About this listen

Text us and say hello!

Lou and I are taking a trip back 16 years to one of the most anticipated sequels of all time—Street Fighter IV! After years of experimentation, Capcom brought the series back to its roots, combining the best of Street Fighter II and III into what many consider the greatest Street Fighter game ever made.

We break down what made SFIV such a hit, including the return classic 2D gameplay, PLUS the introduction of new mechanics like Focus Attacks and Ultra Combos. And we talk about the roster— thankfully SFIV brought back almost ALL of the fan favorites from SFII, but not only that -- Capcom also spiced things up with characters from its own gaming past, like Abel, Rufus, Cody and Poison.

Was Street Fighter IV the ultimate revival, or did it still leave something to be desired? Kick back and enjoy the episode as we share our thoughts!
