Ultra Street Fighter IV Reviews
Ultra Street Fighter IV is, for a casual player, the best Street Fighter IV, thanks to a large roster of well-balanced fighters.
The added characters and backgrounds, as well as the rebalanced gameplay and features do an excellent job of rounding out the final package. Regardless of how many other versions of "Street Fighter 4" are available on other systems, "Ultra Street Fighter IV" is by far the king of them all.
Ultimately, what we've got here is absolutely zero failure in making the ultimate version of one of the greatest fighting games known to man. This is every bit ultra street fighting and Capcom deserve all manner of goodwill for continuing to develop their stunning game for casual sofa fighters and professional contestants alike. In our opinion this provides the quality needed to ensure it remains a tournament favourite for years and it's definitely one which will stand shoulder to shoulder with Third Strike even if it's unlikely to ever eliminate it. In so doing, it remains a game for the less capable to play. It's still fun. It still guarantees joy and excitement and wow moments combined with facepalms. It's fundamentally brilliant. It shouldn't be touched again though. Let us enjoy this and hope Capcom go away now and do once again what they did here, and generate a new fighting game for the new generation of consoles.
Don't think of Ultra Street Fighter IV as "just another add-on." Ono and his team have put delicate work into this final expansion, with new characters that fit right in, balancing that truly makes sense, YouTube uploading and plenty of fun fighting options to choose from. Enjoy the brawl.
