in life , there be three thing that be certain : death , tax , and Capcom 's inability to count up . Arcade Edition -lrb- AE -rrb- be the third go Capcom have have with Street Fighter 4 and unlike the previous version , Super Street Fighter 4 -lrb- Super -rrb- , ae take sf4 backwards in game balance and ultimately seem to be a misguided attempt to cash in on sf4 's success . in term of add character , ae pale in comparison to Super . when Super be introduce , it add 10 new character to the sf4 roster while ae only add 4 new character to Super 's roster . while most of the addition Super bring in character-wise be praise by the community -lrb- ibukus , Guy , Juri -rrb- the new character in AE just leave people scratch they head . if you make a list of character people want to be include in AE , I be fairly sure yun and yang would not be anywhere near the top . however , since ae give you all the character from the previous version , it still seem like a great deal ... until you play against Yun . and you will play against Yun ... a lot . like all fight game , sf4 have have minor tweak to make the character more balanced . even though total equality be nigh impossible , you do not want a handful of character destroy the rest of the cast . Super have some standout -lrb- rufus , balrog -rrb- but overall , I feel it be a decently balanced game . I expect AE edition to continue the trend and smooth out the playing field . I be wrong . while most of the character from Super get significant nerf , Yun and Yang be grossly overpower . in essence , Capcom water down most of the previous cast and place two shark in the tank . be yun and yang unbeatable ? absolutely not , but if you be not one of the twin , you be go to have a nasty uphill fight . the balance issue in AE be boggle . pro + 4 New character + neat replay mode and search engine + cheap price con - the 4 new character be awful . two more shotokan and yun and yang ? - horrible balance issue - another version of sf4 conclusion : if you love Street Fighter , you be go to buy this . if you have never buy sf4 , this be the version you should get . however , I be disappointed that Capcom be unable to build upon the solid Super Street Fighter 4 version . this do not feel like a step forward , it feel like a step to the side and then a step back . pity .
