The best fighting game this console generation has arrived
Since there’s not much a campaign/storyline for Street Fighter IV, I’m able to give a review on it after just playing it for about 10 hours or so. I’ve beaten it with half the characters on Arcade mode already, am about halfway through the Time Attack, and a quarter way through the Survival mode. As for the Trial mode? Forget about it. I’ll get back to it eventually. But for now, I’m having too much fun playing it online!
Good
- classic Street Fighter II gameplay that really feels like a sequel
- phenomenal presentation
- serious online support: Battle Point system, custom titles/icons, and matchmaking
Bad
- lack of a single player quest/campaign mode
- lack of a quarter match online mode that allows for 4 players in a room at the same time
- lack of a quick continue in single player or player matches
