PlayStation Underground: Street Fighter V | PS4

Sony:
Rise up! On today's episode of PlayStation Underground, Clements sits down with Dan from Capcom to play Street Fighter V on PS4 -- only days before its launch on February 16th!

Curious to see what it looks like when an experienced player pummels a newb? It's a timeless battle, folks, because the embarrassing reality hasn't changed much over the decades. Enjoy the show.

PlayStation Underground oh the memories.......

if i not enjoyed sf4 is there any chance i might like this one?
main reason for not liking SF4 was online lag, kinda slow etc and second reason very difficult to execute those special or ultimate moves (or how you call them?)

You will love SFV then. SFIV was the worst Street Fighter in the main storyline. Focus attacks, no commitment, 1 Frame links, option select galore, and more made SFIV a bitch for new players. The time it takes and the amount of commitment it takes to learn all that and be consistent per character is a huge turn off. SFV is a huge breath of fresh air and is a absolute blast to play.
Netcode is excellent and consistent. It's not a miracle worker so if you have a slow connection or play on wifi then you get what you pay for I'm sure. If you're direct connected though you are set. If the beta is any indication, I've played over 150 matches and have probably had 10 or less laggy ones. I'm on a 50-100gb DL direct connection. Friends with far slower connections reported the same smooth connection rate.
The only potential problem with SFV is that your favorite character might not be on it. They changed characters so much that you might have a new favorite in V.
After work tomorrow, good bye real world.

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_B132d 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.

kevco33131d 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_B131d 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.

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_B131d 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.

Nerdmaster130d 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.

EvertonFC131d 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.

CrimsonWing69130d ago

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