Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix is almost complete, and we’ve got some new screens that show just how well it’s coming along!
The hand drawn character art by Udon Entertainment looks so amazing, it sets a new standard for 2-D animation in a video game. To illustrate the difference, here is a picture of the actual in game appearance of Ken Masters, both in the original game and the HD optimized remake:
Notice the difference?
SSF2HDR will be available very soon on XBLA and PSN, and is expected to set records for the longest combination of acronyms ever written by gaming journalists. Anyone who has ever played a fighting game should be excited to get their hands on the definitive version of the title that started it all. For those that haven’t, SSF2HDR presents an ingenious way to expose a new generation of gamers to a classic, combining old-school action with cutting-edge visuals, not unlike a cougar with a really phenomenal boob job.
All we have to go on right now is this trailer featuring Ryu and Ken battling one another, drawn in an art style that is somewhat similar to “Killer 7″ or “No More Heroes”. Is there a connection? Does The enigmatic Suda 51 have something to do with this?
