As I?ve stated before in other fighting game reviews, costumes do not change the gameplay at all, and are only appealing to a handful of fighting game fans. To spice things up a bit for the retail disc version, Capcom has included over 100 costumes from all previously released DLC including a few new ones exclusive to the retail version. Like its previous incarnations, this game is a top notch fighter, and this ultra upgrade makes it even better. Everything from the awesome graphics, tight controls and special moves from previous versions are all here. While I am not digging the lazy inclusion of SFXTK backgrounds and the cut and paste job of the new characters, Ultra is not bad at all. So, instead of calling this a new game, Im calling it the Street Fighter IV that should of been 5 years ago. Actually the only true completely new change that players have never seen before is the character of Decapre, which is basically an overpowered Cammy with very intense moves.

Also, instead of creating completely new stages, Capcom decided that you didn?t appreciate the stages in Street Fighter X Tekken enough, so all of the new arenas are ripped from that game with no changes made. This is simply Street Fighter IV with added characters, some fan favorites like Rolento and Elena, and others that aren?t so welcome like Poison, Hugo and someone (or something) called Decapre. No changes have been made to the core gameplay, graphics, or controls. If you own Street Fighter IV, Super Street Fighter IV, or Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition, you know what to expect here. Ultra Street Fighter IV is not a new game let?s get that out of the way first.

It seems Capcom loves to rehash and remake older games several times before releasing a sequel or a new title, and while Ultra Street Fighter IV is definitely not a new title, it?s not a bad update either.


Even part 3 received many revisions before they were finished. There was, Champion Edition, Turbo Champion Edition, Rainbow Edition and on through Super and Super Turbo. I remember visiting my local arcade in my youth and seeing a new version of Street Fighter II almost every single week.
