Don't bother, just wait for Super Ultra Street Figher 4 Turbo Arcade Off the Record Dark Arisen edition.

If you actually play SF4 you'll realize the editions are just expansion packs really.
... expansions you have to pretty much pay for if you want to continue playing online.

$15 to upgrade to the new version if you have AE already, and it's adding multiple new game mechanics, balance tweaks, and 5 characters.
Arcade Edition was probably the worst deal money wise from Super, but even that wasn't bad.
Ultra will be $40 for anyone who doesn't have the game already, and they'll be removing GFWL.
It's actually a really fucking good deal.
They also simply called it Ultra to cut down on the lengthy version names.
Please stop using dumb memes.

Even as a good deal, I can see why people are getting really sick of Capcom's expansion sequel syndrome. I remember the shitstorm over Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3.
Figured theyd just use the cast from SFxT. Was hoping to see some of the older fighters.
Yeah, but given that each char is about 1.2 million smackers in logistical throughput to create, it's not terribly surprising we'll be only getting one "new" character out of the five.

Announced not even six months after the first one was released and then it came out the same year.
when's mahvel

I wouldn't call that a meme, I'm just pointing out how re-release happy Capcom is with their games sometimes, they did the same thing with SF 2, and it really does get a little senseless buying Capcom games when they have a habit of making a better variant a year or so later. I'll give them credit that this go-around it's just an extra $15 bucks for people who already have SF 4 but damn they get carried away sometimes.

consider the fact that sf4 came out in 2008. then ae came out in 2010. then a free patch for ae to ae 2012. now ultra in 2014.
[editline]16th November 2013[/editline]
i would hardly call 4 years between the release of ae and ultra to be "carried away"

It would be alot easier if this was just Downloadable Content.
It will be DLC too.
Hugo looks nice. They've actually kept his Third Strike fighting style intact which'll be fun. PALM, PALM, PALM, GIGAS, U DED
You guys have to understand how much work goes into adding characters and mechanics to a fighting game. It's deceptive, but fighting games are among some of the hardest to make from a design standpoint.

And a lot more expensive, if they followed regular prices for DLC.
