Haha, yes. It would be so great. Not the game or announcement itself, just the reactions. Maybe one of the most outlandish and impossible thing to happen in this cycle. I'm just glad SF5 exists and that things are getting interesting. My PS4 and PC are ready for it.
things are sure salty in here
salt can be delicious with food!

Dbz xenoverse too (and it seems promising)
Did I miss something here? Is the next DMC going to be exclusive as well?

Vindictive has nothing to do with it, good news is good news. SFV can still succeed PS and PC exclusive, Tekken is simply now in a better place than it was before.

Yeah, it looks like a half step on top of the exclusivity.
Especially Capcom

It's sad seeing how quickly Sony is abandoning their #4TheGamers campaign.
Glad this is happening. I was really hoping they would go to 5 for the new generation, rather than releasing hyper mega ultra or whatever, and it looks like they are.
Though watching the trailer, I thought the apparently new bits were from SF4. None of that footage looked like it would be SF5. I was completely wrong, it looks like. They're just using the same artstyle and it looks the same I guess.

Should have ditch 3ds & PS4 entirely and chase after the mobile cash.
This guy, it's almost winter. You should stock that salt somewhere, we could use it to clear roads

Dragons Dogma 2 will probably never happen and since it sold something like 8 million less than SF4, while sucking not a big deal.
Can you imagine all the kids exchanging their Ones for a PS4 AFTER Xmas now? Microsoft could have one AND technically lost November after this announcement.

If that's the case then how big is Street Fighter really outside of that niche scene? Who ever says "we can't develop this amazing selling game because we have no money" when the game should pay for itself and then some?
The producer of the series teased an unexpected announcement (rumored to not be the SF announcement) and Capcom filed a new trademark for DMC yesterday.
Their mobile games were all failures and they had to end the service of most of them. Gaist Crusher was a massive failure that Capcom seemed to have heavily invested in and was hoping to turn into a childrens franchise like Youkai Watch.
I believe at one point earlier in the year that their fiscal report showed that they didn't have much money left for the size of the company. Luckily the annual Monster Hunter games always give them a huge boost of cash.
The closest comparison would be something like Monster Hunter right? Massive PSP franchise jumps exclusively to 3DS/WiiU

The reason our industry still is in this crappy spot is that most people no matter which "side" not only eat this stuff up but even relieve platform holders of loads of PR work for free, not realising that they as consumers do not benefit from these silly shenanigans in any way, shape or form.
Get your console war shit outta here

Capcom doesn't seem to be interested in investing any significant amount of money into a game that is not Monster Hunter or Resident Evil- it seems like almost every AAA they've done outside of those lately (ie Dead Rising, Deep Down) is moneyhatted by somebody. And Sony's really the only partner who makes sense for a game like this.
Sigh, nothing delusional about finding another "but how can Sony afford that?!" comment hilarious.
They are doing bad yes, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they can't afford to buy exclusivity/finance the development of a game. They still have money, they aren't going anywhere anytime soon. If they can greenlight a new project for one of their studios and fund the development of it then why is it such a strange idea that they'd eventually have gotten a deal like this one? It's the same stuff.

Thanks for the link, didn't get to see the trailer. Hyped for sure, SSIV is my favourite fighting game of all time.
As far as I can tell most of the Japanese publishers are signing up exclusives to one of the three vendors.
I think they've stopped wanting to take up risks on consoles.

Third party exclusives are a thing and they aren't going away.

I thought RE6 sold like 6 million copies. Surely that has to be enough to turn a profit.
They are for me. If there was any doubt before, there definitely isnt now. And I am sure I am not alone.
You are stretching so fucking hard. He is not celebrating the exclusivity.
This is a really nice coup for Sony, but were people really aching for a Street Fighter sequel?
Besides updating the graphics, what gameplay changes would justify them making a sequel so soon?
I would've preferred they port SFIV and made it free to play with option to buy skins. Dragons Drogma or any other new IP would've been a much bigger megaton.

This must be why the head of Xbox Japan resigned. I bet this was the final fucking straw for Redmond. No one expects Xbone to be a serious contender in Japan. They maintain a market there for one reason: keep the dozen or so Japanese IPs still vital in the west on Xbox. And then this goober goes a lets Sony buy exclusivity. Right after MS paid Evo who knows how much to make Xbone the official tournament console!
He's lucky to still have all 10 fingers. What a disaster.

Raises another point; I wonder if they'll be any more punctual with the PC release this time around. Either way, it'll be my platform of choice for sure.

When consoles are basically dead in Japan while mobile is booming I sorta understand.

They only really need the first version. I doubt that a significant number of players will switch platforms if SFV2nd is released on Xbox One.

Will wait for the Street Fighter edition PS4 to come out then.
I mean, maybe? The issue is more that Capcom has been noted to have some insane sales expectations for its key franchises. I recall the DmC one being totally ridiculous, considering how the game turned out.

They'll probably release the game on PC in February, and the online components in May. ;-)
