What I think of Street Fighter V's new techniques and systems (GamesBeat)

GamesBeat: Street Fighter is one of those game obsessions where I could talk for hours about the smallest technical details -- and subsequently kill normal human beings, who don’t care about fighting games, with boredom. So if you want a detailed analysis of the basics from the version of Street Fighter V Capcom is currently running, you came to the right person.

I was last good at a Street Fighter game back in early '90s, but this is looking pretty sweet.

I still think III is my favorite.

SF alpha 3 was my favorite of all time. Air Blocking FTW.

SF3 was sublime on dreamcast. I loved it! SF alpha 3 has a special place in my heart too. I would say that one is my fave but I feel in love with SF3s smooth animations and super refined gameplay. But I didnt like the character roster as much as SFA 3. SF4 was great too. But I prefer SFA's more aggressive mechanics.

Pro Tip: Do not start a head line with " What I think...". When using those words you immediately make the article about you rather than the game.

Street Fighter 5: Analysing a Tarnished Legacy

Street Fighter 5 launched in 2016, and is widely considered a misstep for the hugely popular franchise. This article explains why that is.

Terry_B549d ago

Every Street Fighter is called a misstep of the series since Street Fighter III..and even the Alpha games were not liked by everyone.

SF V had a miserable start but later it did a lot things actually better than SFIV and SF6.

SF6 is the first SF since SFII Turbo for that I did not buy at launch. And today, around 6 months after its launch I still have no motivation to buy it.

I've had every Street Fighter on launch since SFII on the SNES. SFV is definitely my least played of them all.

SF6 is very good. You should give it a second look.

Maybe in 2-3 years when there is a version that has characters I care for.

So far there is not one of the new characters I like..and my favourite 4 are not a part of it either. (Bison, Balrog, Sagat and Vega) + the whole hip hop style and the crappy music turned me totally off.

Looking forward a lot to Tekken 8.

SF4 vanilla was loved by most and and not considered a misstep. It wasn't until they went revision crazy that people started turning on Capcom.

Terry_B548d ago

Don't remember the criticques it got for the big hands and feet, the sometimes weird looking faces, the lame boss (Seth) and that so many characters were shotos and yup..the many new versions. Just every SF got its haters no matter how good it was.

Nerdmaster548d ago

It was criticized for the first trailers having an interesting art style with those ink splashes, but the real game had none of that and people felt cheated. And Capcom decided to add some of those effects in the game later because of the backlash. But I don't remember any other big complaints about it.

I grew out of fighting games, loved them as a kid but online you just get your ass kicked over and over leaving just the bare bones single player and also having no friends anymore who like fighting games either just makes me not want to buy or play them anymore.

CrimsonWing69548d ago

I dunno, I like Street Fighter 5 quite a bit. 🤷‍♂️
