@Pete – …Don’t even get me started on the controller man.

I think the trouble is that you really need to play the game with a proper arcade stick, not the regular controller.
I don’t want to be shelling out even more money for a peripheral right now.

@Forest – I WILL say Forest, as a glimpse into my review that the presentation and graphics are FANtastic! They DO stay true to the original but bring life to the characters in a way we haven’t seen before.

And don’t worry about not playing a SF since II… I mean don’t get me wrong, there were a bunch of good ones in there like the Alphas and SF III but it’s never too late to jump back into the mix. IF fighting games are your thing that is. (#):)

I havn’t really played since SFII (I know I am lame!!) But the graphics on this one look awesome and true to the original… I may download the demo a little later (If one if available).

Absolutely my man, I’m trying to play it now but have been stopped by wife and children. It really does seem promising, and at least compared to its 3D predecessors (SF EX, SF EX + Alpha) it’s very smooth and plays just like a 2D fighter.

I’m not a big SF fan like you Bush, I played a lot of SF2 in the arcade, on the SNES and other platforms in college. But with IV so far…I dunno I played a few matches last night but I’m just not feeling it so far.

But I’m sure with some quiet time to sit down with the game and get to grips with it then it will all come good. Those incredibly high review scores can’t all be wrong.
Keep us informed!
