Knowing a good thing when they see it, Capcom has gone to great lengths to ensure that everything that made the legendary Street Fighter II a hit in the arcades, living rooms and dormitories across the globe all those years ago has been brought back in Street Fighter IV, and this naturally starts with the characters. Fans of the franchise, as well as the fighting genre in general, will be happy to know that whether you prefer to stick with the superior abilities of top tier characters or explore the ins and outs of mid to lower level combatants, when it comes time to pick your fighter there is a wide array of choices. Also, not only will players be able to play as and against their favorite classic characters, such as Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Guile, Zangief, Blanka, Sagat, etc., they will also be able to take on new characters. Just a few of these include:
 | Abel This young French amnesiac comes from a mixed martial arts and mercenary background and is dedicated to chasing down the remnants of Shadaloo. |
 | Crimson Viper This tough and beautiful agent assumes a businesslike demeanor, ignoring all emotion and obligation to her fellow man. She wears a high-tech suit filled with deadly gadgetry.. |
 | El Fuerte This fighter divides his time between perfecting his Lucha Libre skills and his cooking abilities, yet surprisingly his indomitable spirit is a match for even the legendary Red Cyclone. |
 | Rufus This portly fighter has declared himself America's greatest fighter and uses his own brand of Kung Fu in his decidedly one-sided rivalry with Ken for top dog in the States. |
New Combat Features: Focus Attacks and Ultra Combos
Although Street Fighter IV is designed to draw heavily from past game features in its franchise history, it does offer some stunning new gameplay options. The first of these are Focus Attacks. These moves allow players to absorb the energy from an attack and quickly counter with their own. Used properly, Focus Attacks allow for tremendous flexibility during combat and are the end result of efforts by the game's development team to evolve combat away from the rigid memorization of set combination patterns, giving players the freedom to be creative against opponents. The other new combat feature are new powered up moves called Ultra Combos. Like standard combos their purpose is to unleash maximum damage on an opponent, but unlike the combos of old, when performed correctly these long strings of punches, kicks and moves result in changes to the in-game camera angle and quick cinematics which illustrate the strength of your skills like never before. Taken together, these two new features herald Street Fighter IV as the new king of the fighter genre and a force to be reckoned with for years to come.

Capcom delivers the best CE for one of the best fighting games
I know this CE is sold out but I figure reviews are still helpful for those considering paying the $100+ asking prices for secondhand copies. I'll cover the features unique to the CE.
What makes this CE so special is the Blu-ray anime which is 65 minutes long. First of all, don't expect anything other than videogame story shlock. The movie's story ties in with the storyline of the videogame I thought it did a good job of expanding on what they were talking about in the videogame. There's only two fight scenes with the first fight scene not showing up until half an hour into the movie. The fights are Viper vs. Ryu & Cammy, and the final showdown at the cruise ship with Sakura, Chun-Li, Ken, and Ryu; it's mostly a Ryu showdown with him taking on the top baddie. Avoid the English track it has the worst lip synch and voice acting I've heard in anime since the 90s(this is true for the videogame too).
Animation is about what you'd see on a TV anime series. PQ is average there is color banding. Disc has a DTS-HD Master Audio track.
The figurine is neat, doesn't look crappy like the Assassin's Creed figurine. The figurine and anime are the best parts of this CE. The hint book is garbage, it just shows move lists for the new characters with illustrations done by Udon. And of course the staple of videogame CEs an OST with music from the game's levels. There's also a voucher for downloadable costumes.
All in all this is the best CE of a videogame I've ever purchased. You don't just get a figurine or lame bonus soundtrack or a bite sized art book you get an anime movie produced for the CE. If you're considering paying the high secondhand prices for this CE do it only for the Blu-ray the rest is just standard CE fluff. To tell you the truth as neat as this CE is I don't think it's worth more than its MSRP.
Great fighting game, nothing else
I don't think there's anything I can say that hasn't been said about the quality of the fighting in this game. Top notch. No doubt about it. What I like the best is the online play. It's so smooth and seamless, it really takes you back to the good old arcade days.
I'm not as wowed at the graphics as other people are. When you see the characters up close you can see some blurry textures. And the backgrounds are really nothing special. And if I'm going to nit pick, the backgrounds are a big disappointment. Nobody is assigned a stage. They're all random and none of them are memorable like the ones in Street Fighter 2.
The anime cut scenes before and after you beat the game are just horrible. Storyline? Is there one? This is supposed to take place between Street Fighter 2 and Street Fighter 3 and yet it does NOTHING to do fill in the gaps between the two. All it does is raise MORE questions by bringing dead characters back and adding new ones. Where'd all these characters go in SF3?
As far as the "Collectors Edition" goes, it's not really worth the extra money. You get an anime movie which is of the same quality as the cut scenes in the game. It's horrible. I love anime and have seen a lot of it. But this is one of the worst animes I have ever seen in my life. It's worse than the new live action Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li movie.
And then you get a comic book strategy guide that you'll look at once and never again. And a tiny Ryu figure which is kinda cool to look at. And the soundtrack.
I spent the extra money to get the movie, but the movie is horrible. So if that's your reasoning to buy this collectors edition, save your money and just buy the game.
Game is great but the collector's edition is lacking
First off I love the actual game. I've grown up with the fighting genre, played fighting games since I was a young kid and could barely reach the joysticks and buttons. The Streetfighter franchise has come a long, long way but sadly it is my opinion that the collector's edition (it's contents) is a let-down to Street Fighter fans, and hardly justifies the extra price.
The items that came with the collector's edition include a Ryu figurine, a cd soundtrack, blu-ray movie disc "The Ties That Bind" collector's hint book, network vouchers for free alternate costumes (you'll pay a small fee if you don't have the voucher) and of course the actual game.
At first glanced this seemed like a great deal, until you actually have the product in your hands. Upon opening the box you'll notice that the touted figurine of Ryu and I'am assuming the same for C. Viper for the X Box editions are incredibly small. My Ryu figurine has a certain degree of detail to it; Ryu poses in a classic form as he is preparing to form a hadoken fireball. The thing is it only stands at about 3 inches tall. I wasn't expecting something huge, but when you compare the size of the figurine to the size of the box, you could easily stand 3 Ryu figurines on top of one another with room to spare. That's how small the figurine is.
Trying to be optimistic of the C.E., I popped in the blu ray movie and all I can say is, the animation showcases some of the classic characters: Guile, Chun Li, Cammy, Ken, Sakura and of course Ryu with appearances of Balrog, Vega and the new game boss Seth. Without going into too much details C. Viper is shown as an antagonist in the short film. Well the film wasn't anything spectacular. Storyline was much too predictible. I wouldn't say you'd be missing much by opting not to get the collector's edition.
My overall opinion is 5 stars for the game. But if I could rate just the contents that came with the collector's edition, I would have to give it a 2.5 stars at best. I didn't feel it worth while to have paid more for these extras; perhaps you'll feel differently. Just my 2 cents.
