    Always enjoyed playing number two when I was growing up. Never tried the later entries after that because I switched over to the Tekken series instead. But this game is a solid fighting game overall. It will take some time to learn all the controls and what style of character fits you. I played a few iconic characters for the arcade mode. There are a lot of characters to play and experience each of their short stories. I also tried online and got my ass kicked. Definitely pick this up when it…

    Ultra Street Fighter IV is easily my favorite Street Fighter game. It strikes the perfect balance between accessibility and depth, making it fun to play while still offering a high skill ceiling. The gameplay is incredibly tight and rewarding. Every move feels precise, and learning combos, spacing, and timing makes a huge difference. It’s the kind of fighting game where you can constantly improve the more you play. The roster is also a big highlight. With a wide variety of characters, each…

    This game is all about Get Good or Get Emotionally Deleted! So you boot up Ultra Street Fighter IV thinking, “Yeah bro, I’ve played fighting games before. How hard can it be?” HAHAHAHA. Sit down. Drink water. Call your family. You’re not the same person after this. This game doesn’t have a learning curve. It has a learning cliff, and at the bottom is a guy named Ryu repeatedly punching your self-esteem in the throat. “A few hundred hours to be a beginner” isn’t a warning. It’s a threat. You…

    The all-time goat of fighting games. This game came out when it seemed like fighting games were pretty much completely over and doomed to be a sideline genre nobody gives a %#@$ about. And it saved everything. This is hands down the most difficult, competitive, and fair fighting game to learn and see success in of all time. (Which is insane because there's about 40 playable characters) While I've had hundreds of hours of fun just trying to do moves I think look cool in tough situations…

    The final "chapter" of Street Fighter is truly extremely good! With its 44 characters, the largest roster of the entire Street Fighter franchise to date! Lots of fun. Pleasant pace. If you've played SF4, SSF4, and SSF4 AE but haven't played ULTRA yet, I recommend giving it a try! Someday I'll review SF5 and SF6, explaining why I consider 4 the "last good chapter." As soon as I have a copy of SF5 and SF6!

    Probably the only game where I've spend an enormous numbers of hours, without looking back fondly on the experience. The game is fun if you just casually want to play the campaign, practice a few combos and maybe mess around a bit in multiplayer. The game is probably also fun I've you've learned the exact properties of the hundreds of different moves in the game, so you can go into the deep tactical mind-games that make pro-level games so interesting to watch. But the area in between…

    I wish I liked this more. It has a lot going for it. Great graphics for the time and a very impressive character roster. It's just lacking the charm the earlier games had. The cheapness in the voice acting and certain cutscenes really hurts this one. It's also really poorly balanced.

I enjoyed the combat and thought the character variety was good, although I found the combos quite difficult to pull off. As someone who isn't a dedicated fighting game player, this made some parts of the game more challenging than I would have liked. The story was fine,…

    Continues to be one of the most respectable releases of a Street Fighter game on Steam. + Well optimized. Can run on a potato + Large roster with a diverse variety of movesets that holds up pretty well + Decent input leniency + Tons of DLC costumes + Animated arcade mode cutscenes + Badass arcade mode bosses ~ DLC costumes tend to never be discounted, but I can't complain too much since it's at least cheaper than later games' DLC costumes. I just limit myself to a few costumes packs per month…

    Page says game is unsupported on Steam Deck but in my limited playtime just now, it played flawlessly on it. Ran Arcade mode on the hardest difficulty all the way to Seth and actually finished it no problem in terms of performance. The ONLY issue I ran into was the FMV after choosing a character on Arcade mode but had no issues viewing the ending cinematics.

    USFIV My Favourite Fighting Game of All-Time In Terms of Gameplay - Movesets Character Roster Art - Design Content - Replayability Pacing - Worth I have probably 300+ hrs paired with how much I played this game as a kid on multiple accounts on Ps4 The game has a generic SNK Boss Syndrome Arcade mode. But I love it as that was how I learnt to defend. The Arcade isn't too long or short, every character has a short intro and conclusion and a special Rival battle (sometimes 2!)…

    It's probably a good game for a select few. If you're brand new or like me and have played some much more casual fighting games like MK or Soul Calibur, I really wouldn't recommend it. From what i've played and looked into, this game would require a lot of time to become even a little decent at. You'll be spending hours in the training repeating the same motions over and over again. And despite trying, keyboard, playstation and xbox controllers, it just feels like the controls are too…

    Game has aged like fine wine. Still has more execution and creativity then the last 2 entries in the franchise, and peak character roster. The only thing really holding it back in this modern era is the lack of rollback netcode but if you're playing against someone that isn't half-way across the country on a decent connection, it's more then playable. Heres hoping we see a proper CAPCOM-approved rollback update make it's way into the game at some point in the future. --- PROS; - Robust…

    At this point you can grab the game, or the upgrade, kinda funny with the 4 dollars for SF 4 USD theme on sale going on, but more so, there's a MOD out now that gives it the rollback code that makes 2 frames delay feel like near nil. If you ever liked the game at all, and wanted some of that best console version 360 feels on PC, this plus that MOD is hands down an experience. Take a step back into the age where gimmies weren't much given, and squeeze outs against someone who really knew were…

    This game doesn't have skill based matchmaking at all. There's a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ "ranked' mode where you just get washed by whichever top 100 global player happens to find you and then get thrown back to the menu with no chance to rematch and you never see that person or their character ever again. If you didn't play this game when it was new you will literally never learn it because the gap between a beginner and the people who have played it every day since 2009 is so extreme. Maybe the gameplay…

    The connect boxes are absolutely arbitrary, the controller recognition is sloppy, there's plenty of deathlock maneauvers, and the graphics are awful. If not for the fact I got it for $2.49 on Huble Bundle I'd be pissed. And even then I'd rather spend that $2.49 on a hot dog instead. Awful game.
