sf4benchmark Street Fighter IV Coming to a PC Near You; Can You Run It?
Wondering if Street Fighter IV’s PC release will run on your rig? Capcom released a benchmark program for you to find out.
Over at 4Gamer.net you can download a 397MB zip file with a benchmark program that – - after a lengthy installation – - runs through a match between Ryu and Sakura for your fireball-throwing viewing pleasure. After that, Cammy and Crimson Viper duke it out, but I ended the demo there, so I don’t know if there are others that follow. You can also adjust graphics settings and resolutions to see just how well your computer can manage all the sumi-e inkstyle comboing.
An under-powered machine like mine required throttling down the details, which left a pale, detail-less Ryu and Sakura fighting in a barren wireframe vacuum at 28 frames per second. Sigh. If only it ran on the Source engine.
The PC version of Street Fighter IV comes out July 7, 2009. I wonder if the pay-to-download extra costumes for the consoles come packed in? Required specs after the jump.
