If you happened to catch my impression of Super Street Fighter II HD Remix (SSF2HR if you're nasty), then you know I liked the game. But there was and remains plenty of room for improvement, as both the Xbox 360/PS3 versions (especially the PS3 version) is riddled with bugs in both display/audio and gameplay. More to that, some curious efforts to re-balance the game have left the game unsatisfying for some, and despite lead designer David Sirlin's insistance otherwise, some good intentions have indeed led to Hell.
But the forums have spoken, at least for the most obvious glitches and match errors, as the official Capcom-Unity blog states that a patch is indeed on the way. What's inside the patch remains a mystery, but from the feedback I've heard (and I've heard a LOT), disappearing lifebars and network disconnects remain high on the list, while in the gameplay arena insanely incompetent hit-ratios could definitely be scaled back a bit. Or a lot, if anyone cares. This could be much to-do about nothing, as Street Fighter IV is set to invade both consoles in a few weeks, but having the download-only game fixed up proper would be FANTASTIC.
