The latest rumour to swirl around the ankles of the gaming giant that will be Street Fighter IV is that it will not only be PS3-exclusive but that its release date clash with PS3-exclusive Metal Gear Solid IV. SPOnG's here to crush it.
It is being suggested that Street Fighter IV will be released on June 12th, the launch date that has just been announced for Konami's stealthy shooter. It will also, like MGS4, be PS3 exclusive according to speculation. The rumour has done the rounds of a couple of French sites. Jeuxvideo.fr tells us, "We have just noticed that the editor just listed Street Fighter IV on the platform dedicated to the European press. One of the details is that the title is only announced on PS3, for the 12 June 2008." - Via Spong
The Street Fighter series has a long history, but which are the seven best games the franchise has yet offered to gamers?
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
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.
hmmm i very much doubt ALL the info, especially the release date, Capcom said it will be in arcades from summer so there is no way they could possibly have it on the consoles by June 12th.
Oh and exclusive? no likely... its Capcom... mind you, their Rep said ""We haven't even announced any home console versions for the game yet" so its not completely out of the question.
besides the fact that 360 controller is a complete failure for fighters at least in my opinion(d pad has webbed feet making it function almost like a 3rd stick and you can't really enjoy a fighter on a console playing with a stick) i doubt this is possible. Capcom really shouldnt be foolish trying to sneak their way in with mgs4. Honestly this game can go 360 exclusive for all i care, if its coming out within 2 weeks of mgs4 its not going to get any attention from me. Plus from what i have seen of SF i have been completely unimpressed. Most anticipated fighters for the yr remain as Tekken 6 and Soul Calubur 4 and thats only because of darth vader. would have been nice to use yoda too though so i'll prob rent on 360 or maybe they will be kind enough to offer a demo for both versions so i can decide if its really worth buying
Maybe it's Capcom trying to make it up to ps users, but it's Capcom they screw us over everyday
when i was about 7 i used to play a 2d street fighter with my uncles
i didnt really know wnat to do so i kept pressing any button really fast and kept button mashing. sometimes i was able to beat them!!!
Street Fighter Alpha EX on the ps1 was really good. there was a underwater guy who can use bombs. what was his name, he has blu cloth?
but now i am in a postition wer i am so ingormant and stubborn that every game sucks other than japanese rpg games and japanese games
Are you guys insane ?
