Super Street Fighter IV - Xbox 360

This is one of the games that persuaded me to recently pick up an Xbox 360. As a more casual player of fighting games (my gaming tendencies have mellowed out since the 64-bit era), I must say THIS GAME ROCKS. I've kept up with the core SF series through the years and this is my favorite iteration so far. Here's my two cents:GRAPHICS: Excellent! When I first saw screenshots of this game, I was a bit leery of the characters being too beefy - even the usually svelte ones like Dhalsim or Vega. But in motion, all of the characters look fantastic. The attention to detail in the animation is exceptional (keep a close eye on the slo-mo sequences in the end credits, just beautiful). The painterly appearance touted in the trailers aren't particularly visible from the normal distance, but as soon as the game zooms in on the action, all the glorious detail comes out. While the backgrounds are fun, dynamic, and look great overall, they don't have hard lines like the playable characters do, so the characters sometimes look like they don't belong in the environment. This is hardly an egregious thing, though, the rest of the game considered.AUDIO: As is the case for many fighters nowadays, the games is filled with pseudo-techno tunes. They accent the gameplay well enough, but I do prefer the more rock-driven tunes of titles past. The occasional remix of classic SF tunes in SSFIV is welcome when you get them. There's no shortage of voice acting. Some are a bit cheesy and some are a bit repetitive (Hakan is a major offender, though I love the character), but the majority make the game feel more alive than a stock set of grunts and screams would. Sound effects are great overall with thuds, thwacks, and bone crunches that augment the sight of your character's fist burying itself in your opponent's chin.GAMEPLAY: Reminiscent of classic SF, but with enough alterations to feel fresh. New or returning players will appreciate the pick-up-and-play action, and veterans will appreciate exploring the new characters, some of whom have special moves with refreshingly odd functionality. It's definitely a smoother experience that the previous sprite-driven games. The new mechanics offer a good amount of depth and it would behoove new players to spend some time going through the Training mode to get the hang of the combo timing and new Focus attacks/cancels. The selection of characters is great and offers a vast amount of variety. Balancing is excellent and I never felt as if the World Warrior I was using was at a disadvantage against my CPU opponent. Seth, the final boss, is an odd choice (I felt the same way about Gill in SFIII) and did seem a bit cheesy at first, but once you go through him with a few characters, he's actually a reasonable end boss.Overall, this is a fun fighter and a great game. The graphics are flashy, fun, but have a lot of subtlety if you care to look. The fights range from raucous and wild to calculating and nuanced. The moves hit hard and the defeats - if you'd learned something in the preceding fight - can be as satisfying as the victories. I suppose I was lucky that I waited so long to pick up an Xbox 360 since it gave Capcom a chance to release SSFIV :D

I'm a huge Street Fighter fan, heck anyone can tell that if they see my room (huge SF poster print by Alvin Lee), and have the original Street Fighter IV for PC, 360, and PS3. When the Super version was announced, needless to say I was rather upset. There I was, dumbfounded at all the money and hype spent on a game, only to have a new version of it come out a year later. But...I thought I'd give it the benefit of the doubt, with the amount of versions SFII had that I picked up, I may as well have seen what was so "super" about Super Street Fighter IV.I was happy to see that...it's more than simple DLC, it's more than just some expansion of a game, this was a huge, huge improvement over the original. Featuring ten new characters, new costumes, new stages, balancing of characters, new Ultras, the return of bonus stages...you can tell Capcom spent their time and effort on this title. Best of all, I got the game for $35, thanks to Amazon's promo code. They got rid of the annoying and time-consuming challenge mode, with just the trials to get passed, and also upgraded the online system, implementing grades for each character you play on Ranked and such.Seth in the end of Arcade isn't as annoying as he was in the original title (it didn't take me 60+ tries to beat him with Dhalsim this time!...and yeah, everyone else I managed 10 tries or less in the original...Dhalsim just killed me xD), Sagat was still a beast but not as impossible as before, it really shaped up well. Newcomers Juri and Hakkan were welcoming additions to the roster, both with unique playstyles. You have to wonder, though, where they will take the SF series next. Are they really going to keep things between II and III? I mean, Juri and Seth can use more fleshing out, and Ryu's got the Metsu powers now...I don't see the series hitting passed III in terms of story anytime soon. I was disappointed by the lack of new achievements/trophies, because...it's pretty much the same as the original, and the extra content for having the original was just two extra colors to the characters, 11 & 12. But eh, pleased with it overall.The arcade version of this game is seeing Yun and Yang, an evil Ryu, and a different Akuma. Hopefully we get them as DLC. For now, though, enjoy this game, as it's the closest thing to SFII we've seen in years.

Este juego me trae recuerdos, las gráficas mejoradas y los movimientos muy fluidos. Lo recomiendo para todos los que jugamos este titulo por ahí de 1992. Me trae buenos recuerdos. Llego antes de lo acordado la verdad no pensé que llegaría 3 días hábiles después de haberlo pedido no trae manual de juego. Vienen en español los menús, excelente juego.

Received this product in a short amount of time, great & prompt delivery. It was just what I wanted at a great price and in superb condition. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who has enjoyed any Street Fighter in the arcade or on any system. For the price you get a lot of current-retro fun!

item came earlier than expected and with no problems.

Divertido si te gustan otros de la misma serie, aunque ya hay otros mas recientes esta bueno para jugar con un amigo.

This is a Christmas gift so I can't really review this item as yet
