New Combat Features: Focus Attacks and Ultra Combos
Although Street Fighter IV is designed to draw heavily from past
game features in its franchise history, it does offer some
stunning new gameplay options. The first of these are Focus
Attacks. These moves allow players to absorb the energy from an
attack and quickly counter with their own. Used properly, Focus
Attacks allow for tremendous flexibility during combat and are
the end result of efforts by the game's development team to
evolve combat away from the rigid memorization of set combination
patterns, giving players the freedom to be creative against
nents. The other new combat feature are new powered up moves
called Ultra Combos. Like standard combos their purpose is to
unleash maximum damage on an nent, but unlike the combos of
old, when performed correctly these long strings of punches,
kicks and moves result in changes to the in-game camera angle and
quick cinematics which illustrate the strength of your skills
like never before. Taken together, these two new features herald
Street Fighter IV as the new king of the fighter genre and a
force to be reckoned with for years to come.
