I have been playing Street fighter 4 for too many hours right now. I will check in a minute but I think it may be over 40 hours. At first, the controls were frustrating but I got used to it. I dont understand why anyone would want to play with the d pad. I just use the stick on the 360 controller. It works just fine.

My frustration though is cancelling moves. For example, I use Sakura and when I do her EX Shuryoken I want to cancel in the middle by pressing the focus attack buttons. I try this in training mode and I get the timing down right and I can pull it off so many times in training mode. When I go online though, its a whole different story! I dont understand why it never ever works online. How can I perform the cancellation of my EX move time after time in training but never in online. I know the guy is gonna block it but I try it anyway to see if I can cancel and it does not work at all. I go back to training to see if I can really pull it off and I swear I can. I honestly dont know how to solve this. Its very frustrating that I know a move is going to be blocked so I know I should cancel but it just fails and the opponent gets a free hit.

Other than that its a great game.
