Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix is Out!
The day has finally arrived! We first heard about Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix more than a year ago and it was supposed to be ready for public consumption well before today, but hey, better late than never! If you’re ready to relive some of the greatest fighting game moments from the 90s but in glorious re-imagined high-definition graphics and with some nifty gameplay tweaks, you’ll want to make sure you have the virtual cash kicking around to pick up this title.
Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix (or SSF2THDR for short… an acronym that needs an acronym of its own) is available as of today for the PlayStation 3 via the PSN Store for $14.99. Xbox 360 owners, like myself, will have to wait until tomorrow to find the fighting game with the world’s longest title on Xbox Live Marketplace. It’ll sell there for 1200 Microsoft Points, which is effectively the same price as the PS3 version.
There are supposed to be a few minor tweaks to the game to balance out the gameplay. Some people are saying that Dhalsim has been “nerfed”, whereas Chun-Li gains the improvement of an arching spinning bird kick. You know that upside spinning kick that she does? It’s now an arch to jump over fireballs rather than strictly a horizontal move.
I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty stoked. It’ll be crazy fun to play online and get schooled by people half my age. If you want to challenge me to a match on Xbox Live, you can find me there with Gamertag HadoukenOnline.
