Take a gander at these gorgeous Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix screens. These fourteen screen shots only feature SF poster boys Ken and Ryu so if you're looking to see other character art, it's not here. The thing to really look at though is the backgrounds which are just beautiful.

@RuneX: @TRT-X: I don't see how you guys didn't see that. Shit, even if you didn't play a lot of SFII there were hundreds of screenshots in every issue of every vidgame mag at that time, I'm sure there were more than a few with the hands in the fireballs.
@RuneX: I think you've been misinformed, the PS3 and 360 version will be the same. And lol @ your snide remark about frame counters, those are the guys that are responsible for SSFIITHDR even existing.

I've played Street Fighter for years....seen countless amounts of and haduken attacks (pardon spelling errors)
...And it took that first pic in the article for me to realize that there was an actual image of FISTS inside the fireball.
Wow.

@ara: yeah bro i agree when i first saw this video I actually thought it was all types of glitchy. lol
I would rather just use the older sprites if not just to get the fluid pixel animation.

It looks more like a really high-quality fractal resampling than redrawn sprites... makes you wonder.

@Madeira:
I played SF2 nearly every day for 4 years, have bought every rendition I can think of, and I still didnt notice the hands in fireball. Mainly because its not important. I never saw the logic in overanalyzing appearances in games. Never did like frame counters, the sad species that they are.
As for this game, looking great. Now to decide which console to get it on, PS3 with better sprites but poorer online(judging from the wonderful games like mk2 and RR7 which were unplayable) or the 360 with worse sprites but better online.(although if its like umk3, than its not really much better)
Maybe capcom will suprise me and make insanely good online. That would be the best option.(and I can already predict people saying "online sucks, it ruins a fighter", but those are more than likely gonna be the same frame counting idiots that I dislike. Adding features never hurts a game, never understood why poeple complain about things that only add utility to the product.
Bah, now ive made a post complaining about people who havnt even complained yet.........
Should just say , thx capcom for treating your fans and customers well!!

Please, don't stab me when I ask: "Is this for both 360 and PS3? Also, what's the new KoF coming out on?"

I could rant quite a while about the amateurish presentation, horribly deformed anatomy, etc. but I know they needed to keep the hitboxes intact. I just can't get over how bad this looks compared to the new KoF. At least they could have tried to push the shading a bit, they have static lighting, it would have been easy to make it deeper and more interesting, they already demonstrate their skills in some of the background shadings.

@Madeira: Hmm... I don't have a problem with the PS3 pad personally, but I can see where you're coming from. As for the 360 pad, I've had 7 controllers, and none of them have managed to contain a responsive d-pad. The shape and feel of the d-pad is all nice and smooth, but it just doesn't seem to response to what I'm telling it top do the way the playstation d-pad does.

@Jnas: If you mess with the frames you might as well through the whole project out the window.

@Jnas:
It would detract from gameplay, since the game is based on how many frames move-x takes to execute. Odds are the entire original balance would get thrown out of whack.

I'd recommend anyone using the white 360 controller to do that sandpaper mod.
@baked ham: I can't use the PS separated dpad, especially for SF. It's hell on my thumb for any serious playing. IMO it's a lot worse than an elite or modded 360 pad.
Madeira
Jnas
Posted 10:52 PM 19/3/08
It looks great and all, but the animation is the exact same...well at least from the video i saw a while ago. If they added frames it wouldn't detract from the SF2 gameplay, it would purley be cosmetic...and will look awesome.

My GOD that looks nice. Consider it bought. For PS3. Because fuck fuck FUCK the 360 D-pad, and I'll be damned if I'm going to change up my 15-year-strong style by re-learning the game with a thumbstick.

I didn't know the hadoken got hands inside! I always thought they were just shadows or something...
...kinda lame, isn't?
It looked nicer to me when they were just shadows :P

This game needs to come out before July in order for me to get it. If it comes out after that I'll just wait for Street Fighter IV. They've been playing around with this game for far to long now. I remember when it was supposed to be out last August.

@Madeira:
When I was a kid, I would pause the game whenever I fired off a Hadouken to see the different shapes and designs that it made. I remember the first time that I discovered that his hands were inside the fireball.
I became a man that day.

@Shin-Kaiser: I'm pretty sure those who didn't realize there were hands in the fireballs just didn't play much SFII.

@Moonchilde: I'm a hardcore SF fan, and I'm impressed by this, slightly unimpressed with the character tuning and the fact that no-one noticed the 'hands in fireball' before.
I guess HD makes everything super clear. Off topic: if anyone wants to know the difference between HD (blu-Ray) and DVD - it's right here - now you 'notice' the hands in fireball.

Looks like they're actually retracing the frames now instead of "Udoning" it up like before, which is fine since I thought there was alot of anatomy issues in the Udon sprites.
Looking good!

Does it play any different or is it the same as the SFII that no one's played since Alpha came out?

It's starting to hit home now. The one game that I obsessed over above all others... rebalanced and redone like this? This is pretty much the most awesome thing I have ever seen. It's like the best gift Capcom could ever give us old time SFII fanatics.

See it in motion first. The sprites were re-drawn but they didn't add any new frames of animation it seems.

@futurebiblehero:
PSN isn't getting a "trial" version, but the actual release is simultaneous. The PSN game is likely going to have slightly higher res artwork because of XBL size limitations.
Personally, I don't see what the fuss is about a game that I already own countless copies of on 3 platforms already. New artwork or not, this is still a 14 year old game.
