I'm not buying any game online because it gives Microsoft and Sony more incentive to move toward digital distribution and make disc games obsolete. If that happens then us gamers get shafted because we wouldn't be able to trade games or resell them on ebay. And it also guarantees ISP's placing bandwidth caps. Don't know about you guys but when I buy something I don't want Microsoft or Sony limiting my options on a property I own.

Yeah I bought it too. I kind of winced, because as soon as I “confirmed download” I realized I now have a goofy number of MS points. Those bastards.

It's pretty good. The lack of any real deck-building hurts it tremendously, but the game mechanics are well done. I'm enjoying it quite a bit for $10.

One of the best ways to spend $10 on XBLA. vidGuy's right about the lack of deck customization truly sucking... but for $10 I don't feel too bad about it, what's there is very solid (the decks... even after you've unlocked everything are still not so great however)

I find it interesting how all the shadows in the background move to the left, but the shadows of the two fighters move to the right.

"We're not quite sure that the big M and Xbox Live are giving Steam a run for its money with deals quite yet..."

I do not use steam because my laptop cannot handle games too well, but I would say that XBL would do even better if they would just use standard currency, rather than the silly points system. Either that, or sell you the amount of points you need, rather than just enough for you to have insufficient points left over to make another purchase, i.e. forced into buying 1000 points in order to buy a 800 point game.

This way they can get you to buy in-store cards. It also has a psychological effect where you can never really be sure of the real-world value of an item; it's a way of making you forget you're spending actual money.

It works out if you buy the point cards for less than face value, which you can find if you look hard enough.

I felt this game was a great value when I bought it last year for $15, but then SFIV changed everything and I haven't touched it since. Not sure if it's worth the $10 now unless you're a diehard Super Turbo fan. If not, you might want to save that money for Marvel instead.

A true Capcom/fighting game fan would have them all, as each game brings something different to the table. :)
