story: its street fighter. its as stupid as it gets. but if you must know your a fighter in a , trust me. its stupid.

presentation: first of all the opening song is catchy. you will be humming and singing it in the car. the rest of the music cant compete with that greatness. the fireballs and hits are standard fighting grunts and the after fight cutscenes where the fighters have something to say to the other fighter they just beat is terrible. its street fighter.

graphics: awesome awesome style. it looks like a well animated 2D game but it is in fact 3D. the water color look of the game is unique to say the least. you will either like the style or you wont. i personally love the look. alot of the backgrounds are boring though.

so whats in the box?: you have the arcade mode, a horrible training mode. a good challenge mode where you have to defeat enamies in certein situations  such as time attack and survival mode. online mode. and...thats about it.

control: the best controlling street fighter out. the focus moves (the only innovative thing in the game as far as i can tell) are a little hard to pull off like they should be.

multiplayer: to me its best played with a bunch of buddies at the house. online mode has been pretty steady for me with lag only happening every once in a while.the competition is strong though. may wanna practice first.

overall: its a fighter. if youve never been a fan this wont change your mind. i dont agree with the choice of fighters (where is DJ?) and the new fighters other then viper are a bust but the game should be scored on its own terms. to me it is too much like street fighter 2 in a new coat of paint and does nothing to move forward. but at the same time its street fighter, its online, and its fun to play. i love the game and i got it for $40 which helps with the value for me. i just wish there was more to it.
