just got my hands on this game & the graphics are tight! game play is very reminiscent of the classic streetfighter games you grew up on, but the range on the strikes has been toned down a bit, especially for jump kicks and low kicks with Ryu, Ken & Guile, which helps to even out the playing field somewhat. new Ultra attacks adds to the KO factor in this game, & the cut sequences are much nicer... starting out a new single player mode will initiate a mini-movie anime clip w/for each character, which is pretty cool, & if you're online you can set the game so you can be challenged by other online users while in single player mode as well as multi player mode, another cool ass feature.
some hidden characters in this game that i have yet to reveal other than Seth the boss character, but all the classic SF characters are playable by default, along with 4 new characters you've never seen before that have some pretty bomb ass moves of their own... i especially like the new Mexican Lucha Libre wrestler dude, El Fuerte... he reminds me a little of Fei Long the way he moves around & his quick sudden attack moves... there's also a character named Abel, who's got short range combat sambo/wrestling moves like Zangief, a female character named Crimson Viper, who has some moves like Sakura, & Rufus, a chubby martial arts dude who's got some weird, unique moves unlike any other character i've played in the past.
y'all need to get this game so we can have an online tournament 1 of these days.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
