"Throw City"
5 stars"

Story's unfinished. Survival mode's a grind. Multiplayer is excellent! Characters are balanced.

Easy to pick up, hard to master. A must buy if you're into fighting games, enjoy competition, and are prepared to learn from mistakes. Otherwise stay away.

Haven't enjoyed a fighting game this much in a long while. I'd recommend playing online ranked games rather then casual – you're more likely to get matched up with similarly skilled players.

"Great game with 1 flaw"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Great game but having to connect online just to access other game modes or features is a let down. Other than that my kids love playing each other in the vs mode. And that's that.

"To much change"
2 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

They made to much change to the game made it for lazy people, special moves actives with a motion and 1 button or 2. Taken away some special moves from characters. Bring back the old days.

"Same same but prettier"
3 stars"

The game is an eye candy leap forward for street fighter fans but like most returning players to the series its the game play that draws me back.

After what can only be described as painfully fustrating opening week the servers are now running better. Player matches happen with in minutes. THe matches are not always fair and you get owned by veterans of the game. Which is a major turn off for the game but I think to enjoy this game you must embrace losing as a learning opportunity, other wise you will throw your controller at the screen on the first night. Trust me you will want to!

The lack of single player arcade game play is beyond dissapointing leaving you to either online or 2 players fights as your only options.

Sony has alot to answer for with only allowing me to use legacy (PS3) arcade sticks once that I pair it with a PS4 controller. Fustrating becuase I have 2 arcade sticks and 1 PS4 controller which meansi need to spend another $100 on a new controller. Once you have paired them you only use the options button on your wirless controller to access the battle menu. This could have been done on the acrade stick start buttonm but typical Sony want me to buy more sony controllers.

I wanted to return this game in the first week but now in week 2 and that they have sorted some of the teething problems it it only OK. Im starting to think that online fights arent for me as I hate losing and the masters of the game beat you with long unbloackable combos that come relentlessly and its not uncommon to not get a hit in. For the record I have some skills im not a noob at this game.

Hope this help someone.

"It's okkk.."
3 stars"

"Play the earlier games instead"
2 stars"

Disappointing choice of game one round fights characters missing prefer street fighter 2 an 3 but is still playable.

"Awesome addition to the Street Fighter franchise"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The game itself is good fun, from the classic characters to that familiar arcade feel. Easy to understand, perfect for challenging friends and family. The only downside would be the limited roster and the DLC being too expensive. If you love fighting games, then this is a must-have!

"Classic game, Love the online League Challenge."
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This game is a classic and is re-invented well, Great single player modes and online League Comp. Only gripe is, it is setup so you kind of have to pay for the extra maps and characters.
