If that's linking to one of Sirlin's crappy rants about how every game isn't SF2 and he's still bitter no one's playing HD Remix (his game) then no. He's got 0 credibility. Do a bit of Googling and you'll find Sirlin's notorious for bitching about anything that he hasn't taken part in. Hell the douche bag was even fired after HD Remixes releases.
And to be perfectly honest, practice mode and trial mode are all you need to learn the game. Seriously- what DOESN'T the game teach you?! You'll say "How to play" well of course it tells you how to play. Is there anyone who doesn't know back is block and the directions move your character?! And why should the game teach you strategies? That's up to the player to figure out, just as it's the case in an RTS or an FPS.
Possibly having a "New to SF" mode would of made things much much better. And for the veterans, they would simply have a "Straight to Hardcore" mode or something like that.
Yes I mean the awesome game that was a a HD remake of the already 15 year old awesome game. THAT'S nostalgia. And the game's infinitely harder than SFIV so what's with the crying? Either way if newbies really care that much, head over to capcom-unity blog and tell them what you think. And hopefully they'll take your feedback onboard and add to the inevitable SFIV:ii

MOST other games, including fighting games tend to call that "Easy" mode. But alas...Street Fighter IV forgot easy was suppose to be easy.
Note: I am im no way, and I would like to assume Joe as well (and anyone else that might agree with his review) are saying SF4 is in someway a bad game. I think all us of agree it is a solid title, and fun game, however it does have it's fault. EVERY GAME has it's faults. Killzone 2 recieved a lower score from Edge, than it did from all other publications. Where is the furor over that? Not every reviewer will like a game the same. Happened to MGS4, Halo 3, Gears of War 2, any big name title that has been released. It's refreshing to see a different point of view. Joe's review is one of few that actually mention the unusual difficulty. All the others praise it without mention at all. But Joe's atleast mentions it while praising it. This goes to show you that not all gamers are the same as well. Some excel at other games than the rest and vice versca.
