yes! STREET FIGHTER 4 is coming ~ destination unknown

[Tatsujin]

i hope NEC-Ave considers to bring this to the pc engine.

I really hope it's not Street Fighter EX 3 and instead is more like SF2 Turbo but with all the characters and GIGANTIC HD 2D artwork.

Its 3D, and from my vague understanding of how Capcom works these days, almost certainly American developed. Also if it isn't coming out until 2009, as they are saying, then that's way too much lead time for a project that actually has a solid idea behind it. Virtually all (good) fighting games are made in less than 9 months.

Street Fighter is dead. I'm not whining about it, rather its just a simple statement. Its OK. There are plenty of 90s fighters to last forever.

At least we have the HD SFII to look forward to.

Too bad it probably won't add any frames of animation.

What I don't understand is why they don't make 2-D games anymore  They are obviously more fun.

Making 2D games has recently become illegal.  Everyone hates 2D games.

If by "they", you mean Capcom then the reasons are basically that they lost interest/staff and pretty much pulled out of the arcades. There is so much more money in crap like Resident Evil, Devil May Cry, etc.

But...the upcoming Sengoku Basara X is 2D, a fighter, and from Capcom (Japan even). It might not suck.

If by "they" you mean anyone in particular there are still 2D games being made all the time, even some that aren't on DS. Even some fighters. Arcana Heart, Hokuto no Ken, Melty Blood, KOF XII was just announced a couple of weeks ago.

I just finished Mother 3 last week. f*cking great, that.

Also: Contra for DS. That should be fantastic.

yeah..our small commune here is soon going to face the same experience like in "Fahrenheit 451".

lol, I wouldn't doubt it

Well, it won't be EX3 because there already is an EX3. It was a direct-to-PS2 release and nobody gave a shit.

It won't be HD 2D though. It will be 3D. The whole point of the trailer was to show you the graphical direction it's going in.

The trailer got me excited!




 

[Keranu]

I thought the trailer looked pretty ghey, but hopefully the game is good.

Personally I don't see why Capcom would make it 3D since they're probably well aware that Street Fighter is for a 2D fanbase. I definitely got a feeling that this won't be coming to the arcades though.

[Kitsunexus]

Now that I finaly got home form work (early!  ) I will review this trailer.

GOOD: The music was awesome. The characters were drawn and animated well.

BAD: Nothing about this movie except for Ryu and Ken was even REMOTELY Street Fighter. It's all Matrix-y wire-fu shit.

I was excited for this, now I honestly couldn't care less.

Street Fighter is dead, Capcom is a zombie.

[Turbo D]

I didn't even waste my time watching the trailer

If you like hybrid nuskool Big Beat/DNB it's worth just leaving on in the background.

[guyjin]

That's a pretty bold statement based on a teaser trailer with no actual gameplay footage.  At least wait until some actual gameplay is shown before whining about it.

but if we didn't whine about things, this board would be dead due to lack of posts.
