This is good for the fighting game community, none of this split player base malarky.

dat hardware optimizations too.

 

[Marcel]

Glad Capcom didn't decide to make the next game in Flash.

 

[TheAutomator]

Why are exclusives a good thing? (especially for a multiplatform title like street fighter)

 

[onQ123]

You kidding right?

I'm sure Capcom cut out a chunk of their marketbase for free

Maybe it's that Japanese honor that other guy was going on about?

Yeah. Capcom probably offered them that deal out of sheer generosity.

Do Sony & MS pay for every game that's not on the Wii U? Maybe just maybe they felt it was better to make the game for the PS4 & PC without dealing with the Xbox One.

Except for those that currently only have the other console.

limiting exposure does no good for the FGC
it was bad for KI and it's bad for SF

what good do you think it does?

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

Capcom had some serious liquidity troubles (http://gaminrealm.com/2013/09/10/capcom-152-mil-bank/) some time ago, maybe Sony stepped in and helped.

well, then it's ironic that Sony is helping to fund this if they are indeed given that Sony has been bleeding money for years.

[MastorofPuppetz]

MS saved the development of the game as EA wouldn't front up the rest of it. This is all in "The Final Hours of Titanfall".

True, but pretty sad EA didn;t want to fund it themselves...they would have gotten that money back from PS4 sales....

 

[Wallaby32]

I would rather play SF with the PS4 d-pad over the xbox one's d-pad anyday.

 

[CouchMaster]

you can guess who's who

Bayonetta and Rodin?

That's why they released all SF games on the XB360 including Ultimate.

It's coming out for PC.

 

[casiopao]

Microsoft can keep TR, we got Street Fighter freaking 5.

Yup. Hope that next time other company take big IP's again we won't see shitstorm like the last time which is damn embarrassing. Let the big company use their money to get exclusives to differentiate their console more and we will get more and more games. If Ninty get for example: Ni-Oh, i hope we won't see another Bayonetta 2 debacle, Or Microsoft getting i don't know maybe Witcher 4 for themselves exclusive?

Let all consoles had their own colors.^_^

 

[Fox_Mulder]

dead

 

[Conduit]

Well, it's happening :

http://www.gameondaily.com/street-fighter-5-exclusivity-witness-hypocrisy/

 

[Alcoholikaust]

it's actually exclusive guys

 

[KageMaru]

Wow I never saw that coming, that is a big win for Sony. Hopefully for XBO owners it's only a timed exclusive, makes no sense to leave out the system.

Worldwide the PS4 is outselling the Xbox one about 2 to 1.

Didn't MS recently say they are close to 10 million sold while Sony sold 13.5 million? While I believe it's selling 2:1 in certain markets, the gap certainly isn't that large on a worldwide basis.

 

[MisterR]

Its a lot cheaper to fund development of a game to a platform that never was going to exist than paying to keep a game from a huge demographic because there is almost no advantage for the developer in doing that. The Tomb Raider deal is a great example. The amount of money to make that a full exclusive was something even MS wasn't willing to do. That said they were more than willing to pay for a staggered release so it could be a mindshare exclusive.

and i'm sure this will be a staggered release, with Super Street Fighter coming to Xbox One, and the Xbone doesn't have a huge demographic, at this point.

 

[McLovin]

SF5 is a way better get then TR. But, it's a good balance though since its TR vs Uncharted and KI vs SF5. Two 3rd party, two first party... yeah I'm ok with this.

 

[Yokai]

The arrow is a bad unfunny meme, that is a "how new are you?" meme, quite different.

 

[ViviOggi]

Why are exclusives a good thing? (especially for a multiplatform title like street fighter)

Because certain people care more about their favorite hardware manufacturer's bottom line than their options as consumers.

 

[DirgeExtinction]

It's funny when people say Sony is bleeding money and can't possibly afford to "moneyhat" a game, yet the cries of "omg, moneyhat" are everywhere here.

 

[jmdajr]

JESUS CHRIST

 

[R3TRO]

This got me lmao.

 

[BronsonLee]

"It's ok because MS did it before".

10 year old mentality right here.

I explained the differences so far in those situations a bit earlier. It's seemingly not the same thing this go-round.

 

[Mufausa The 3rd]

Bayonetta and Rodin?

OH THAT'S FUCKED UP LOL

 

[AgentOtaku]

limiting exposure does no good for the FGC
it was bad for KI and it's bad for SF

what good do you think it does?

Exactly. Happy we're getting a new SF. dont think limiting the player base is what Capcom needs to be doing right now :/

 

[HabeeNo]

IM WEAK LOL

 

[MisterR]

They are close to shipping 10 million. Not selling to consumers.

 

[Sephiroth_GR_]

Looks like an Ultra Street Fighter IV on steroids, not like a next-gen game...maybe it's the art-style or it's a Tekken 7 situation (unfinished and unpolished), but yeah first impression is meh...

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

and i'm sure this will be a staggered release, with Super Street Fighter coming to Xbox One, and the Xbone doesn't have a huge demographic, at this point.

Yeah that is very well possible unless Capcom wasn't going to make it and Sony stepped in. It will be all in how Sony phrases stuff tomorrow.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

IIRC Microsoft was using shipped numbers. Sony has been touting sold numbers.

 

[Conceited]

heh

 

[Hurley]

lol

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Amazing

 

[NeoGIF]

HAHAHA!

 

[GeoramA]

I can be wrong, but i wouldn't be surprised if the dev started 2 weeks ago. This seems like a quick thing to test an engine or that sony asked for the announcement.

Didn't the Hadouken Cabs video come out a year ago?

 

[salromano]

We need a reupload, gaiz.

 

[GANGSTERKILLER]

Holy shit!!! Looks aaaaawwwesome!!

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

wow lol

 

[Broly]

People are getting this wrong

its not like Titanfall and Tomb Raider where they where announced on BOTH and THEN later changed
especially when TR was a full story sequel (lol do not attempt to use SFs story )

This is more like what MS did with Killer Instinct

a well known FG franchises ip is now exclusive to Sony being FIRST revealed!
"Not Its on Xbox1 too, actually never mind its not" they didn't build up XBox fans excitement and then take it away

is it a Dick move to an extent yes, both its not the same argument as Tomb Raider

This is nothing like what MS did with Killer Instinct because it's a first party IP.

 

[Lilalaunebaer]

bahaha.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Didn't the Hadouken Cabs video come out a year ago?

That may have been when the deal was made, but it's likely that development on the game itself didn't start until recently.

 

[Stone Ocean]

"It's ok because MS did it before".

Sony too™

 

[RE_Player]

I'm dying here! Hilarious.

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

Ok, this is bullshit for Xbox one owners, not going to lie.

But this is capcom, we know there will be an updated version within 12 months anyway. That will be multiplat.

But yup. Hype.

 

[harSon]

I thought it was going to be at PSX personally. That was the impression I got.

I'm the same as I always was on this subject, though. Really glad SFV exists, but unless it was never going to exist otherwise, not a fan of it being withheld from XBO owners.

I doubt it wasn't going to exist otherwise, considering the PC release.

 

[Codeblue]

Looks like an Ultra Street Fighter IV on steroids, not like a next-gen game...maybe it's the art-style or it's a Tekken 7 situation (unfinished and unpolished), but yeah first impression is meh...

I definitely hope the entire look gets an overhaul, but I'm still hyped for the potential of roster and mechanic overhauls.

 

[Caayn]

I don't get how anyone can see this as bad news. How can it not be great that the game won't be held back by the lesser hardware of the Xbone?
If anything, PC gamers could be upset that it wasn't a PC exclusive, but that would be impossible for a franchise this big.

Consoles will always hold the technical potential of games back, the PS4 is no exception.
