We had the illusion that perhaps last year's edition that "comprehensive" for Street Fighter IV, but it's clear that Capcom is back to the '90s with its publication strategy. And then here we are again talking about the best fighting games recently released by Nissan, remaining within the more or less technical. This time we find the arcade edition updates, here analyzed in output for the shops that includes all the features of Super Street Fighter IV and a lower price than the average (but higher than the rest of Europe).

The four new additions to the cast bring the roster of selectable wrestlers in his late thirties, a number of fighters exorbitant given the amount and variety of moves available for each character. Unfortunately, none of the new entry has its own challenges, so the learning of technical skills and should only be playing and accumulating a fair amount of losses if they often go online (where the competition is very competitive). Looking closely at the new fighters, and emerge on the visual side One Evil Ryun versions "demonic" Arkoma and the granddaddy of all Shamokin. Both moves have obviously enhanced arising from the catalog of original characters, on screen and trigger a multitude of special effects. Fireballs, trails of energy, explosions when using these fighters it is always spectacular. Moreover, especially in the case of demons, their power is balanced in other areas such as reduced mobility and a "footprint" large screen. Different matter, however, choosing Yang and (especially) people who almost seem Yen-tutorial for how powerful and packed with all the special moves are possible: short-range, defensive, and so on. Coming directly from Street Fighter III: Third Strike, both is great fun to use for their speed and agility, but above all for versatility in terms of "super" that makes them perfect in almost all occasions. Overall, Capcom has done a good job on the style and the new recruits fit perfectly on the roster, as the news is limited: Yun and Yang are variations of the same fighter as Akuma One and are enhanced versions of two old favorites.

It should be noted, however, that this edition of "physical" includes all content of Super Street Fighter IV, a title which is still among the best fighting games of all time in meetings, not only on HD consoles. So with a nominal cost (about forty Euros) will take home a great game with some brand new extras: an offer definitely a must for those who have never purchased the previous versions or has already sold. Especially since the latest additions to the roster in the menus and integrate seamlessly into the narrative context, however trifling, with their vocal samples and their accompanying Mini Store. The Arcade Edition is a complete game in the short clearer sense of the term in output for the shelves, while those who had bought the predecessor (but want the extra characters) can always turn to PSN for less than half.

Addition to adding four wrestlers described above, the remodeling balance Arcade version of the standard characters and adds new functions related to online gambling. On the side of the wrestlers, you do not need experts to be too old to find that some techniques used in the two previous versions, no longer work and that the power of many shots has been retouched. This is for two reasons: to make the Arcade Edition as "fresh" and new for the fans, and fix some problems with the balance still in the cast. However, with so many wrestlers selected is impossible that all combinations of opponents are fair and balanced, and in fact it does not take long to realize that new products deserve some tweaking (Yun and Yang, as mentioned, are too powerful and easy to use). However, this is virtually invisible to most issues and does not affect a combat system is still much appreciated, along with immediate and very deep on the distance. The same qualities that emerge following the new channel "elite" in the replay of the game on the net, where they hosted the records of matches played by the real samples. Only the best looking and trying to imitate them, we can say we really learned something in the School of Sacred Shrunken. Returning to the contents of this release, the absence of negative surprises in uniform outside for new fighters, still being sold separately. Already three versions in three years for the same game are not liked at all, if we will continue to bombard the audience of DLC ... Hope (despite the title) is that an issue does not come to "Turbo" because this is the perfect ending in the history of Street Fighter IV. Now, it's time to think about the number five.
