...Stinger claimed an 80% accuracy rate last year, hopefully we actually see most of what's mentioned here.
 
I will... no, I can't imagine what I'll do. It's been nine fucking years since I first spotted those grainy SF3 shots in magazines.

AtomisWave is an interesting choice, given the sudden glut of 2D fighters and rumors that Sega Sammy's dropping it in favor of Aurora ... will Sega screw Capcom yet again?
 

TAJ

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Who else thinks they STILL won't redo the sprites? (lazy fuckers...) Bets?
I wanted SF4 in HD, but somehow I think even full 640X480 is too much to hope for from Capcom.

Hates quality gaming
Atomiswave seems a very odd choice if SF4 is in fact coming.

IIDX Happy Sky uses System 572? Is this a proprietary Konami adaptation of 246 or something? I know they used a "System 573" for some of their older stuff... and last I heard, all IIDX from 9th up used a proprietary WinXP set up of some sort.
 
Oh my God.

I don't even know what I'll feel if SF4 turns out to be true.

Who would possibly be behind it, anyway? Would it be 2D still?

[EDIT: Who's Stinger, BTW?]

If the game comes out on Atomiswave, then Street Fighter 4 will definitely be 2D. Here's hoping for Guilty Gear X-style high res sprites and Street Fighter 3 quality animation!

Yeah, fighting games are BACK. :D I hope SF4 finally shows up; it's been too long since we saw an original fighting game from Capcom.

Right, SF3 was an original fighting game in the sense that they started over and ditched the entire cast, keeping Ryu and Ken only. They added new game play mechanics and all the sprites were brand new.

I would expect Street Fighter 4 to be the same way. Capcom's past fighting games over the last 5-6 years have just been rehashes or crossover fighters with no new characters. The last time we saw new characters in a Capcom game were Ruby Heart and Amingo in Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 (2000), and more recently, ONE new character in the form of Ingrid in the super-rehash-fest known as Capcom Fighting Evolution.

i'm now hopelessly bad at fighting games, but i still want to see some NEW FUCKING SPRITES. atomiswave ensures that it won't be cel shaded (thank fuck), but there's still the possibility that it'll use recycled sprites on top of hideos polygonal backgrounds. and what about those weird rumors that capcom usa is now in charge of the sf franchise? oh well -- it might not even be true.

Yeah, I'm curious about this, myself. System 573 is, like, DDR and GuitarFreaks/DM stuff, so it's either a really odd name or a typo.

Also, did nobody get the notice that SF4 was in development? It's kinda shocking to hear something even more solid, but this isn't a gigantic surprise.

Doesn't mean I'm not excited, though.

Stinger reported to us that Daytona USA 3 (Arcade) and Daytona LIVE (Xbox) was on the way, yet it never happened. I will therefore not believe anything they have to say about Street Fighter 4 until I see it happen
 
Where the fuck is Sammy Vs. Capcom? Or a new DarkStalkers?

Man. . . SF4 would be nice, but I want those, too! Can't have everything, unfortunately.

The chances of this thing happening are minimal, I just don't believe this shit. And if it happens I hope to God it happens on better hardware than atomisbarf.

Quoted for truth. I believe quite a few titles on that list are fake.

I'd love Nintendo to just bring us a GC arcade port of that new Mario Kart game in time for Christmas. :\
 
Who cares if they update the sprites. Fuck, it's all about the balance, cancelability in the moves, variety, and most importantly the stage design and music.

Online play is also a must.

Seriously, high res sprites, man--when you're playing SF you're not looking at the sprites you're using the "Force" man--the "force" --it's all about seeing the frames, not the sprite detail. :D

I'd play the game even if they recycled sprites, but I'll be damned if I didn't bitch about it non-stop. It's 2005. People use their eyes to see videogames. Show us some effort.

I don't care what sprites they use as long as it's consistent. I hate this mix of art where one character will be Alpha style and one from III with a background that doesn't match either. Looks like an awful MUGEN game.

wait, wasn't dk jungle fever revealed to be some sort of prize redemption contraption rather than a videogame? why would it be on triforce? i'm skeptical!

probably died when okamoto and other capcom dev leads left.

speaking of which.. who's the talent behind this installment? if CFJ is their last effort and SVC/KOF2001 is indicative of a WIP after a decent chunk of talent has left.. i fear what the outcome is.
