Microsoft released these images of Street Fighter 2: Hyper Fighting, upcoming summer Arcade title. They are dated a while back so they're from an old build, but they probably won't change the graphics.

The big deal is: You get to beat Optimusv2, from 2000 miles away, playing Ryu, with Zangief.
It just wont get any better
But Street Fighter is already online on Xbox LIVE with Street Fighter Anniversary Collection, in which you get Hyper and street fighter 3 online. i believe the only reason this version is not backwards compatiable is so they can release it on Xbox LIVE Arcade and make even more money. Street Fighter Anniversary Collection can be found in my local game shop for under £10, under £5 preowned. Essentially they are slightly updating the online side and charging more than the previous xbox version is now worth

SF2 on SF:AC is better than this xbox live arcade version as well.
I won't be buying it, personally. Inel nailed it - why pay for a stripped down SF2 (without Cammy, Fei Long, T Hawk, Dee Jay and all their stages) when slightly more cash would buy you a second hand copy of SFAC on Xbox with a better version of SF2 (with its many selectable game modes) and the utterly fantastic SF3 3rd Strike?
The why is obvious - SF AC isn't backwards compatible. If it were, there'd be little need for this Live Arcade version. It'll have Achievements, yeah, and possibly a better lobby system... but it's not enough for me.
ive been playing most 'aracde' (not modified MD ports) For years now Via MAME/Kaillera.. I dont see this as anything new or Special.. In fact it would be criminal if MS dont push Capcom to release SF / Saturn Pads like they did with the PS2 and SFII:A..
Ive tried playing SF on MAME with a 360 controller and its awfull to play with.
Also MS better do something better with their Arcade, as soon Wii and its 'Free' Live=Arcade is around the corner with an instant release of around 11-20 titles on day one. And Nintendo have thought into it with the nice 'Classic' controller which will be in shops too.
why didn't they choose to use super street fighter 2 turbo instead? The one for 3DO was actually a near-perfect arcade port and the best version of SF2 money can buy. They could have simply ported that one...
I don't get why they went with this crappy version.
Yes the 3DO have the best Music form any version out even DC & XBOX version.

i goin to kick some ass in this one on XBlive so get ready to be kick out.
I refuse to see the purpose of this game... I know Capcom is capable of pulling some awesome games out of nowhere(lost planet, Resident Evil, etc). What I don't understand is why do they keep releasing this Street Fighter game without changing anything? Why can't they just build a new graphics engine and redesign the game. To me it's annoying.
