Like many of Capcom game I have played, SF4 constantly calls on the player to display skills which have been developed through previous games experience. Without this you will be left wondering aimlessly with no progress inside many of their games with no support being offered. Good examples of this are LOST PLANET and DEAD RISING.

SF4 simply as far as I can see really not suited to the XBOX 360 Controller and to a standard definition TV. Also even though I have played previous SF games I am amazed by how difficult it is to perform the SUPERS. I have tried for over an hour in training mode to get Guile to perform his SUPER/REVENGE moves to no result .............I pity the players who will tackle SF for the first time.

Even though games like FABLE 2 are too easy at least they are accessible.

  An amazing multiplayer experience, marred by a frustrating and poorly thought out single player game.
