It&#8217;s dumbed down, ala the Marvel versus games, and has all the flash of that series as well.  However, it&#8217;s a bit more true to the <b>SF<\/b> world and I love it.  The cross combos are fun and spectacular to watch, the roster is huge and rather diverse, and there are plenty of modes to tinker with.  It&#8217;s taken all the good from the <b>SF4<\/b> games and carried it over.  The downside is that a lot of it looks familiar.  <\/p>\n<p>We should point out that Poison is exactly as I envisioned her to be.  Over the top and ridiculous.  The fact that the game has a story at all is kinda cool, and the rival battles are somewhat meaningful and fun.  While I got this from <b>GameFly<\/b>, I&#8217;ll be sad to send it back.  But, with all the DLC planned, a GOTY version would be welcome.  I&#8217;m still waiting on <b>UMVC3<\/b> for that very reason.  So glad I didn&#8217;t take the plunge for the initial release.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m quite enjoying the arcade nature of this game.
