Street Fighter 5 flops with critics. 83% on Metacritic. Why?
With one reviewer going as low as 5/10 and so many glaring issues present in the recently release game, it sure seems like Capcom was in a hurry to rush their product onto the shelves.
Perhaps with so many more interesting fighting games coming out in the future, they knew they had to beat the wave or otherwise be buried under it.
Notably, famed fighting game series Tekken is releasing their 7th mainline title this year.
Did Capcom release an unfinished product to get out of Tekken's way as to not get trampled by the sales and hype of a much better game?
It's cause it's already leaked they are re-releasing it later this year with the rest of the characters, stages, etc. After the mess they pulled with SFIV I hope it does flop.
Is this the game series with that guy who can stretch his legs and the cheerleader who can spin upside down? I played it as a kid. Sorry to hear that it's doing poorly
Releasing unfinished **** like this is unacceptable. I saw a review that said they don't even have an Arcade mode?? that's **** that should be on there day 1. Characters I'm OK with, but vs CPU mode should be a staple in every fighting game HELLO??
But they probably got paid out by Sony so they don't give a ****. I'll wait until they release the patches before I even consider supporting disgusting Capcom, and even then there will probably be a re-release every other month. I do want to buy one of the SFV fightsticks for Guilty Gear XRD though, they look pretty nice but I've never used Madcatz stuff before and their products have mixed reviews
It's cause it's already leaked they are re-releasing it later this year with the rest of the characters, stages, etc. After the mess they pulled with SFIV I hope it does flop.
They are not re-releasing, new content is going to be DLC.
