Gamespot prooves again and again that they've never really "played" street fighter. first the sf4 national tournament were you couldnt use a stick and had to use xbox pads.... then the seth killian Hakan video where the gamestop guy didnt know how to guard low,... now this video where they didnt even MENTION Third Strike,.... the greatest street fighter game eva,..... who the F*** skips to HD remix!?!?!?
@ Safman #5 you're absolutely right!
For hardcore street fighters, I suggest you watch the in depth video history of street fighter by "the nostalgic gamer" in youtube. This video by gamespot is only meant to give a very brief history of Street fighter.
Not really a look back as much as people talking about their times playing it.... and then there's information like SF1 staff leaving to create SNK
basic rush through the cliffnotes of the series including
-No real mention of Akuma
-No mention of character returning from 1 into alpha
-NEW GENERATION not NEW GENERATION OF STREET FIGHTERS
-Brief as a one frame link mention of ALL THE VS games in one sentence
-HDR "best around" montage trailer was around about the time of HDR's release and Gamespot didn't make it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Jt4bd... (look at post date)
-Street fighter 4 was already in arcades before HDR releases
All in all this is STUPID, Lazy and just bad
it didnt mention SF3 3rd S but in mentions the awful EX series...well i guess they got a time limit to make a history run down of SF that covers all. still it was decent. SF's the best & i believe the majority of the ppl who post comments here can agree. wonder what the future has in store? lol hope i live long enough to find out. peace :)
I remember the very first time I played World Warrior in the arcades. I picked Chun Li and some little kid picked Blanka. His older brother told him to just mash on the punch buttons, and I couldn't get past the electricity and lost lol. Good times, good times.
R.I.P. arcade scene. =(
Street Fighter is like a fat lactating cow
