Brazilian gaming blog Blogeek has apparently gotten big news on the upcoming Street Fighter IV game and they are more than happy to share it with the Internets:
"Street Fighter IV runs at 60 frames per second.
Street Fighter IV will have online play.
The game takes place after Super Street Fighter II Turbo and before SFIII. The good news is that the character roster will be made of many old-school brawlers and some entirely new ones. There are two new girls on the list. We will probably not see any SFIII characters."
The Street Fighter series has a long history, but which are the seven best games the franchise has yet offered to gamers?
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.
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.
eyyy max xD
one of the very few streamers i can actually watch without it being cringe and awful ha.
The content of IV was severely lacking when it launched. It got better over time.
In the same interview at EGX 2019 recently, Capcom and Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono responded to a fan question asking if there were any plans to bring the fourth or fifth entries in the series to the Nintendo Switch.
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.
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.
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
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.
Nice find and screens. Sadly, these screens confirm my fears that the game won't be as gritty and stylish as the trailer. It also has a strong childish feel to it right now which I really don't like :(
That looks pretty damn exciting.
this game is gonna own the graphics, gameplay and definetly online imagoine online woooooow =]
looks like Naruto - still there could be a level like in the trailer. Where its night and its raining with lightning.
Edit: still i think its hard to tell without seeing in motion. The dust beneath Ryu's fireball looks quite cool.
I honestly can't say I'm impressed. It looks like Street Fighter EX HD. I liked Street Fighter III's art style and wish they turned that style up a notch, not use the "3d characters in 2d world" approach. And I agree with MK_Red when he says it looks childish...I just wish they went for the mature 2D hand drawn approach.
