Street Fighter IV is a fighting game that
is famous for it's combo moves and it's unique characters. The game shows the
stylistic conventions of fighting games through the combos, arenas and
characters presented to the player.
Compared to other big name fighting games,
such as Tekken and Mortal Kombat, Street fighter IV has distinguished itself as
the most popular due to the many competitions held at major gaming exhibitions
around the world.
You
must defeat all your opponents to face your arch nemesis and then the boss
'Seth' who is a mix of most of the characters in the game and a creation of the
main bad guy 'M.Bison' who is trying to lure 'Ryu' into a battle with Seth so
he can extract Ryu's data and complete the 'BLECE' project which will allow
evil to rule over everything.
In
the story of the game you have the choice to play as one of 19 characters, who
each have a unique backstory which is revealed slowly after you beat a selected
amount of opponents. You can repeat the story mode as many times as you wish
with as many characters as you wish. The characters in the game will capture
the emotion of the attention of the user with the interesting stories assigned
to each unique character.
Street
Fighter IV was created on a custom engine that specifically developed certain
parts of the game to work in a chosen way for example, the combo system in
Street Fighter IV is different from any other game as the 'super gauge' fills
the user has the choice to sacrifice it for a quick combo, or let it fill to
the end for a 'super combo'.
The
mechanics in the game are very fun and free, unlike other fighting games,
street fighter allows you to create your own custom combinations which may not
take away as much damage but will be entertaining to achieve.
The
physics in the game are flawless as the custom engine specifically manufactured
them in this way.
Each
character has it's own individual personality that the user can associate
themselves with. The characters have different moves and different attributes
that will give them the upper hand in the game if used correctly. For example,
Guile has the ability to fire projectiles, this could allow the user to keep
their distance from the opponent and still win the match.
Most
of the characters in Street Fighter IV have been brought in from previous
Street Fighter games and all of them have unrivaled appearances and
personalities that can relate to pretty much anyone, no matter what your age,
gender or race is. The characters follow the conventions of the genre to an
extent. Different people will use the different characters in many different
ways, this makes the game very unpredictable. Users can unlock different colour
costumes for characters and can also purchase different outfits for them.
The
Street Fighter gameplay has made it one of the most recognizable games in
recent years. The single and multiplayer battles are unrivalled on similar
games as they are so unpredictable, the user must play close attention to every
second of the game if they want to ensure a win in the game and this is very
engaging. There are many elements to the game that are key to the success of
it. For example, the combo system is one,
the simple but outstanding characters is another and the recognizable theme music is a third. The gameplay engages the user with that narrative as the story can lead to the user despising another character and wanting to beat it due to it's cheap moves, big ego, funny outfit or anything else. Capcom usually make a new updates for the game which correct errors or bugs. After a few years another version of the game is released on different platforms, this includes new characters, new stages, new stories and more unlock able items such as concept art and music.

The age rating of the game is 12 as it has violent
themes and some characters can be scary for young children, so the game's
target audience is anyone from the age of 12+. The game contains violence and
themes of hatred between characters.
The game appeals directly to a fan of fighting games as Street Fighter is such a well known name and the quality of games produced under this name is often rated very high when reviewed.
Compared to Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter IV is very modest. Mortal Kombat is very gory and different in many ways to street fighter in terms of characters and mechanics, but still has the same target audience.
