Super Street Fight II Turbo HD Remix has become the best-selling downloadable game title on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network to date, selling over 250,000 units since its release on November 25th, 2008.

The game shattered both day one and week one sales records and according to Capcom, may have also broken the 30 days sales record on top of it all. It’s on it’s way to become the highest grossing digital title of all time!

This is GREAT news for everyone involved in the project; Not only Capcom themselves but also the art guys at Udon who were responsible for recreating all the game’s art (which was almost cancelled by Capcom on more than one occasion), the development team at Backbone Entertainment and, most importantly in my eyes, the soundtrack composers over at one of my personal favorite sites, OverClocked Remix (www.ocremix.org), who were responsible for the music in Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, which was entirely created by fans of the game.

It’s great to see a game like this, that was a labor of love through and through, do so well. Kudos to those who purchased the game and if you haven’t yet, go out and do so!
