Ultra Street Fighter IV further redefines the fighting game genre with classic 2-D Street Fighter fighting action, a host of new and returning characters, beefed up online modes, and more.

Street Fighter has long been one of the most popular fighting games in the genre, with title releases on just about every platform since 1987. The most recent Street Fighter IV demonstrates Capcom’s commitment to keeping the series alive, with a staggering five iterations on the original build making Ultra Street Fighter IV one of the most balanced and refined titles in the series.

The definitive version of Street Fighter IV, but not the best until its technical problems are solved.

But its price on the Australian Playstation store is truly the only thing that feels slightly off about it. While the game is offered at US$25, here in Australia it’ll set players back at least AU$40. Don’t get me wrong, it still represents fantastic value, but it just feels like an unnecessary price gouge. Not to mention that this version of the game still doesn’t stand toe to toe with the previous gold standard – the Xbox 360 version.

“Ultra Street Fighter IV is, for a casual player, the best Street Fighter IV, thanks to a large roster of well-balanced fighters.”

Yet another update of the Street Fighter IV series is released, but is it really worth the extra coat of paint?

All in all, Ultra Street Fighter IV looks and feels fantastic, and despite the fact that many of its “new” pieces of content have been seen and used before, it’s still very much an exciting riff on an already-solid fighting game. I’d go so far as to say this marks a new jumping-off point for those looking to get into the genre, but haven’t touched a Street Fighter in years, let alone the original iteration of Street Fighter IV. If you’re ready to take the plunge, do so with confidence. And if you’re a returning player, know that you’ve still got plenty to uncover. Shoryuken!

These complaints might seem petty, but Capcom have copied and pasted a game from one system to another, and done so knowing that people really will shell out for this on the basis that it is a Street Fighter game. There’s something quite mesmerising as to how such complexity can be played out almost effortlessly by people who practice enough at the game to get good at it, but, frankly, everyone is better off waiting for next year’s Street Fighter V.
