Capcom and I go way back. When I say way back, I mean in the good ol’ days with the original arcade version of Ghosts and Goblins (circa 1985). Throughout the years, I’ve played Megaman, Bionic Commando, Resident Evil and others. However, none of these games captured my attention (and my wallet) more than Street Fighter did.

Today, I found out that Capcom is going to release two Street Fighter games to XBLA later this year. Super Street Figther II Turbo HD Remix and Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo are going to be given a full makeover by the people at UDON studios. All the characters, the character select screens, and the backgrounds are going do be redone pixel-for-pixel.

This is pretty exciting, I loved both of these games and spent countless hours playing each of them. It looks like I’m about to go in for round 3 once these games are released. Oh yeah, this means that I finally have to get off my butt and get an XBOX 360. Now, I wonder if they make an arcade like controller – I could never play Street Fighter on a game pad very well.
