No platform exclusive characters in 360 and PS3 SF4

18
There will be no console exclusive characters in the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of Street Fighter IV, the game's producer has confirmed to VideoGamer.com.

Speaking in an interview from Leipzig Games Convention last week, producer Yoshinori Ono said that he didn't believe platform exclusive characters was "fair".

Ono-san said: "Well this is just my policy, but I don't want to give an exclusive character for any particular console. And that applies to downloadable characters as well. Because it's not very fair, when you think about this as a board game or a tool. Hidden characters? If we're going to talk about hidden characters they won't be hidden any more!"

1 - GOOD.
there needs to be a port that is the SAME on BOTH systems! I'm tired of the corporations (I'm looking at you M$) milking people for extra characters and costumes (palate) swaps with XBOX live points a few months down the road. It's garbage.

I own both systems and can say I will be picking this up for PS3 on day one. Lord knows you can't be effective with on street fighter with that XBOX controller...

2 - I hope this will be a classic.
I hope fei long is in this one.

One of the reasons I loved playing street fighter II on my sega genesis back then was because of the variety of characters from different parts of the world. From E.Honda to Dee Jay to
Balrog to Ken to Ryu to Dhalism, etc. Each character was different and I appreciated each of their genuine likenesses.

Nice, it will make the games equal in the Character aspect. And neither side will feel cheated.

Off Topic: So I got a comment reported as off topic for telling someone to go to the open zone, for comment and Choice of words. How does that work.

They should add Sakura. It would be interesting to what she looks like when now in the Street Fighter story line. I mean she probably graduated from high school so she probably won't be wearing her school uniform. Put in Guy his killer combos were a beast back in the days. Please put Dan even if it's just for comic relief or to annoy people and keep his super taunt. And if there is a character that needs to be added its Shen Long even if he is suppose to be dead. Oh and for the love of God put SHIN AKUMA.

10 - Why does this article..
continue to come through..........I am not even sure why people thought that it would be console specific characters to begin with. Anyhoo......it is all about Ken and Akuma.

Also why are people saying " (insert favorite charter) will own noobs"...I mean who brags about beating newbies? I mean a vet is suppose to be a "noob".
