An impressive, full-scale fighter that holds nothing back.

Surprisingly enough, it has already been a year since I had the opportunity to review Super Street Fighter IV when it released on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Despite having great personality and charm, the controls and poor level designs make this game nearly unplayable.

This game is the Capcom take on the Street Fighter and Tekken collaboration, and there will be another version known as Tekken X Street Fighter.

I was able to play a good amount of matches and feel out certain characters and I can assure people that are familiar with games like Super Street Fighter 4 that this is NOT the same game.
