SCEE blocks Street Fighter HD release due to ‘faults and other problems’

Go figure. Although American players have been able to enjoy Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix for quite some time now, European PS3 owners have been left in the dark. We’ve heard the cries before: “blame Sony,” they’d say.

thePSN.co.uk had a chat with Capcom UK’s Leo Tan to find out why SCEE is denying release of the game. According to Tan, Capcom has already submitted the game to SCEE twice. However, SCEE is declining release of the game, noting “faults and other problems.” Supposedly, the game must be “redone.”

Capcom is working on yet another version to submit to SCEE “within three weeks.” We find it quite strange that, in spite of a successful release in the US, Sony’s European counterpart has become the sole roadblock in this game’s worldwide release. Certainly, there must be some reason why they’d constantly delay this game.
