New 2d fighting game from Capcom soon?

[DS]

This does kinda bug me about the doujin fighters. I'm all for them making female characters that don't suck (truthfully, until Makoto I only liked Cammy out of ALL of Capcom's female fighters), but flipping it around and making it a majority doesn't work either.



Because it's all the rage in Japan these days. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it's an all-female cast, but I doubt Capcom would go down that route. And even then, I'd still play it.

And lol @ Shade trying to ruin people's hopes. It could definitely be an all-new CFJ for all we know. As long as it's good and plays NOTHING like the first, then I'm all for it. I could care less if Dante and Megaman are in it. As long as it's new.

[MaybeMemories]

i really hope they dont mix games, eg: CFJ, it just looks horibble.
Then again they went for an original with SVC Chaos, all sprites re made and it sunk.

i did not know big bang beat was for the PC.
yoink ****

I think SVC Chaos was all SNK though, not Capcom. It looks that way, at least. I thought it was interesting, especially how all characters interacted.

I don't think this, whatever it is, is going to be a botch job that looks like it came out of MUGEN or something like CFJ2 was. They're even excited about it and getting up hype. I'm hoping that's a good sign.

[Shade]

As long as it's good and plays NOTHING like the first, then I'm all for it.

Big dreamer today, are we? Don't forget whom we are talking about. Same folk who are till this day, releasing ports of Street Fighter II.

All I see are wireframes and hitboxes. Like I said, I'll take it as long as it's different and fresh. I could be a sequel to ANY Capcom fighter. All that matters is that it's new.

In this day and age of fighters, you take what you can get. And if it doesn't deliver, move on.

[debs]

lol

here's hoping for something not a mash up. you guys do realize, if it is another "dream match" of sorts, we would just get reused sprite shit, right?

i'll be surprised if they don't use the sprites from the upcoming sf hd remix (is that what its called?)...udon is making the sprites, right? if capcom doesn't use those sprites for this new 2d game, if its sf related, i'll definitely be surprised.

:pray::pray::pray:

[Sexperienced.]

so what exactly is Taisen Kakuto?

[Dragonfave723]

so what exactly is Taisen Kakuto?

I think it's Japanese for "2D Versus Battle".

[DS]

This intrigues me greatly. I hope this news comes about before EVO.

[Kayin]

so what exactly is Taisen Kakuto?

Japanese term for fighting game, dunno what it literally translates to tho.

[Keits]

This intrigues me greatly. I hope this news comes about before EVO.

Those bastards should COME to evo to show it off. Spread the major hype through the USA.

[Gorehound]

This intrigues me greatly. I hope this news comes about before EVO.

It would be even better if they tested the game at EVO :bgrin:


Well at least we all don't have to worry about recycled sprites for this game, unless they put an ogre face on a Sakura body for a character then Capcom will indeed suck :wow:

[Sexperienced.]

I think it's Japanese for "2D Versus Battle".

thought so. for a minute i thought they were giving us new info.

[inkblot]

somehow I don't think "versus battle" marks a new vs. game. I think Capcom is using the term generically to mean"fighting game." We shall see in august I suppose.

[Mike C]

damn were gonna have to wait till august for the anouncement. The suspense is killing me

dudes, this doesn't mean it's a versus game. capcom fighting jam was 3 years ago and it was not a versus game. "versus battle" is just the japanese translation for "fighting game"

[Tigerboi]

Yeah, we've kinda been over that. They've made it clear that it is a 2d fighter.

[Johneh]

I think we should stop being so damn analytical about what it says, since we can't read Japanese. Everything we're hearing is second hand.

[Gorehound]

I know what is going to happen!

You guys are all excited about a new Capcom fighter and once it comes out and give it a few weeks!

You guys are going to say the game SUCKS!!!

And the game is going to be abandoned loosing all hope for another new Capcom 2D comeback!

[dreamboi]

If the new capcom fighter is anything like kof or cfj or smash bros,then its going to suck.I agree.Those 3 games are garbage,so lets hope its not like the 3 games i mention.

[magdalenarules]

If it were true, I'd know all about it. Our office is responsible for the SF IP.

SF3 engine

probably not,but that would be cool.I think Tech Romancer was the newest form of Cyberbots.Jin Saotome and Bloodia should have made an appearance.

Noone wants a new fresh original fighting game?

[Tigerboi]

It would be nice, but I'd love seeing one of my favorite franchises ever return.

and because I was never satisfied with the cast of one of capcom's mash up fighters, I'd like to see one of those to.

[bobino]

the website says its an original 2d fighter so it means that the game will not be a sequel of any past games.

[Radiantsilvergun3]

Way to beat a dead horse Babino.

anyway could be exciting hope to see what turns out.

[katraqueyous]

Here is a idiotic question.

What was the last ORIGINAL 2d fighter that capcom made 3 years ago?

[AlphaDragoon]

It was fucking CFJ, which I will not give a damn if they make a sequel to.

[Tigerboi]

i STILL don't see how orginal game means not a sequel.

[Marty]

i STILL don't see how orginal game means not a sequel.

Are you serious?

[Tigerboi]

Very.

and orginal game could very well be a sequel, becuase it's not a port/rehash/remake of another game. A sequel is still usually a totally different game, thus making it an orignal.

[Taito]

Here is a idiotic question.

What was the last ORIGINAL 2d fighter that capcom made 3 years ago?

That's a really good point actually.

[MannyKal]

That's a really good point actually.

must be CFJ......2004

Sounds like Capcom trying to save their asses, by being vague....

Please god, let this game be awesome......PLEASE.

[NegroNinja]

Blah people are gonna argue about what original CAN mean? This'll go on forever. Or at least until August.

[Tigerboi]

My point is that I'm not about to rule out any possibilities on what the game could be.

[Gaijinblaze]

I'd rule out SF4. You people are just setting yourselves up for a disappointment by thinking there's a chance it would be that.

One thing I noticed in this thread is that people kept emphasizing the "original" in original game. Well it does say game (based on other people's translations) as in a single installment, not series or franchise so I think it could certainly be a sequel.

Not like I have any idea what's going on anyway.

...seriously.

it cant be a spinoff because they are going to come out with ST HD remix (or whatever its called)

[Obliterate]

This could go on forever, Capcom vs. Darkstalkers, Capcom vs. DC, CFJ2, a Darkstalkers sequel, or something completely different.

I'm just happy to be getting something, hopefully it doesn't suck.

Every year the managers for EB games/Gamestop get together for a convention and last year I remember my manager at the time asked the Capcom rep about any new 2d fighters and his answer was:
Rep:You guys like Fighters?
the audience shouts in approval
Rep: You guys like DC superheroes?
The audience shouts in approval and anticipation
Rep: You guys like 3d!?
the crowd goes quiet.
Rep: err...moving on

God knows if they decide to trash that project or whatever happened to this :confused:

[LWK]

I don't want or care about original. I wan't another fighter, preferably a street fighter sequel that has the last-ability of Alpha 2, ST and 3S.

Also, if its a new game entirely, its gonna take a butt load of sequels to be worthy of true competitive play, so I don't feel like waiting a while.

I wouldn't mind them reusing the Naomi board, or possibly another CPS3 game.

what platform was CFJ on, if it had one. there wasn't an arcade release, right?

Just wondering, maybe get a better idea. I'd prefer CPSIII or Naomi though, since I feel the best games came out for those. CPSII is nice too, but it doesn't have anything CPSIII can't do, right?

I don't think that story is true. "Do you like 3D!"?

And usually, when a company is unveiling a game, they just do it. Regardless to the response. Otherwise it'd be a waste of time, resources and money just becuase a certain group of guys didn't cheer.

Well if they refer to Capcom Fighting Jam as an "original" game, the next title can be really anything, only remakes are ruled out but sequels and crossovers are a possibility, it doesn't have to be completely original project.

That gives me a lot of hope. It seems to imply that they knew CFJ was shit, so they didn't want to hype people's hopes up for a huge let-down. Which therefore implies that this new game will be THE shit, which is worth hyping people up over

It is in North America since arcades for the most part are an endangered species.

To that guy who mentioned the Namco board for Capcom arcade games, yes they have used System 246 before, mainly for its Gundam DX games, CFJ (lol), and I think that PrideFC game. You can find a pretty complete list at System16.com.

And this game will likely run on Taito TypeX^2 since Capcom has yet to announce anything for it, yet they are part of the 3rd party list for said arcade board.

But it isn't a major capcom release. I. E. RE5, DMC4....i'm sorry, it just isn't. It's a redraw of a over decade year old game and is being released as a download.

Im no Capcom fanboy but enjoyed the hell of CFJ but not as much as CVS2 or even CVS1 and will always look foward for them (or Sammy, Namco even Midway) to release any new fighting game, test it, and if its bad, brash it or wathever. Lets pray that its something good and if its CFJ2 maybe they will nerf vampyre characters and so to make the game more balanced.

[Tigerboi]

Or just redraw the sprites instead of cutting them directly from other games. that'll eliminate that problem.

If it's something else, cool. I don't care what the game is simply because I thought we'd never get another 2d fighter from capcom.

[magdalenarules]

I hope it has at least as many frames of animation as 3s. I've always preferred that to GG, even though the drawings themselves in GG are nice to look at. I'm also a little disappointed that we won't get to see any fresh new capcom character/universe designs since it's (reliably rumored) to be based on an existing game. I hope Capcom is really trying to revolutionize things with this game and not just making money off the Devil Kings popularity in Japan. At least the backgrounds will be fresh and new I guess

[Saiyajin11]

I would LOVE to see a 2D Rival Schools vs. Kenichi game. That would rock...........

[elvis_a_presley]

To that guy who mentioned the Namco board for Capcom arcade games, yes they have used System 246 before, mainly for its Gundam DX games, CFJ (lol), and I think that PrideFC game. You can find a pretty complete list at System16.com.

Capcom in the past have used Sony ZN-1 (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=796) and Sony ZN-2 (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=797). These are all Playstation based (http://www.system16.com/base.php#1) hardware, similar to Namco's System 10 (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=540), System 11 (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=533), and System 12 (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=535).

CFJ (a 2D fighter) was on System 246 (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=802) - aka a Development model Playstation 2 in a box. Again, the same basis for hardware for Namco's Tekken 4 (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=543&page=2#1391), and later on evolving into System 256 (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=546) (some speed and RAM enhancements) for Tekken 5 (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=546&page=1#1401) and 5-DR (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=546&page=1#1403).

It is rumoured that Namco had some say in the design of both the Playstation and PS2 and early on in both made deals with Sony to use their hardware exclusively. From a shareholder perspective, I'm fairly certain Namco also have heavy financial investments in Sony's gaming devision.

In the arcade world this sort of practice is not uncommon. Hardware is expensive to DESIGN, and much more frequently you'll find people licensing other's hardware. Doing so has a lot of advantages. Obviously cost (you don't need a huge team of engineers), time (hardware is already good to go), ease of home ports (System 256 -> Playstation 2 porting is not as difficult thanks to similar hardware), etc.

This happens all over the shop. Sega/Sammy use Atomiswave hardware (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=812) which is essentially a ROM-driven SEGA Dreamcast. SNK-Playmore moved to this same hardware after the official death of the Neo Geo hardware.

Taito's Type X (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=677) and Type X + (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=678) are gaining HUGE popularity amongst arcade developers. For better or worse it's just a PC in a box which will run pretty much anything you like. Developers have a choice of Windows embedded with DirectX (making porting to Xbox 360 easier), or any other embedded OS (a few Linux/SDL/OpenGL variants are out there in the world too). Plus Taito are very multi-developer/publisher friendly. Gone are the days of intense arcade rivalry. Everyone knows that to make a dollar these days they have to work together and share tech, especially with the fickle gamer happy to sit at home on their consoles and not make it out to arcades (well, outside of Japan, anyway).

For Capcom to design and build their own hardware would be a pretty expensive deal. Plus they get a lot of negativity from arcade ops with their suicide boards. CPS2 and CPS3 are both a PITA to own unless you can pheonix/desuicide the things yourself. Using someone else's hardware means the hard work and debugging phases are not there, and you can get on with making games instead of tweaking hardware.

[HuStLeMaN17]

I just hope that the game comes out for 360 and ps3 to keep everybody happy.

[Riot.EXE]

all I really want from any company in terms of fighting games is a completely new game...new franchise and whatnot. Sequels are nice, but Upgrades are stupid...

In terms of Capcom...it's a bittersweet feeling...I can see the halfassedness in the sprites now...yes, totally sounding like an ass, think about Third Strike. Yes, the animation is fluid as hell and it's still fun to play today, but consider the following:

- Ryu, Ken, Sean, Akuma are built off of the same sprite.
- Gill and Urien are built off of the same sprite.
- Yun and Yang are built off of the same sprite
- All this fucking time and they still can't do actual shadows? KoF '94 and MK 1 even had actual shadows...what the fuck, right?

and to add even more insult to injury, consider the following about Project Justice:

- Details were shaded onto the characters, the polygons are far more simple than they appear to be (and considering how Soul Calibur looked on Dreamcast at launch...thats REALLY bad.)
- it's a fucking 3D game and characters hardly emote, much less move their mouths when they speak...AND THERE'S STILL CIRCLES FOR SHADOWS!?!

...I'm not dissing the gameplay of capcom's fighters, because for the most part, they're fun and still stand up today...but they need to fucking step it up in the visuals department. There's just no real excuse anymore...and yes, I'm grateful they're producing something new at all...it's indeed better than nothing.

[Tigerboi]

the same can be said for just about every capcom game ever made.

Resident Evil CV still used the fucking re1 sound effects.

The same sprite was used over and over agian in just about every megaman series. (classic, Zero, X (both PSX and SNES) and EXE)

DMC3 reused alot of sound effects from DMC1.

hell, as a three years ago, they were STILL using sprites from alpha. That's just crazy.

It's not a big deal IMO, but I feel your gripes.

[hubcapsignstop]

i dont see how you can come at 3S's visuals

and if pallette swapping helps get a few more charactes in there, then im all for it (especially since other than the standing/jumping/etc animations, and some normals, the characters are very well differentiated). and apparently the simple shadows dont bother me

all im hoping for is a solid, 2d (preferably frame animated) fighter with stateside release
boom; thats it

[Kyokuji]

Brash

[felineki]

I hope it has at least as many frames of animation as 3s.I don't think that's ever going to happen again. That kind of level of animation takes a lot of effort to develop, far too much for something that's not going to be accepted at large (3s was released in 1999 when the crowds were already starting to abandon 2D fighters, and now 8 years later hardly anyonewill even touch them). Sad, but that's how it goes. This is why we can't have nice things.

Riot.EXE, personally, I like the circle shadows better. The "actual" shadows are too distracting.

[MaybeMemories]

VERY true, as SNK stated themselves they dont make enough money to be dishing out new concepts , thus the major port re-releases.

[Shade]

The same sprite was used over and over agian in just about every megaman series. (classic, Zero, X (both PSX and SNES) and EXE)


You're right with everything sans this.

EXE uses a new set of sprites, different from any other series.
X1-X3 shares sprites (X for example), but a new set of sprites were made for X4 through X6.
Rockman Zero's sprites are a new set, not shared with anything but ZX.
Classic's sprites were shared (again, only a few characters, like Megaman) until 6, then 7 had a new set, and 8 had a new set, not used in anything else.

=P

Well, actually, Zero and X had the same sprites in all three x games in the psx.

NO WAIT.

Zero has a new sprite in X6. that's about it.


Zero series: Zero has the same sprite in every zero game. so does harpunia and the other diciples of Copy X. Oh, and, Copy X has the same sprite as well.

Megaman 1-6 all have the same sprite. And Megaman and forte and Megaman 8 also have the same sprites.

[Shade]

But that's just being ridiculous. Of course the main characters in each of the games share the same sprites. What would be the point in redrawing their frames, when there's nothing wrong with them in the first place? And this is a far cry from every stage, every enemy, every boss, and every item being new in every sequel to every game.

Let's not be picky/crazy, here.

[HuStLeMaN17]

I think gameplay at this point is a bit more important then redrawn sprites.

[AlphaDragoon]

I think gameplay at this point is a bit more important then redrawn sprites.

Not with Capcom. Not at this point. Them using garbage like a 16-year old Morrigan sprite from 1991 is UNACCEPTABLE, no matter how good the game said shitty ancient sprite is in may be. After seeing 3S which is ten years old itself there's no fucking excuse. There's a distinct difference in "zomg dis game sux it don't have gud graphics" and the sheer laziness Capcom's pulled on some of their stuff.

If Capcom doesn't give a fuck about putting in work on the sprites (like what was said about 3S above me) then don't make a 2D fighter. Simple as that. We know they can make high-quality 3D, so if they don't want to put their all into a 2D game then don't do it.

[Corner-Trap]

Dark Stalkers/Vampire Savior 4 :clap:

[HuStLeMaN17]

then don't make a 2D fighter. Simple as that.

Actually I think people would prefer to have a fighter than not have one at all.

[AlphaDragoon]

Actually I think people would prefer to have a fighter than not have one at all.

I'm not so sure about that; if we knew we were getting something on the same level as CFJ....exactly how many people would be at their local store pre-ordering it? Nobody? Really...? Oh.

I'm glad Capcom is making a new 2D fighter, but they NEED to give it their all.

[Tigerboi]

Let's not be picky/crazy, here.

In that case, the reused sprites in capcom fighting games (morrigan in CVS2) has nothing on the stages, new character sprites, menus and 3d projectile models then. Therefore every complaint about sprite recycling ever made in the past is moot. simply because sprites are often reused in totally new games. (I mean, really, Ryu in Alpha 1 is the same in MVC2)

IMO, Reusing sprites is reusing sprites. But I never see it as a big deal overall. but it's kind of annoying sometimes. (again, morrigan)

[HuStLeMaN17]

Mvc2 had new sprites for the new characters, correct?

[Tigerboi]

that question answers itself. :lol:

[HuStLeMaN17]

my point was as long as the hit box is the same for old cap characters does it really matter?

[Tigerboi]

Well...I did say this:
IMO, Reusing sprites is reusing sprites. But I never see it as a big deal overall. but it's kind of annoying sometimes. (again, morrigan)

If they reuse sprites, they reuse sprites. but, as said earlier, there's just no excuse to anymore. I doubt they will anyway.

[~Shin Gouki~]

So, uhh...what concrete information do we have about the new game? From what I've been reading, it's unnamed and it's been three years since Capcom released an original 2D fighter. Is that all we've got at this point?

[Darklightjg1]

Maybe it's NamcoXCapcom the RIGHT way? ...Not that the SRPG was bad either...okay so it was too easy so what!

This is what I'm hoping for as well. I didn't hate the SRPG :xeye:, but I'd reeeeally rather see a versus game for that crossover happen.

-I'm also open to the idea of a CFJ2. They can correct their mistakes from previous games. Trust me. I've seen them do it. :lol:

-Regardless, I want Lei Lei to be playable if either game comes out.

-As for SF4, I'm still under the impression that they're waiting to see how SSF2T: HD is received before any new Street Fighter sees the light of day. I'm not holding my breath... I passed out the last time I tried that.

-I never played Sengoku Basara/Devil Kings so I don't know what to make of a fighting game based on that series. *shrugs*

...'Looking forwarding to getting more information about this game. Hopefully it'll be soon.

[MannyKal]

-I'm also open to the idea of a CFJ2. They can correct their mistakes from previous games. Trust me. I've seen them do it. :lol:

Two points for truth.

Honestly, if Sf4 is not in dev at all, it should be; now is the time to do it.
Last few years of Udon comics, rereleases of SF collections, online play, annoucing a new live-action movie, enhacing the visual look of ssf2t, announcing a new 2D fighter, getting mainstream gaming news and fans to notice the franchise again...

Tons of cheap, but effective marketing....

Now is the time....

[~Shin Gouki~]

Too true, I know abunch of people who'd shit themselves if SF4 were announced.

[MaybeMemories]

theyre too far off for sequels so if ss4 is to come, it will have to be fresh, therefore it will have to be in the making for quite a while.

with the background and style of the site, i sense something new

[Shade]

Again, I only brought up the Megaman games, because that's a different Ball Park than a Fighting game.

What is done in terms of re-used material for a platformer, is no excuse for what they pull in these fighting games. Therefore, we have something to agree on.

[Tigerboi]

Honestly, I clearly see what you mean. therefore, it's best to agree to disagree.

We both seem to know that capcom is stubborn about changes to the point of madness, so we're almost on the same page anyway.

[Dan?]

I know it's not SF4, but still...


Thank you Lord Jesus.

[Thongboy Bebop]

Oh Shit It's Dan?

N

[PARKER C.MURDOCK]

It would be funny if that add turned out to be for Street Fighter HD.

[JubeiNinja69]

i actually lol. its says original so i'm hoping its original like a new franchise.

[TornadoFlame]

Finally, YO NOID gets his own fighting game.

[Dan?]

Oh Shit, Capcom's new 2D Fighter is Dan? Hide the womenfolk.

N

SHHH! Don't just go around tellin everybody man...

[katraqueyous]

Taito's Type X (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=677) and Type X + (http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=678) are gaining HUGE popularity amongst arcade developers.
.

Will this hardware have any kind of regional lockout?

[rikc]

As exciting as this is, I doubt it's a new Street Fighter. If they were making SF4, why not just say it from the start? "New Street Fighter" has a lot more hype power than "New 2D fighter," especially since 2D fighters are really a niche genre these days.

[Daigo 3'S]

I wonder if its CAPCOM ALL STARS ???
My mistake they scrapped that project to make fighting evolution.:confused:
I hope it looks high quality like 3rd strike wise. Is this game going to run in naomi or atomwave?

[n8archer_XI]

I'm hoping for Capcom Fighting Jam 2. There was a MUGEN parody of it on the web a while ago, and I was hooked by the mention of 62 characters...

[Tenki Sensei]

What the fuck?! Y'all got no love for CVS3!?
If the Sengoku Basara is what's coming out, that'll be the biggest let down from Capcom period. We don't need another random ass fighter by Arc. We have Guity Gear already.

[n8archer_XI]

Are they gonna announce something about this at E3, because Pocket Fighter 2 has been due for a good while...

[chunbelievable]

I realize I may be old to the news but, why is it Alpha 4 is not a possibility? I mean aside from the fact that CapUSA has the SF IP. Was there something determined that another Alpha game could never happen?

[Worthless]

New Marvel isn't happening because i think until 2009 or something Activision has the major Marvel licenses. New CvS isn't happening because the recent contract between Capcom and Snk ended with Cardfighters on DS....

...and new SF isn't happening because America would be the 1st to know,and Capcom of America has the rights to SF,not Capcom of Japan. Maybe it's the Arc game or whatever,but idk if they'd hype it as a game they made if it was the case.

Watch the game be a new Vampire or CFE/J2 or something...

[MaybeMemories]

alpha 4 wouldnt sell of 360 and ps3 !! and the amount of mega collections/ ports [psp?] theve released it wont happen

[Nokato]

This isn't going to be an SF game, or CFJ even...it won't have anything to do with previously established characters or games. More than likely it will be a 2-D fighting game based "Sengoku Basara"--with outsourcing talent by Arc Systems.
Although this is speculation right now, it seems more logical that this would be the case.

Mainly because, Capcom Fighting Jam, Street Fighter, and any or all series connected to SF would mean that Capcom USA would know all about it. Seeing as theres been no announcement of any sort on an American Capcom site about a "new 2-D fighter" outside of HD, I don't see it being SF related. I think the only thing that could possibly connect it to SF would be that in the trailer about it being 3 years since an "Original" 2-D fighter (CFJ), although I find it pretty strange to call CFJ an original fighting game but, whatever.

Much like most I would "kinda like" to see a CFJ2...but not really. I don't trust the producers and directors at Capcom right now in terms of fighting games. Ever since Yoshihiro Ono said, they worked hard to make CFJ look good--I have little to no faith in their dedication to 2-D fighting games, hence it being extremely logical for Capcom to outsource for 2-D talent at this point.

Okamoto and Funamizu were SF IMO--once they left it was over. I think the best producers outside of those 2 were Shinji Mikami (RE) and Hideki Okugawa (SFIII series).

I can only hope that this game is done really well and maybe, the sprite style will still mimmick a capcom artist but with higher-res and maybe slightly more quality. Seeing Kinu Nishimura or CRMK's style in sprites for a game like "Sengoku Basara" would be really interesting. I think the closest thing to mimmick Ikeno Medaka's art is 3s and well Sammy does nice shiny anime quality sprites, Capcom still has them beat in terms of animation quality.

[HuStLeMaN17]

Capcom vs Mortal Kombat sorry I had to say it, runs and hides... :confused:

[CRYSIS_ROSSO]

alpha 4 wouldnt sell of 360 and ps3 !! and the amount of mega collections/ ports [psp?] theve released it wont happen

why won't alpha 4 sell on 360 or PS3?

[n8archer_XI]

Because Capcom has already milked the Alpha series to the limit. There's no one else they can probably add to SFA4 because its canon is set in between SF1 and SF2 and the PSP version maxed out everyone they could stuff in. There is no more story to tell, because alpha 3 maxed out the storyline the same way it did the characters. It's not that Capcom wouldn't want to make SFA4, and it's not that it wouldn't sell. It's that SFA4 is capable of being nothing more than a tweak of Alpha 3, and just another update...

[Keits]

That 'story' reason they cant do a game is BS.

They have rewritten the story SO many times, whenever it was convenient, that they could easily do it again.

Im not saying Alpha4 could happen, im just saying that using a fighting game's story as reason to bar a sequel is really short sighted.

[shatterstar]

Capcom vs Namco....OR it's Capcom vs Sammy(whatever).

I hate all the 'vs.' games. I know I'm in the minority on that one. I'd much rather see a small-cast, high-res, solidly-built 2D game that proves capcom can lay new groundwork and not just mooch old IP's to death.

I agree. As cool as SF4 would be I'd really like to see them make something new and awesome.

...That isn't a Devil Kings game. :rofl:

[magdalenarules]

Actually, since we've confirmed it's not street fighter related, that probably also means it won't be a fighting jam or a versus game of any kind, because no versus game or jam game would be complete without at least some of the street fighter characters

[~Shin Gouki~]

Good point, but I think with the hint of "3 years since an original release" we knew that was the case. The only thing we're all doing here is speculating wishfully, though we know out favorite, or at least my favorite fighter series, Street Fighter, isn't getting it's sequel yet.

[n8archer_XI]

but we never know...why is Capcom keeping us waiting?!

[Obliterate]

Because they know we are whores.

[Obliterate]

Theoretically, they could do SFA4, which this is highly unlikely, it could take place before SF1 (IE Akuma before he became evil, Ryu/Ken's master, etc.), or after SF3 but before SF4.

I'm just gonna wait before I get my hopes up too high.

...or after SF3 but before SF4.

[Fadedsun303]

E3 maybe?

I read that they are supposedly going to annouce it in August.

From Insert Credit:

"And supposedly coming to the arcades! Let's go with the official part first - Capcom has just opened a teaser web page announcing a forthcoming original 2D fighting game, right here. Now, with the speculation - AM-Net (a news web site dedicated to the arcade industry which is usually very reliable, if you ask us), claims that it will be based on Sengoku Basara, and is being developed by Arc System Works. More than that, they say that the game would be first shown this August in a private show."

[tetsuye00]

EA doesn't have the DC license. Activision and EA only have Marvel.

yeah, looked things over. DC, which is Time-Warner, seems to do things on a single contract basis.

Oh, and Marvel is fun cause they do a Comics licence, and then individual movie licences, and anything else they feel like.
