Super Street Fighter II: Turbo Revival

"Great fighting game that will blow you away!"

Gameplay - 9/10 - Simply amazing gameplay here! Exactly how you remember it on the old SNES but on a smaller screen. This pushes the GameBoy Advance's capabilities to the very limit, with the most colourful, easy to look at screen you could possibly dream of! The controls are very simple to get the hang of; the directional pad controls were and how your character moves and each of the actual buttons performs an attack on your opponent.

Story - 5/10 - Story? This is a fighting game, does it even have a story? Well I'm guessing that M.Bison is trying to conquer the world and your job is to gain control of a character and battle your way through many stages, in many different parts of the world and stop M.Bison.
Also you get different endings, depending on which character you complete the game with, with each ending kind of telling a story.

Audio/Video - 9/10 - Superb here! The sounds sound just the same as they did all them years ago on the old Super Nintendo. Each stage has a different theme, which surprisingly aren't annoying and wont have you reaching for the volume control. Also the sounds being played are very basic flat tunes so they will not eat up all of your battery power!

As for the Video; No faults here. A mini intro is played at the beginning of the game, very colourful art is used so it tends to be nice and easy on the eye!

Replayability - 10/10 - With 8 different difficulty levels for you to battle your way through, you are going to be a very busy person! Plus there is many survival modes, break the car mode, break the barrel mode, etc. Your not going to want to put this game down for a while, so you better make sure that you stock up on those batteries!!

To buy or to rent? - Buy, definitely! Relive all of those classic Street Fighter memories, over and over again in the palm of your hand!

Final Score (not an average) - I am going to rate this game a 9/10. You may be asking why I didn't give it a 10. My answer? No game ever created deserves a solid 10/10 rating. Every game will have at least one flaw, whether it is big or small, it's in there. The one flaw from this game is sometimes you feel as if the game cheats on you to win on the higher levels, which can be frustrating. But all in all Street Fighter Turbo Revival 2 is a classic fighting game for your GameBoy Advance.
