Games Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix: The Trailers
Posted by Earnest "Nex" Cavalli on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 11:07 PM
Capcom's gorgeous remake of Super Street Fighter II Turbo comes to the Xbox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Network on November 27 and to celebrate (read: convince you to buy the damn thing) the company has released two official trailers, each radder than the last.
Combining Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix's classic combat and gorgeously redrawn high definition aesthetics with Joe Esposito's Karate Kid track "You're The Best" may be manipulative marketing aimed squarely at my nostalgia button, but damn if it isn't effective.
Capcom, if I was wearing a hat I'd take it off, fill it full of hugs and kisses and hand it to you. Then I'd ask if you had a sister.

Seriously, though, I thought you were overselling it, but by the end of the second teaser I was entirely convinced.

B: Anyone who plays as Chun Li is a cheater.
