SF2 HD Remix Bitching


Capcom, I appreciate the new HD sprites and all that, but could you have at least improved the frame rate of both the sprites AND the background animation? The sprites look smooth, but the animation on the sprites feels like it's missing a lot of frames. That and the crowds in the background animate like a two-page flip book.

Also, could you have at the very least cleaned up the hit detection? You could freeze-frame some of the gameplay trailers and see Ryu kicking thin air and Ken being close to the fucking ground and getting "hit" by a flying kick.

Old-school rocks and all that, but you could've cleaned up.

Tip: Look at King of Fighters XII

Wow, this is really too bad. I assume the video you posted is from the release version of the game, right?

I don't understand why they didn't make more of an effort, especially when you consider all the fan allegiance this game enjoys. Contrast that with the buckets full of love Nintendo obviously poured into Smash Bros. Brawl.

Capcom is always a mystery to me. Sometimes they hit it out of the park, and other times it's like they're phoning it in. Hard to figure.
