After playing the Streetfighter - Ryu Vs Sagat flash game last year, and seeing the MAME / flash remakes from EasyRetro such as Backstreet Soccer, I knew it was only a matter of time before the first full flash remake of the 1992 arcade classic Street Fighter II appeared online. Street Fighter II - Champions Edition is now available to play in your browser, and it looks,  sounds and feels almost exactly the same as the original!
