    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.

    Censoring Cammy's entrance, R. Mika self-butt slap and the jiggle physics certainly was not a good idea! I didn't know there were puritans even at Capcom!

    It started really.......really bad, just some nice designs here and there, but nothing awesome, but the game evolved pretty well during the years, to the point at i really wanted to playing after a hard day at work, it deserves a good score.

    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.

    Bellissimo capitolo della saga.
    Ottima grafica in cell shading, giocabilità perfetta, tanti personaggi con stili di combattimento differenti.
    Splendido episodio della storica saga.

    In theory, it could be a really good fighting game. The repulsively greedy game design just won't let it be one.

    Capcom offers a great new entry into the Street Fighter franchise with SFV.

    The Standard Street Fighter V doesnt feel completed, too many contet greyed out, to unlock more content it needs ridiculous amount of play time or you buy the season pass/champion ship edition upgrade.

    Pure essence of everything that is wrong with game industry.

    Easily the worst and most boring sf game in the entire series.
    The graphics look so bad its like something out of a childs fairytale book.
    The actual gameplay itself is soo weak boring and tedious as well, not even close to as good as sf4.
    OH and lets not forget either the severe lack of stages fighters and gameplay mechanics for the first 3 years after the game launched disgusting.

    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.

    The game is very good, a lot of nice character, cool costume, and character design is still good looking and sexy. But EVERYTHING IS LOCKED BEHIND A PAYWALL.
    The content in the base game is a joke. Buy the Champion Edition instead.

    *Single Player Only* The combat is deep with iconic characters and varied playing styles. The story modes are serviceable. A newbie will find the basic gameplay difficult. A veteran on the other hand could chain incredible combos. So the higher the skill, the more rewarding Street Fighter V is.

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

    Street Fighter V is one of the best games with a amazing competitive scene, amazing online, updated game, and new characters every couple months

    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

    The game is pure rubbish. To the first match you have to wait two hours of licensing, finding a unique nickname (so what's the point to have a psnID??)
    Erased before the first match. Boring and crappy.

    A terrible launch, but a great improvement over the years, although not enough to reach the sky like other games in the franchise were able to in the past. A solid gameplay, balanced characters, good online component. Props for the decision to make every game able to update with new releases, which means that the base game is still valid even four years after it's release.

    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.

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

    Terrible. It's 1/4 of a game. You're locked out of so much content and basically forced to look at microtransactions because earning fight money is a complete joke.

    If you want a good game, look at UNICLR. This is trash.

    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]
