Street Ultra Fighter IV Announced - Super Aggrivated Emo

[Fignuts]

God forbid someone doesn't get into sf 4.

[Kalyx triaD]

You're all losers.

[Fignuts]

You didn't like COD 4. Blow me.

[Funky Fly]

Fuck me. Cody? Really? Lame. Plus, originally he was supposed to be Joe from SF1, but they changed him last minute. I'd actually prefer Eagle From SF1/Capcom vs SNK 2.

[Fignuts]

Dude it was from gamefaqs.

That post has zero credibility.

[Fignuts]

There has been a rumor floating around that Dudley is one of the characters, but it's still just a rumor.

[Funky Fly]

That would be fucking awesome tho.

[Fignuts]

I would be kind of upset that dudley was in, instead of Alex/Yun&Yang/Oro/Elena

[Drakul]

Dude it was from gamefaqs.

That post has zero credibility.

Ign have a similair list.

T.Hawk makes a welcome return and he's joined by debutant Juri, an employee of Shadoloo. While these are the only two fighters who feature in the leak, expect more to be revealed once the announcement is official. Strong candidates for inclusion include Street Fighter III's Makoto, Ibuki and Dudley, with Final Fight's Cody and Guy also rumoured to star.

http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/102/1028783p1.html

I wouldn't say it's impossible for the GameFAQS post to be correct. Yes, it's unlikely but with IGN saying certain character which are on the list could be in, it could happen.
It's just rumours for now and as long as people remember that, there is no harm in speculating.

[Khuntry]

I would be kind of upset that dudley was in, instead of Alex/Yun&Yang/Oro/Elena

Dudley >>>>>> the rest of those chumps.

[Kalyx triaD]

If that list was legit I'd be happy. None of the additions were 'my' characters but I do have my eye on Juri. Other than that, more the merrier.

If only Karin was in, though...

[Drakul]

There is always DLC and/or the next version of SFIV.

[Kalyx triaD]

This is the last version, I'm betting.

[redoneja]

Just dusted this off and put it in the ol PS3 yesterday when some of my boys came down to visit. I forgot how fun this game was. I am insanely bad though. Like, I'm really good within the circle of people I'm playing, but I'm confident anyone online would murder me. Been tearing it as Zangief, Sakura, and Dhalsim.

[Kalyx triaD]

Stick with Sakura. She's awesome.

[redoneja]

Yea I'm really liking her, Zangief, and Dhalsim, depending who I use them against. I am absolutely terrible with charge based fighters. I have absolutely no idea how to pull off a super or an ultra with a charge based guy. Not that those are the main focus of my game, but it would be nice to do it if I needed to.

[Kalyx triaD]

Most matches end without Supers so you're good.

[Drakul]

After being defeated in the SFIV Tournement, I started playing the game again. I know it would make more sense to play it while I was still in the tournement but it's just the way it worked out.
Anyway, I've been playing as Fei Long and Cammy a little bit and I think I'm finally getting used to Fei Long. I've got Cammys Cannon Spike and her other "Cannon" move which I forget the name of. It used to be Cannon Drill but they changed it for some reason. I can't remember her other move. Where she rolls through the air and then hurricanranas the opponent.

I had a pretty awesome ranked match as Zangief (as usual) against a Sagat. The guy didn't spam at all and he managed to pull the best out of me. Both rounds where pretty close. I won Round 1 when he crouched, waiting for me to come closer. I walked towards him, he went for a Tiger Uppercut. I stepped back, he missed and I got the round with Zangiefs Ultra.
I won round 2 when he had me cornered, I managed to bat him away, he attempts Tiger Destruction as I charge a Focus Attack and let it go just before he makes contact, Knocking him out. It may not sound "epic" but the actual fight was pretty intense. Winning that match also got me my " Win 10 Ranked Matches in a Row" achievement. 50G

[Kalyx triaD]

Behold the glory of competition.

[Fignuts]

BEHOLD THE GLORY OF MY COCK

[Kalyx triaD]

My Sakura can kick your _______'s ass.

[Funky Fly]

I am so ridiculously in a slump, it's amazing. Have not won a fight the last 3 times I played. What the fuck?

[Kalyx triaD]

For Gouken's sake, Mackem, put Super in front of the thread title. It's killing here!

March 23, 2010

[Drakul]

That date sounds a little close to the RDR 'likely' release date. I don't think I could spare the cash for both SSFIV and RDR. Unless someone actually employs me before then. Then I could probably pick them both up.
If I had to chose one, it would be RDR.

Anyway, is there any idea when another character will be revealed? Are they doing a reveal monthly or just whenever they feel like it? If there is only 8 new characters, they can reveal a new one each month leading up to release. I'm hoping/thinking we could actually get 10 new characters. I also want to know what bonus rounds we'll see. I'm sure we'll get the car one and I'm interested in seeing the new intro/endings for each characters.

I was playing through arcade mode with...I think Fei Long and his ending showed him talking to Seth and then Seth gets a ninja spike thing thrown at his back out of nowhere. It wasn't explained who threw it. Maybe it relates to Juri?

Also, pointless info on the making of Abels characters:

http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/kotaku/2009/10/streetfighter.jpg
Try and figure out which new character in Street Fighter IV started off as an effeminate little French boy, if you're Abel.

There I go, giving away the punch line. Yes, Street Fighter IV's muscle-bound French fighter Abel might have wound up a small boy with pigtails, according to the game's battle planner Taisaku Okada, who commented on the original design in a post on the Japanese SFIV website. As translated by Andriasang.com:

"With Abel, we wanted to make someone representative of 'the weak can beat the strong,' and so he was originally a small judo character who could be mistaken for a girl."

I would have preferred the smaller look to the one Capcom eventually went with, but then I've always been fond of smaller characters kicking the crap out of bigger ones.

Along with the more feminine Abel, the developer post also takes a look at the difficulties of maintaining character appearance in the newer game, Honda's skeletal structure, and raging staff fights over Street Fighter IV's art direction. It's all in Japanese, so make sure to bring along your closest squiggly-reading friend.

I prefer what they eventually went for with Abel. This character looks ok, I guess, but maybe it's better used as a whole other character. A few people, in the comments, are pointing out that it's clearly a little girl and are saying the Japanese don't seem to understand how adrogyny works.

It looks more like concept art for Juri, to me.

Super Street Fighter IV wasn't always super.

Initially, franchise producer Yoshinori Ono thought the next iteration of Street Fighter, landing just a year after the release of Street Fighter IV, should get a new number. Maybe not five, but perhaps 4.9.

But Capcom thought that might be too confusing and instead slapped the game with a Super, leap-frogging over Championship and Hyper Fighting editions, said Capcom Community Manager Seth Killian.

While the new game, due out early next year, will include a host of back-end improvements, about eight new characters, new stages, moves and gameplay modes, Capcom is still debating whether to sell the game for the traditional price of console titles or a lower price, Killian said.

Like its inevitable price, the changes and upgrades brought with Super Street Fighter IV are very fan driven.

"This is the most fan-responsive game in Capcom's history," Killian said.

Changes to the game will include balancing tweaks, but at least one famously irritating character won't be made easier to take on, he'll be made harder.

"Seth will be even cheaper and more irritating," Killian said.

And end-boss Seth won't be the only one to get some tweaks, some of the existing characters will get new moves. Killian mentioned Ken as one character who will have something new in Super, though he said it wouldn't be as radical as introducing new techniques like parries.

While Killian wouldn't go into the details of the new online modes that will be introduced with Super Street Fighter IV, he did say that Capcom is very aware of the complaint gamers have about not being able to hang-out in online rooms watching people play one another online.

"That is one of the things we will try to address," he said.

Super will also include a new set of stories for each of the characters, both the original 25 and the eight new characters. This time round the animation will not be done by Studio 4°C, he said.

Capcom declined to let me play the game, though I was able to watch Killian play and he showed off some of the signature moves of the new characters, including returning fighter T. Hawk.

From what I saw the character's animation, including their focus attacks, blended nicely with the existing game's aesthetic.


http://kotaku.com/5385868/capcom-seth-will-be-cheaper-in-super-street-fighter-iv

Nothing new but Seth will be cheaper. I'm wondering how everyone will react to that.

BTW, Championship Mode in SFIV is more or less dead. Been trying to get a match in there all week pretty regularly and only managed to get 2 or 3. A lot of the time it comes up saying there is no one there.

[Kalyx triaD]

I don't care if Seth is cheaper, I'll easy mode his ass for the end cutscenes. Good thing we don't need to unlock any characters this time.

And Ryu's gay.

Heeeeyy...... you:wave:

[Kalyx triaD]

I'll beat Ryu's ass. Matter fact, every game Ryu's in I will a point to shut his ass down.

[Funky Fly]

Jesus, that fucking video. :eek:

Hate fighting skilled Ryus.

[Khuntry]

I'll beat Ryu's ass. Matter fact, every game Ryu's in I will a point to shut his ass down.
Ha!

[DaveBrawl]

Ok Kalyx like we were talking about last week I broke down and bought this last night for $17 (including shipping) off Amazon. I put my faith in you on this one. :lol:

[Kalyx triaD]

That's a damn fine 17$ spent, I promise.

[DaveBrawl]

Until I fight my first round with Vega and get my face kicked in.

I was surprised at the price though, you were spot on about it coming down to about as low as as recent 360/PS3 game seems to get.

[Kalyx triaD]

People who play fighting expecting to win aren't realistic about their competition. You have to accept loses.

[DaveBrawl]

Oh I fully expect it, I haven't played a Street Fighter game since the mid 90s and even then I wasn't very good. :lol:

[Kalyx triaD]

Then this is a good time to get into the engine. Check out the trials and challenges, they'll get you versed in some mechanics. And you should be ranked against players of your level.

[DaveBrawl]

Cool, thanks.

[DaveBrawl]

Ok Kalyx I have two questions. What would be a good character for me to get into using? I'm experimenting with them all, but I'll lay out my play style so hopefully you can give me some direction. Is Fei Long unlockable in this? He's listed in the credits so I figure maybe he would be a good choice if he's in it.

Ok this should be an indicator of my current level of play. The game finally came in the Wednesday night and I gave it a play through with Zangief. On easiest mode it took me 2 or 3 times to beat Abel to get to the boss and another 4-5 times to beat Seth. Haven't had a chance to play since then so I haven't got a lock on anyone yet.

I love Vega as a character but I hate charge moves (never have been able to use them consistantly or with any kind of success) and I likely need someone with good defense right now so that kind of rules him out. Zangief's moves mostly require the full stick rotation which most times ends up with me jumping and getting juggled straight to a big loss of energy.

I eventually gave up on moves with Zangief and just started using strikes, which barely got me by Chung Li :lol:. So outside of Ryu and Ken, who it seems everybody use, who do you think a good starting point would be? Sagat? When I was little I always imagined he was the cheap fighter to use because he looked like he was so good that it would be too easy to win with him. Not really at that point anymore, I'll take any easy win I can get, but that was probably just perception anyway. I haven't tried him out yet, though because like I said earlier I haven't given anyone outside of Zangief much play time.

- I know it's a cliche choice but you really should start with Ryu/Ken. They have basic standards and specials that will help you learn the engine of the game before you learn the gimmick of a specific character. Basically you need to learn Street Fighter 4 before you learn Vega or somebody. However, if you like Vega, stick with him and learn his ass. Playing as characters you like is better than choosing by tiers (gay).

- Charge characters are more complicated than motions. But the idea is the charge characters have better standard attacks than motion characters. Do Vega's standing Roundhouse(Fierce Kick) and you'll see it's actually a free anti-air attack. His Fierce Punch also has great range and his backflips (PPP, KKK) dodge everything.

- BUT as far as charge moves go, and even 360 motions, you must learn buffering. Buffering commands is inputing the motion of a command during other actions. You need to charge back or down with Vega, right? I'm betting you catch yourself crouching or walking backward during a fight, limiting your movement while you ready a move. It doesn't have to be like this. When Vega is jumping (forward or backward) or doing an attack, why not hold back or down while it happens? When the attack is over the charge is done and you just hit forward/up+button and it will seen like you didn't have to limit your movement for a charge. When holding down for his leap attacks, notice his Sweep slides, use it to move forward while charging down. OR just arbitrarily press fierce punch a few times to throw off your opponent while you ready a leap attack. The key for charge characters is to stay busy while charging. All this requires you getting used to buffring commands. With 'Gief, you can do a 360 spin while executing certain attacks (namely the glowing hand).

[DaveBrawl]

Thanks, I'm gonna try that.

Some new info on SSFIV

http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/9/2009/11/cardestruction.jpg

The upcoming SSFIV is bringing back the Street Fighter bonus stages of yore: car destruction.
The latest issue of Famitsu confirms the car wrecking bonus stages in Super Street Fighter IV. There's also a barrel bonus stage, too.

Other details about the game include info about online play:

• Team Battle is from 2-on-2 up to 4-on-4.
• Replay Channel allows players to watch match, well, replays.
• Endless Battle allows up to 8 players to compete in a knock-out tournament.

There are plans to include a "Tournament Mode" as an additional download.

Sounds good. Wonder what else will be revealed. I'm still waiting on character reveals, myself.
On the subject of new characters, I read an article that said Juri was going to be an ice skater at one point, then they considered making her an old woman and even a "chubby girl" until they eventually settled on what we have now. Also, they increased her bust size from 73cm/30 inches to 83cm/33 inches. They want her to come across as "bad and erotic".

[Kalyx triaD]

This game will fucking own me. TPWW's gonna have a sequel tourny. Next time I co-host.

[Drakul]

We had a replay channel before as a download but it was useless. It would be cool if we could save a replay of any fight we had and send the replay to friends.
That way, if we had another tourny, we could just show the actual fight rather than just typing the details.

With 2 on 2, do you think we could have online tag matches? A tag tourny would be cool.

[Kalyx triaD]

I doubt there will be tag, doesn't fit the engine. Most likely we're looking at team elimination, which is fine by me.

[Funky Fly]

Yeah, tag system works better in 3d engines, IMO.

[RoXer]

So, lobby is confirmed?

[Kalyx triaD]

[Drakul]

Was just going to post that video. Don't suppose anyone can read Japanese, can they?

[Kalyx triaD]

I think the points are pretty clear. We have a Spectator Mode, I hope this isn't what they meant by having a lobby. A Replay Theater. What appears to be a Survival Mode against live players. And Bonus Stages.

[Drakul]

Yeah but I thought maybe there is some smaller details in the text like if we can save a reply of any match or something.
At 1:00 the video shows "Channel Select". What is it? It has 10 animated panels.

[Kalyx triaD]

Maybe that's the replay feature. Not too sure, though.

[Drakul]

I thought that at first but they are all animated from weird angles. The one on the bottom left is a close up of stars, like a rating system. Maybe it's just a movie player like in SFIV to view trailers and the intro.

[Drakul]

The official ssf4 website has been updated with a new trailer showcasing the new recently announced online modes and bonus stages:

(They posted the trailer here but it's already in this thread. - Drakul)

In addition, Nakky’s blog has also been updated with information about the new modes. And luckily for us adrisang did the translation of the blog post.

From andriasang.com: “As hinted at for months now, bonus rounds are back for Super Street Fighter IV. The system section of the official site contains a look at car and barrel bonus rounds, both of which should be familiar from older SF titles.

The page confirms that the bonus stages can be played not just in the game’s Arcade Mode, but in Challenge Mode as well. Once you’ve cleared a bonus stage in arcade mode, you’ll be able to select it in Challenge Mode (you’ll also be able to skip the bonus stage in future play sessions).

http://www.andriasang.com/blog/2009/11/06/super_sfiv_modes/2132397380.jpg

http://www.andriasang.com/blog/2009/11/06/super_sfiv_modes/2132397381.jpg

Also getting a full introduction at the site are the game’s new network features. The network section introduces the following:

Endless Battle

An endless online tournament playable by up to eight. The loser of each fight goes to the end of the line and waits for another chance to fight. Players who aren’t fighting can watch the fight and take part in voice chat. This mode continues as long as players are online. You’re free to switch characters during the course of play.

Team Battle

Team battle supports up to eight players, with two teams ranging from 1 to 7 players on each team. That’s right, you can have seven players gang up on a single super World Warrior. You can also set the game to manually create your teams, using player points to create two equal sides. Once you’ve created a team, you can choose to manually set the order in which your members participate, or you can have the game choose for you. As with the Endless Battle Mode, players who aren’t fighting can watch the current fight.

http://www.andriasang.com/blog/2009/11/06/super_sfiv_modes/2132397383.jpg

Replay Channel

This mode lets you “gather” and “view” replay data. The replays are viewed in streaming form through “channels,” which can be viewed simultaneously by other players. Those viewing the same channel can engage in voice chat.

The replay channels are split up into themes, examples being a channel consisting of boss characters and one with newcomer fighters.

Replays that you happen to like can be added to your My List. Replays on this list can be viewed and edited (I’m not sure about the extents of the editing). When viewing your My List, you don’t get sthe communication aspects of this mode — it’s just your own personal channel.

Tournament Mode

Not all the content will ship on the Super Street Fighter IV disc. Capcom plans on offering a Tournament Mode via download following release. This mode promises the following features:

•Tournament for up to eight players
•Players can watch the matches of others
•Voice chat compatible (for up to 9 players — including the person who arranges the tournament)
•Can save replays, even for fights that you watch
•You can give special titles to winners
•The tournament progression and results have been made visual. (I’m not sure what this means exactly.)

The official website was also updated by new portraits of Chun-li and Cammy as well as voice clips of the characters who have a protrait on the official website.

I guess that answered my question about the text in the trailer and other info from the blog. I'm liking this sudden release of information. Endless battle sound good to me.
I guess the channel thing is for replays. I think "editing" will be altering the camera angle and stuff.

[Emperor Smeat]

Is this still set for $40 or Capcom changed the price ?

[Drakul]

Yeah, still $40 as far as I know. Not sure how much it will be for those of us in the UK though.

[Funky Fly]

Probably gonna be $50 - $60 here in Canada.

[Emperor Smeat]

Good, hopefully they don't do like what Bungie did to Halo ODST and change it from $40 to $60 before it got released.

[Funky Fly]

Good, hopefully they don't do like what Bungie did to Halo ODST and change it from $40 to $60 before it got released.

Keep in mind that it went from DLC chapter to full on game, tho.

[Emperor Smeat]

Keep in mind that it went from DLC chapter to full on game, tho.

I thought it was always thought to be on the disc but as an "expansion pack" deal with just the Halo 3 multiplayer being the DLC type of the game.

If you meant Super SFIV then yeah that was their goal and then they just kept adding stuff and tweaks. Wouldn't be completely surprised if Capcom goes to $60 for this game based on pricing of DLC in their other games.

[Kalyx triaD]

Team Battle, ftw.

http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/kotaku/2009/11/chunli.jpg
An update to the official Japanese Super Street Fighter IV blog teases a new character reveal for Super Street Fighter IV next week. Who could possibly be the source of so much Chun-Li pain?

Capcom US posted a link to the Japanese site today with the headline "New Super Street Fighter IV Art and... A New Challenger?", leading us to believe that's exactly what Nakky is talking about. According to a translation of the post by Azrael from the Shoryuken forums, the post teases big news that will also be appearing in next week's issue of Japanese video game publication Famitsu, with a promotional video going up on the Capcom site around the same time.

Yes, it's an announcement of an announcement, but at least we have a nice picture to dissect between now and next week.


So a returning character or a new character? "New Challanger" could mean either. Also, new stage. Looks to be New York.
Any ideas on who it could be if it's a returning character or do you think it'll be a brand new character?

Edit: Just saw a video showing Rolentos secret stage from SFA2 and it's a construction site in New York. Looks like we have Rolento on the way. Awesome if it is.

[Kalyx triaD]

Wow... Rolento.

Also, not liking this trend of 'announcements of announcements'.

[Drakul]

The time and energy used to announce an announcement couldnt be used to actually announce what they are announcing the announcement of. Everyones announcing anouncements now. Capcom with SSFIV, R* with RDR and Nintendo announcing they'll annnounce info about Zelda at E3.

As for Rolento, would it be a good thing or a bad thing if it is him? If it is him and that's his stage, maybe it also means character specific stages are back.

[Kalyx triaD]

I'd like Rolento, but Alpha has enough love. Where's 3rd Strike representation?

[Drakul]

I never played 3rd Strike and if I did, I don't remember. Maybe it is a 3rd Strike character. Looking at the 3rd Strike wikipedia to see if I know any of the characters (I've heard of most of them, it turns out.) and I see two characters have NYC stages. Sean and Alex. Could be one of them.
It's still likely Rolento, though.

[Funky Fly]

Fuck Rolento. I want some SF1 and SF3 appearances.

[Kalyx triaD]

Weren't the SF1 characters revamped/remixed in some way during the Alpha series?

[Funky Fly]

Eagle was redone for Capcom vs SNK 2. I wanna see more shit like that (first time reappearances).

Also, Joe from SF1 was supposed to be the criminal in Alpha 3, but they changed it to Cody from Final Fight at the last minute. Gay.

[Kalyx triaD]

I wanna see Ingrid make a 3D debut.

[Khuntry]

I wanna see Ingrid make a 3D debut.

That would a waste of a slot.

[Drakul]

3 characters revealed through Japanese magazine

Muay Thai fighter Adon from Street Fighter Alpha and Final Fight character Cody and Guy are the latest characters announced for SSFIV. Cody is decked out in his Street Fighter Alpha 3 prison garb.

Super Street Fighter IV is slated for spring 2010 on the PS3 and Xbox 360.

Source:http://kotaku.com/5411575/super-street-fighter-iv-getting-three-more-fighters

I've no idea if any of these guys are who the NYC Chun-Li image was going to reveal or not. At least one of them was very obvious given they appeared in a SFIV character intro.

[Fignuts]

So only two more characters left to reveal, and one is most likely a brand new character. Yeah, it looks like capcom hates sf 3 for some reason.

[Drakul]

I've read somewhere that Capcom said "at least 8" so there could maybe be more. Although Capcom said "around about 8" and then changed it to "at least 8" so I don't if Capcom is changing that or it's just whoever is reporting it.

Was SF3 popular? If it wasn't as popular as most SF games, that could be why they aren't including SF3 characters.

[Blitz]

GUY!!!!!!!! :love::love::love::love:

[Blitz]

Worth noting that so far that leaked list posted a couple pages back has been dead on. So don't be so sure about the lack of SF3 love.

[Fignuts]

Hopefully.

I've no idea if any of these guys are who the NYC Chun-Li image was going to reveal or not. At least one of them was very obvious given they appeared in a SFIV character intro.

It's has to be Cody in the Chun-Li picture since it appears his stage is similar to the one in the Chun-Li picture and in the picture of him using an uppercut, it gets cut off before the whole inky part is show. Looks like the rest of that inky part is in the Chun-Li picture.

[Drakul]

It may be Cody but the ink trail looks like its coming from a focus attack that goes in a downwards motion rather than an uppercut. Someone online said you can sae a statue of Mike Hagger in the background of the Chun-li picture so it's Metro City, not NY. So it's likely Guy or Cody's stage.

[Funky Fly]

Guy :y:
Cody :n:
Adon :|

Fuck Cody. Seriously.

[Funky Fly]

Not gonna lie tho: Dudley and Makoto = win. I'd have preferred Elena, Yun or Yang over Ibuki, but fuck it 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

Tis is all provided that list is true, tho.

[thecc]

I still want alex

[Khuntry]

I still want alex

I agree

[Khuntry]

really don't care for cody

[Super V]

Gay

[Funky Fly]

really don't care for cody

You and me both. Also, I actually meant to put :-\ and not :| for Adon. He's not bad, I just don't think he's all that suited to this shit. Sub him out for Yun and Yang and add some of the SF3 originals (ie. guys who aren't SF2 ripoffs like Remy) and we have some good shit going.

[Kalyx triaD]

Cody? Adon?

This does it... They actually do not like 3rd Strike. Do they find it a weak entry? Perhaps the fact that it dropped around the time fighters died gives it a bad 'aura' or something. Let's face it: Juri, T.Hawk, Dee Jay, Guy, Cody, Adon... That's about three characters left if any, and will they really be 3rd Strikers? I hope, but it doesn't seem likely anymore. I have read rumors, but I don't feel like putting up hope anymore.

In any case, SSF4 still looks like a definite buy. More characters mean more variety in comp, so let's have it.

[Blitz]

Christ, is anyone paying attention? Capcom never said "exactly 8 new characters". Could be more. Wait till everything is announced to begin bitching, at least.

[Super V]

I doubt if they're going to even add 8. This is Capcom we're talking about.

[Khuntry]

If that's how its gonna be i want the rest to be new characters

[Kalyx triaD]

It would seem we're all a bit underwhelmed by the latest Alpha entries. Meanwhile, who fucking knew Cody and Adon had so many fans at SRK (typical). At the very least we have great new modes and all characters unlocked at launch. SF4 is still a great game. And who knows... we might come to like the new/old challengers. I didn't think Sakura would nearly be my main a year ago.

Count it up, what I said has more than 8. Settle down, yourself, Blitzkrieg.

[Blitz]

Was responding more to Kalyx and Fig.

Cody I could take or leave. Guy I wanted. Adon looks like he could have be fun to play.

[Funky Fly]

Seriously, tho: Dudley, Makoto, Yun, Yang, Elena, Alex... any of them would be phenomenal additions.

[Drakul]

The list posted a while ago has been accurate so far, as Blitz said. So we should be getting 3rd Strike characters soon.

They said 8-ish new characters meaning maybe a little more or a little less. Plus I'm not sure if that 8 included T.Hawk, Dee Jay and Juri. Didn't they say there would be about 8ish more fighters after revealing T.Hawk etc?.

I don't care about Guy or Cody but Adon is alright.

[Blitz]

Seriously, tho: Dudley, Makoto, Yun, Yang, Elena, Alex... any of them would be phenomenal additions.
Dudley I wouldn't mind. Makoto never did much for me. I'd love Elena, Yun/Yang or Alex.

[Funky Fly]

All those fucking El Fuerte spammers are gonna be fucked with Guy around.

[Super V]

:roll:

[Funky Fly]

Are you one of them, then? :mad: Can't stand those fucks.

[Funky Fly]

I mean, let's be serious: it takes pretty good timing to keep someone down once you have them in that loop, but fucking hell does it makes the game a lot less fun.

[Khuntry]

I hear rumors that Ibuki might be included... gonna look into it.

[Fignuts]

Makoto, Ibuki, and Dudley is the rumor.

[Funky Fly]

Pretty good set, if it's true. And while I've got no beef with Ibuki going in, I believe I've already stated which character's I'd like to see make the cut.

[Super V]

I mean, let's be serious: it takes pretty good timing to keep someone down once you have them in that loop, but fucking hell does it makes the game a lot less fun.
I do main El Fuerte but I don't use that loop beyond 3-5 hits followed by a Tostada Press or to be fancy the Gordita Sabat into El Ferte Dynamite. Damage scaling however does balance out the issue.

Taken from the Japanese Blog: "Guy blocking a kunai thrown from someone with his saving attack. But now, in SSFIV there are no characters who throw kunai's. That means....?!"

Also, in Fei Longs SFIV ending, Seth gets one of those weapons thrown into his back from an unseen character. Likely Ibuki.

Cool, looks like she'll be included. Hopefully Dudley as well.

... I'll be watching you

[Kalyx triaD]

I toyed with Ibuki in 3rd Strike years ago. Might give it another go this time in this engine. Makoto should be interesting with the Saving Attack system.

[Funky Fly]

Fucking hate Cody so much.

[Kalyx triaD]

I'd have Karin over Cody easily.

[Funky Fly]

Like I said, he was supposed to be Joe from SF1, but they were like let's make him Cody. Then we got Final Fight Streetwise. :mad:

[Khuntry]

You know, Cody's not so bad...

[Kalyx triaD]

I never knew anyone who played him seriously.

[Funky Fly]

You know, Cody's not so bad...

If we were in a room talking about this in person, this would be the point where I foam at the mouth and try to bite your face off.

[Super V]

I ruled Alpha 3 wit this guy. Plus he's got a more interesting storyline than anyone in the game period. Fallen hero.

[Funky Fly]

But it led to Final Fight Streetwise. It was so not worth destroying that franchise for Cody in Alpha 3.

[Khuntry]

Naah..

[Kalyx triaD]

I never played FF Streetwise. I mean... could it be worse than the old game? Really?

[Super V]

It was good. I mean it wasn't bad anyway. My theory is either:

A) It deviated too far from the more light hearted, colorful original.

or

B) It was American.

Personally, I enjoyed the game.

[Fignuts]

There is nothing more hilarious than busting out an ultra on someone who doesn't know they exist. Especialy when there are several other people who don't know they exist, watching it.

[Kalyx triaD]

Beating on casuals, Fignuts? You're mean.

[Fignuts]

I am a casual.

[Kalyx triaD]

Casuals don't do ultras, you're a fighter.

[Fignuts]

They tell you how do them in the manual. It is not some trade secret known to hardcore gamers.

[Kalyx triaD]

Being a 'core gamer has little to do with skill, it's all about FIGHTING SPIRIT.

Street Fighter Alpha 2 is dropping on Wii's XBLA equivalent, WiiWare.

I demand a port of SFA Anthology for XBLA in retaliation.

[Emperor Smeat]

It's going to end up being the SNES version of the game since Virtual Console doesn't contain any Saturn or PS1 versions of games.

[Kalyx triaD]

Oh. Oh.

Eww... I had the SNES version but... Eww... You think they'd fit the arcade version in there at least. Also, we know it wouldn't be Alpha 2 Gold. That's almost a slap in the face for Wii owners (they do have CvT though).

[G]

Well if it is coming to WiiWare, then it will not be a port. WiiWare is for original games and Virtual Console is for the roms.

[Kalyx triaD]

Perhaps the source got it wrong.

[G]

Virtual Console

Street Fighter Alpha 2 (SNES, 1 - 2 players, 800 Wii Points): Back when the Saturn and the PlayStation were the new hotness on the console scene, the SNES was beginning to conclude its time on store shelves -- but that didn't stop it from getting its own version of Street Fighter Alpha 2. While the best way to play this game was undoubtedly on Sega and Sony's consoles, the SNES port actually isn't that bad.

[Kalyx triaD]

Eww.

[Drakul]

Some new screens showing new stages. I can't find the actual screens so this short video will have to do.

[Khuntry]

Might we see Elena?? Don't know anyone else who has a stage in Africa..

[Kalyx triaD]

That's what I was thinking.

[Drakul]

Dhalsim seems to have his own stage so maybe character specific stages are back, at least for a few characters so Elena could be there. I've never played as her so it's as good as a brand new character to me if she is in.

[Drakul]

5 new stages revealed. One of the new stages could be considered a spoiler, in my opinion.

I see Hugo in the last screenshot. I'm hoping the S.I.N lab has new awesome music to suit it's new look.
I never knew until recently but apparantly SSFIV's story takes places right after SFIV and isn't just a redo of SFIV's story.

[dablackguy]

I have a feeling we're getting Evil Ryu

[Drakul]

I don't think we will unless they do DLC, which I'm pretty sure I heard they weren't.
The character select screen was shown on a Famistu stream showing off the game and there aren't spots for Evil Ryu.

http://i46.tinypic.com/2vkiaeo.jpg

http://i47.tinypic.com/snmb1j.jpg
The slot under Sakura on the far right is probably another new character, Hakan. The other 3 slots are probably for the SF3 characters which are rumoured to be Dudley, Ibuki and Makoto.

[Kalyx triaD]

10 minute gameplay footage from Famitsu. It's pretty low quality.

I skipped through most of it but still cool to see gameplay.

[Kalyx triaD]

Is that Platinum Games' Kamiya playing with them?

Ibuki (3rdS)

What! Are you sure?

[Drakul]

They are all on the character list that leaked a while ago. The list leaked before the game was announced and listed T.Hawk, Dee Jay, Adon, Cody, Guy and even Juri. The only others on the list where Hakan, Dudley, Ibuki and Makoto. The same list mentioned bonus stages, lobbies & new ultras which are in to so it's pretty much a sure thing.

The new character select screen has just enough spaces for the final four, as you can see in my post above.

Between the speculation, the leak, the numbers matching up, and Capcom being aware that 3rd Strikers are certainly in high demand - the final four characters seem correct. I once thought Capcom simply cared less but during promotion of the game Capcom Unity and Ono-san made many references to how they follow the fans musings. It would silly of them to address several of SF4's issues that the fans voiced and not hear about how 3rdS was under represented.

At the very least Ibuki seems likely with that dagger showing up in those pics, there's only so much required for inductive reasoning. The last four names will certainly be the characters.

[Khuntry]

This game will own lives then

[Kalyx triaD]

This will open up some interesting match-ups. It's a nice big character list now, online matches will be interesting. Now we need to know about the tweeks and rebalances.

[Drakul]

Edit: The story has vanished now so it could be it was found to be a lie afterall. Then again, the original list of leaked characters vanished to and that's been accurate so far.

Edit No.2 : Yeah, this turned out to be fake.

Some interesting (and big) news has come up. It's not 100% confirmed as being true but here it is anyway

Keep in mind that this is not 100% confirmed and somewhat speculative, but a lot of new information is popping up over the past couple hours so I feel I should post it up just based on what I've heard at this point.

This was first spotted over at NeoGAF thanks to Dizzy-4U, mentioning that there is some new Super Street Fighter 4 information in the newest issue of Famitsu! All the Street Fighter 3 characters that were rumored are mentioned, along side rumored Hakan, but it looks like there is one more character to be revealed beyond that!

いぶき = Ibuki
ダッドリー= Dudley
まこと= Makoto
シャドウ= ?
ハカン = Hakan

They say that it is a "..new character named Shadow who is a Sonic Boom user". So that is a pretty big indication that a variation of Charlie/Nash could be another returning character to Super Street Fighter 4! Shadow was his alias in some older Street Fighter games such as Marvel Super Heros vs. Street Fighter.

This is a Google translation of what was posted of the Famitsu scans over at Wii @ Everyday - the original source of all this:

Super Street Fighter IV
4月1日 3980円 April 1 ¥ 3980
いぶき、ダッドリー、まこと、シャドウ、ハカン Ibuki, Dudley, Makoto, shadows, Hakan
シャドウはソニックブームを使う Shadow uses a sonic boom
ハカンはまんまダラン Hakan Manma Darran

Wow! What a turn of events - one more character on top of all the others that have been rumored up until now.

The article also mentioned an April 1st release date which some of you mind find a little suspicious. After looking into this, April 1st 2010 is a Thursday in Japan and that's when games come out there apparently. Also, they don't celebrate April Fools day in Japan as far as I know.

I'll keep updating as more information on this surfaces.

Source (http://iplaywinner.com/news/2009/12/21/super-street-fighter-4-ibuki-makoto-dudley-and-hakan-in-newe.html). I'm not so sure if I believe this or not. After seeing the character select screen, where would he go? Unless he'd fill the slot that "Random select" fills currently or if the character boxes scrolled to reveal another row or something. You can never have too many character so I hope it's true.

[Drakul]

This will open up some interesting match-ups. It's a nice big character list now, online matches will be interesting. Now we need to know about the tweeks and rebalances.

I'm hoping we can organise at least one team battle with a bunch of the guys from the SFIV tournement. Use our finishing positions to maybe make teams of even skill.

[Super V]

You see Online Vs. Ryu mode changing?

[Kalyx triaD]

I fought more Kens (and eventually Sagats) than Ryu online, but I see what you're saying. But I imagine trends like that will stop once the game is rebalanced and tweaked. There will always be 'favorites' though, no doubt about it.

[Drakul]

I'd imagin we'll see Juri a lot online for the first week or 2. I see mostly Ryu online these days but it doesn't really bother me. It bothers me when people employ certain tactics online that make the fight completely unfair. Dhalsim users constantly jumping backwards and doing his fierce punch or any match in general where the player employs one move or tactic they know Zangief is completely helpless against rather than just facing me head on. It's only really Dhalsim players, though. I know you have to keep your distance from Zangief but theres a limit.

I "main" Zangief and I feel I've gotten much better with him since our SF4 tournement but I still have a real hard time against Cammy. Shes my biggest weakness by far. If I block a Spiral Arrow, I get a Cannon Spike to the face. She seems to find a way around/out of any move I pull off. I just can't figure her out.

Anyway, look what someone found on the Capcom Japan site:
Print outs of stages we haven't seen before. They could just be concepts and not in the game or maybe DLC. They can't be in the game out of the box because we saw the stage select screen and I can't recall notice any of these there. I hope they are DLC if they aren't already in, somewhere.
http://www.capcom.co.jp/blog/sf4/img_upload/BOTSUAN.jpg
The stage in the center is the Scottish distillary at night.
The stage in the upper left looks like a castle. Maybe another Scottish stage or, perhaps an England stage.
The stage on the right looks like a train station platform with a train going by.
The stage at the bottom looks like a street, maybe Italy. Venice, maybe?
Edit: someone translated the blog. Those are stages that didn't make it in. Still, maybe DLC eventually?

[Drakul]

New, page stretching, scan:
http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/5321/1262752260883.jpg
Some cool things there. new alternate costumes, new utras. All looking very cool. You can see the completed character select screen in the lower left but it's too small to make out who is on it but that should mean the final character reveal is coming up.

Edit: New info. It's a fairly long article to copy/paste so I'll just link to it here (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=230669). It basically tells us how the new Ultras will work. We select one of the two available Ultras before the match with the idea being it will change the way the player decides to play that match.

It also tells us how Juri plays:
Juri is just a Dragon Punch and an Air Throw away from being a boss-level monster. She has an incredible variety of options in any given situation and with her simple motions and links even lengthy combos emerge easily. Even without messing with Focus Attack Dash Cancels the results of her basic combos are impressive and she's powerful even in the hands of a beginner.

She's exactly what a modern Street Fighter character should be - like Rufus, Viper, Abel, or Fuerte - loaded with options and flashy techniques which look spectacular in HD 3D. She is, however, far too powerful and Capcom know it. Before launch, she'll be weakened to bring her in line with the rest of the game's cast.

Shows off new costumes and new Ultras. Some of the costumes look great. Balrogs and Zangief, especially. Looking forward to using Zangief new Ultra.

[Drakul]

The embed code seems to have messed up. Can someone fix it for me?

[RoXer]

Cool.

Gunna Goozex mine this weekend so no more Street Fighter for me until this comes out.

[Kalyx triaD]

Bison gear for Cammy?!?

[Drakul]

Out of the new costumes we've seen so far I like Balrogs and Zangiefs the most. Zangiefs new Ultra looks awesome, espeacially the close up during the headlock, and should come in useful when I'm playing against people that like to constantly jump to stop me grabbing them.

[Khuntry]

Bison gear for Cammy?!?

HAAA! She knows what time it is.

[Drakul]

I just got through watching the Street Fighter movie over at Screwattack.com and they added their own commentery over it. I've not seen the movie since I was a kid.

Watching it now, I've just noticed that a few small details in the movie seem to have ended up in SFIV. A character workng for Bison looks a little like Rufus. He's a big fat guy with the ponytail, the handlebar moustache and the costume is similair but darker.
Bisons lair has a floating platform that looks a little like the reactor in Seths lab along with the floor in Bisons lair having the same pattern as Seths lab floor and in the movie, Blanka is in an incubation unit that is later raised up from Bisons floor. In Seths lab there are similair looking incubation units that seem to have risen from the floor with sillouettes in them.

Maybe all coincidences or maybe little nods to the Street Fighter movie.

[Super V]

Meh. Will wait for the next edition.

[Kalyx triaD]

HAAA! She knows what time it is.

Cammy has a counter for an Ultra. This is fucking awesome. Akuma's new Ultra looks weird, they should have used the Mountain Breaker.

I thought it looked a little flimsy. I'm not sure what the Mountain Breaker is although I'd probably know it if I saw it. If they made his second Ultra look like it had more impact, maybe it'd look better.

April 27th.

I just saw the English version. Looks very cool. I read just now on GameFAQS that there will be an SSIV anime movie but it's a 360 Japan only thing. I hope not.

Looking around online, I can't find it in English but it's downloadable in English on the 360.

I was hoping it wouldn't get released so close to RDR. I better start saving up.

- Soundtrack (with each characters theme)
- Original DVD with animated trailers from 2008 to 2010 and the SSFIV anime (anime is Japan only, apparantly)
- Art Booklet

[Kalyx triaD]

Nice.

[Drakul]

I wish they'd hurry up and announce the rest of the roster officially. There is a tournement in Japan at the start of April and it'll have all the characters available to use so it seems we'll get the characters revealed before April anyway. That still means we could be waiting until March for the official announcement, though. Someone did point out that new characters tend to be revealed on the 28th of each month so maybe we'll get something tomorrow. I doubt it. Probably the end of March.

[Emperor Smeat]

US box art is horrible when compared to the Japan box art :

Looks very bright and cool.

[Drakul]

Turns out we aren't get the Collectors edition at all but we will get a preorder bonus, according to a Capcom staff member on the Capcom forums.

Sorry no plans to release the Japanese CE in the UK, either through stores or the website (which at present we don't have the ability to sell goods through). Your best chance to get hold of one is probably ebay or via an import specalist, although we might be giving a couple away as a comp prize if we get our hands on.

We spoke to several retailers who indicated there was no demand for a European Collectors Edition to be released.

Enough with the negativity... we will be offering some geniune can only get them in Europe & the US pre order incentives. Japanese SSFIV fans will be spitting feathers!

I really doubt our preorder bonus with make Japanese fans "spit feathers". It's going to be something like a free costume pack. I don't get how there is no demand for a CE. the CE of SFIV sold out pretty fast.

[Kalyx triaD]

Eh.

[Drakul]

It bugs me because I really wanted that anime and soundtrack. I've pre ordered my copy anyway for £25. I'm hoping I still get the pre order bonus even though I pre ordered before it was announced.

"Let's get horizontal."

[Drakul]

Famitsu show screens of the next 3 character revealed. If they are showing them off, I'm guessing the next official reveal trailer could maybe be here on Friday, so you could just wait until then if you want a reveal with more punch than a few screen shots:
http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/500x_ssfiv_makoto_ibuki.jpg

Supposed scans from the latest issue of Famitsu - along with some equally supposed off-screen shots - suggest that there might be three more characters on the way for Super Street Fighter IV.

Those three characters - as expected - are Ibuki, Makoto and Dudley, all of which made their debut in Street Fighter III, and all of whose inclusion will no doubt please the more hardcore Street Fighter fans among you.

http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/500x_ssfiv_dudley.jpg

You'll recall Capcom telegraphed this move, at least partially, earlier in the week when they sent Crecente a very special Valentine's Day package (http://kotaku.com/5471288/is-street-fighter-3s-dudley-coming-to-super-street-fighter-iv).

http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/500x_sfscan3.jpg

With three of the four characters from last year's "leak" now joining the fight, that leaves one more unannounced fighter. Could an official reveal for Hakan be much further off?

[Funky Fly]

Cool.

[Drakul]

I know this isn't really the thread for it but I bought DOA4 a few days ago and, after Street Fighter IV, it takes a bit of getting used to. The AI is pretty relentless most of the time. Espeacially the last fight.
I used to be really good at DOA2 when I was younger but with DOA4, I'm feeling like an amatuer again. I can't even pull off any move more complex than *direction and punch/kick* because the AI doesn't stop moving at all. It's constantly punch or kicking. Reversing isn't as simple as I remember it being in DOA2, either. I don't care much for the online or lack of English VA, either. Anyone else go through this when they got DOA4 or am I just bad at 3D fighters?

Still, it's a good game but I prefer SFIV.

[Funky Fly]

Def harder than DOA2. Hell, I remember more than a few occasions where a bunch of us would be completely shit-faced and still pull off the most amazing combos and reversals. Only people that were any trouble were Leon/Bayman (good god, the counters that just kept chaining :'() and Tengu. DOA4 is a right bitch tho. AI can be relentless, especially when dealing with the ninja characters.

[Fignuts]

Fucking HATED the AI in DOA 4. Hard to learn anything when the comp counters every god damn thing you try.

[Kalyx triaD]

I like Ibukis Ultra at the end. I prefer that to the one they showed in the reveal trailer.

Why did they tease Hakan at the end of the trailer? Is he such a big deal he gets his own trailer or are they going to reveal more details other than the final character? It's probably going to be part of the final trailer that includes all the new characters in the game. If it, then why do it in the latest trailer?

[RoXer]

It's not because I don't want the game itself. There are just a lot more games out right now/coming out soon, that I want more than this.

[Fignuts]

Why the hell would you do it so soon? No one is going to pick the new characters over the ones they have had all this time to play with. You might as well hold the second tournament now, with regular SF 4.

[RoXer]

Because I got the same gripe for doing it so late last time.

Probly a month then. Or July 4th.

[RoXer]

Which is exatcly when I made the thread for the tourney. Weird.

Fuck, I'm going to be horrible for the next tourney. No guarantees that I'll be on at sociable hours.

Actually yeah, July 4th is a good start. Sf4 came out in Feb so it was too long a wait. July 4th is just right this time around.

I'm all for another tournament. I'm much more confident in my use of my characters now than I was during the last one.

I want to use at least one new character. Hopefully Hakan turn out to be the slow but powerful type of character I feel comfortable using. I'm going to try out T. Hawk for sure but I never liked him in SFII when I played it as a kid. I may prefer him now that I'm older and have found my prefered character style.

If KI retains it's combo gimmick. Something tells me Rare is going to try something different.

And make it terrible. Typical stoopid new Rare.

We'll see. I think common sense has come back to them lately.

dude, Killer Instinct was all about the combos...to do away with those would be taking away what made that game great.

[Kalyx triaD]

I'm sure there will be combos, I just don't think it'll be it's only gimmick. Will they have aerial raves? Parries? EX moves? I'm thinking they'll open up the engine a bit.
