    Capcom trying to be the king of paywall fighting games this generation.
    The awkward updates, where your game has to be on the main menu of sf5 is trash.
    The artwork feels the cast does steroids.
    Another big let down from capcom.

    Street Fighter V is a bad fighting game, there aren't many fighters to choose from and its really boring in comparison to a game like Mortal Kombat X. This was my first Street Fighter game and its really left me wondering what all the fuss is about. I really don't like this game.

    The game is so poor. First of all, no content at all, the online is unplayable and even if we're gonna pretend that's not a problem, the game itself offers a very poor gameplay compared to Super SF 4 , it's like you don't have many options when it comes to combos. Also I hate capcom's dick move with them removing the focus cancel feature, at least we had a cool feature adding more depthThe game is so poor.

Also I hate capcom's dick move with them removing the focus cancel feature, at least we had a cool feature adding more depth and skill to the fights. Or maybe it's just me who's the problem here, perhaps SF isn't my type of fighting game anymore. I hope capcom fix this in their SF6, because I don't see hope on this one, it's too late, they messed up the core. Expand

    Even for free on PSPlus this game is not worth it. The insanely long loading times (not just each time you start, but even on the character selection screen) are ridiculous and inexcusable.

    Feels very much like a free to play game with all the DLC as well.

    They took a beloved franchise and threw it away. They combat is the slowest its ever been. The execution is garbage. I could flail the sick around and get a dragon punch. The combos are only like 5 hits at best and the DLC characters are just old characters that should have been in the game from the start. It's disappointing at best.

    Got this with the PS+ free game of the month and I'm glad I didn't pay for it. Was excited to play as my main man Guile, until I saw he's behind a pay wall. Only about 10% of the game is available the other 90% is behind a pay wall, and yes that includes the backgrounds. Sure you could grind and earn FM to unlock everything, but each character is 100,000 worth of FM each and theGot this with the PS+ free game of the month and I'm glad I didn't pay for it.

The only way to earn FM is playing online matches offline story or arcade doesn't earn you FM. I played two matches and earned 70 FM. So you spend all day grinding you might be able to earn enough FM to unlock one character this time next year. The sound, music and controls are all solid but that online grind or pay $25 to unlock everything is what holds this game back. Capcom y'all done screwed it up. Expand

    La más grande estafa de los últimos 20 años. No lo compren si no piensan gastarse más de 200 dólares por todo el contenido.

    Increible que capcom venda un juego incompleto a precio como si estuviera completo. Una movida muy sucia.

    O jogo é uma bosta, desbalanceado e cheio de microtransaçoes além de um multiplayer porco

    Demo version of the game for full price! Very greedy company. And where are my previous reviews of this game? This is a question for the site owners.

    Once you get permanently banned online for disconnecting, you can`t get the trophies for the Platinum,
    Garbage....
    I tried to unban, but customer service said they cant do anything.
    Stay away from Street Fighter games, trying to Platinum this garbage is not worth it or any other Street Fighter game.

  1. There’s a great game in Street Fighter V, but only if you’re willing to learn the hard way. Capcom will need more than the few thousand competitors following the Capcom Pro Tour to make this game, and the series as a whole, sustainable for the future.

    Everything that I didn’t like about SFIV is gone, leaving a deep yet easy to grasp, spectacular game. [04/2016, p.34]

    Despite simplistic single-player and feeble tutorials, SFV is a completely essential fighting game. [Apr 2016, p.70]
