Street Fighter IV in London next month News

PC Xbox 360 PlayStation 3
News by Robert Purchese

11 June, 2008

Capcom is offering the British public its first chance to play Street Fighter IV next month.

Arcade cabinets will be wobbling their way to the Battle of Destiny, the Road to Evolution event at the London Metropolitan University on Saturday, 27th July.

Also present for the first time will be Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, which is slated for release on PC, PSN and XBLA later this summer.

The Battle of Destiny tournament has fighting fans slug it out across four games to win a place in the world final in Las Vegas in August.

If you're just going along to watch and maybe play SFIV or the other one with a really long title then you will need to cough up GBP 10.

However, those who fancy their chances at either Super Street Fighter II - Hyper Anniversary Edition, Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection, Capcom Vs. SNK 2 or Street Fighter 3: Third Strike will need to shell out per game.

For one tournament it will be GBP 10; for two it will be GBP 20; for three it is GBP 25 and for four it is GBP 35.

Head over to the official Battle of Destiny, the Road to Evolution site to get involved.

Alternatively you can sit on your hands and read our hands-on impressions of Street Fighter IV from the recent Captivate 08 event.

Not hat bothered to play 4, I can wait.

also if you want to play SSF2HD remix why not pay just 6.80 for commando 3 and get the beta. A little cheaper and more play time...

Or don't buy Commando and wait for the uber awesome finished product. But on PSN, for better controls.

Or forget the Blu-Ray player, mod your 360 pad / get a hori stick , and keep your games console.

No standard console pad is well suited to SF because of the 6 attack buttons, you end up having to use the shoulder buttons, which isn't ideal. I bought one of those Hori arcade sticks for VF5, so that should work well.

Incidentally, I don't really like the 6 button layout of SF, 4 attack buttons should be enough.
