I've never played it before, and people seem to be pretty hardcore about this game, so I'm not sure if it's worth getting to just play casually. Is it as inaccessible to new players as people make it sound?

The game is meant for anyone that likes fast actioned fighting games. It's definitely a fun game if you have friends to play with but I also personally like beating up on the computer every now and then. Now with online, I'm sure it'll be more fun.

I just read a review that said the computer was incredibly cheap (as in, cheaper than Seth from SF IV). Any truth to that?

i wouldnt say Seth cheap, but arcade mode boss is a bit difficult.

I got it today and it's the first time I've played it besides the demo. It's really fun but it's not a fighting game that you can just pick up and start dominating. I'd say it's less noob friendly than some other fighting games I've played (I'm not a huge fighting fan but I have a handful of them). It's definitely worth getting even if you're a casual fighting game player like I am. I'm jsut saying it might take a bit of time to adjust and get decent.

Normally i would say this is a common mistake, as i often have trouble with game abbreviations nowadays, but this game just came out and has been the talk of the forums soooooo..... i think u have the right to feel how u do :P

Great game, but it isn't a pick-up and play randomly game, unless you're playing with friends. That's what really shines with this version, solid online play.

If your getting this for casual play I hope you have some friends around because there are people online who have played this game for many, many years so get prepared to lose alot.

I myself was thinking about purchasing this of the PSN Store as it was one of my favorite fighters back in the day of the Dreamcast BUT I do own already own a Dreamcast version and the inclusion of online play and a horrible HD upgrade doesn't really justify it for me.

Just a warning: there's a nasty bug that causes the PS3 to crash whenever you try to search for matches online.
