No. Street Fighter 4 brough a resurgence of the fighting genre, that is no doubt their biggest achievement of the latest years.


This man already spread my word.

I still play Street Fighter 4 til this day.


Street Fighter is and always will be Capcoms bread and butter. DMC looks like its on its way to being up the in the ranks though.

I will openly admit that Street Fighter 4 is brilliant, especially considering the series root and current trends of casual gaming meets hardcore titles meetscinematic presentation. 

However one thing that I really hate about it is the animations for the super moves. It totally kills the flow to a fight which can be super intense...however here comes a 30 second cinematic of facial closeups and colorful effects, for the sake of...I don't know what. I can go get a soda during this time...

Also it feels like a downgrade in terms of gameplay from Street Fighter 3 Third Strike, but thats my problem for being awesome. :)

The cinematics are awesome!  I remember when Street Fighter 4 was out in Japan, an arcade in Richmond Hill had it (You know 404 and Highway 7 area).  Guy using Honda vs guy using Ken.  It was crazy Ken started charging his ultra combo, and as he was about to attack, Honda charged for his ultra.  Everyone there was like "Oohhhhh.   OOOOOOOH!" needless to say Honda's ultra went through and the guy won.  Without those animations it would have been less epic.
