This is from Gamespot http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/str...19&page=2&q=&q=

Half way down the page is a breakdown on the achievements. Doesn't sound like the online ones will be too tough, but getting through the arcade without losing a round will take some button mashing practice with the old hundred hand slap (with the hardest punch of course). Either way I'm buying this game.

This is the game that is bringing some friends that died to video games back to life. A chance to challenge the world in Street Fighter 2. I mean, when you're kids and spending your days playing street fighter 2, having finger blistering fireball duels, Hop Chop Charuken spinning kick action...it's just great memories all around.

I was born and raised a Ryu only man. I will only switch over to Ken and Sagat from time to time since they're basically the same fighting style. Wow, takes me back.

Guiles Juggling > All

been practicing on my psp

been practicing on my emulator....oh I said to much

i think this is one of the most anticipated games for the 360. im ready to go.

Hell yes _ this one will be a must its going to be so freaking cool playing this game on live ..im pumped .....now for ms to unleash killer Instinct then my old school fighter itch well be scratched daily on live.......drools*

when is the release date for this?

Still isnt out yet, still supposed to be released soon...

Too bad this isnt super street fighter 2 turbo.

man they have been tempting us with this game

COUGH COUGH me 2 COUGH COUGH

I hate it that there are no release dates for LIVE.

this is so going to kick ass.

time to wire up my wired 360 pad to work my custom stick.

yup this is the make it or break it game for me with the 360. ie lost all faith in this console to produce anything other than rehashed xbox 1 and pc games. and their utterly retarded move to take the summer titles and move them to november just discusted me beyond belief. and i swore on the spot if SF II didnt do it for me that i would sell this lame ass console and never think twice about it.

they TRULY TRULY need to make SFII and Super SF II and something like SF Alpha (yes the original) on Live Arcade...

SF II is an undeniable classic and to bring it to the world of online gaming is a heaven sent blessing to guys like us since no one can seem to make any fighting games for the 360 and there isnt anything in the release list either for the future..


anyways... Ken's my boy and i'll be seeing you all on Live.


btw when the hell is this supposed to be released ?

what would be better is like a mega disk. all of them on a dvd with hi def and online play. that would be so cool. have it recoded so it runs fast. kinda like what they did with mega man.

This game is gonna make people shit their pants. I;m telling you, this is gonna be bigger than Halo hahaha .

There hasn't been a new xbla game in forever. Uno does not count.

They need to get on this.

I WANT IT NOW DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why does Uno not count? It cost money just like Street Fighter will. It's fun, playable (unlike how I imagine SF2 will be on the D-pad) and available on XBLA. I do wish SF2 was released though. It astounds me that it is taking SOOO long when they are simply porting SF2AC over...

its not the porting thats the issue, as it will simply run on an emulator, its the online thats taking so long i imagine.
as fast of gameplay as SF II uses you have to think of how they can make it all work out with the latency ,.

i for one have yet to play any of the online incarnations of the SF games. so i dont know how well it works.

If the camera was available I could see trying it out, but card games as video games just don't cut it for me. As for the dpad I like the 360's a lot. Much better than original X and 10 times better than any Sony pad.

i'm not going to play my 360 again until SF2 & Spring update come out.

It better be 100% lag free.
There's just no point in playing a SF game over XBL if there's lag.
I loved Street Fighter Anniversary Collection, but the lag killed it for me.
It was like being kicked in the balls by a beautiful chick

I bet lag is the reason why this game is taking for ever to come out....

...no game is lag free. Oh yes, there will be lag.

every game has lag.

^^^^
I know that but it doesn't hurt to aim high

I imagine it will be the same issues DOA4 experiences with lag.

The 9 frame jab of char. "X" being beaten by the 12 frame jab of char. "Y" due to X lagging by 3 or more frames compared to Y.

Or to put it another way, X is lagging by 6 frames. So from hitting the jab attack to execute the move for damge is extended from 9 frames to 15 frames.

Y is only lagging by 2 frames, so the 12 frame jab becomes a 14 frame jab.

So char X did perform a move that in offline play would guarantee an strike, but is now the one being striked even though the strategically made the better play!


Woops, this isn't a DOA thread. The lag impacts things like this. Let's pretend we have a match between Chun Li and Zangief.
Match starts and Chun Li throws out a quick high punch. Zangief throws out a medium high punch. In offline play, Chun Li would land the punch and the damage.

Due to lag, let's pretend that Chun Li is lagging more than Zangief, so therefore his medium high punch is causing damage that would never happen in an arcade battle. It screws up the balance so much that it is very frustrating to play competitively.

what takes so looooong to put games on arcade??

Despite soon being on my 3rd 360, if SFII works great and a TMNT Arcade game is created, I'll be a happy camper for this gen of consoles.

there are ways to compensate for such lag. but we will all have to see how well it plays out.


I WANT IT NOW DAMN IT!!!


did i say that already ?

I hope all of you have been practicing...as I will rain down fire and destroy you all

I didn't realize SF2AC had lag issues. I guess netcode is really the hardest thing to get right. I agree that lag would really hurt a game as fast as SF2. Lag in DOA4 is half of what keeps me offline. Although, I must admit it's a painful bliss. I just can't stay away from the joy of beating a human being (which is few and far between ).

i agree!!!!
give us SF2 stop bullshitting around!!

(i just saw on gamestats.com the rls date is listed as 12/30/06 - I HOPE THIS IS NOT TRUE)
