Opinions anyone?

I am happy and sad all at the same time. The game looks beautiful, with the backgrounds probably the best looking enhancement in the game. The character redraws and rebalanced modes are, as a rule, improvments but a few things are awry… Neck-less Akuma and Triple Tiger Knee juggle oopsies come to mind.

Overall, though, the game is as good as it has ever been. Not being the most fond player of the SFII-versions it seems that most of the game mechanics and tactics remain which should go a long way to pleasing the hard-core fans of the series.

HD Remix will certainly be a tournament game at DEVASTATION 2009 and, with the amount of players I see on Xbox Live, it is sure to be a hit.

Sooooo Capcom…. how’s about some Alpha lovin’?
