Its not the best figher ever but its great.
I got it saturday afternoon and have played it quite a bit since. SF3:3rd strike is still a more balanced fighter even if it isn't user freindly. I've noticed some cheap stuff in SF4 that should be fixed. (Overpowering Boss characters, Zangiefs throw range...)
The thing about capcom is that they usually make updates to their fighters.
SF2 and Super street fighter 2 turbo are drastically different games.
SF3 and SF3:Third strike are also very different.
So we may get patches here that will make it in to best fighting game ever.
As far as reviews go, I think this is just the gaming review community trying to bring the street fighter to the main stage after so many years of neglect. This is not a "ZOMG 10/10" fighter at all. Also, its very barebones compared to some other fighters in recent memory when it comes to features. 2 on 2 tag mode would have been nice...
