If you’re like me and you rushed out to download Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3 on XBLA in hopes of trying out the Super Streetfighter II Turbo HD Remix, you may want to hold on to your MS Points for a little longer. It seems that the beta is not available right now and won’t be until June 25th – exactly two weeks from now. Here’s the official word from
Capcom’s blog
:
"unfortunately there’s also a bit of confusion swirling around the details about the Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix Beta (that you get free!). Let me try and clear this up.
To play the SSF2T HD Remix Beta, here’s what you do:
1) Buy Commando 3 on XBL. Play it, love it.
2) In the Commando 3 menu, you’ll notice an option for “Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix Beta” (insert long name joke here). If you hit that option, you’ll get an error. Why is this? Because the SSF2T HD Remix Beta isn’t live until June 25th.
3) If you hit the Beta menu option on or after June 25th, 2008, you’ll be taken to an XBL blade offering to let you download the new SSF2T HD Remix Beta.
4) Download the Beta, and then you can find it your “Games Library” under “Demos.”
5) Start it up and commence dragon-punchery."
Gee I can’t understand why there was such confusion. Not like it was mentioned before today that it wouldn’t be available until June 25th.
Nice job Capcom.
