  • wait...12+6=18...but there are 25 characters?!

  • song in the back ground ? gr8 game btw

  • why did u play the music throughout the entire review? seriously was that some kind of sick joke?

  • This just is a game about Asians fighting each other...?

    Mortal Kombat FTW!

    For fighting games....

  • @StevensPrankCalls if you paid attention there arent all asians you know. the game even tells you where there from.

  • good video butt the music is really gay

  • gamespot>ign

  • street fighter 4 or marvel vs capcom 3?

  • @Mamoswine if you plan on playing online then street fighter 4, if you plan on fighting your buddies and the computer then deffinately MvC3.

    i have both and i enjoy MvC3 more even if it lacks some crucial game modes

  • street fighter for is the weak minded. Only steers and queers play this homosexual shit, and I know a thing or two about homosexual shit, I am gay. Now fuck me. But fuck asians.

  • @TheUnTrollAbleTroll Unsuccessful troll is unsuccessful.

  • shit, pc version has only few playable character,lolll

  • i hope its as good on the 3ds

  • 5:54 lol i laugh

  • @onikage2099 I guess The Backstreet Boys and NSYNC are still considered "rockstars" in Japan:P

  • is this still being played online?

  • This game is shit......... Its like 12 moves per person

  • The Main theme in this game is gay

  • @largest85 the theme was pretty stylish and i thought it was the best street fighter theme yet.

  • too hard to pull off moves by chaining them together and moving the analog stick? could ppl plz thumbs this comment up if they think so too or thumbs down if they do not agree... thanks because i wud like to know what ppl think of this game

  • @Cyclops4770 I personally think all Street Fighter games are shit restricted to children

  • 5:55 he wans't fast enough to fire his lazors =/

  • There are so many god damn street fighter games, mostly street fighter 2.,

  • lol he said akoooma. its pronounced ak'ma, douche. Sorry i got geeky for a minute.

  • Dan is such a stupid character

  • @tulio84z i thought he was or is he gay

  • @onikage2099 lol it actually sounds like something those gay jonas brothers would sing.. haha

  • I wanted to love this game but i just don't, in all the classic street fighter games every character had their own level, and you fought them in their own level & the music was relevant to the country the level is based in, but now its all random, you fight anybody anywhere and the music is just messy, and there is not enough fighting arenas, the characters share many of the levels, so lazy of capcom!

  • YEAH BOYBANDS FUCKING RULE

  • I wasn't a big fan of Street Fighter but S/SF4 is one of the best games..EVER. This, my friend, is how you make video games.

  • Should I get this or Super Street Fighter IV?

  • @Revieweverything100 Super Street fighter 4. It has all the things Street fighter 4 Plus its cheaper :D

  • @Revieweverything100  I can't believe you actually asked that question.

  • In all fighting games, it is best for the beginers to play as the protagonists(Ryu,Jin,Akira,etc­.) because they always have the easy move-lists and they sometimes are cheap and overpowerd.

  • i love street fighter 4

    but what is this guy on "the balance is absolutely spot on"??

    sagat and zangief are so overpowered

    they sorted out the balance in ssf4 but this review is dumb

  • this game suck ass i mean how many time they have to recycle the same shit over and over again very similar to megaman i like the megaman games in 8bit graphics i love 8bit but they can put next gen graphics and that will be bad ass and for the street fighter series they have to do something new thats why i think mortal kombat is better because they always do something brand new they do this in street fighter series because the know people going to buy it ia a easy way to make money

  • @Carlos2006ful Don't you see the flaw in what you jus' said ? Street Fighter doesn't have to change a thing to fit in with any other game. The formula in which makes this game what it is, is borderline flawless.

    As for Mortal Kombat.... THAT S*** SUCKS ! It's american made, which [for a fightin' game] is a recipe for disaster, and with out sayin', It simply doesnt have the " It " factor. Sorry.

  • @Carlos2006ful There's a reason the "recycling" works for Street FIghter: you don't just improve perfection. People like it and that's why the series is still going. Changing too much will leave it a different game, and they got other series like Darkstalkers or Capcom VS. Whatever for that. Besides, look at GTA, Need for Speed, MMOs, FPSes... so many franchises that keep churning out the same crap over and over but most aren't even half as successful and iconic as SF, my man.

  • sf4 sucks

  • I hate fighting games that are 2d..you can get cornered and youre dead.

  • Street fighter is so unbalanced.....all you need to win is pick Ryu or his clones and if your any decent with them you will have no trouble winning.....but people seem to ignore that fact because of SF's appeal

  • @LuigiFan1305

    Im a long time Street fighter fan and as much as it pains me to say this...your right. Street fighter 4 is terribly balanced. It is, in my opinion, the worst in the series. Street figher 3 was excellent; It had perfect character balance and a parry system so that all spammers would get completely screwed by the skilled players. The problem is that Capcom went for mass appeal and ruined the game. If 4 was based 3, it would be great. Instead, they made a Ryu & co. spamming contest.

  • @LuigiFan1305 hold up buddy first off don't talk about ken like that. second it takes dedication and skill to master different players. the only unbalance players are seht, sagat, and zangief (close combat).

  • ok here's the thing it is so FUCKIN SLOW i can actually do 1 move to win what i mean is for each character i use a certain move. this is not the greatest that they say it is all hype and big talk this is SHIT street fighter series ended with SF2 this is jus like the MK series that series ended at MK3 that is my view on street fighter 4 & the BULLSHIT SSF 4

  • This is not a game,it is a masterpiece!

  • Comment removed

  • its just SF2 with new Grafics and a few new characters. fuck you Capcom i dont buy this crappy LAGGY Game

  • @r0n53n u mad?

  • like this game is Crap

  • This is the second review I've seen so far that ends with Ken scoring a KO win on someone.

  • Ok can smoe one please give me this information I need to know is the gmeplay cammand normal like if I press forward punch would it be the same attcak as just pressing punch or if I press foward punch would it be the same attcak please reply.

  • lol, what the hell's with those attack names? Super Killer Head Ham?

  • cant wait for super!

  • gay music in the background

  • i love this game so much but i hate how seth is fucking cheap especially on the harder difficulties ive been going at the trophy for mothes now and he just fucking spams the hell out of me every single time

  • @zeawesomeness you played it on harder difficulties?

    the computer does alot more than grapple dude

  • The video quality looks like crap!

  • how is this game balanced, unless u pick ryu or one of his clones with hadoken you will lose....and thats all people do in this game is span hadokens

  • it is the most balanced fighting game yet. you just have to deal with them. learn new ways.

  • This is my last post I don't care if you reply to it but are you kidding it's improssible to beat a skilled Ryu or this clones in this game...this game is not balanced...thanks you

  • yes it is impossible to beat skilled player becuase he is more skilled then you

  • you posted this same comment on another video review of this game, sorry man but no one who can actually play this game will share your opinion.

  • thought it was your last post lol?

  • There are ways to deal with hadoken, take blanka for example.

  • Getting this with a Mad Catz fightpad for CHRISTmas!!!

  • @dudewat212 getting the te stick round 2 for christmas :)

  • Fantastic looking game, but I don't like it. It's too classic for me (i know that was the intention), but after playing the alpha series, xmen vs capcom, etc. I was use to the speed, blocking in air, etc, that I didn't want to play back classic SF. I also didn't like how short the super moves are and easy to avoid. Played bout 40 mins, not for me.

  • fucking dan lol

  • I don't know whether to get this to my PS3 or 360. I have about half as many 360 games but the d-pad on the 360 is shit and usually the d-pad is better for fighting games.

  • i use the control stick, much smoother, online is much better on xbox 360 though (of course) but ps3 is prettier.

  • definitely get it for the PS3 man. you'll see why after you complete the character trials. which if you got the 360 version, would be MUCH harder to do.

  • tekken 6 is a much better fighting game

  • I really expected some kinda metal soundtrack,When I first launched the game I was like "Wha da fa?"

    But the game is superb otherwise ^^

  • i still just love the original street fighter 2.Amazing back in it's day and still amazing now.

  • lol @ 5:56 - " OH SHIT!!!"

  • it would be nice if garuda was in it...

  • I thought I was the only one who thought that. Garuda was one of the best characters in Street Fighter EX and one of the best bosses in a fighting game.

  • omg why do they play this awful Japanese music

  • this is 1 of the best fiting games ever you´re all shit

  • Naw...you're right, lol. Capcom even admitted that it was a bad idea on their part lol.

  • The combo system is outdated, music was better in past game, only one super move for each

    character, and super combo options from

    the Alpha series are gone.

  • for real, what I find amusing is these fanboys who -repped me for saying the truth, I think the game is awesome, but that song at 6:25 or better known as the main theme song is gay as fuck

  • worlds best game

  • more like worlds tragic nightmare

  • i agree, this guy is full of shit compared to ALL the 3d fighters out there it is better, but lets face it this game is slow, clunky, and has terrible graphics, 3rd strike is still the best it makes this game look like the piece of shit it really is.

  • Is this the greatest fighting game of the decade

  • WHat is up with the fucking abominable RnB in the background. You gotta be joking me.

  • Brawl is more of a platform fighter while SF4 is just a fighter

    Brawl is a far less serious game but is still really fun (my favorite game)

    In the begging it says this game takes a minute to learn THAT IS A LIE this game is brutal on people who have never played a capcom fighter (like me) it took me days to be able to just use everybody's moves on training mode

  • no, its piss easy to learn

  • i agree. i just got this game today. its an excellent fighting game but i get a good handle on the combat half the time then other times i get my butt kicked like crazy. i never played any of the other ones so i not familiar with the moves or characters. this is a great game for those who love streeet fighter

  • I meant at 6:25

  • gay ass music on the background

  • It's the SF4 theme song.

  • this game rocks !!!!!!!!

  • Dude!What the fuck was up with Balrogs eyes at 5:56?!I have a feeling this reviewer may have been a little too nice, as a rule, if graphics can give you nightmares, and it's not supposed to be scary, it's a bad thing.Did you say 180$!

    Dude, you can get a Wii with SSBB with it for that price!And still have some money left!And every sane, non street fighter fanboy reviewer on the planet will tell you SSBB is better!If you really do have to spend that much cash, I'd pass this one up.

  • you should see blanka's :)

  • all the opponents pull an 'OH GOD NO!' face when you do your ultra combo near them.

  • Lol 5:57

  • you are comparing ssbb to street fighter 4? Can you be anymore of a dumbass? Completely different fighting games. what are you like 9?

  • Completely different.... but both so awesome.

    I honestly can't tell which I like more!

  • ssbb lol, wii lol

  • ssbb does not require as much skill because timing is not as emphized in it, and there are barely any combos to pull off. not to mention brawl's online is the most pathetic thing i've ever seen and the wii is a piece of shit for having the shittiest online experience ever

  • Also ... shouldnt they be aiming to make people play the game somewhat to its full potential with a control pad?

    I mean god damn its 2009 .. Arcade is hardly even fuckiing around anymore and theyre still making a joy stick an essential purchase... ffs

  • I dont know man honestly.. I was preety disapointed with this game..

    100$ ... I paid for this thing

    You need a god damn expensive joy stick to play the game effectively.. thats like what $80?

    $180 for a fairly good but at times mediocre fighting game..

    guile still has like 2 moves.....

    They made the dragon punch grossely over powered again...

    Cant play the game effectively with a control pad.....

    I Mean honestly after paying $20 for marvel vs capcom 2 this is dissapointin

  • No, you dont need an joystick to play that game... I use only the anolog sticks of my controller and I can play it normally... BTW, I use Chun Li... It might get some time to get used to the sontrols, but the joystick ISNT a must to play properly.

  • 3:41

    And lets you pose your oppenent in mulitable positions.

    O_O

  • And btw this has BY FAR the cheapest boss of any fighting game ever.

    ....sorry i know im complaining but did they really have to add in that gay theme song?? It gets stuck in your head...

  • Someone turn that god damn stereo down. I'm trying to hear what Dan has to say...

  • Play online and face fighters like Ken, Ryu, Sagat and Zangief. You wont fight other characters online because most ppl are frightend of losing.

  • i like chun li and dan , dan is amazing

  • Chun-Li <3

  • i would have played this for a week and then get bored and like 4 or 5 weeks later tried it again and then completed it

  • I've never really got into fighting games just found them not incredibly enjoyable. However never really played street fighter, would you say this is worth it?

  • yeah but fighting games arent addicting to me either but this can be a start for you

  • dont get it, cause after u buy the game u will need to spend another 150 dollars to buy a fuckin arcade stick, in the end its not worth it

  • do you actually need an arcade stick or is it just convenient?

  • if you dont own one, playing online you WILL get raped, and doing any combo thats not basic is almost impossible

  • The arcade stick is about 80 bucks and if u play this game a lot or fighting games in general then I highly suggest u buy one. It made me a lot better very quickly after the purchase.

  • cheers for the help m8 =D

  • I spent 15 dollars for a controller and it works fine.

  • talk about a biased review

  • i don't like challange mode it's kinnda annoying

  • sagat is lgendary in th gam trust me i'm getting online tommorow and watch i'll beat everyone... i'll tell you one of my moves.... - you do that mov where you kick the back of the knee so they just limp forward thn i use the tiger knee thing and blast them forward at the same time i can hit the up... later on i can charge for the ultra and go good.... i might button mash for 10 seconds lol and 15 if your seriously good

  • this review was in febuary and the game didnt even come out yet! and all he said was it was a good example of a good fighting game this generation!

  • Comment removed

  • i rather play this than tekken 6

  • Thats the problem with parents these days. They are so worried about all the possible influences on there kids. But if they actually raise there kids right then they could put there trust in there kids and not have to worry about stupid stuff like that. i hate people like that.

  • I don't think your kid will learn how to shoyruken anyone from this game. Many of kids grew up with this game and nothing happen. Ultimately the children's values and personality rely on the parents. So if the child becomes a criminal it's no ones fault but yours.

  • Totally agreed. Parenting raises kids, not video games.

  • For once a youtube comment that isnt retarded, i agree

  • lol what the fuck?

  • Yeah, two days after my son played this game he ran around the town shooting balls of fire out of his fists and killing people.

  • seriously fuck you you want your son to grow into a pussy a punk thats on you lol bullshit

  • Hahaha!  Jack Thompson, is that you?!

  • Props to the reviewer's wardrobe: wearing a threadless shirt!!!! XD

    course it's not gonna have the nostalgia of a 20 yo game. it just came out.

    Who's to say that the original SF wouldn't have been like this if they'd had the resources back in 87?

  • the ultras make this game better than the rest of the street fighter games.

  • Yes, this game is good looking.

    Yes, it has evolutionary new gameplay.

    But, it doesn't have the nostalgia factor. This game will never be a classic. All you guys who have never heard of Street Fighter before, go and play Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike. The shitty mechanics of this games, made the players shitty. SF used to be non-stop action, great fun. But if you play online against a person with 2,500 BP or more, you'll understand why Street Fighter just fun anymore. SF3 FTW.

  • true

  • dude dont be a buzzkill, if you like street fighter 3 go play street fighter 3.

  • I have, and I will. And I can say what I want.

  • fuck you and fuck 3rd strike ive been waiting for this game since super street fighter 2 turbo 3rd srtike dissapointed me when it came out, this game is amazing your a pussy and your opinion lays on shit.

  • Ooooh wow, you're a badass. Guess what else? You're also a noob. I don't tolerate your kind, so this is the one and only time I'll be speaking to you. Good day.

  • lol you dont tolerate my kind? lol just because im passionate about my opinions loser!!!

  • every one can thats the beauty of the internet

  • ur such a nerd

  • Ok?

  • Your entire paragraph is an opinion,not fact,stop forcing crap to people bro.

  • Does this game have the nostalgia factor? No.

    Does this game have shitty mechanics compared to other SF games? Yes. Play this, then play previous SF's, and you'll notice that you can get away with a lot of shit, which is bullshit.

    Have players become even more a bitch than they used to be? Yes.

    None of that is opinion. So I don't see why you're even talking.

    None of that is opinion.

  • 1:That is an opinion

    2:Also an opinion

    3:Also an opinion

    All of that is opinion,your word is not,and will never be Law.

  • I'm not even gonna bother you, or MountainDewBuddies, cause you guys need a fucking dictionary.

  • Omg flames!!

    No you need one,badly,seriously bro

  • Opinions Bitch

  • Not once was I forcing anything on anybody.

    All I did was speak the truth. If you wanna be blind, be my guest. I'm not gonna stop you.

  • ps dont tell us ken its my fav

  • girls are hot in this game xD

  • yeah, chun li's ass is so big it's hypnotizing :-p

  • lol

  • for me i think there are a few different ways to make a good fighter game but for me i tend to like simplistic with easy to do speicals, well balenced, cool charicters, and good art direction.

    ps i hate ken

  • tekken is one of the worst games because they dont have amazing moves and all that like street fighter or soul calibur

  • Bite your tounge. Not all fighters are the same, you can't compare games like Tekken and Street Fighter, they're too different.

  • ever seen lees f+3,3,3,3,4 guess not

    i like both tekken and sf btw

  • And of course they had to end it with the coolest Ultra in the game (Ken's).

  • This is so much better than tekken.

  • yup

  • LMAO black mans eyes as 5:55 XD
