The Big ass Street Fighter IV thread

[O-Fear]

You know what will be cool? to see this dude (below) from Rival Schools (or some other fighters from that game) featuring in SF4

I mean RS has a badass fighters and I personly prefer to see reused fighters instead of some lame new fighters who has no story and their design is boring and most of the time ugly *cough*Abel*cough*

What do you think?

First pic of him reminded me of some rugby/soccer player. Looks somewhat generic to me, but I'll wait for videos and crap.

Alright, Officially, I'm slumped. When Ono meant ST, he really meant it, Chunny is all ST. Charge fireball, charge super, charge ultra too. They even added her now crappy overhead kick from Alpha (it was the bomb in Alpha 2, but sucked completely in A3). A COMPLETE step back from what we've seen in CvS2 and Third Strike.

The visuals make me want to puke. The art style is disgusting.

Maybe I just need to see it in motion, or maybe it really IS that bad.

They shouldn't bring anymore new characters in, what they should do is bring in characters from Street Fight III and Alpha.

Agreed. Or at least bring in more familiar faces before introducing these shallow new designs.

 

Oh and SF1 too. I'm hooked on my Eagle. Retsu not so much but I don't like any of the other SF ninja types. I don't count Vega as a ninja so yeh..

I don't understand why these legendary fighting game franchises decide to make new characters 10 years into the franchise when they have a list of characters used in Alpha, III, and Zero that were basically left untouched. They don't need new characters, they have plenty of characters to mess around with, I mean, Cody would look great in this game, or even Rolento...

Psst, not everyone liked III when it came out, not everyone liked Alpha (Zero) when it came out either. Eventually Alpha (Zero) added nearly everyone in A3, while in SFIII just added Ryu, Ken, Gouki and Chun.

 

I know how you feel, I want more III chars, some characters would be viable due to the storyline, Alex and Urien come to mine and some don't like Lee Bros, Ibuki, Makoto.

looks good to me. I didn't really see any of the new gameplay mechanics in any of those vids but the straight up brawling looks like fun. new characters are the suck.

[BlackKnight]

I stand by my notion that the motion and movement in SF4 is what makes it look badass. Personally I think more and more that this is the perfect visual style for the game each time I see it. I can't wait.

[Devia Eleven]

Is it just me?, or do those videos never load?

I watched em all earlier tonight. prolly heavy traffic right now?

I like how the super combos got that cutscene or cinematic vibe to it.

[solidius23]

im liking the gameplay it really is mostly 2d with the 3d background and somewhat 3d aspect of the supers. looks pretty BA im also likeing the look of the new samurai showdown as well.

I have mixed feelings about the "dash" technique. It seems the "dash" movement doesn't cover any distance. I think I prefer the "run" technique but of course we haven't played it yet.
