Street Fighter 5 for PS4 & PC teaser trailer

Granted, it was only due to a lack of exclusives, but between this and the rest of what PSX may hold, I might have to get a system other than the Wii U this gen...
 
Those two were essentially exclusive in name only, as each cartridge had BOTH games on it. It's just that Champion Edition was emphasized on Genesis, while Turbo Hyper Fighting was emphasized on SNES (I think they might have some exclusive modes though). I'm surprised this isn't more widely recognized.

Snes also had SF2 world warrior.
 
It's not identical. But it's pretty comparable.

Not really. Tomb Raider was already being funded and released. MS hopped in and said "we want it only on us". For SFV, Ono tweeted that there was no budget for SFV, so Sony would have actually helped fund the project. Not really the same at all. It's like Bayonetta 2. The game wasn't going to get made, but Nintendo gave them the cash to make it happen.
 
A game like this being exclusive, i think hurts the fighting game community. SF should be on every console. Unless Sony funded, like dead rising 3. And i say this as a ps fanboy.
 
Haters gonna hate, but I dig the new art style. Looks like an hybrid between SFIII and SFIV's. Ryu looks especially improved from his Gorilla-like face.

And please, let's go back to discussing the actual reveal. People being angry about people not being angry, and all the posts reacting to that are making this thread very difficult to read without yawning.
 
I mean Street Fighter was always kind of a Playstation game, (all the alphas and other series spin offs came out on PS first). We just all played on 360 because that was the popular console at the time and the online was superior when vanilla SF IV came out.

What are you talking about? The series was always released on every semi-viable platform. If you really want to get technical, Street Fighter is more of a Nintendo game than anything else since the masses remember playing it on the SNES when arcade fighters were at the peak of their popularity. AFAIK, the SNES version of SF2 World Warrior nearly outsold every home console iteration of SFIV combined.

Anyways, I'm not a fan of well-established multiplatform series going console exclusive unless all the other competing platforms are tanking or simply cannot handle the developer's vision. Microsoft pulling this crap with Tomb Raider sucked, and Sony seemingly doing the same with SFV is equally shitty.

It's got pros and cons. There's something to be said for keeping the online userbase less fractured. Granted, for fighters Live has always been my preference.

Sure. But presumably a different game would have come out of capcom with some of this manpower- albeit maybe a broader/smaller one. Not sure it's a complete total different situation like your painting it.

Either way, doesn't matter. These deals are most definitely going to happen.
 
Well you are free to believe whatever you want, but to me that sounds like Nintendo saying they have no budget for a new Zelda or Konami saying they have no budget for a new Metal Gear. If Capcom really has no budget for a new Street Fighter they are either going bankrupt or there's something wrong with their priorities.

You should probably look up Capcom's financials. We were having reports last year of them only having like $150 million in the bank. It's very believable that they're tight on money.

It's fine to be OK with this, but does anyone in this thread honestly believe that Street Fighter 5 needed outside funding to be made? I mean, it's one of Capcom's top franchises...
 
Why people persist to compare TR to this case? Isn't comparable. Just stop it.

Honestly, no matter which side of the divide you are on, I think it might behoove people to stop being presumptuous. Xbone fans decrying hypocrisy would benefit from not committing the "GAF is a one person hivemind" fallacy and should do just a bit of homework trying to cross reference posting from this thread and the Tomb Raider thread before making accusations. Further, waiting for more info about how this deal came to be would probably be wise. If you're a Sony fan who wants to argue that these situations aren't the same, it might also be wise to wait for more details to surface before running with an old Ono quote to surmise that this is obviously the same exact situation as Bayo 2 and that the game wouldn't exist without Sony's investment.
 
No, because SF V has never been announced. TR was present to E3 sony conference. It's completely different.What MS did was more irritating, I don't remember any precedent, that's why people was upset.

No. It was at Microsoft's conference. With no multi platform announcments. It irritates you more because of confirmation bias
 
Whaaat Street Fighter V being exclusive is weird as hell.

A few differences I noticed from RotTR (not making a case that it's better or worse necessarily)

-SFV's first trailer reveal was up front about exclusivity, where Rise of the Tomb Raider's trailer from last year gave no indication and everyone thought it was going to be a multi-platform game for a year before Microsoft said otherwise
-SFV was announced for PS4 and PC, where Rise of the Tomb Raider is only "exclusive to Xbox One".
-Rise of the Tomb Raider was "Holiday 2015, Exclusively on Xbox", where Street Fighter V has no indication of a release period or a clear sign that it is a limited time of exclusivity.

I'm curious to know the story behind it -- if third party AAA exclusive games are in full swing now, or if Sony stepped in and gave Capcom the means to work on SFV earlier than planned, seeing how Capcom was saying they weren't going to make another one for a while.
 
Well, this "exclusive" makes even less sense than the TR one. Will there be an arcade release? Sony pay for this a bit?

Ah, whatever, It says PC so I'm good either way. So, I'll just comment on those .gifs.

Looks pretty damn clean. Like an upgrades SF4. Lets hope its not just an upgraded SF4...
 
Heh, Gaf's reaction doesn't surprise me in the slightest. Can't wait to see more, though I wonder if the eventual revisions will be available on XB1.

That's all changed now, I'm glad for this exclusivity. This is a healthy kind. Think about it, there will be a definitive place to play SFV now, there will be no arguments on which platform it's better on. I mean I guess the PS4 vs PC discussion will inevitably happen but as far as tournaments go, it's gonna be played on PS4.

No

Does anyone still care about the Tomb Raider exclusivity though? I always thought it was more of a "how dare they" type of upset than actually wanting the game. Now that we've had time to digest that announcement, people remember that new age TR is just a poor man's Uncharted.

Street Fighter is the biggest prize in the fighting game genre.
 
There is a lot of salt in this thread

I feel this game is gonna pop up on XB1 also when it comes to the states, XB1 being not as popular in Japan it doesn't surprise me to see the game is only gonna be PS4 console exclusive there, so I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it does show up on XB1 at the same time as well in Western regions.

Still awesome to know we are getting another Street Fighter. Hopefully they do more than just better graphics though, I could never get into SFIV as much as I used to be into SFIII back in college.

Honestly I say we wait for more details... we don't know anything yet and everyone is already going crazy...

Are you implying that MS wouldn't have been willing to help fund SF4?
 
The fact that it's coming to PC makes me think it's actually not a moneyhat at all, but rather Capcom looking at Japanese Xbone numbers and not bothering with the format. I genuinely can't remember a moneyhat that mentioned a PC version up front, it was always single console exclusive and then maybe a PC version six months down the line. Sony especially has a track record of keeping exclusives off PC, so for them to moneyhat a game and let there be a PC version would be extremely unusual.
 
I'm a huge Street Fighter fan.

And i just bought an Xbox One for MCC.

Guess I'm going to Tekken and Killer Instinct instead now.

This exclusive bullshit like TR can fuck right off. Way to go Capcom, just lost another long time fan.

Do we know that for sure? Didn't the RoTR trailer debut at MS' E3 conference?

Unfortunate this has to be said, but absolutely.
 
Honest question:

I keep seeing people say something along the lines of "Those are the platforms in Japan, in the west it'll probably be on X1".

Wouldn't they have dropped the PC mention as well in that case? Very very few people in Japan bother with games like this on PC.

EDIT: PC release is international I guess.
 
... Not sure I get why anybody's trying to deny the Sony Difference reaction bias. I mean I don't care about Microsoft in any way at all and would easily choose PS4 over the Bone, but this is probably the most positive exclusivity deal thread we've ever seen.

If you really don't think this thread would have a completely reversed tone if it was announced Xbox instead of PS4 I don't know what to tell you, but let's just move on.

Titanfall comes to mind immediately.

I'm just going to assume you were like 5 years old when the Sega Saturn and PSone came out. WTF where do people get this bullshit from.

No, because SF V has never been announced. TR was present to E3 sony conference. It's completely different.What MS did was more irritating, I don't remember any precedent, that's why people was upset.

It's the same thing. You can spin it however you want to but its the same crap.

Seriously? Capcom unable to fund the first new-gen instalment of one of their most - if not THE most - iconic series? Hard to believe...

That said, this teaser didn't blow me away as I wished.

I loved SFIV artstyle, I thought it was a huge step in the right direction, in order to keep the series' visual identity intact, and using the new hardware capabilities at the same time.

SFV... Well, it kinda looks like a more detailed and more 'realistic' SFIV, which - in my opinion - is quite a contraddiction. The effect - for now, and also considering how dramatically SFIV improved from its early stages to the final build - is not impressive at all for me.

I expected Capcom to pull the same kind of artistic 'reworking' behind Arc's Guilty Gear Xrd, whereas they seem to have followed the Tekken way, this time around.
 
So glad I bought a PS4. I used to feel out-of-place at community events because I was the only one bringing a Playstation. Now it will be the other way around.

Thats what surprised me about the Tomb Raider reaction. It's fucking Tomb Raider. With this at least I can see why people would be disappointed at not getting the game on their platform. I suppose it being on pc as well reduces the amount of disappointed people.
