Street Fighter IV update: official info versus "leaked" details |
Ó
We've been waiting quite a while for more information about Capcom's upcoming next-gen beat-em-up, Street Fighter IV, and now we get not only some official information, but also some supposedly-leaked details. This includes the two new screenshots of the game in action you see above, with Ryu and Ken duking it out.
First, let's look at the official details, as released by Capcom itself:
- The game will still have the same 2D perspective, but with additional 3D camera flourishes (in keeping with the stylized 3D visual style).
- Four original Street Fighter characters are confirmed to make their return, namely Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li and Dhalsim.
- The six-button controls are back, and with its return a mostly-intact moveset with a lot of new additions.
- New locations, new special moves, new game systems.
- Street Fighter IV's visual style has more to do with making it look good, rather than making it photo-realistic. Art direction is key.
- Street Fighter IV runs at 60 frames per second.
- Online Play is included.
- The game takes place after Super Street Fighter II Turbo and before Street Fighter III.
- Character roster will be made out of many old characters and entirely new ones.
- Two new female characters are making their debut in Street Fighter IV.
- The stage in the current screenshots is Chun-Li's stage from Street Fighter II.
- Parry System is replaced with Saving/Revenge system. No details about this yet.
- Supers are still there, along with a new auto-combo system called Ultras. It's like a custom combo, but with predetermined moves.
- Shen Long may appear in the game. Yes, THAT Shen Long.
- Platforms aren't confirmed yet, but with online play, it's a safe bet that Xbox 360 and PS3 are two of the consoles. Capcom may or may not be putting out test machines in Japan arcades in Q2 next year.

the game looks awesome. I wish Vega will be in, he is the coolest character.
I hope the control is nice and balanced.
interesting indeed!
which way would sf4 go?
the sf3 way which has blocks parry techs etc or the arcade type way like those of marvel vs capcom 1 and 2?
my prefered choice is the mvsc way! or if they make chose the sf3 way please make another capcom vs game for the PSN.
why bash a game that just in its alpha stages?
if you want 2d, go ahead and play street fighter 2 xxxxxx and or wait until ssf2thdr comes out some time next month.
give sf4 a chance to show itself what it can be.
capcom should be by now good at making these fighting games, after all they already have done tons of them. the ex series was done by arika not capcom and i consider it slightly better than those alpha/zero (except the dual battle alpha modes).
yeah dont forget about the Street Fighter EX series, i just hope it doesnt end up like that.
would be nicer to hear these infomation from capcom, of course i wana see capcom upload some screenshots themselves rather then some 3rd party, how can that proven that it's the actual info?
im gonna ignore this article until i hear wat capcom says.
