Neocrisis: Street Fighter IV Review.

Neocrisis writes: Street Fighter IV was a long time coming but I have to tell you that the wait was worth it. Capcom has crafted one of the if not the best fighters of all time. Every thing in the game is polished to a mirror shine and the balance is nearly flawless.

The idea of Characters for DLC excites me. I hope they do get around to doing that. It would also make alot more sense for the Championship edition to be DLC as well sense all it really is is balancing and a few new characters and modes.

Perhaps they could have a DLC version as well as a Retail version kind of like the Game of the Year editions for games we see everey now and then.

What's with the early review Neocrisis?

Reibooi5561d ago

I don't really think the review could be considered early. The game has been out for 2-3 days depending on where you are and considering the fact that it's a fighting game it doesn't take that long to play through the Arcade mode with all the characters. Honestly once you get the fighting system down and have played a few hundred matches you can pretty much review a fighting game. They inherently don't have much content the reason you stay is for the competition online and such.

Ninja-Sama5560d ago

but usually I see necrosis reviewing games like months after they've released so that's why I wondered how they reviewed SF4 so "early".

green-cigarettes 5560d ago

please does anyone know how to shut off the option of receiving challenges of people while you are playing other modes? because every ten damn seconds i get " a new warrior has enter the arena" and it is annoying as hell. worst thing is it doesnt let me finish anything because when im about to finish the fight, i get interrupted and it restarts over and over again so please help?

How Street Fighter IV Saved 2D Fighting Games (Ft. Maximilian Dood)

After Street Fighter II released in in 1991, it caused a fighting game explosion, both in arcades and in home consoles. But, as the decade ended, and arcades were failing, so too were 2D Fighting games. This is how Street Fighter IV completely revitalized the genre.

I'd say Blazblue helped too. Didn't care for Street Fighter 4, but Blazblue was amazing during that time. Sad that the series kind of went downhill after the first 2 or 3 games though.

DarXyde328d ago

BlazBlue was phenomenal. Platinum'd Calamity Trigger because I loved it so much. I remember buying Continuum Shift back in the day at launch for like $40. They did have DLC characters (Valkenhayne, Makoto, and Platinum at the time) and it came out to just a tad more than it would at full price. Didn't mind at all.

Great fighting game.

Snookies12328d ago

Continuum Shift was definitely my favorite. Spent way too many hours on that game, haha... Had the counters for days with Hakumen.

DarXyde328d ago

I really like Makoto, Valkenhayne, and Hazama. Super fun characters

Terry_B327d ago

Valkenhayn ..just sayin'

Terry_B328d ago

BlazBlue was the much better, more technical game..and a real 2D Fighting Game after all. But yes, since it was a big name..the characters were still popular and the game itself was good, SFIV indeed helped a lot. However, I am pretty sure the much better-selling Mortal Kombat 9 would have been done without SFIV as well..and that one truly helped to make the fighting game genre in general more popular again.

Ryuha1234h328d ago

You’re sound dumb. Blazblue was not better than sf4. You’re just saying that because you’re a street fighter hater.

A SF Hater eh? Fight me in SF 2,3 4 or 5 and you will regret that stupid comment ;)

gold_drake328d ago (Edited 328d ago )

eyyy max xD

one of the very few streamers i can actually watch without it being cringe and awful ha.

GhostScholar327d ago

The content of IV was severely lacking when it launched. It got better over time.

they botched SFV so bad, just start over, make a new version with proper single player mode and fully fleshed out with support for all of the consoles this time.

King91659d ago (Edited 1659d ago )

Gamer7804@ they already did kinda it call sf5ae it help sf5 sell like another 2 million copies.

Teflon021659d ago

SFV is actually great now. Bunch of modes, bunch of characters, alot of stages, not sure what else there is to even complain about. Costume MTX? Not a issue imo, I don't get what I don't want anyways

gamer78041659d ago

botched launch, and they launched only on one console and currently after a long time still on one console.

Enigma_20991659d ago

Did you see how Ultra and the Collection sold? We don't need to convince Nintendo of anything. Just put it on the console.PHYSICALLY.

King91659d ago

Enigma_2099@ they probably have to make a new sf game just for the switch they probably will need Nintendo to help fund it just like sony help fund sf5.

PhoenixUp1659d ago

You’re not seeing Street Fighter V come to other platforms besides PC because Sony helped co-fund the game so it’s staying only on PS4 & PC

NapalmSanctuary1659d ago (Edited 1659d ago )

Don't know why anybody would want SF5 on Switch. Especially if they owned a Switch.

rainslacker1659d ago

That doesn't makes sense. Is Nintendo saying that Capcom can't publish the game on the system because it's users don't want the game? if so, that's really stupid of them, because why should they care?

Nintendo isn't saying such things of course.

Capcom shouldn't pass the buck. If they don't want to make more SF games on the Switch, then just say so, and say why.

If they want Nintendo to fund the project, then they are the ones that need to convince Nintendo to give them money.
