Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix (360, PS3)

Street Fighter 2. Excited? If the answer is ‘no’ then this is not for you. HD Remix, for those unfamiliar, is little more than a facelift to one of the franchises greatest iterations. A familiarity and love of the game are assumed and if you are lacking these then wait for Street Fighter 4 which is prettier and more accessible.

Those more familiar with the series may appreciate the less cosmetic changes made better then I as my experience with Super SF2. The majority of balances made here are for tournament players. They are almost imperceptible to those who lack a disturbingly intimate knowledge of the game. Suffice to say that it is well balanced, verses loses feel fair, and leave you with a desire to tune your skills.

Really this is for hardcore players and series fans who want some challenging online play to tide them over until SF4.
