Last night Capcom updated Street Fighter IV again. Two new characters (E. Honda and Crimson Viper) and the option to spend some cash on new outfits for Ryu and Chun-Li. I’m very impressed with the support Capcom have given this game – so much so that I’ve actually tempted to reward them by buying the

It’s Street Fighter IV. Only more superer. I’ve mainly been using newcomer Juri, because I can with her. Not very often, but I’ve got a ranked match win rate of over twenty percent, which for this old idiot thumbs is pretty incredible. Of course, I’ve not played online since the weekend, so everybody’s now probably

Was expecting the new update to turn up last night, but it didn’t. Sometime this week would be good, though, to fit in with the release of Super Street Fighter IV on the big consoles. Anyway, rather than fight as Blanka, as normal, I decided to do some training with Chun-Li. She’s very odd, with

I’ve completely run out of things to say about this. All I do it is start it up, play a couple of fights as Blanka, then turn it off again. That’s it. But I do it a lot. I think this game is probably up there with Chinatown Wars and Orbital as the very, very

For a game that’s pretty lacking in content, I’ve played this an awful lot. I can’t seem to stop. I’m not even going for new best times or doing missions in the dojo – I’m just playing the game for the sheer joy of it.

Played with Blanka for most of the weekend. I seem to be getting pretty good. Well, good enough not to be troubled by Normal AI, anyway. I haven’t dared put it up to Hard yet. I tried Abel for a bit last night, just a couple of fights, and got smashed in the face. He

Managed to do the Dojo mission I was stuck on last night. Turned out that after building my super bar up I had to perform a super-duper roll thing. Yes, I know all the Street Fighter technical terms, me. Also completed the tournament with Blanka without using a continue. I was hoping for a different

Giving Ryu a rest, I’ve taken to using Blanka. Haven’t managed to complete Tournament mode without using a continue yet and I’m stuck on a Special Move mission in the Dojo. I’m meant to use my rolling attack to fly through the air and kill Ryu, but as soon as his health gets low he

Spent lunchtime in the Dojo, a collection of short “missions”, designed to teach how to fight well. It starts off very easy – a couple of Basic Training missions only require you to hold back to block to win – but it gets harder. I had a devil of a time with the Hurricane Kick
