I have a (bad) theory about this.
Initially Ono said that a new Street Fighter would not be ready till 2018.
Now they announced SFV and, by the VERY LITTLE footage shown, it seems some kind of SFIV Plus Plus On Steroids.
My fear is: because of the request for an exclusive Street Fighter, development has been speed-up, and we are getting a title more similar to SFIV than to a "real" new iteration.
Now that I'm actually complaining: i will buy it anyway and play the sheet out of it.
Even the sound effects are from SFIV, at least so far in the trailer. Maybe they haven't done anything with them yet, and just used the SFIV sounds, but that combined with the SFIV black ink art style kind of says that this barely happened at all, and it's going to be 4.5 more than an new SF.

We don't know the nature of the deal yet. So we could be talking apples and oranges here. This could be a Bayo 2 / FFXIV situation rather than a TR one for all we know.
Name a game whose graphical style changed after a beta.

Man, why even bother pointing it out. lol, I stopped stressing over it a while ago. The double standard is plain as day (I say this as a PS4-only owner).
I honestly don't have a problem with exclusivity deals -- been that way since I started gaming.

Who knows, this may be another Bloodborne-like situation.

I am a SNK fanboy but the KoF 12 and updated 12 art in 13 don't do it for me. I like it but not as much as I want to.
I have made multiple posts, I doubt it's even beta graphics, alpha at best with those animations. And if they are using that animations in the final game, fuck me.
Or it was true when he said it?
I don't know why this suddenly retroactively makes everything Ono said a troll.

Like... Sony never bought exclusives for its consoles?
Borderlands.
Several people in the press played the so called finished game before the art style change into what we see today. Not an identical scenario at all but there are examples.
I'm guessing mods are treading lightly since there are controversial times ahead (tomorrow)
game looks more pre-alpha than beta.
I edited my post a little to let you know what I mean.
Microsoft did not create or "start" the concept of paying for an exclusive game dude.
Did you only get into gaming a year ago or something?

UH, SF V cant even be close to alpha, nor beta. Those are like, months before release. Theyre probably just leaving the protoype stage.
Get your terms right, dudes.

This thread keeps delivering. People will convince themselves of anything to justify their leanings.
Its really, REALLY hard to make any accurate calls on what the final game will look like at this point.
For now, it looks like they got their engine on point and have a Ryu model they seem to be happy with. He looks fairly different from his SF IV version.
With Chun-Li, she looks early and Im fairly certain she will get remodeled from scratch at some point in the process. Chun in SF IV was remodeled more than 5 times before they got her to final. As oif right now it looks like they took the base hi-res sculpt from IV and dropped it in the engine in order to have something to show (which is why the camera focuses more on Ryu during the teaser)
In terms of DIRECTION, obviously lighting is going to be a huge focus. The teaser already seems to focus on setting up really interesting visual moods, so you can expect to see some pretty neat atmospheric variants on stages.
The biggest hint in terms of the visual flavor is the logo. In SF IV the logo was kind of brushy and ragged. Represented the brush strokes of the game. This SF V logo however:
Has a distinct graffiti look represented in the style of the font, this should be great news if youre a SF III fan, since that game was after the same thing. Because of that Im expecting really cool, bold, colorful shapes in terms of environment and effect design, which should look really nice on current gen.
Super excited!
I agree with all this! Especially the logo, it just screams SF III to me.

HAha you would think by reading some of these posts we were talking about issue of global importance. I find the psyche of gamers fascinating, people really get bent out of shape over this stuff.

People who say this sort of thing really have a limited understanding of gaming history. Which amazes me, considering we are on the internet. Google is your friend. MS didn't "start" anything.

SF has never been a exclusive, you're telling me theres nothing to this? doubt it SF was even on the 3DO lmao
Lol if you think this was started by ms.
I've been saying this a million times in this thread, but let's not immediately start happily jumping on this notion of buying new sticks. That's not what the parties involved need to see. They need to see desire for legacy hardware support and there is a way to do that now. Fans need to be vocal about Capcom supporting the LabZero PS3 stick driver they're releasing to any dev who wants it.

Well here's hoping to the PS4 release of Dead Rising 3.....
I am guessing timed exclusive because if Sony was dropping cash to grab it from Capcom, they would not want a PC version hogging some of the hype.
The state Capcom is in, they should be trying to release on as many platforms as possible. Game is looking good but I am still hoping they will try that amazing paint style art that they showed off during the SF4 reveal.

People have really lost the ability to pick up on joke posts around here. I swear it happens every damn thread.
He doesnt like that bloodborne is ps4 exclusive but I dont read that he thinks its the same as Tomb Raider or this, just that he doesnt like it.
He is clearly not talking about bloddborne in the last sentence

SNES got TWW
1 Year later SNES got Turbo
A few months after SNES got Turbo, Genesis got "Special" Champion Edition, which was basically Turbo
via Wikipedia (which rings true from my memory of things)...
The Sega Mega Drive/Genesis version of Champion Edition, titled Street Fighter II' Plus: Champion Edition in Japan and Street Fighter II': Special Champion Edition in North America and Europe, was released on September 28, 1993 in Japan and on October 1993 in North America and Europe. It was first of two Street Fighter II ports for the Sega Genesis and came in a 24 Megabit cartridge.
SNES Turbo released in July/Aug 1993 iirc

Don't think you can blame them...it is really hard to tell.....Some people say some crazy stuff.
Is this the new "Sony just shoot themselves in the foot"?

Not event close. With TR, it was originally coming to all platforms. MS bought timed exclusivity for who knows how long to keep it on one platform.
This game was barely announced, and as an exclusive for PC and PS4.
Not comparable.

Does it matter if it's the same people? We can all pretty safely say that the buzz around SFV is much less toxic than it was for Tomb Raider. You can't deny that. Look at this. Look at FF13, DMC4 and Tekken 6. At this point it's utterly obvious that a large portion of the Sony fanbase consists of over-emotional hypocrites.
And guys, we're talking about STREET FIGHTER FUCKING FIVE here. You can't possibly believe that this game wouldn't have gotten made without Sony's involvement. Again, same thing with Tomb Raider.

CE was a featured mode on Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting in the US. But the game itself was not exclusively called 'Championship Edition'.
If it's not already then - MS' dad is gonna beat up Sony's dad and Wii U's dad gonna cry.
Let's wait before jumping to conclusions, like you know more interviews and stuff.
