It’s no secret that desk makes awesomely creative videos, but my favorite one might be this short exhibition featuring both playable characters in the beta version of SSF2T HD Remix. We rarely get hands-on opportunities to explore any major fighting game during development. It’s great to see what madness almost made it into the final product.

Super Street Fighter 2 HDR Beta: Combo Music Video

Here are some highlights to watch for:
1:35 Ken does five Shoryukens in one sequence. That last one is all sorts of satisfying.
1:53 Non-knockdown sweep combos are dope.
2:00 Juggling DP after super is dope, especially if it involves a change of direction.
2:19 Low short into low strong is a dope link.
2:27 Two fierce uppercuts in one combo is dope.

Of course Ken’s the main attraction since his beta version had those ridiculous Dragon Punch juggles. This video goes all out, showing basically every combination possible. Ryu seems tame by comparison since his fake fireball can’t even be used in combos.
