British ‘Street Fighter IV’ Pro Problem X Wants To Push the Scene Forward

Britain's best right now wants competitive Street Fighter playing to evolve, and he's ready to lead from the front line.

gamer78043068d ago

its a shame there will be less mid-low skill competition when street fighter V arrives due to not being on as many platforms.

die_fiend3068d ago

It's also a shame that of the 2 big players, 1 failed to make a console that appeals to 2/3 of gamers, which is what you're seeing here.

Sitdown3068d ago

So it's not possible to have something appeal to you, but you still choose not to purchase it?

Shineon3067d ago

3 big players, would gaming be better if we only had 1 big player,?

die_fiend3067d ago

3 big players?

If you mean Nintendo, I'm not sure they're a big player in this generation. If you hadn't noticed, the Wii U didn't do all that well. And no, gaming would be worse with 1 player, what a silly remark.

'So it's not possible to have something appeal to you, but you still choose not to purchase it?'. Depends on your financial situation I suppose, I'm sure this can happen.

gamer78043067d ago

Eh? What u r seeing is paid exclusivity. Timed I'm fine with, I can wait, but that's not the case here

How Street Fighter IV Saved 2D Fighting Games (Ft. Maximilian Dood)

After Street Fighter II released in in 1991, it caused a fighting game explosion, both in arcades and in home consoles. But, as the decade ended, and arcades were failing, so too were 2D Fighting games. This is how Street Fighter IV completely revitalized the genre.

I'd say Blazblue helped too. Didn't care for Street Fighter 4, but Blazblue was amazing during that time. Sad that the series kind of went downhill after the first 2 or 3 games though.

DarXyde323d ago

BlazBlue was phenomenal. Platinum'd Calamity Trigger because I loved it so much. I remember buying Continuum Shift back in the day at launch for like $40. They did have DLC characters (Valkenhayne, Makoto, and Platinum at the time) and it came out to just a tad more than it would at full price. Didn't mind at all.

Great fighting game.

Snookies12323d ago

Continuum Shift was definitely my favorite. Spent way too many hours on that game, haha... Had the counters for days with Hakumen.

DarXyde323d ago

I really like Makoto, Valkenhayne, and Hazama. Super fun characters

Terry_B323d ago

Valkenhayn ..just sayin'

Terry_B324d ago

BlazBlue was the much better, more technical game..and a real 2D Fighting Game after all. But yes, since it was a big name..the characters were still popular and the game itself was good, SFIV indeed helped a lot. However, I am pretty sure the much better-selling Mortal Kombat 9 would have been done without SFIV as well..and that one truly helped to make the fighting game genre in general more popular again.

Ryuha1234h323d ago

You’re sound dumb. Blazblue was not better than sf4. You’re just saying that because you’re a street fighter hater.

Task failed successfully

A SF Hater eh? Fight me in SF 2,3 4 or 5 and you will regret that stupid comment ;)

gold_drake323d ago (Edited 323d ago )

eyyy max xD

one of the very few streamers i can actually watch without it being cringe and awful ha.

GhostScholar323d ago

The content of IV was severely lacking when it launched. It got better over time.

they botched SFV so bad, just start over, make a new version with proper single player mode and fully fleshed out with support for all of the consoles this time.

King91655d ago (Edited 1655d ago )

Gamer7804@ they already did kinda it call sf5ae it help sf5 sell like another 2 million copies.

Teflon021654d ago

SFV is actually great now. Bunch of modes, bunch of characters, alot of stages, not sure what else there is to even complain about. Costume MTX? Not a issue imo, I don't get what I don't want anyways

gamer78041654d ago

botched launch, and they launched only on one console and currently after a long time still on one console.

Enigma_20991655d ago

Did you see how Ultra and the Collection sold? We don't need to convince Nintendo of anything. Just put it on the console.PHYSICALLY.

King91655d ago

Enigma_2099@ they probably have to make a new sf game just for the switch they probably will need Nintendo to help fund it just like sony help fund sf5.

PhoenixUp1655d ago

You’re not seeing Street Fighter V come to other platforms besides PC because Sony helped co-fund the game so it’s staying only on PS4 & PC

NapalmSanctuary1654d ago (Edited 1654d ago )

Don't know why anybody would want SF5 on Switch. Especially if they owned a Switch.

rainslacker1655d ago

That doesn't makes sense. Is Nintendo saying that Capcom can't publish the game on the system because it's users don't want the game? if so, that's really stupid of them, because why should they care?

Nintendo isn't saying such things of course.

Capcom shouldn't pass the buck. If they don't want to make more SF games on the Switch, then just say so, and say why.

If they want Nintendo to fund the project, then they are the ones that need to convince Nintendo to give them money.
