Lag a ‘huge problem’ for Street Fighter IV on the internet

The UK’s official Xbox 360 magazine posed an inevitable question to Street Fighter IV producer Yoshinori Ono: How’s it going to play on the web? For his part, Ono was quite frank, saying, “Obviously lag will be a huge problem for online play. We’re working on it. It’s quite difficult for 3D Street Fighter at the moment.”
Asked how the developer is going about, er, combating the problem, Ono got technical. “In order to prevent the lag we’re thinking about trying to balance it up at [the] user interface level and input timing,” he stated. “We still haven’t got a complete plan as yet. We’re still working on it. That’s all we can say at the moment.” Okay … we’ll let you get back to that, then.
