Episode 010 – Super Street Fighter IV

Bit For Byte

Bit For Byte finally tackles Capcom’s Super Street Fighter IV! Instead of focusing on match ups, we discuss the fighting game renaissance that had been ignited a year ago by the original Street Fighter IV. It’s been 10 years since Street Fighter III Third Strike, and now more than ever it seems is a fantastic time to be a fighting game fan. The presence of stronger internet has created a stronger community and made it easier than ever for people to find competition. We take a look at the build up to the game through the development blog, the impact of streamed tournaments, our trip to Guard Crush in Brooklyn, and everyone’s favorite: Ken’s Fierce Shoryuken.

In news, Sebastian races to find a Mac to play Team Fortress 2 on, Vanquish shows off some game play, Harmonix tries to reel us back in with a Rock Band 3, and Sony learns the wrong lesson.
