The Major’s updated his blog to announce that Capcom’s Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix is Deal of the Week.

What does this mean? It means it’s now down 400 MS Points from 1200 to 800.

So if you still haven’t got it, maybe now’s the time to dive in.

Capcom’s not planning to patch Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix with Trophy support.

Replying to a post over on the US PS Blog, Capcom’s John Diamonon told reader that “trophies were never promised for SFHD and aren’t going to be implemented.”

That’s that then. Another game without Trophy support for PS3 owners.

Thanks, Joystiq.

According to a slew of reports, Capcom’s launching the PSN version of Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix in Europe tomorrow.

The PS3 version has been long-delayed, thanks to technical problems. The 360 game was released last November.

Thanks, Blerk.

Evo 2009 will take place on July 17-19 in Las Vegas, the event’s confirmed.

The tournament-heavy gathering focuses solely on fighting games, the roster this year including Street Fighter IV, Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, Soulcalibur IV, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Guilty Gear XX Accent Core and Street Fighter III: Third Strike.

There’s more detail on the official site.

Thanks, Kotaku.

Capcom’s confirmed there’s a patch on the way for Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, although it hasn’t detailed what it’s going to fix.

“I would like to assure you that while I haven’t been able to respond to many inquiries on the forums, Capcom has been listening and we will be fixing many of the issues that many of you have been experiencing,” said a US staffer on his blog.

Any chance of fixing the European PS3 release? Full thing through the link.

SCEE is refusing to release the PS3 version of Super Street Fighter HD Remix in Europe because of “faults and other problems,” according to Capcom UK spokesman Leo Tan.

Supposedly, the game must be “redone,” according to this ThePSN.co.uk report.

Capcom is working on yet another version to submit to SCEE “within three weeks.”

The fighter was successfully release on the US PSN late last year.

Thanks, Joystiq.

That was probably worth doing, then. Capcom’s announced that Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix has sold over 250,000 units since it released at the end of November.

“HD Remix has shattered both day one and week one sales records and will most likely break 30 day sales records as well,” said Capcom on its blog.

“It’s on its way to becoming the highest grossing digital title ever.”

Grats to all. More through the link.

Microsoft’s offering free Live multiplay on a bunch of XBLA games over December, including A Kingdom for Keflings, Aegis Wing, Bomberman Live, Hardwood Hearts, Hardwood Spades, UNO, Small Arms and Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. Which is nice.

So if you’re a Silver member looking to try out “proper” Live, here’s your chance.

There’s more detail on GamerScoreBlog.

The US PS Blog’s confirmed that Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix will launch on PSN on November 25.

This almost certainly means that this November 26 date for the Live release is correct.

A good thing: it means we can stop typing Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix.

Please, God, let this be true. Joystiq’s carrying a screenshot of Capcom’s NXE store section, which includes a November 26 date for Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix.

That’s next week.

We’ll check with Capcom when people get into the office in the UK.

Speaking to the Street Fighter Blog, Capcom’s assured that the oft-delayed Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix is still planned as a 2008 release.

“We are in the home stretch,” said Capcom associate producer Rey Jimenez. “We’re basically closing out all the bugs that came up in the open beta and a few other open issues… We’re on track to release the game this year and barring any unforeseen catastrophic event, that should not be changing.”

Go Ryu, etc. Thanks Siliconera.

We’re not that bothered about missing E3 this year, but we do wish we were going to Comic Con. Capcom’s detailed its showing at the San Diego event, taking place just after E3, and it sounds “fun”. Aside from the enjoyable aspect, the firm’s promising an exclusive Resident Evil 5 trailer, so that’s a good enough reason to not let your guard down after E3.

Here’s what you can expect from Capcom’s Comic Con games-wise:

Bionic Commando
Bionic Commando: Rearmed
Dark Void
MotoGP 08
Mega Man 9
Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix
Neopets Puzzle Adventure
Flock!
Plunder
plus Capcom Mobile games

Exclusive trailers:
Resident Evil 5
Resident Evil: Degeneration CG movie
SF IV CG animated mini-movie trailers

- plus, some surprise game demos and trailers!

Vivendi’s making a big showing there as well, we’re told, so if you’re in the area following the LA show it may be worth hiring a car and driving south. We did that once. We were trying to get to Mexico. We’ll tell you about that another time.

Eurogamer‘s reporting that if you buy Commando 3: Wolf of the Battlefield next Wednesday, you’ll get an invite to the Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix beta – or SSF2THDR as we like to call it – thrown in for nowt.

Commando 3 will cost you 800 MS Points (a handful of coppers) and coupled with the fact that you get the beta invite, we reckon it might well be worth looking in to.
