You will be able to play the very same game as you played in 1994. Simply choose to play a “Classic” game, rather than the “Remixed” mode.

the game was finished in 1994. this was meant to be a visual touch-up. the game wasn’t broken; it should not have been “fixed.” it should not have been rebalanced. moves should not have been changed. that’s why i, in a very unusual twist, complain that they did not push the product out the door and tell sirlin to forget all that unnecessary nonsense.

If SST 2 is released after ST4, it will probably be a bonus download not a standalone game. Who would pay for it?

The problem is that since they missed the summer release window, when it finally does get released, it is going to be lost in a sea of all the games that are coming out this fall. Think about it, NBA 2K9, Midnight Club LA, Saints Row 2, Dead Space, Fable 2, Guitar Hero WT, Little Big Planet and Fallout 3 are out in October alone. November brings even more titles like Gears of War 2, Call of Duty 5, Prince of Persia etc. and that is just to name a few.

That is probably the first time I’ve ever heard anyone criticize Capcom for not rushing a product to market with negligible gameplay differences from previous versions. I mean, hasn’t this pretty much been an issue with most street fighter/ megaman/ resident evil releases for the last generation or so?

i feel like it’s already a catastrophe. they were supposed to update the graphics. that was all. now, the project has gone well beyond all projected release dates, and some folks are finding that balancing a game takes a lot of work. this should have been out ages ago. if i were a higher-up at capcom, i’d be docking someone’s pay and/or pushing just the graphically overhauled ssf2t out the door.
