Jakejames Lugo of The Koalition writes: When Street Fighter V was originally released back in 2016, it received heavy criticism for its lack of content outside of the online and offline multiplayer modes. You can check out our original review of Street Fighter V here on The Koalition, which details exactly what made its release so divisive among fighting game fans. But you should never truly count a champion out, especially a franchise like Street Fighter which has notoriously had multiple releases for many entries in the franchise. And like so many times before (despite some saying that it wouldn’t happen this time…), Street Fighter V gets a shot of adrenaline in the form of Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition. But instead of just getting new characters and new updates, this version of the game gives everyone so much more.
The Outerhaven writes: Capcom has revealed the final character to be added to the Street Fighter V roster and his name is Luke. According to Capcom, Luke will be a key player in the future of Street Fighter and judging from the fan's reactions, he's going to be a welcomed addition.
After 5 and a half years, we are now waiting for a new street fighter game, not new characters to the old game. continue mortal kombat
A lot of people are hyped for Akira, seeing as it's been so long since Rival Schools.
That’s because Akira is from the era when Capcom still had amazing character design. Personally been pretty disappointed with most of the new fighters, design-wise, for SF4 & 5.
Not really feeling new guy Luke either.
From teaching its players the actual core mechanics of fighting games to implementing a far superior lobby system, Them's Fightin' Herds has done more to move the genre forward than the heavy hitters of the fighting game scene.

It's some candy from Japan, you can see the pocky candy in a lot of animes and mangas.
They make these thin cookie sticks that are dipped in chocolate, very popular with anime fans for some reason. I've only recently discovered this as well.
pocky is really good stuff. Can often be found in a decent size grocery store's asian section, or an asian market. I highly recommend trying it.
Does this mean they will have SF flavored pocky...? Like Chun Li and R Mika flavored?
I used to collect various obscure Pocky flavors and hoard the boxes. I find this collaboration better suited for Pockymon than a fighting game.
I like the banana chocolate one's the best. They had an orange cream-sickle thing I liked a lot, but they stopped selling it everywhere I knew to get it locally. Asked at an anime convention if it was still available, and they said that it wasn't available from their stateside distributor anymore.
Very glad to see that Capcom has gone back to the drawing board and delivered a far better product than the original version of Street Fighter V. They definitely should have held the game off and launched with this version from day one.
Nice
