SUPER Street Fighter IV

[Schwaltzvald]

So yeah... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwwpAEp6Q1Y&)

Just like the good old days (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Street_Fighter_IV)

This should be interesting (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdemwyTEPTE&)

Excited as hell about this. Finally a Taekwon Do martial artist in a Street Fighter game, and she looks to be pretty damned speedy. I'll probably be maining Juri once this thing is out. Of course I'll be torn between her and Ibuki if they decide to add her into the mix as well. I read somewhere that they'll be adding some kind of new Arab grappler character as well.

While I'm a bit miffed that they didn't get this to be DLC, I'm still glad they're making it anyway since it shows they haven't forgotten about fine-tuning and adding things that the big fans are going to love. I'm also pretty excited that they're still trying to make sure it's not a crazy $60 release and that there'll be some kind of bonus for people who keep their original copy of Street Fighter 4.

An online lobby system? Yes please. Multiple Ultras for all characters, balancing the fuck out of Sagat, fixing that priority bullshit on 'Gief's and Abel's throws? Please? New stages? Sure, why not?

Spring 2010 can't come fast enough!

Hn. As much as I'd love to see my beloved 3rd Strike characters (Ibuki and Makoto) in SF4, I'm apprehensive about how much they'll be changed. Like, what's the point in playing Makoto if they nerf karakusa or if she doesn't have Abare to Sanami? :(

HMMMM

I take it you're still burned by what happened to Fei-Long or am I thinking of some one else..?

That's zircon who loves the WATAAAAHHHH, not DS. Same sorts of reservations I'd imagine though.

SF3 characters being added would ROCK, in any case. Add in Makoto, Ibuki, and Yun and I will be happy. Let's keep Final Fight characters in the Alpha series, as much as I'd like to have Guy ingame.

[DJ Mighty]

i am very excited about this, i havent played in a month or 2, time for me to get back into it. I know what ill be doing after my soccer game tonight

[LuketheXjesse]

Aw hell yeah. This is gonna kick ass.

[Schwaltzvald]

Ah shame there's no word on Dudley, but Juri is certainly refreshing.

[Liontamer]

T. Hawk! Definitely looking forward to this one.

[Bleck]

man I sure do love buying games over and over

[Arek the Absolute]

man I sure do love buying games over and over

seriously feh

[Necrotic]

especially since I was pretty unsatisfied with SF4... glad to hear they're supposedly fixing online and balance (but adding 8 new characters? good luck "balancing")

glad i didn't pay for it the first time, but I'll probably buy this

[Brushfire]

man I sure do love buying games over and over

Fo Shizzle.

Your a man after my own heart Jude.

[Dyne]

I was apprehensive at first, but now that I've heard the why and how, and have seen the interview with the producer, I'm sold on it. I'm looking forward to this game, and I can't wait to hear about the other characters that will be in the game.

[Flare4War]

man I sure do love buying games over and over

Yeah. It looks exciting but why didn't they just do this in the first place. Kinda feels like they're trying to squeeze undue money out of the fans.

[Bleck]

basically if they add 8 characters and none of those 8 characters are Makoto I will turn into super saiyan 3 broly and blow up the world

[DarkeSword]

I take it you're still burned by what happened to Fei-Long or am I thinking of some one else..?
I don't care that much about SF2 characters.

[Bleck]

while I enjoy T. Hawk I'm going to take DarkeSword's side and say that this update is only a good thing because of the possibility of SF3 characters

[zircon]

Why? SF3's characters didn't seem particularly inspired to me. T.Hawk and Dee-Jay are pretty awesome designs. How often do you see a Caribbean fighter based on rhythm with a huge smile on his face at all times? His moves fit his character perfectly and he plays well too. Whereas SF3 had Remy (Guile ripoff), Hugo (big grappler guy, at least T.Hawk had some other nifty moves and splashes), various "fast ninja types" (Fei Long is fast, but has way more style) etc. I liked Makoto, admittedly, but even she could be stupidly overpowered with 100% combos.

[Crump(Axem Green)]

I'm now glad that I have joined these forums to see news of a super street fighter 4. Lost touch of sf4 due to comp. tf2. Hopefully this will be worth it

[dsx100]

If they include Alex, then it is a definate buy for me. I also wonder what they mean by budget price. $29.99 sounds reasonable to me.

[linkspast]

This is good news for me seeing how I did not buy this one, Ill just get the added features, and pay less...

Lol. Good read and cool images.

I laughed. Hard.

[Sindra]

To be honest....it's not like they didn't do this with Mortal Kombat a shit-ton of times. Still had me buying the newer games for the new characters and tweaks, but I'd usually wait until the price dropped below the release pricing.

[Malaki-LEGEND.sys]

I have one complaint!

...I don't like the font they used for the word "Super"...

:-P

(No but seriously it doesn't mesh very well at all)

Also I think they'd probably release the game at a $29.99 to a $39.99 price point with the former being less likely. That seems to be what companies translate as budget these days. I dunno.

I DO know that I clocked in about 60 hours of Street Fighter IV in February ALONE, so I'm quite looking forward to my eventual Super Street Fighter IV Turbo: Hyper Fighting Edition thankyouverymuch.

[NNY]

Street Fighter has always been Capcom's flagship re-released a million times title. I can't wait for this. The mystery thing for owners of Street Fighter IV intrigues me. I just hope I can afford a TE stick by then.

There have been a ton of Street Fighter 2 games...

I'm holding out for 'you get the game for free'

Don't recall this having been posted yet, so here:

http://www.famitsu.com/game/news/1227966_1124.html

Famitsu interview with Yoshinori Ono about SSFIV. This is where the confirmation about Dee Jay making it in came from, if you were wondering. Nice pictures of all three, including a single promo shot and 18 pics of the character in action, just like they did for the originals when SFIV info was first dropping.

There's also some other interesting bits and pieces in this interview, like how Ono considers Juri's playstyle to be something of a Feilong-like Viper, how she was actually added to the game due to Korean fan petitions who complained that Tekken and KoF had Korean characters but Street Fighter still doesn't, how the Ultra Combo system will see a few changes, and why they skipped Dash/Championship Mode and Turbo for the naming and went straight to Super (mainly because Dash was just a rebalance fix and Turbo was just a speed fix; they wanted to give that same "loads of new content" mentality Super SFII had with its addition of new characters).

[Raziellink]

Yeah, i couldn't ready any of that. I just enjoyed the pretty pictures.

It always came off as weird to me that there wasn't a TKD fighter in Street Fighter while it is an Olympic Sport, and many other fighting games have encorperated the sport for years. I'm pretty happy SF finally has one, and although i like the character, i just wished it was a guy. ;)

[I-n-j-i-n]

Nice to see they didn't patronize too much or dumb down or archetype TKD when making Juri a totally evil character.

[Schwaltzvald]

Okay something new came out, though maybe most of you have seen them already,

Video of NEW and old ultra moves in SSF4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmxJ1vwgi6I)

Zangiefs to me was hilarious. :lol:

Edit* No sign of Makoto though...

[The Derrit]

very well put together trailer, I love it.

[Broken]

Haha, awesome find! Fei-long's second ultra is such win! Alternate costumes look amazing as well.

[Archaon]

I read somewhere that they'll be adding some kind of new Arab grappler character as well.

Oh no.

Could it be?

I'M DE HEEROOOOOOOOOOOO


EDIT: Actually, now that I think about it, Darun Mister from the EX series might fit the bill there. However, to the best of my knowledge, those characters were created by Arika and Capcom doesn't have the rights to them. If they do, I say to hell with Darun; bring back Garuda. And SKULLOMANIAAAAAA.

[zircon]

Haha, yeah, Fei has always had the most style (IMO.) No fireballs, no fancy energy stuff, no teleports, no limb extensions, just punches and kicks. Well, flaming kicks. I just hope the ultra is as useful as it is cool-looking.

[Broken]

Oh no.

Could it be?

Oh, man I miss my ex characters. Freaking Cracker Jack and his baseball bat of justice. I agree with you about bringing back Skullo. I'm just imagining how amazing he would look rendered in hd. I think he would fit in fairly well with the rest of the cast, too.
