First 'Street Fighter 4' Screen Shots

Back in the day when I had my Super Nintendo (the last Nintendo console I've ever owned), I use to have friends come over just to do battle on 'Street Fighter'. Hours were spent trying to get bragging rights over who kicked the most ass on that game. While I know that there have been other reincarnations of the game on other consoles, nothing ever equaled up to that one.

Well according to 1UP, they're going to give it another try with the intro of 'Street Fighter 4'. But one of the most interesting things is that they have obviously improved the graphics, but will keep the 2D game play. Check the bullet points:

• The graphics are "polygonal but the gameplay is strictly 2D."
• There will be new moves, locations, and gameplay features,
• The standard six button control scheme remains.
• Ryu and Ken return along with Chun-Li and Dhalsim, but the rest of the fighters haven't been revealed.

It's expected to play on the PS3 and Xbox 360 platforms, but no release date as of yet.
