|
| 8.0 | Presentation Generally well-polished and clean, with PS3 and 360 versions performing almost identically. Anime cutscenes, however, are a joke and should have been replaced with in-engine storytelling. |
|
| 9.0 | Graphics This is a sharp, elegant and sublimely well-animated affair. I'm still amazed at how fireballs look in this game. |
|
| 8.5 | Sound Plenty of slick tunes to complement the fighting, with a sweet J-pop song serving as the main theme. IGN predicts sweaty techno raves wherever the game is played. |
|
| 9.0 | Gameplay Street Fighter IV is a brilliant step for the franchise as it -- in most cases -- returns to the roots of the series. As with many fighting games, gameplay gets deeper with practice. |
|
| 9.5 | Lasting Appeal A veritable horde of unlockables keeps single-player sessions constantly rewarding. Playing against like-minded Street Fighter junkies will keep the game relevant for years. |
|
| 9.3 |
OVERALL (out of 10 / not an average) |
