Happy Tuesday, Street
Fighters! The Super Street Fighter II Turbo High Definition Remix (whew!) Beta
will be available to download on Xbox LIVE Arcade tomorrow, Wednesday, June 25.
The SSFIITHDR Beta will be available for
all of those who have purchased Wolf of
the Battlefield: Commando 3 on LIVE Arcade. Sorry, PS3 kids, next time...
This unique Beta version of Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix will allow players to select from one of two Street Fighter characters, either Ryu or Ken, and battle online. This
Beta test will help Capcom stress-test the network code underlying the
incredible online features that power the multiplayer modes of the game. Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix Beta online modes include Player or “Quarter” Match, Ranked Match, and
Tournament Mode, as well as offline, local two-player matches (but that’s much
less fun, isn’t it?). The Super Street
Fighter II Turbo HD Remix Beta will run for approximately eight weeks,
ending around August 20 or whenever we decide that we’ve had enough people
using cheap moves on us online.
To gain access to the Beta:
Step 1: Buy Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3 for
800 MS Points (aka "render unto Ceasar what is Ceasar's")
Step 2: Select the “SFII HD
Remix Beta” option on the main menu of Wolf
Step 3: You will be taken to
a download blade where you can confirm your download (this will not be visible
until the code is live on Arcade tomorrow)
Step 4: Once the Beta has
finished downloading, head to the “Games” blade on your 360
Step 5: Fire up SSFIITHDR in the Demos section on the
Games blade and enjoy the online multiplayer goodness!
Pfft, already grabbed it a couple of days ago! ;P
