Some songs take too long to start.
and you would only get to enjoy the song once the first round is over.
in the sf2 series the first few bars of the song leaves the big impression. while in sf4 you have the intros that nobody cares about
Yeah, that compounds the problem because the song gets interrupted before it can really gets started. But I didn’t like it in SF2 either how the song would speed up when low on health and loop the same 5 seconds over and over. It’s a corny effect and it doesn’t really make the match any more tense. Plus it sounds like shit and it happens too often. It should only happen on the final round (round 3) if at all.
Imma start a riot (or maybe not depending on agreement with the following statement).
SSF4 music > STHD music
Round 1 FIGHT!!
Not hard to accomplish, considering the HDR elevator music amounts to aural Ambien. I always play HDR with the original tunes.
Okay - looks like there’ll be more agreement than I thought! SSFIV’s music on the whole is probably gonna go down in my collection as best SF album. Yup.
Surely Cody’s theme is far too mellow isn’t it?
I’d much prefer it if it was done in the same style as his music from the SSFIV ‘New Fighters’ promo. I listened to that on loop for ages when I first heard it. Oh well, n’mind.
Some of the themes are so amazing on my home stereo, just hook my Polk Hitmaster up to my Xbox and blast out the themes, god, Cody’s and Adon’s just tear it up.
Shout out to Juri, Balrog, Dee Jay, Fei Long, Gen, and T. Hawk themes as well.
What is truly amazing is how good E. Honda’s theme is. Like, I never liked his theme before, and had low expectations for it, but it turned out to blow my mind.
Does anyone know the tune used in this trailer here?

Solar Eclipse is easily my favorite standard BGM out of all the stages.
In regards to SSFIV music > HDR, outside of Cammy’s theme (her SFIV theme is garbage) I’d agree.
I love the music. there’s a lot more “OOMPH” now.
gens theme, trial challenge theme and character select theme are too good.
gens rival battle with chun in the arcade stage gives me street fighter alpha 2 nostalgia. the stage is set to the run down back alley and his theme plays.
On the note of songs being “interrupted” by gameplay (i.e. full ultra, low health, etc.)… can anyone confirm if the character themes do the same thing? Or is it simply the character theme throughout as heard on the YouTube links?
I love how SFIV went from worst game music of the series to best game music of the series. I guess Capcom listened when we told them their music was trash.
I wish that the original rival themes were changed too…or were they? ^^
The original themes weren’t bad( or at least sakuras was good) but you hardly had a chance to hear them was the problem.
Damn man, why does Balrog have to have the best song?
BTW what part of the USA is Balrog from, New Orleans?
Balrog seems to get the best everything. Best normals, best alternate costume in vanilla, best alternate costume in Super, best remix song. Oh, and in the original his stage is in Las Vegas, not sure he if lived there.
Someone should get on Deejay’s theme and drop a fat dub bass on it to make it x10 as hype.
Tricky ruled (note the past tense, '95/'96 was a long time ago), but you’re still an idiot.
Any news on the Korean/Marketplace/Whatever you want to call it, stage? I’ve missed a few pages XD
