has never been the way to play any street fighter game ( Apart from the first one perhaps). Everyone has they're right to an opinion, but this game does kick Alpha's AND 3s's ass. I love Alpha and 3s, but this is even better. I havent played this one in a arcade.

    Of course, the beloved parry system from 3s is gone, that's a big bummer, but the focus attack system brings a new component to the table.

  • Somehow, I doubt most people have time to plan out a strategy if they crank SFII Turbo or SFAlpha up to the highest speed (Turbo II on SF Alpha, which is also the default on the PSX). Once you get good, the tactics play out naturally, and maybe you have time for a vague idea of a strategy. But in a lot of ways I've always felt it is more like speed chess vs. competition chess. BIG difference. Cranking down the speed to "Turbo" or "Normal" does reintroduce elements of tactics and strategy.

  • the focus attack reminds me of the Gaurd Break and the Surprise Blow from the EX series. I'm not saying it's a bad game, just compared to the other two games, this one feels like a couple steps back, that's all. The graphics was the first thing that turned me off about this game. If Sagat wasn't in it, I wouldn't be interested at all. I still think it's dumbed down. I don't care if it's on a 2-D plane, this shouldn't be in 3-D

  • i totally agree sf4 feels dumbed down nothing beats 3rd strike i play that game on dailly basis that game has more depth than sf4

  • are you joking? focus cancels ... super cancels ... focus .. into dragon .. into super .. into ultra..try the trials mate n tell me they are easy lol

  • 3rd strike has been out for almost 8 years and had a few updates(like red parrying).

    Of course atm its more depth sf4.

    Parrying was bad for Third strike anyway.

  • LOL no.

  • stevie mk vs dc is shit iv got only played it like a few hours not played it since

  • good review man, personally i kinda miss the old school 2d look of it, yeah the cell shaded graphics are nice and pretty but idk akuma's super looked so much more badass in the older versions, while this SF to me, seemsa bit more goofy

  • Um, I think the fully 2d ones were goofier than the new graphics.

  • Super Street Fighter HD turbo is definately for you

  • wtf is wrong with u?

  • This game don't stack up to MK vs DC Universe in my opinion

  • this game is the shit...95%

    loving it....

    where is SNK vs Capcom 3 i want it

  • Shoryuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuuuuuuuken!!!!!!1

  • its all about the music at the start of this vid...........

    street fighter is sikk!!!

  • cool, is there a tourny mode?

  • COOL

  • You can play ranked and unranked matches. Check out my channel for the new SF IV Battle points hack video :p

    You´ll like it if you´re playing SF IV Online.

  • What online modes does this have?

  • Apparently the online lags terribly, thats about the only thing stopping me from getting this game...

  • not really i have no problems

  • Cool cool, my friend says its not bad too, getting it today ^^. Might trim down the d-pad though, heard its tricky with fighting games.

  • dude basically every game lags from time 2 time

  • Yeah well I got it 2 days ago, and I thought the online was awesome (apart from me sucking), so I honed a couple moves and learned how to perform blanka's ultra and super and now I can't get a game that freezes between frames for 1-2 seconds sometimes! I know it's not my connection.

    Anyone wants a game from UK invite me, I need to get better :).

  • Personally I like the way you see the bones when you electrocute some1 :)

  • I haven't played a Street Fighter since SF2. I'm definitely getting this. Oh and you sound like Bobby Flay lol.

  • I give this game a 6.0 because.they taken away all the character specials. the game is really unblanced especially the grabing system, for instince you could grab someone no matter what. when i fought seth,he grab he out of my ultra special.(c. viper) some characters are over powered and cheap as well especially the boss. overall it doesn't feel like a street fighter game. by the way,what happened to deejay, t-hawk, and guy. rufus is the worst character I ever seen in my life.

  • El Fuerte is the biggest joke I've seen since Dan. Seriously, I'm pretty good at these games and I couldn't win with this guy till I figured out his moves and started using the ONLY useful one I saw. Pretty pathetic when your NORMAL attacks are more useful than your specials.

  • i like japanese since it reminds me of playing alpha 2 at my old barbber shop. ahh nostalgia

  • You kids are like 12 years old and think your mad street fighter fans? Im 17 and was young as when SFII was out, u's wouldnt have been able to walk when people were playing it. Stop pretending you were their when it began

  • lol yea well i was playing it. im 21. my first fighting game

  • i remember growing playing street fighter, mortal kombat, and super mario brothers on our super nintendo. good times good times.

  • yea lol im 14 my fav games back then were sf2 killer instinct mario and ff7 i used to play my ps1 and nentendo all the time

  • seth is like a mix between dhalsim and ice man like wtf? lol

  • Can som1 tell me the song at 6:47 ?

  • i freaked out when i find out this was coming out i camped out for 2 days and was the first person in malta to get a copy ... considering i was the only one camped out;'( but i literally have been waiting for this all my life and was born with a controller in my hands i was born in 1996 and which was when the previouse sf came out

  • seriously, I was born 1996 too!

  • yea a huge bummer isnt it i wasnt their for the awesome release too;ċ(

  • i was too

  • regarding fighting genre i understand the importance of this game, BUT i thought the game really delivers a shoddy street fighter, if anything.

  • Like a peach standing in the sunlight? Someone needs to get out more.

  • I never played Street Fighter before so this was an entirely new experience for me and absolutely the best fighting game I ever played, but I do agree with the hassle of online mode is the game's fatal flaw if any. Still online is hella fun once you get an opponent.

  • @_@ i love street fighter series i started playing them when i was 5 but im only 13 now

  • is this game still at 50 bucks? itll probably be a month or two till the price starts to drop. cant wait to buy it :)

  • can you play with the analog sticks on the xbox controller??

  • of course

  • good :) i bought it today

  • No, you can play with labia

  • You called the anime "great" are you kidding me, it makes little sense, and its really retarded. The collectors edition movie is even worse.

  • HELP ME PLEASE how can i find my friends in street fighter 4 ps3

  • You juggle your nuts in your mouth you mouse!

  • genius insult someone to cover up the fact you don't know yourself.

  • Your mum's name was Monica until she pulled her incomplete penis

  • wow a mom insult...if you wasn't brain damaged i'd be proud.

  • What do Ido with the codes Old-Skool-Fool and Bifordus-Maximus

    Please answer somebody

  • They are not codes. Those are PSN ID's. If you wanted to play or befriend either of these people you would type their name in the sender field. I think...

  • i dont know if i should get this case fighting games piss me off easily

  • i`m sure after the pc release the servers will be full

    in 1 may is the european release for the pc

    just cant w8 :>

  • this is rofl. "it is like a peach... in the sun...."

  • Played it the other night against a mate, 40 wins to me 8 to him :D still got it! , But the new characters wtf :( and also if you put rounds to 1 and very easy to try and unlock the chars quick dont! Seth is for some reason almost impossible to beat and is so annoying,

  • Seth is a Cheap Punk

  • its a great game but i doesnt match the hype people built around it.

  • im so gettin this now

  • i cant wait to buy this

  • the last installment in street fighter was 10 years ago....

  • was it that long ago really? Wasn't it for the ps2?

  • no. arcade was the last installment?

  • i think their was another street fighter series called alpha on ps1 and ps2 i think

  • anyone can add me my gamer tag is

    o0night0o

  • I don't have xbox live yet, but when I get it, I'll challenge you. :-)

  • lol, the reviewer is pretty funny. Yea that opening track....why did capcom do it? I mean they must have had a board meeting to decide what song would be the flagship anthem for another 20 years. I just don't think this one is it, although it grows on you after the first 540 times you hear it.

  • is this game worth it? im not sure if i should get it

  • buy it if u dont than ur an idiot

  • i normally don't like fighting games, but this one is awesome. I've playing since Street Fighter 2, and this one rocks.

  • thank you=D i will be pickin that up on march 3d my b day

  • Once I get on xbox live, feel free to challenge me. The user name is the same as youtube. Th1mastemike

  • gooki

  • this is how a review should be

  • Sheng Long isn't Gouken's name. When Ryu states: "You must defeat Sheng Long to stand a chance." in Street Fighter 2, he's referring to his Dragon Punch move. If you don't believe me, see the strategy guide for the game.

  • They then played on that, and made a character in EGM called Sheng Long which became Gouken ...believe me when I tell you. I talk to Capcom directly all the time!

  • ...and the naming of the characters becomes even more confusing! :-)

  • c.viper is an snk character i don't care what anyone says, and rey myterio plus the the other two snk type characters don't do justice for me, i only play with the real streetfighter characters. but over all good game though.

  • Playing this on the Ps3 with my Dreamcast controller =p

  • somebody please help me should i get street fighter 4? i hear that the computer is very hard and i dont have an HDTV nor a fight pad but i love street figher games...PLEASE HELP ME SOON BEFORE I GO AND BUY THIS GAME

  • well, if you love street fighter games then just go ahead and buy it. the computer really isnt THAT hard, and i dont have an HDTV either and im still enjoying the hell out of it. get it, you wot regret it.

  • Yes, the answer is yes. Get Street Fighter 4 from VideoGameCentral and then fight the good fight!

  • Right, but that led to Fighter III matches that were 80% defense. Absolutely stunning to watch tourney pros pulling it off against long chains and super combos, but at the same time....

    I guess it's just a matter of taste. :)

  • wanna play sf4 add me psn: Dreadknight88

  • I have a question: Is there a way to make Xbox 360 joysticks, i.e. Street Fighter 4 Fightstcik, work on the Wii? If so, I will get Tatsunoku Vs. Capcom right now from Videogame Central!

  • Unfortuantely at the moment there is nothing that is made to be able to let you do that, however there is a Wii Hori Stick that will be able to let you play Tatsunoko VS Capcom flawlessly!

  • best review ever !

  • This is for people who seem to never be able to connect to a game when they play sf4 online.....u HAVE to make a game...dont try joining one....when u make it, people always join, and i mean always, within 10 seconds....im not sure about 360 but for people with a ps3....INSTALL THE GAME, matches, both online and offline, will be almost an instant load.

  • PSN ID: Fluid638

  • cool 5/5

  • PSN: manta005

  • As for opening up gameplay opportunities, the parry from SF3 did that job much better than the focus attacks in SF4. Especially for "seasoned veterans". I like the focus attack too, but they should have left the parry in there in some form or option. Great review, by the way.

  • I'm not sure yet. I'm loving the focus attack, and III became a game so weighted towards defense...

  • The thing with the focus attack is that it's exclusively a one move counter, meaning that you can only counter with the single attack that is part of the focus attack. The parry let you counter with literally any move you wanted, even special moves and supers. Imagine the many more possibilities with the parry compared to the focus attack.

  • Comment removed

  • PSN ID: JohnnyFxCKingW-  Add me if you play MGO, and/or Going ro play Resi5 GoW3 etc :)

  • my cock climaxed....twice.

  • nice review man i really enjoyed it and definately convinced me to check thiz game out. Thnx

  • can someone who's played it tell me if its easy too pull there special combos with the flick of the controls instead of molding your fingers into practice of timing the combos and difficulty of the orginal games..I mean like you can pull a combo with ease instead of practicing over with everybody in SF4..

  • depends on the character. Characters like Ken, Dans, Ryu and Sakura - thier combos are easy to pull off with little to no practice. Charge charcters like guile balrog take a little more effort. Realistically though you can olny get so far with a control pad with this game. You really need an arcade stick to play this game since thats what it was designed for. Otherwise you will never be able to do certain combos or even complete some of the charcater combo challenges.

  • psn: ransomm

  • i was going to buy this game when it first came out for the ps3 but it was sold out so i going to buy it tomorrow

    cant wait ^_^

  • I love this game. But I am going to have a hell of a time unlocking AKuma.

  • why ? and can i ask u plz can you use seth online against friends ?

  • You must have Sakura, Dan, Gen, Cammy, Rose, and Fei-Long unlocked.

    Beat Arcade Mode on any difficulty and with any settings, using any character.

    Must have at least 2 Pefect Rounds before defeating Seth.

    Cannot lose any matches and use a continue.

    Defeat Akuma. To unlock him. Yes you can use Seth online.

  • ok thank's =D

  • how do u invite friends on ps3 !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • awesome cant wait to fight ,

    my psn is mike155

  • You give it a lower grade because it didnt come out when you think it should have... That makes no sense, you dont grade a game on something like that.

  • He said the online functions were not all that great. which is actually true. The part you mention is just him rambling.

  • Yes, it's called redundancy. As great as the game is...it's primarily another similar addition to the SF franchise. In my mind as much as I like the game there is a certain amount of rehash that continues...though it's a very refined and enjoyable rehash on a next-gen platform.

  • you made all the vendors and customers mad when you slammed the stretchy guy into the ground....lololololo

  • nice review. THanks for ripping on the online matchmaking area. It's worse than HD remix in that respect by far.

  • GOOD REVIEW PLAYBOY

  • ahh, the 1080p setting was mentioned, but ps3 owners dont get that

  • hell yeah akuma still better then seth

  • most fighting games r short.....

  • What games are you playing?
