Super Street Fighter IV

By Steve Wollaston on May 4, 10 01:45 PM

Super Street Fighter IV is billed as the ultimate Street Fighter game.

I would go along with that in many ways.

The gameplay itself hasn't really advanced that much. Everything that you love is exactly the same and just as slick and responsive as ever.

The package on offer here is the real reason the game can carry that 'ultimate' catchphrase.

It's packed full of 35 characters both new and old, each with their own ultra combos and unique fighting styles.

Gameplay has been perfected with extra spit and polish.

The Car Crusher and Barrel Buster minigames are back and one area that has really evolved is the multiplayer and online aspects.

There is a lot of depth to the game and even more quality. It's hard to say anything bad about the really. Yes it is very much more of the same, but this is a game that will probably die before it re-invents itself completely.

It has evolved, added new layers and is as brilliant as it ever was.
