yes! STREET FIGHTER 4 is coming ~ destination unknown

Either ryu see's some thing we don't or he's getting excited 

Seriously, you don't see that huge male ballet dancer's coin purse there? WTF she looks like Chun He.

I see it is chun-li a tranny wtf

I'm a little skeptical on how well SFIV will play. Judging from the first link, it looks like the animations for attacks take too long, especially Ryu's sweep. The problem that happens a lot with 3D graphics is that they tend to add too much animation for things which just makes them end up looking unnatural. In this case, it might cause some response delay during the gameplay, but we'll see. That new Abel guy looks kinda cool, but that new chick looks like a dude.

Looks like she's trying hard to contain a bad case of weresnatch with a tiny pair of panties.  She either needs to trim the hedges or switch to boxers.

BTW, the new KOF is looking f*ckING PARADISE, so the death of Street Fighter isn't so bad.

Truth.

[Keranu]

It looks like my theory on SFIV not being responsive due to the excessive 3D animation might be truthful. I skimmed through this IGN hands on article and took special notice to this:

"My first play test was with my old -- oh what did I call her back then -- that's right, my old hoochie-mama, Chun Li. I was a bit surprised from the start in that she felt slower than I remember her late life SFII counterpart being. In particular, her wall rebound was slow and hard to pull off. I also couldn't get her to do her down kick on enemies. Aside from that, Chun Li still felt like Chun Li, complete with her spinning bird kick and tons of combo opportunities involving her lightning fast legs."

Game still looks like it could be fun though.

Slow?

Sounds like my kind of fighter.

If only I could pick the moves from menus instead of having to press buttons in real time...

Wow, there isn't a Street Fighter RPG, is there? I'm a bit suprised one hasn't been made.

[Joe Redifer]

No, not an RPG, but a fighting game where you select from a deep menu system instead of pressing buttons to do moves.  Maybe some cards could be involved as well.  Nobody likes having to react in real time.  Menu systems is all the world needs.

I'd be all over it, if they'd include the use of twenty eight sided dice.

I would love that. I always wanted to make a wrestling game like that.

Initial D for GBA is like that. Semi-real-time menu based racing. I really like that game, and I'm sure there must be more like it. I don't know what they might be though.

There actually is one for PCE. I think it might be that one Monster one, but there was another one that was anime style. I'll have to look for it because it was really cool actually.

Monster Pro Wrestling

The game is actually quite shitty.

[Keranu]

Ok Maniac Pro Wrestling was the other game I was thinking of, but they're both RPGs. Maniac is a lot harder to understand with all of it's Japanese, but Monster is much easier but is kinda cheesy becuase it determins who attacks by who can make the rolling number counter stop at a higher number. Still very interesting games that I'd like to play more of. I think the PCE has an RPG for every kind of game.

[GUTS]

You guys realize SFIV isn't coming out until sometime this summer right?  So they're probably going to, I don't know, improve the gameplay and tighten things up a bit between now and then.  That's just a wacky theory I have though, I could be wrong!
