The sexy spy gets ready to pound some flesh on iPhone soon
The suited Secret Agent, Crimson Viper, is making her way on to the iPhone in the next roster update for Street Fighter IV. Capcom haven't given a date yet but expect her to appear in a month or so and cost you absolutely nothing.
We found Street Fighter IV to be a superb game and arguably the finest fighting game on the App Store when we reviewed it back in March...
I expected Street Fighter IV on the iPhone to be bad. Really bad. With this preconception floating round my head as I played the game, I was pleasantly surprised by how competent it was. The controls are largely successful, the character models look fantastic, and there are a variety of interesting features tied into the package. If you’re a Street Fighter fan with an iPhone, this is well worth picking up. Be under no illusion though; fighting games aren't designed with a touch screen in mind, and although competent, Street Fighter veterans won't find much of a reason to bother with the game. It's just awkward in comparison to the console versions. That said, Street Fighter IV on iPhone can still be considered a success, and Capcom really do deserve a medal for pulling it off. I thought it couldn't be done, and I'll happily admit I was wrong.
