Just a minor announcement: Street Fighter IV’s “Power Up Pack” is up and available for free download on Xbox LIVE Marketplace and PlayStation Network. If you happen to jump on the Xbox 360 version today, you’ll be prompted from the main menu -- after a small title update -- to download the extra content.
“Power Up Pack” is the legendary Championship Mode update we’ve been talking about for the last quarter century. It adds tournament play, a new ranking system and the ability to upload and watch replays on both systems. There are some tiny differences in the replay ability between the two platforms that you can read more about here.
The update is a quick one, which will probably reenergize the “it’s on the disc” debate, but at least it’s free this time.
So, what’s up guys? You playing Street Fighter IV today?

[Update: Fixed PS3 release stuff. Thanks, guys.]

GIMME GIMME GIMME.
anyway, i love the update. i seem to be getting a lot more stable matches now. i primarily use the "Arcade Request" setting to get into online games b/c SFIV's search mechanic is abysmal. but i rarely got through a single Arcade mode match before getting a 3-4 bar, stable Championship Mode matchup. good stuff, Capcom.
I am still trying to check out of some reviews only to find that I can't seem to get any response from the capcom servers.
sounds like a personal problem not having anything in common with Street Fighter.
The update for the most part is lazy programming, they should of just replaced Ranked Matches with this.
That said, its awesome to play against better competition and I have seen the elusive 'green bars' quite a few times now due to the update. Gameplay wise, I think they just made Sagat's health a bit lower.
I doubt it's on the disc considering its size.
That's fucking retarded. I don't care if it's free. I'd gladly pay 5-10 bucks for a real replay mode, as SFIV is probably my most played game in the last 6 months.
