Ton of content and super solid fighting. Graphics are getting dated at this point - original sf4 was 6 years old by this point - but the painterly style and nice animations make it look better than sf5. Maybe capcom's best mix of casual baiting and real tech skill. 1 frame links and advanced techniques mean there's still a large barrier for high level play. Elena backdash is kind of ridiculous. A great value purchase today, but as expected the only people left online are forgotten gods.

FGC net complained about this game a lot when it was out but sf5 made everyone realize how good they had it.
