This is it folks! Finally, the iPhone is becoming a rich portable gaming device in the likes of the Sony PSP and Nintendo DS. Recently, the classic Final Fantasy I and II games were released. I’m currently finishing FF I and loving every single minute playing it. But that would have to stop for now. Because every video gamer’s favorite game  just made its way to the iPhone. I’m talking about Street Fighter, in its fourth incarnation.

Hey, wait up fanboy! Don’t you want to finish reading this post first before you hit that “install” button on your iPhone’s Apps Store Menu? Alright, go ahead do it, and then read this post again.

So, what’s in store for us Street Fighter-loving fanboys from Street Fighter IV for the iPhone?  I’m still downloading the game from the Apps Store so I couldn’t really say anything about the game’s look, feel and game physics. But the TUAW folks were able to witness the game in action and even played it right before it went live on the Apps Store.

According to TUAW don’t expect too much on game depths from SF IV for the iPhone. Definitely, the iPhone controls will have to suffer given that it relies on the touchscreen features of the iPhone. While you will be able to pull off some nice Hadukens, the control factor still leaves too much to desire.

But, do you really care about this flaw at all? I know you’re not. I bet you’re downloading and installing it right now. If you haven’t installed it yet, here’s the iTunes Link.
