Street Fighter 4 Announced!

[yungb254]

Its the end of the World as we know it!!

[DarthTrey]

lolololol this is awesome

Capcom announces SF4 the day of my birthday. Its like it was destiny or something.....

[Strider Hiryu]

SF4 has been out for years. Mike Watson is the final boss.

lololololololol. no one has ever beaten the game

[AKUMA2000]

Capcom just b*tch slapped all the naysayers and pessimists who said SF4 was never coming. :nunchuck:





C'mon Sakura!!!! She should be legal now.

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

[complexz]

wowww! i was so disipointed i thought i was gonna sleep through this news as i was up mad late last night, but my street fighter instincts kicked in and woke me up at 9 on the dot to find a crashed capcom server.

*sniffle* I'm just so happy right now!

[Dios <-X->]

If its still in pure 2-d ima go nuts.

[Mystic_bash]

Holy shit, I got half way through this thread when I noticed the thread jumped from 8 pages up to 11, Lol. I think it would look good on arc systems, Just dont go all crazy and shit like HNK. Then again, If its cps3...........Nah, I'd rather pay money to play, Its fuckin sf4 after all.

[Ephidel]

Wow I thought my cpu went crazy for a sec seeing this forum. I kept refreshing the page hot damn! ;)

[Sano]

Yeah this is great news. Both Ryu and Ken return ah yeah! Dang man can't see jack on the Capcomunity site. Guess I'll go buy some comics and hope there's some goodness when I'm back. :smile:

[Marty]

Oh, oh I'm sorry? What's never coming? What? Street Fighter 4 was it? Never coming out?

Funny old world.

[Vegett0]

I was speechless for quite a while. Definitely some celebrations going on tonight!

The Day has come!

[Biolink]

First problem is solved.

Now who in the fuck is going to develop the game?

[HAMMER FRENZY]

This is freaking crazy. Capcom should have had more to show though.

[asianhitler]

I don't see Guile being in SF4. What's the point if Bison isn't in it?

I wonder how much time will pass since SF3. I call Sean returning and Ken's kid is now a teen and playable.

How do evolve past SF3's parry engine? SF4 will have multiple grooves/ism. Bet it!

[Atb_555]

First problem is solved.

Now who in the fuck is going to develop the game?

Half Capcom Half Dimps :)

[Azagtoth]

Well, all we need is announcements for Duke Nukem Forever and Starcraft Ghost, and we'll have the holy trinity and the internet will explode.

[Sacr3D]

Holy shit, I got half way through this thread when I noticed the thread jumped from 8 pages up to 11, Lol. I think it would look good on arc systems, Just dont go all crazy and shit like HNK. Then again, If its cps3...........Nah, I'd rather pay money to play, Its fuckin sf4 after all.

Actually I hope they make a new engine... and not put it on Arc Systems.....

[Goten X]

I called this as soon as they made that cryptic news post on their forum. You know, that one a lot of people thought was gonna be [insert random Capcom character] in Brawl or something?

So glad it's finally coming.

/GX

[ILLiterate]

Street Fighter 4 will be the greatest game ever, so good that the video game industry except arcades will go out of business, because everyone will run to their GameStop to return their Halo 3, Gears of War, Guitar Hero, and GTA copies for credit toward Street Fighter 4

[COMMONSENSE]

and my life is complete

[Lobelia Mk. IV]

Street Fighter IV. I'm stunned. I am quite literally stunned.
*grim reapers around my head* vwoovwoovwooovwoovwoo.....

[Lord Lester]

I'm happy.

[krost]

A mentally retarded person just hopped around the entire library like a bunny rabbit. She must've read the sf4 news.

Great news!!

[Bare Knuckle 2]

Eat shit non-believers.

Was I the only one who made money on this? (sorry smoothcat)

Will do sir. Quite convenient since I have to take a shit anyways.

[SmoothCat]

Eat shit non-believers.

Was I the only one who made money on this? (sorry smoothcat)

:sad: run that shit back in a money match when the game comes out

[General Deamond]

I'm hella stoked now. Plz bring back Hugo Capcom!

[yungb254]

Great news!!
lol, damn thats funny.

[Diek Stiekem]

Hmm one thing bothers me....
Capcom Japan site is up and displays nothing about SF4...
We all know that Capcom USA has the rights now but still....
Paranoia setting in..

[Arsenal]

I think the character roster won't exceed 20. SFII series and SFIII have about that many characters in their rosters.

[goodm0urning]

OH HOLY MOTHER OF GOD.






l;ajsf;lasjf;lkzcj'pdsj4;oaiwREahsa~1!!!!!!!!!

[Raph_Stryker]

for people worried about Arc System making SFIV..

Ryu has never air dashed..so why would he start now :confused:

Unless he has a rockets strapped to his legs, but then that'd be silly, even for Street Fighter (a spanish ninja..i mean, seriously... lol jk)

[ToXY]

Hmm an undead version of charlie :)

[1]

Man..fuck classes right now. I have to celebrate somehow. Fucking SF4....

[Shinto]

Tasemenmonkeymadpoo is not an air dash?

[Humbag]

lol at dicks like SHADE that say it would never come out!!!!

SF4 WOOOOOOOT.

[Manx]

Thank you Capcom. All I need now is Duke Nukem Forever and I can die peacefully. :tup:

[Lilman]

Um WTF. Its acutally real. I have no idea what to say.

[Oroman]

Hopefully Gen will return, and teach Yun a lesson. I'm gonna go crazy today, Weeeeeeeeeeeee!

[Hunter D]

There were those that said this day wouldn't come.

It is upon us.

PS Capcom please strangle that whore Chunli.

[Taskmaster]

[ShinJN]

OMG. I read the news on Kotaku and I literally jumped up at work and yelled, "OMG.. STREET FIGHTER 4!!!!" This was followed by a minute of "OMG, I cannot believe this.. YEA!"

Talk about bombs, this surely is one. I'm so damn speechless and awed. I feel like drinking and I don't even drink!

[axeman61]

"YYYYEEAAAAGGGHHH!"

The exact same scream that ruined Howard Dean's presidency run just howled itself out of my mouth involuntarily. I almost just got kicked out of this computer lab for it.

[angryliberal]

i have to say, this news has really made this rainy day lovely! here's to hoping capcom listens to the real fans on development of this game...

[Azagtoth]

PS Capcom please strangle that whore Chunli.

Somebody please rep this man.

[Oroman]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v185/Cardinal_Fang/sf4.jpg

Holy shit that looks freaking sweet!!!!11 :lovin:

[shoo]

im gonna hold off on any excessive giddyness until i see something from capcom officially

like in the capcomunity site


but i feel it wanting to come out :3

[-SuGaR-]

There is only one thing I can say right now to describe how I feel about SF4, and that's

BYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

[Fadedsun303]

This is insane. I can't believe it's true! Where's the trailer? I can't find it anywhere.

[DongHwan]

This is the next biggest thing since the release of La Blue Girl 2

[DarkNecrid]

source of pic???


IF its real then maybe they're just restarting the storylines....but idk.

[GC!?]

Street Fighter 4
Development has just begun and the release of the game is more than a year away. No platforms are yet confirmed - a highly stylised animated concept trailer of Ryu and Ken fighting was shown, but no game footage.


I was kinda hoping SF4 was already in development and it was all a big secret.

still, nonetheless, very surprising news.

[Bobbypigo]

my life was looking bleak lately, and well I was thinking about killing myself. But now I have something to live for

Glad you changed your mind, if only for the comp you will provide on SF4.

[caliagent#3]

lol at dicks like SHADE that say it would never come out!!!!

SF4 WOOOOOOOT.

don't forget Henaki....

[Raph_Stryker]

*explodes a bit*

[Random Brave]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v185/Cardinal_Fang/sf4.jpg

is this real?

[ToXY]

It's got the same tagline as friday the 13th pt 5, in that movie jason wasn't even in it, hopefuly its not the same with sf4 having no old characters in it...

[Mr.hitBOX]

:sad: run that shit back in a money match when the game comes out

Nestor vs Smooth for the first MM on SF4....THE MADNESS HAS ONLY BEGUN

[ShinJN]

I'd like to add one note.... take THAT to all those fools hating on us old folks (and some of you new) waiting for SF4. I think this news just made us younger by just a bit.

I'm not digging the new logo if that is the real one. It doesn't give off that SF vibe. It looks like a logo for a racing game.

[Lebowsk1]

That is what i call, EXTREEEEEEEEEEEME

LETS DOOOOOO ITTTTTTTTTTTT

[Festival6667]

First problem is solved.

Now who in the fuck is going to develop the game?I'd say that even that is not the real problem: what the fuck is the engine gonna be? I don't care if the game is ultra-low-res, I don't care if it's ugly, I don't even care if it's not better animated than ST but don't fucking even try to sell me a half-assed engine.

I don't care if it's not balanced at first but if the capcom boys try to be all looks and no game then I'll go berserk.

[pvp.tW34k]

Holy shit.

[RawisJericho]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v185/Cardinal_Fang/sf4.jpg

It looks a little ( too much ) like the Mario Soccer logo

OMF'NG! WOWAWEE CUM IN MY PANTS AWOOOOOO!!!!!!!

I like how Wiz put up a 2.5 minute wait time between posts now hahahaha. The Wiz taking safety measures to prevent SRK from crashing.

Truth,truth.I don't want a Guilty Gear-ish game,because I can play Guilty Gear if I want that shit.

[shoultzula]

since its took 11 years for sf4, can I assume that sf5 will take just as long if not double? if this is the case, i'll probably be dead before sf6 makes it to the market easy lol.

[Fallback]

i doubt we see many if at all characters from SF3
most of them were of the "who gives a shit" variety well said... lol

[SaveFighting]

Holy Fuck Holy Fuck.

This Is History In The Making! :lovin: :looney::lovin:

[SweetJohnnyV]

Hell fucking yeah! :wow:

Did anyone grab the images/video from Capcom's site before it got owned? I need to see something!! :sweat:

[Shinto]

A new beginning? I want a old ending :annoy:

[Taskmaster]

Holy Fuck Holy Fuck.

I'm CUMMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheDarkPhoenix]

I tolddddd yall SF4!!!!! there is nothing else that can live up to the hype they building.

when I read this my eyes teared up. my co-works prob though my mom just died or something.

I want them oldschool SF2 songs damn it. SF2 Ken's Theme is still to this day, Top Tier, Ryu's is up there as well, and so is Guiles.

I want to hear a completely revamped version of them for SF4. Someone commented about air-dashes before..dear gosh, I hope they don't try to implement that kind of crap.

I'll be looking forward to smashing people's heads in with Hadouken's again. I hope I'm not the only one voting for Sean not be shit this time around. Ryu ftw still!

[ShinJN]

I hope someone out there is monitoring all the traffic on the internet regarding the SF4 news. SRK is about to be hammered, Capcom-Unity is down, GamesRadar is down, etc. I would like to the see traffic spikes just for today, lol.

Think since Wiz knew about SF4, he made sure that SRK would be able to handle the subsequent insanity? Probably...

I seriously thought that if there was a new SF game, it wouldn't be SF4, but a compilation of some kind; I'm glad I'm wrong.

This was PROPHESIED! I saw the first pictures of my unborn son yesterday (wife is 2 months pregnant) and his (better be a boy) hands were out like he was holding a controller.

[Zan-kun]

I would probably be jumping for joy and making an ass of myself were I not in a library.

Shit's too good. If its PS3 or 360 exclusive, I'm buying one of them ho's on the spot. GG Capcom!

[ShinJN]

I hope the trailer is only for marketing purposes. I really don't want a 3D Street Fighter game. All attempts have been junk. I enjoyed playing the 3D games, but it really isn't for SF. 2D for the mother f'en win.

[Arsenal]

ATB_555 said half Capcom / half Dimps, his info has been reliable so far through this fiasco, so...

[BlodiaVulcan5]

I FUCKIN CAME.




first SONIC in Brawl? NOW THIS???!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!??!?!?!




I came HARD, did a shoryuken during it do, so it spewed in a spiral.




fucking hellllll.



and yeah, i had a feeling it was Sf4.


oh oh, and Shoryuken.com will get even more members now.


THE INTERNET GOT PWNED BY CAPCOM, this is thier first time.

[Manx]

I would probably be jumping for joy and making an ass of myself were I not in a library.

Do it anyway. Maybe someone will ask you if you're okay.

it cant be!!!!

the trailer was so badass regardless

[Ultima]

*sees trailer*

Well fuck me. I came.

[Sacr3D]

I'm having some trouble with the vid... does it confirm it will be 2D?!

Bro, if they don't make it 2d it will be the greatest insult to all SF fans. They just can't not make it 2d.


it cant be!!!!

Most games have a 3D presentation. It was either this style or anime style. Doesn't mean anything.

[complexz]

ohh damn was just updloading the trailer to youtube.....ohhwell lol

trailer was damn cool...but 3d and american looking...but im still hyped and happy! its obviously not gameplay footage so it dont matter

[BLACKLAC]

Sweet News!!!!!!!!

[Einlanzer]

Street Fighter IV Death Match at Evo2k10.

[The Granby]

Why are people complaining about "American" looking? Who cares? It's SFIV you heathens.

[Hunter D]

You guys better be prepared because I don't think this game will be 2d. Anyone expecting HD sprites with 3S animation should stop thinking like that because it would cost a shit ton of money.

[DarkNecrid]

BROKE DAT RECORD of members on SRK

too bad itll never be beat now

[Lord Lester]

Quit complaining. Haha. I thinks it's awesome.

DEAR FRIENDS


I COME NOW, BY THE AUTHORITY GIVEN BY THE PEOPLE TO MY PERSON...


DECLARE...



IN THE REASON OF THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF STREET FIGHTER 4...




THAT FROM THIS DAY ON...


THE OCTOBER 17th WILL BECOME A WORLD HOLYDAY...




HOLY...



SACRED...



WHOSE DARE TO PROFANE WILL BE SENTENCED TO PLAY "THE KING OF FIGHTERS 2000" UNTIL THE REST OF HIS LIFE, WITHOUT EVER EVER PUT THE HANDS ON THE SOVEREIGN "STREET FIGHTER 4".

[Ultima]

Actually, it reminded me a lot of Okami, albeit a super-stylized version of it. I though it looked great!

Ryu looked a bit ugly though - they need to make his nose smaller.

[Shim Sang Joon]

*explodes*

[DropkickT]

Holy crap. This is awesome!

[Strider Hiryu]

BROKE DAT RECORD of members on SRK

too bad itll never be beat now

itll be broken when mvc3 comes out

[The Granby]

There is fucking 700+ people on this forum. God damn..... can i go over 900 by afternoon?

[Arsenal]

Yes, and Ken's chin was all sorts of strange looking, but... I do not care, that trailer will tide me over until we see game footage.

[BB Hood]

I expect the new forum record to be 950 by the end of today. Its at 726 right now.

[Zan-kun]

You guys better be prepared because I don't think this game will be 2d. Anyone expecting HD sprites with 3S animation should stop thinking like that because it would cost a shit ton of money.


Even still, you know Capcom can't fuck this one up. Not saying that it will be 3D, but if it is, Capcom will bring their A game and create something amazing.

If they can revitalize a dead genre with RE4, they can definitely do it with Street Fighter.

Though, 2D ftw!

[00000000]

http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/1195460/2/istockphoto_1195460_exploding_bottle_of_champagne. jpg

Don't believe it untill it's on Capcom's site.


Seriously... That happened to me todae at work... in my pants.


You know though, regardless of how good or bad the first iteration of SF4 turns out. We've learned that so long as you support and tourney and give input on things (developers working for) companies like ArcSys, Capcom, Namco do listen. So, even if SF4 is rubbish, we keep playing, flooding boards with suggestions, and holding tourneys then we could always get "rehashes" that work out much better than the last (which is something I believe would've done nicely for 3s.

[Tiger Knee]

Wow... did hell freeze over? :amazed: Although I guess it didn't if it's in 3D. Oh well, as long as it still plays like a 2D Street Fighter, at least we get a new one made this way.

[R | C]

Looking back now ....

Sengoku Basara X

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

[Sacr3D]

You guys better be prepared because I don't think this game will be 2d. Anyone expecting HD sprites with 3S animation should stop thinking like that because it would cost a shit ton of money.

It's called next gen son.

[chunbelievable]

I go boom... I truly truly BELIEVED that this would never happen. Thank you Capcom.

[Shotokan Symphony]

I'm willing to bet that the game engine will be 2d w/ 3d puppet animation ala Rumble Fish, only a lot flashier.

My dick's harder than adamantium right now, by the way.

[Yeton]

I see some people complaining it looks too Americanized (something I'm worried about too) but I quite like what I saw. If the ingame art matches the stuff in the trailer I'll be happy.

[BlackShinobi]

I had to I can't even keep up with the new posts I just decided to skip to the end.

Street Fighter 4. I think I'm going to go to the arcade and put SF$ signs up on every fighting game I see.

STREET FIGHTER 4!!! :lovin:

[TrueSephiroth]

I will admit, Ryu and Ken facially didn't all look that great, especially Ryu...he didn't even look Japanese at all! However...the stylized art which Ultima said looking like Okami was definetly superbly done, it just looked excellent.

Also...everyone seems to have forgotten, that fucking Hadouken was BADASS!!! That should be Ryu's New Shinkuu-Hadouken, drains 70% of your life on hit, and 50% on block!!!

[Dingo]

:lovin:This is really the best news I've heard in a long time; and this game has been a long time coming. I would prefer the game to be done in 2D, but if they could make it work in 3D then more power to them. I'm really curious to see what new gameplay mechanics they'll work into Street Fighter IV though; I'm just glad to know that once it comes out that the other Street Fighter games won't bite the dust in tourneys (I know a lot of people hate 3S and what not, which that is your opinion, but 3S didn't phase out ST so I'm hoping SF4 doesn't phase out any of those as I still enjoy them competitively). All I can say is good show Capcom :tup:, don't disappoint.

I hate those over-stylized trailers that obviously are nothing like the game. Let's see some in-game assets, people!

[bridgypoo]

So worth arguing with this one chick to use the internet at the college library.

Yay, I can't wait to hear more about it. :3

[ssjevot]

:lovin:This is really the best news I've heard in a long time; and this game has been a long time coming. I would prefer the game to be done in 2D, but if they could make it work in 3D then more power to them. I'm really curious to see what new gameplay mechanics they'll work into Street Fighter IV though; I'm just glad to know that once it comes out that the other Street Fighter games won't bite the dust in tourneys (I know a lot of people hate 3S and what not, which that is your opinion, but 3S didn't phase out ST so I'm hoping SF4 doesn't phase out any of those as I still enjoy them competitively). All I can say is good show Capcom :tup:, don't disappoint.

People hate 3rd Strike? What the hell, I love Super Turbo and 3rd Strike equally, they're both great games in their own ways.

[Supremo]

lol, Ryu's face in the trailer looks like Balrog's...

Awesome news though

[Flip Ninja]

I'm entertained by the "be prepared" tagline. Surely the last 10 years have prepared me enough?

[ssj2jeff]

holy shit. i just came on srk to check out the broward thread and saw this. almost had a heart attack. fucking 17 pages in one morning.

[Freakshow]

I didn't want to do this but what the Hell....

In before server crash :lol: :lol: :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

Seriously, this is great news. If it's PS3 exclusive, I'll even let the whole "no more BC" thing slide for this game. This next year waiting is gonna be very interesting. That trailer looks bad ass and if that is the art style that is used in game wow.

Now all we need is the long rumored Darkstalkers vs Guilty Gear game and we'll all be set

[urienMETALdick]

if the trailer is indicative of the game then i guess we'll be seeing parries and tech throws. in the trailer u can see ken parrying an attack(the screen actually slows down a bit) and teching a throw.

[Z!M]

good god the FG forums have blown up!!!! 10 years and now SF4 is on the way.

[!WB!]

The trailer sucked. Anatomy was ALL wrong...:rolleyes:

Just kidding. That kicked ass big time. So when do we get the info so we can all start bitching about how its not gonna be exactly how we want it?

[BigMex]

I dunno what to say until I see some actual footage. If it is true then it's the first sign of the apocalypse. THE END IS NEAR, REPENT SINNERS!!!

[wilsonhall]

You guys better be prepared because I don't think this game will be 2d. Anyone expecting HD sprites with 3S animation should stop thinking like that because it would cost a shit ton of money.


It will cost them a considerable amount regardless if it's 2D sprite animation or 3D animation. They have to create a whole new set of assets, and there's nothing available for them to reuse if they are making a new game from the ground up. And I don't know why people think doing 3D would be any cheaper for them. This isn't like VF or Tekken where a majority of the mocap and game engine design foundation was done several generations ago. Infact doing an all new 3D game, with new assets and new game engine would probably be more expensive.

Dude, thanks, man, we all own you.

Major props!

Awesome news...

Thanks to Mr. Wizard confirming this...!!!

Trailer (if someone hasn't done it already):
http://youtube.com/watch?v=3ef28cpXs5c

Hope to see some more juicy bits later :D

[Commander]

Yes, and Ken's chin was all sorts of strange looking, but... I do not care, that trailer will tide me over until we see game footage.

Ken's chin WAS weird looking... I hope they go with the Japanese art style and the American comic hero style for the in game graphics... maybe touch up this trailer a bit in retrospect after finishing more of the game, although it is still amazing. (I assume it will be the opening.) Ryu looked a little different too - almost mean, when he should be calm. I guess I'll just chalk it up to focus.

[Einlanzer]

calm down! calm down! dont get a big DICK!!!

/tourettes guy.

[Lebowsk1]

Ignore the 3rd Strike haters, I mean wtf, there probably wouldnt be a SFIV if it wasnt for Daigo vs Justin.

EDIT: Street Fighter IV!!!!

[Arsenal]

That hadouken was the greatest thing I've seen all year. Ken's shoryuken was badass too (fucking ripping the ground while starting up? Too buff).

[elhandro]

I came out of SRK retirement just to say.............

Holy SHit! That trailer was badass, capcom am delivered.

I seriously am a grown man salvating over a game as if I were a kid.

El ( Back in the mix )

[tataki]

I will admit, Ryu and Ken facially didn't all look that great, especially Ryu
i agree but maybe its cuz they are old and fat now... if you look closely you can see ryu's beer belly

[Kamui]

The 3D models are definitely based off of Akiman's old artwork. It looks like the attached image was used as a reference (mayhaps?). The symbols on Ryu's gloves are included on the 3D model as well (I've never seen them before in any other artwork, has anyone else?). I would be more than happy if Akiman is involved with this project.

[JAMMAR]

Most users ever online was 794, Today at 10:26 AM.

This is a great day for SRK isn't it?

I hope they are committed to the tradition of more than just one version of SF out. They need to try out all the new things they thought up of right now, so that when the next one comes they will dramatically improve after feedback.

[Sacr3D]

Ive been on srk for 3 hours today now!

[goodm0urning]

This is EXACTLY how I feel right now. (http://eeuauaughhhuauaahh.ytmnd.com/)

Good eye; I have that exact pic as my background on my PSP. The symbols on the gloves reminded me exactly of the Akiman Pic.

Hey, if they make Ryu's Sprite (yes, I'm rooting for 2-D here) look exactly like Akiman's artwork. I'm seroiusly game, Ryu needs to look badass in here, this is where he should be in his elite lvl, or pretty damn near it.

I'm so stoked, I'm completely looking forward to it...damn...I wished it was already late 2008 :sad:

[Leebee Link]

Even though i didn't like Ryu's face much, that hadouken at the end was so incredibly epic... especially the way Ryu was roaring.

omg

[Demon_Hyo]

Oh my....

[Trygon]

I just want all the characters in one game with Parry still there. Thats all I ask for.

[Sacr3D]

I like it ... can you tell ? :P

i havnt posted on SRK ina min but DAMN i cant wait for SF4 man fighting games is makin a come back in 2008 baby!!!

[shinamano]

Can I say #### YEAH!

[sixtymhz]

UDON better be doing the graphics.

[bafiaris13]

they couldnt make a better video..

speechless..i hope the game comes out even better..

this is history..

[Shinto]

Rep for lurkers fuck yea!

[Shin_Kensou]

bout damn time they came thru wit this game man...shit!!

i REALLY hope this game doesnt flop...it'll be the end of man as we know it!

[Akutabi Gamma]

UDON better be doing the graphics.

Umm...no plz cuz that'd be like having a KoF with all the sprites drawn Falcoon style...

[funkymusic]

Every single person that said. "Man the day SF4 gets announced ill (INSERT HORRIBLE THING)" is really thinking about that right now like..... fuck

Oh gawd no.

Hot damn, now I have no choice but to play fighting games again. :sad: Vega better be in it and barlong.

[The Granby]

Next issue of TIME magazine.


Ryu on front cover.

"I'm back bitches!"

[Aztec Warrior]

Its about damn time!

[Kamui]

Negative, they really shouldn't have anything to do with this game. Udon is cool for the comic books, but they aren't nearly as capable as some of the core artists involved with the later SF games. SF isn't SF without Akiman.

UDON better be doing the graphics.

[bafiaris13]

wow...

thanks..

[SIL]

the trailer is awesome. the dynamic is incredible. i hope the gameplay will be 2d :lovin:

Thank you Capcom. All I need now is Duke Nukem Forever and I can die peacefully. :tup:

You, and probably everybody else alive right now will die before DNF release.

Still the announcement and the trailer both rocked tonight.

You know I've never believed in you, but please, god, let this game be 2d!

I ought to be a hater for no reason for all the years of jibber jabber from idiot posters clamoring for years. But this could actually be good. So did they get the sf developers team back, or did they higher a new one?

Seriously. I'm reading through the original thread, and just loling at all the people who

A.) Said it was never gonna happen
B.) Called it fake AFTER it was announced
and
C.) Already trying to hate on it. (WILL NOT LIVE UP TO EXPECTATIONS LOL)

[Master Chibi]

829 fucking people.

God damn.

Oh snap! About time!!! :amazed:

[baby jesus]

im droping out of college on release day that is if its 2d

[Spirit Juice]

I'm really surprised they're actually going to do it. I'm sure in Japan it'll do all right, but I doubt it'll make a profit or much of one in America. IMO it's a pretty ballsy move of Capcom, considering the fighting game market in Japan is completely dominated by Guilty Gear and doujin fighters.

Most of the team that made SF games have been split apart and work on other projects or have left the company entirely. The harsh reality is that the game may greatly disappoint. Who knows though... if we're lucky it'll have a bigger budget than CFJ. :rofl:

I certainly hope Capcom does extensive lok testing before the game is released so it doesn't turn out a broken mess like SFIII series did... but that all depends on how much they really care about the game. Here's hoping it turns out good.

[Luigi-Bo 87]

im droping out of college on release day that is if its 2d

I just might do the same.:rofl: Gonna play for food and shit.:looney:

[sleepyguy69]

I've been talking in hushed tones and trying not to get overexcited about this for about a week now, and its finally, actually happening. This is going to be SRK's version of the Kennedy assasination. Everyone will remember, for years to come, what they were doing when they heard Street Fighter 4 was announced. SRK History happened here, and we were all apart of it.

[Shadowcuz]

this better be good

[SiLLiEMutAfuKA]

Holy FUCKING SHIT.
I can't believe it's happening, I really can't believe.
This shit is insane, I thought it was going to be another let down but damn.
I don't care what kind of game it will turn out to be, but I'm still happy.

It's...full of stars......

oh,...and the requisite orgasim statement.

Ryu looks top tier.

[str[e]ak]

I need hard evidence before I will start running outside naked.

YES! Street Fighter 4!!!!!!! I'm going to go outside, run around naked and have sex with the first thing I see now.

^ :rofl: you two are my heroes.

honestly, i think parrying got a little out of hand in 3rd strike.

though, i want parrying to remain, but more like its CvS2 counterpart.

OMFG! STREET FIGHTER IV! :lovin::lovin:

I think it'll be the reverse: so-so popularity in Japan, BIG popularity in the US. The game can be a shitty Marvel Nemesis clone and still get more play over here than in Japanland, and that's what really matters businesswise.

[CptMunta]

I looks incredible!

I hope it looks like that in game!

I was SOOOOOOOO wrong

[ReXXXSoprano]

Sonic in Brawl. And now this. Well it had to happen sooner or later. Humanity will be wiped from existance now. It was a nice run, but the end is here. Now if the game looked and played like the trailer. Dreams, only dreams.

[Corner-Trap]

..........*I'm so fucking speechless*

On another note, I'd REALLY like to know how the Japanese are reacting to this.

Damnit, why did I graduate already, now I can't drop out on Release day! Well there's always graduate school....


Its weird because I was talking to my friends and said, "Man if SF4 gets announced I will quit drinking for 2 months"

:sad: Day 1: my guiness is so lonely, only 59 more days to go..

[OmNiExiZt]

Why is this game called "A New Beginning"? I thought "A New Generation" allready covered that? Oh well, at least I'll get to see this game before I die.
