Street fighter IV July 21, 2010
Luke Thrower
Street fighter has come along way since its begginings as a coin-op arcade machine in the back alleys of japans arcade scene. Street fighter 4 or IV was released out into the wild in 2008 and made its way to the consoles the next year.
Street fighter is a arcade fighting game and is heavy on action, mixing up a range of powerful martial arts moves and crazy combo's, but also using ranged power ball attacks for the more defensive players.
It aims to be more of a purist fighter game, the button mashing that occurs in Tekken will lead to failure almost instantly as you need a good understanding of basic combo's on which to build, otherwise the fight will be over very quickly.
All the characters in the game have their individual style , meaning there is always at least one to suit you and give a fighting chance. 26 characters feature in the game including regular favourites Ken, Ryu, Chun li and Guile as well as a few new faces to fight against.
Some of these are good in the air , whilst others are stronger on the ground, as always it is important to find a character with a compromise in the style you like. Every character has their strengths and weaknesses, what makes Street fighter fun is trying to find the opponents weak point whilst covering yours.
The games main mode is the Arcade mode, it's actually the only mode beside the challenge and online features so will be where you speend your time.
The Arcade mode lets you pick your fighter and then fight to unlock others along the way, this is pretty standard and includes the options of how long fights will last and how many rounds. There isn't too much to it really as Street fighter never has been one for the campaign scene like Tekken.
Challenge mode is the training section of the game, it has different areas designated for helping you learn the different aspects of the game. This is mainly done by following instructions and recreating moves or combos, as you carry on, the moves become more difficult as does the opponents your training against.
Multiplayer is both offline and online, both experiences run smoothly and feature a few different modes. Firstly there is the basic versus mode which pits you against an opponent, the matchmaking service is considerably quick and makes sure your with someone of equal ability and connection speed, the latency is also low which is important as Street fighter matches are rarely slow affairs.
Another addition is challenges, pick from a pre-made group of time attacks and survival modes and this will put you in with groups of others trying to complete these. This fits into a leaderboard system which shows you how good you are compared to the rest of the Street fighter community.
Finally there is tournament mode, this puts you into a group of individual fights and lets you battle out the rounds to come out as champion. Many of these tournaments are also run by magazines like Playstation magazine and PSN also has a few Street fighter nights. So you can feel part of a bigger community and gain more respect for your fighter if you can win against higher esteemed gamers.
The controls seem daunting to begin with and are based around a six button attack system, this allows the player to pull of a range of kicks, punches, power balls and specials. Once you begin to get used to it , you learn how easy it it for the moves to flow together and combine and soon allow you to create powerful chain combo's which are really difficult to get out of.
Two really simple moves that any new Street fighter should learn are the basic, Shuryouken and Hydouken. The Shuryouken is a powerful jumping punch which does a decent amount of damage and is good way to finish a standing combo, Hydouken is a little less close up , this move sends out a small powerball which goes across the screen and helps keep your opponent at range. These can be combined with jumps and sending out multiple ones at different angles, so your opponent gets attacked from all sides.
In addition to the regular fighting style of Street fighter, there is also now focus attacks and ultra combo's. Focus attacks are moves that let you take on an attack with small amounts of damage, before countering whilst the opponent finishes the move. This is useful when you are stuck in a combo attack and need to change the tide of the fight, it starts with your character changing their fighting stance and then as you hold down the counter buttons the move charges, making it more powerful, these are unblockable and so an important tool if your being beaten.
Secondly you have the super combo's, this is built up in the revenge meter. The revenge meter fills as you attacked and take damage, as this builds it is able to be released in a super combo which deals heavy damage and means even when all seems lost you can pull the fight back. These begin with a 3D cutscene which shows your character perform an animation and then release their combo, which are generally full of exciting kicks, punches and power ball attacks, however this isn't full proof and can be blocked.
Everything is designed in true 1080 HD making every move and all the settings look fantastic and vibrant, this is best shown during big combo's or power moves where the whole screen becomes full of movement and lights. The colours are really vivid and the fabrics of costumes look quite realistic albeit in a cartoony way, they move with the characters and is really effective seeing the belts fly around.
The game is mostly played with a 2D view , but certain moments cause the game to move into 3D which is done really smoothly and you hardly notice the transistion. It really helps give the move a sense of importance as well as intensity as you know whats coming and how you may defend against it, if your on the unlucky recieving end.
The game features a good amount of area's to fight in which fit with the characters, these include alleys, deserts and building tops. This gives the game a good sense of range and feels as though the fights are set around the world and have some importance.
As a change from previous games, the game actually uses English voice actors for the characters. I have mixed feelings about this as in one way it's nice to understand them, but on the other hand the languages gave the game a sense of culture and made it more realistic. This is more a question of taste I think but personally I slightly prefered having the japanese voice overs.
Apart from that the general vibe from the game is nice and atmospheric, a simple soundtrack means all the attention is on the game and the sounds of kicks connecting is very nice and powerful.
Sets of DLC were released onto PSN, these were only costume packs and didn't add anything game changing or worth getting.
This is a really good fighting game, however that is all. It doesn't have the campaign or real story enthasis that Tekken does and is also a lot quicker paced. It is a question of feeling that boils down to wether you get this game , some will like it some will prefer Tekken, It's like the FIFA and PES of the fighting world.
 Street Fighter IV June 2, 2010

Es un buen juego para jugar con los amigos, el unico problema es la falta de un pad especial, como el que se vende, para jugar, lastima que sea demasiado caro y salga poco rentable para lo que se va a usar...
A great game, if you're prepared to invest your life in it. May 29, 2010

The first thing that hits you about SF4 is the stunning presentation. There isn't much else that will look or sound as good on a huge HD TV. The character animations are superb, as are the backgrounds - the level of detail put into this is unquestionable.
How does it play though, in relation to the classic arcade SF2?
Well, the flavour of the original has definitely been retained. All the characters moves are completely responsive, tailored for split second recations. The gameplay has been designed more for sport than for simple entertainment - beneath the bright colours and cartoon graphics this is precision bit of kit. It's blindingly fast too. The collision detection is flawless, as expected, allowing you to vary the weight of your strikes depending on their depth, just like SF2. Succesive hits landed (or taken) will build up your revenge meter and allow you to unleash a super, or ultra, combo to turn the tide or score a stunning KO. Alternatively, focus attacks can use this energy to break an opponent's guard or neutralise a super combo. All in all, it's a masterful fighting system built for pros but which is till accessible to beginniners.
The arcade mode is derivative of SF2 also. You fight a selection of opponents culminating in a semi final battle against a natural rival and then against the new boss, Seth.
One of the biggest problems with SF4 is Seth and this is not due to fanboy dismay that M Bison is no longer considered boss material (in fact he is one of the weakest, most toothless characters in the game) but more to do with his programming. In SF2, Bison was programmed specifically to make you keep pumping coins into the arcade machine. His lightening fast attacks could turn a win into a defeat in seconds or blow you away before you could even land a hit on him - this was hugely frustrating but also incredibly addictive. With SF4, Capcom have tried to channel that frantic sensation but they have forced the issue. In round one Seth will essentially do nothing - in round two and the final round he will spring into action like Bison incarnate. Being handed the first round just to guarantee an exciting finale is a bit patronising.
The game is also pretty hard on arcade setting. I have played SF for many years, but this one is just about manageable for me on Easy. Even at this level certain characters attacks (Abel's roll and throw, Zangief's spinning piledriver) are unavoidable. Practice is the key, of course and this title will need plenty.
There is extensive online support but if you are to stand a chance you will need a good connection. Online battles tend to be a race to fill the ultra move bar which lessens the strategy - also no-one online will settle for scoring a KO without a super combo at the very least.
Overall, SF4 is almost incredible. You definitely won't regret buying it. The only reservation I have is the sheer amount of investment needed to get any good at it and the pregramming of Seth. It would be a good game to be stuck on a desert island with.
