Skipping Champion Edition and Turbo SFIV goes Super

I guess it's not gonna be in the arcades.

 

The word on the street is: Cody, Adon & Guy from the Alpha stable.
Juri (Korean) & Hakan (Arab) are the new challengers.
Dudley, Ibuki & Makoto from III.
T. Hawk & Dee Jay from SuperII.

 

well thats the VS series. It's always like that. I just want a speed closer to SSF2Turbo

 

SF = no.

 

I wonder why they're calling it 'Super' when there are already supers in the game....

 

Nostolga

 

Cody and Guy? Yess! Well, if they had to add some characters from SFIII, at least they picked some that don't completely suck.

 

mike hagar ?

 

well Super SF2 didn't have supers...those weren't in until SSF2Turbo

You can tell the jaded SF fans from the excited ones just by what they say about SF IV

 

As a kid i always wondered if the reason they made so many versions of Street Fighter was to sort of "patch" the game. Is this Super stuff really something that couldn't been have done by a DLC?

 

I am not feeling all the SF bashing going on in this thread but I suppose some of it is justified.

Adding new characters and making slight background changes won't cut it for me as far as a new release is concerned. If that is the case it should be a download. To validate it as a release they have to make some real changes.

A new sound track is a must. They have maybe 2-3 tracks that are worthy and memorable and the rest just fade away under the sfx.
Speed is another issue. Although the gameplay speed maybe good for the general gamer there is nothing to keep the more hardcore Beater coming back. If they made the speed setting changable I would be very happy.
Lastly, the difficulty. I can't see much change in difficulty from Medium to Hardest. There has to be a significant change when jumping up so many levels and there just isn't.

As much as I love SFIV (and I really do think its a good game) it could be improved so so much. If they make some of the changes above along with additional characters and such I would most certainly buy it. Who am I kidding, I will be buying it anyway......... :lol:

 

I own SFIV and I suck, I can't seem to get the timings right. I feel more at home with capcom vs marvel 2, which is quite a lot faster and hence more enjoyable SFIV isn't as good as people claim, I think there's a great deal of nostalgia cocaine going on with it.

 

I think your right on the money with that Barcode. Capcom lost there way abit since SF2 and knew they could rekindle alot of people with a trip back in time. Thats the main reason they didn't add too much into SFIV and we are getting a super add on.

 

Arc System Works > Capcom :thumbsup:

And according to Joystiq:

Producer Natsuki Aizawa says while Capcom is looking at the PS3 and Xbox 360 as the main platforms for the expansion, there's still "a chance" it'll come to arcades. "One thing I absolutely want to get across is, we most definitely haven't given up on the arcade Street Fighter IV," she says.

 

Ono Said in interviews it can't

 

"we can't, we'd lose too much money, fans don't understand this is an integral part of the game's engine"
