    Believe me they are playing it now. But fighting games need time to be judged fairly. The only thing I hope for is when they do review it, it will be a big one; like having a podcast just devoted to it like they did with MGS4 and Spore, and just talk the hell out of it. Ok, that may be too hopeful, since not all the GB staff are fighting gamers so they may run out of material or just don't know what to say.

    So to answer your question, its coming when its coming, but Its too big of a game for them to not do a review on this.

    They'll review it in time, I'm sure. This is absolutely not a game these guys would miss. Jeff is a fighting game fanboy, how could he? Do realize we still have a week until it comes out, and hardly anyone has reviewed it.

    They probably just need to play some online once it has come out to see how that fares.

    I want a review for this game from Ryan. Its kind of a given SF fans will love it and buy it, but what about those that arent so sold on fighting games, unlike Jeff and Brad.

    I assume it will be closer to the release date? They will either have big game reviews out a day or so before the game comes out, or on the release date.

    I heard on the Shoryuken forums that it leaked on torrent sites, so I'm guessing they could take advantage and play some online before the game comes out and get the review out day of. But you know, that is a little shady although they're doing nothing wrong it would be those on the other side. But yeah I think it's down to the online play and how that goes. I actually expect the review around Friday or something next week so they get a good couple of days online and more people buy the game around the country. This would help them judge the lag better I believe.


    BUUUT, it'll be out when it's out. Probably close to the release date, before or after. That's basically it.

    Part of me agrees with you. 

    I would like to see a nice long review from someone that really knows fighting games( truthfully that means i will have to go to 1up to get a good indepth review, no ofence to Jeff or Brad they just don't know as much about SF to really give you the insight about how much things have changed)

    What woud be nice is a "second opinion review"(a short review) from Ryan.

    O_O  wow, Karmum.  Please don't do that again.  My head almost esplodeds.
    And yes, I assume it'll be next week.  You'll just have to wait until next week's "I Love Mondays" episode to find out.

    I hope their love of fighting games doesn't overtake the majority of this week's and next week's Bombcast,because it's quite a niche thing.

    im really looking forward to their review for the sole fact that i know how much Jeff and Brad love fighting games.
    they will probably be able to put it through its paces and judge how well its balanced
