Totally pumped up to play AoT Vita! Glad to see a good score.

Nice score for SF V. 35/40 was the score for old Street Fighter II and SF IV, which were great games: http://translate.google.co.... http://geimin.net/da/db/cro...

I want to understand something...

" "Street Fighter 5" 35 points

Drawback that the female characters are not cute about surprised"

Did they dock points from the review because the female characters arent cute?

That would be the stupidest thing i have ever heard.

Geobros2999d ago

Personally, I don't know well Japanese and i don't trust google translation. So we don't know which are exactly the words of Famitsu reviewer.

MoveTheGlow2999d ago (Edited 2999d ago )

There was a translator who covered a few points, it seemed like the lack of single-player options was the main culprit for the 8's and 9's. (Oh, Rookie Monster beat me to it!)

I bet the 10 person was like "Uh, people do single-player?"

Honestly, unlockables are my jam when it comes to single-player, so this game has me covered. I'm not sure *anyone* but the pros are able to judge the game for the sake of competitions, though. The nuance in SFIV was never the half-circle moves, it was in how a player analyzed and read their opponents.

Geobros,

Here is the translation for the SFV famitsu review.

SFV Famitsu review 
+Easy controls compared to most recent fighting games 
+Many competing moments outside of execution
+V Triggers help giving characters individualities & easy to know decisive points 
-Single player contents not enough
-A reviewer worries that because of simple system & controls, hi-level fights might not be a show of skills.

DarkOcelet2999d ago

I wonder if they will update the score once the Single Player Story comes in June.

jeremyj29132999d ago

Hit disagree by mistake because I didn't agree with the reviewer's comment about high level play. Gave a bubble vote for the translation tho.

Rookie_Monster2999d ago

Good score for SFV. Can't wait for the game to drop on my PS4 next week!

ShadowKnight2999d ago (Edited 2999d ago )

Well, it's a Famitsu review. Whats genuinely funny about famitsu review is that they gave sf4 a 34/40SFV review score after saying it had easy controls ( Again Last time I checked they said the same thing about Street Fighter 5 lol) It's like they're repeating everything they said last time.. This game will be the best fighting game this year regardless. Looking forward to more review scores. Every fighting game I played had easy controls except for Dead or Alive and UFC. Killer Instinct, Soul Calibur, and Mortal Kombat had easy controls IMO.

Plus, all 8s are great scores.

MoveTheGlow2998d ago

Yes, Famitsu can be very, very weird. I wouldn't expect a Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games game to get that high a score either... I mean, it could be surprisingly great, but there's such a precedent for mediocrity in those games.

Germany72998d ago

Great scores for Attack on Titan and Street Fighter V, both are must-buy for PS4.

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_B118d 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.

kevco33117d ago

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.

Terry_B117d ago

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.

Sano24117d ago

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_B117d 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.

Nerdmaster116d 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.

EvertonFC117d ago

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.

CrimsonWing69116d ago

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

Shiro173116d ago

Sf6 is the best sf since sf4ae lol
