One thing I miss from SF4 that the others never did. The "OH SHIT" face the characters make when you do an ultra.

[@manafbenayache1880]

specially when they realize they are about to get punished you gotta see some ex like Ken after his showryuken and he s about to land and you do your ultra he s looking at you as you are behind him and the look on his face is funny !! i just love when i counter an Ultra with an other Ultra ! etc... thank you

I can’t lie. SF4 aged the best. Going back to SF4 tournament matches are more hype than any other SF game. There is a lot of cope in the replies, but not a single person writing essays about “nostalgia” is naming an SF title that they believe aged the best as far as going back and watching tournament sets. Dialogue can be a two-way street.

4 and 3S securely goat tier. The perfection of 4 was robbed of an optimal arcade scene/age. As much as i love the game, it's missing local, open arcade memories like that of 3S and MvC2. Players today will never know the subtle intricacies of lining up your tokens and counting who got next.

Of course it is. It has the heart of 2, and feels like a modern (for the time) remake. The slightly manga/anime-cartoonish art-style, the warm colours, the beefy announcer. the arcade-like music, and all the Street Fighter and Capcom fighters legacy being revived through it constitute a great Capcom fighting game - and my personal favourite. On the technical side, it has amazing depth, and is open to creativity; while the demanding execution is the ideal seal: if you can do it you can go that much further, if you can't you can still play very effectively in a simpler manner. And all the different playstyles, from neutral and footsies, to all-out aggression, or a solid defensive style; everything can work. Characters played uniquely, and players each had their own style. To me, a remake of IV, with ArcSys-style graphics, refined balance, and some tweaks here and there is a dream game; they could just keep adding characters for decades.

My #1 favorite SF of all time. It’s difficult to remember which version I prefer but it’s not USFIV but I loved Vanilla since the first character I started playing was actually Sagat. I kept a physical copy so that I can play it completely without any updates ruining (or fixing) Sagat. Always been a Ryu/Ken/Akuma/Sakura player but just by chance I started playing Sagat on release day and obviously was kicking the crap out of everyone. Been playing in the arcades since SFI and if SFA/SFZ counts as an even number then I have never liked the odd number releases (1, 3 & 5). SF6 actually has a good chance to be my personal SF GOAT depending on the support and characters they add in the future. Akuma and Ed are the only two from season 1 that I play and so far I think Bison might be my only one for season 2.
