I might have to get this for the PS3 instead.  Why aren't there more joysticks for the 360?  It's basically getting as many fighters as the ps3.

Isn't this just Ken and Ryu? what the fuck is the point of the beta then? Ken and Ryu will be suuuuuper balanced fighting against each other, then everyone else will suck balls? this is a glorified premium demo to a game you already own.

I'm sure they are also looking to stress test their matchmaking servers, look for network code bugs, see if the game has any issues on specific 360 SKUs, ...
there are dozens of reasons a beta test is good, if you can afford one.

That's the REAL reason to be psyched for the game.  The developers were also talking about utilizing a Halo 3 style stat system as well. 

As far as I know, you not only get the new HD Remix version with changed-up characters (rebalancing and a few move changes/additions) and new art, but you can also play the original SSF2T with the old sprites too.  Both are online.

The hate should be for HD Remix taking forever to be released; it seems like SF4 is going to come out before this game does.   :-\

It's Super Street Fighter II Turbo, so yes Fei Long is in.  He's going to be in the home version of Street Fighter 4, by the way.   :-*
