I hope the 5th character is captain sawada from street fighter the movie '1994'

NegativeCreep4273823d ago

are you insane or delusional???

you're seriously excavating the Tar Pits of Street Fighter lore material now by mentioning the so-called Sawada.

I honestly hope you're drunk right now!

I'm laughing at this way harder than I should be

They are milking this now. This is pathetic.

Make Street Fighter 5, not 13 differenct versions of SF4.

It's lazy, arrogant, ignorant and foolish to think people will be a "New" game just because of 5 random new characters.

That isn't a "NEW" game...that is a patch, or DLc or update.

Can't believe people aren't demanding SF5 and will actually play this crap.

SF4 has been out for a long time now and they just keep charging you $60 over and over again for adding a few characters here and there.

People are stupid because they pay $60 for DLC when most pay $5-10

Calm down they aren't charging $60 for it. It's $40 which is ok considering you get new characters, new stages, rebalanced gameplay, new modes and complete DLC costumes.

For people that already own SSF4 or SS4:AE it's only a $15 digital upgrade. I think that's an awesome deal.

So 2... of the 4 confirmed people appear in a picture and that somehow implies someone else in the picture is the fifth person? Talk about a reach.

Majin-vegeta3823d ago

Wait but isn't the 5th character someone who has never been in a SF game before?

admiralvic3823d ago

I am pretty sure it was never been playable before.

Hicken3823d ago

So it's me, then? Well that's gonna be OP.

dogsmokespipe3822d ago

Did you look at the picture? It shows a large portion of the cast of SF4, plus Retsu. It's pretty convincing.

admiralvic3822d ago

There are 44 fighters in Ultra Street Fighter IV and this picture shows 19 of them... since when was less than half a "large portion"? Furthermore, these are all (save Retsu) fairly staple characters that have appeared several times throughout several titles. Even Hugo came from Final Fight, appeared in SF III / IV, plus the cross over titles SVC and SF X Tekken.

UUUUU3823d ago

Since the fifth character is unrecognizable then it should be Rets. You stupid fool.

DVAcme3822d ago (Edited 3822d ago )

If that's the picture, it IS Retsu! You can tell because of the upward-slanted eyebrows. This is a HELL of a surprise, that character hasn't been seen in 26 years!

Edit: here's some pictures for comparison:

Looking back to 2014 and Ultra Street Fighter IV

Jahanzeb writes: "It’s easy to make fun of fighting game revisions/expansions, but there’s no denying each entry bolstered the fighting roster and gameplay substantially, particularly with the swansong entry Ultra Street Fighter IV."

'After the release of Street Fighter III: Third Strike in 1999, Capcom took the cast of world warriors on a bit of a detour with the Street Fighter Zero/Alpha prequel series.'.

Alpha was released in 1995.

Back in the Time Capcom was releasing full games.
