Been playing it all morning.
So far, very impressed actually. There's even integration with Home.. Just got a Dan T Shirt..
So the optional install is 2GB and once that is on, there are no noticable load times. Don't know what it is like without.
The default Arcade mode is just like the arcade, so if you are online then challengers pile in all the time. So much so that you basically never get to play the CPU. As such, I've just been taking on anyone and everyone all morning. I've got at least 10 online wins as I unlocked the trophy for that. Have more losses than wins though.
You get quite a few Ryu/Ken scrubs. Mainly Ryu actually. Probably because this is Japan... Anyway, they tend to drop after their first loss. I'm really enjoying kicking their asses.
I think I have now played online with every character bar the unlockable ones. Lots of players seem to have unlocked them all already (!?!?). Gouken seems to be pretty nails. Dunno if they are balanced or not. The others seem OK though.
So played online all morning and the code seems awesome. I haven't noticed any issues at all. Seems just like playing in the arcade, sans the tobacco smoke.
First time I have played most of the characters too. I think I may get into Abel and Crimson Viper from the new cast, even though I don't have a clue what I'm doing with them. I think I've won 2 matches with Viper already. Inexperienced opponents don't seem to know what's coming..
So far, seems very polished and I'm enjoying it a lot. After the massive let down that was the RE5 demo, it's good to see that (it looks like) Capcom have made a really good effort with this port.
