New Street Fighter 2 in HD?

Postby VideoGameCritic » July 4th, 2007, 5:29 pm

I heard a rumor that Capcom with be re-releasing Street Fighter 2 this fall with HD quality graphics and smoother animation.  I'm intrigued.  Anybody else heard about this?

Yeah, I think it's going to be a 360 download.

You should check out the gallery on this page:

Some of them are actually sneak peeks at the HD version of Street Fighter.  For instance, this is one for the refined Akuma sprite:

I heard about it, too. But jeez.. how many times are they going to keep re-hashing Street Fighter 2!? I mean, c'mon.. the game is over fifteen years old now. Time to get on with it, man!

Here's a thought. Street Fighter 4?

I think this is different than just a rehash.  More like an up-to-date remake of a classic, using today's technology.  If they were just re-releasing the same game with a few new characters and a built-in turbo mode like they always used to do, then I would agree with you.

I personally think that they should do a remake of Street Fighter 1... there's a reason that everyone remembers the sequel!
