Today see's the release of the much anticipated beat 'em up, Street Fighter IV.

The Street Fighter series has been going strong for over decade now, so it's debut on the current generation of consoles is a big deal. Reviews have been strong and I have to be honest, up until now, I have not been too excited about it. Probably because I have been busy playing Killzone 2 and Call of Duty: World at War.

And the more I've been thinking about it, the more excited I am getting.

I never owned a Snes, but I remember playing Street Fighter 2 round my mates house almost every day after school.

Years later, I bought the Street Fighter 2 anniversary edition on the Playstation 2 and last year, I treated myself to Street Fighter 3 Alpha on the PSP - a purchase that almost makes up for the lack of great titles released on that format last year.

The thing with Street Fighter IV though, I am not too sure what format to get it on. The PS3 has the superior controller, that I have no doubt of. But the Xbox 360 has the online community to go with it.

So do I go for superior controls or the opportunity to play a few friends online?
