I don't think I'm buying. I'm just not a fan of technical fighters. I don't like to have to study a movelist to play a game.

Street Fighter II has been out for 17 years. How have you not memorized some moves by now? The next thing you're going to tell me is you don't know the Konami code either. Come on Naz! Knowing basic moves in SF is like knowing Mario shoots fireballs after he touches a white flower. It's inside your gaming DNA!

 

 

I gotta admit the moves in SF are the basis of a lot of fighting games nowadays.

 

I hate to pile on you Naz but Onyx makes a great point. Besides Street Fighter isn't Virtua Fighter. Each character doesn't have well over a hundred moves. Every hands on preview of the so far has remarked on how people that haven't played a fighting game since SF2, hopped onto the game an picked it up no problem because the basics remain the same.

The version of the game to own, is the version that the majority of your friends is getting. Playing Street Fighter has always been more fun with friends than with strangers.
