Street Fighter IV already broken?

Monday 1-Sep-2008 10:38 AM Infinite combo discovered just weeks after it hits American arcades...

Street Fighter IV could already be fighting balance problems after it was discovered that character El Fuerte has an infinite combo.

The infinite can be seen here, starting at 0:27 and ending at 0:38 when the player messes up.

The infinite sees El Fuerte cancelling standing fierce punch into a cancelled run, over and over again. The only break in the combo comes when the opponent is dizzied but El Blaze can simply start the infinite again.

Infinites are often frowned upon within fighting games, as they give a player a chance to win the match by continuing one combo until his opponent dies. An infinite for Ivy in Soul Calibur IV has recently been discovered too.

What will be interesting is how Capcom deals with this discovery. Will the arcade version be patched? Will Capcom ignore it? What's most likely to happen is Capcom will correct this come the console release. We shall see.
