Fun SF game but not worth 60$.

Gameplay 9/10 : The gameplay is like other street fighters like the hadoken, the uppercut, etc. They added new charge attacks like when u press the medium kick and punch you do a very strong attack. This attack could be used to cancel your moves to combo with other attacks like the uppercut from ken, guile, etc to a super like ryu's hadoken when they are in the air. The online is same as versus and stuff and the flow of the game is good. There is no lag most games i played and there is a bar when you try to find someone to fight against and tells you their connection bar to yours like 1/2/3/4 bars, the higher the less likely i'll lag. RARELY some of the people i played that had 4 bars which is really good lags like when you press a button a second later it executes. But overall its fantastic. Arcade is very bland and should have been better. While you pick a character a anime like scene appears the beginning when you start and ending which is short. The ending of most characters are confusing to ME like why are they there and who is that they are looking at etc. You will understand when you play it.

The FLAWS in the gameplay is that the other characters such as guile, e. honda, fei long BARELY has any combos such as ryu and ken the popular SF guys. Some of the characters such as sagat is kinda overpowered cause his tiger uppercut can damage you a lot and his high punch cause more damage than the average character. It makes other characters unbalanced and not be used a lot throughout online. Online is simple and gets boring just playing 1vs1 all the time. Capcom should come up with other ideas to make it more all rounded.

Graphics 7/10 : The graphics aren't that good due to the release date and they could have made it better due to its release date. Some of the graphics are cool like when you do the new charge attack ink splashes out and its pretty cool.

Sound 8/10 : The sound is good during fighting but some of the music doesn't blend with the fight or stage. The Main theme during menu screen is horrible. The music is like a boy band like backstreet boy stuff. But most of the song is alright.

Overall this game is a must get if you are a Street Fighter fan but not worth 60$. To others there is better arcade fighting games and is also a must get but rental first if you re not sure.
