Oh, oops. Quoted the wrong thing. Was referring to the gif that guy was replying too. The kid who didn't get a high five.
Resident Evil rumors were always around.

Anyone who thinks a game developer/publisher has the money to develop/publish a game is being naive? What if they had the money but would rather use Sony's to pay for part of development/marketing? Does that make everything okay? What if they made...wait for it...a business decision that they thought was the best financially for them?

A new SF game is exciting but I share the worry and concern with the models and lighting and sound looking very much like a rush job using preexisting assets.
Fundamentally though there are some promising signs in that footage.
The console discussion is so bizarre now we are a year in. We have a very dominant console this time around and it is almost certain to stay that way. What's more interesting to me is that it isn't coming to Wii U.

Its all guesswork based on context and conjecture. Would you say Capcom has been knocking it out of the park the past few years financially? Many would say they haven't.

The thing is it doesn't fucking matter jesus christ. It either makes business sense or it doesn't, these companies don't owe shit to you or anybody. Say if GTA now went exclusive, that would be some dumbass shit right there. There's legitimacy in discussing that.
There ain't no good and evil here, and it's tiresome to see the morality behind "exclusives" being debated. You walked into a store and you made a choice, which comes with consequences.
Capcom of course.

I hope it's DD2, just so it gets fucking made. I really have no faith in Capcom making another DD
:'(
Interesting.

"Denied" a game?
These are products; we don't have any 'right'to them. Such entitlement.
Media companies make exclusive deals all the time. See Netflix with Marvel properties.

At least Nintendo is doing it so I assume that's the case.

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
They are, but this is the first time Capcom has made a big ip exclusive to the dominant console, it's usually the other way around
So this ain't weird, it's logical for once.
Sorry, that's incorrect. The FGC was practically all SFIII, Capcom vs. SNK 2 and Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for several years and numbers were pretty stagnant. Once SFIV came about we saw a boom in entrant numbers, stream viewers, and interest in fighting games. Once Marvel 3 and MK9 came out a few years later then there were tournaments with thousands of competitors instead of hundreds (pre-SFIV days). Since then EVO is consistently breaking records yearly for number of attendants and USFIV almost broke 2,000 entrants this year alone.
SFIV gave the FGC a shot in the arm, make no mistake about it, or, at the very least, in the US. The games that have come out since it have kept interest in FGs high for people that don't like SF/Capcom games or just like Anime/NRS/3D more.
Edit: Also, just "being there" doesn't mean something can't be reinvigorated. Boxing is always "there" but there are matches and stories that reinvigorate the sport giving it a boost of interest. Whether it sustains it is different.

IV only helped Street Fighter. Then after that, just like after every new entry of a fighting game, a decline of players.
There was a lot more that contributed to the stability of the FGC besides SFIV. To credit it all to SFIV is kinda flawed.
Even this post is proof that SF mostly helped Capcom more than anything. Also you're missing SNK.
EDIT: And all of these tangents aside how does that contribute to Street Fighter IV being a great fighting game? It just means that people recognized it and played it.

If Sony is really funding this game (so if it's not the case, the game doesn't exist), how the hell they can let the game on a another plateform ?

"I'm not doing your damn essay Mr. Percy" lol
Anyone that doesn't think Capcom would take free cash the instant its on the table is naive. Street Fighter fans would be willing to shell out money for a new console to play SFV, Sony and Capcom know this, they'll both win in this scenario. Capcom thinks there are enough casual fighting game fans on the PS4 to get plenty of sales, combine that with the cash Sony throws at them.
The amount of cash Sony offered is viewed as a better deal than having the game also be developed for the Xbone.
And the deal itself would be sweeter if Capcom was shaky financially. Don't know what your point is. Capcom hasn't released a new heavy hitter in years.

Yes, I think Sony has a stake in the development of this game. I do not believe Sony or Microsoft see higher end PC as direct competition. Aka PS4 only indies, Ryse, DR3, and Titan Fall are on PC comfortably with no opposing console version in sight.
I think we'll be seeing more major 3rd party games being console/timed exclusive due to various economic factors this gen.
The people getting the best software selection this gen will be PC gamers.
Because that's why in the trailer, after having everything be subtitled in Japanese, the English at the end reads "Exclusively on PS4 and PC".

Some people want to turn every thing into a "cause" and have been playing Boy who cried wolf with the term "anti-consumer" for a while now. Might as well start calling this "exclusivity-gate".

Have you used the d pad on any xbox controller?
It got casuals interested in FG's again. It also took Evo from hundreds of entrants and viewers to 10's of thousands if you include the online viewership. I understand you may not like it, but please give it its due.

Honestly, I hope that there is cross-play for this game. I really don't wanna buy two versions of this game if I don't have too. I need my PC mods so I can have my custom music for each stage.

Darkstalkers vs Killer Instinct.
This is also wrong. 3D fighters were doing fine and Guilty Gear started making its mark.

I suppose.
With SFV we have a producer on record saying it wasn't likely until 2018, meaning they just didn't have the funds or manpower to start full development on it yet, but with the Sony deal they do, but this might also come at the cost of it not being as big a leap as people would be expecting. Things in that trailer are obviously able to be changed, but it looks like it's being built off of SF4's framework. Ryu's EX hurricane kick is the same as it was in SF4. Hell, I'm willing to bet some of the assets in the stage shown are taken from RE6 as well, since it looks really similar to China from RE6.
My worry is the game is ultimately being rushed a bit because of the deal between Sony and Capcom. SFV would have been made regardless, but I'm willing to bet that the game went into full production earlier than planned.

I mean, I know that the user has to provide evidence, but are other users subsequently messaged when Bish says, "check your PMs", so as to have other people validate the user as well, and not just Bish?
Why is it big news for PS/PC fans? They were getting it either way.

Oh man what do you think guys should I break this down for him?
I don't think I have seen this question come up since the early Halo days.
Sony could be paying them not to release on Xbox One?
I agree. And I think what most posters on here don't realize, is that most Japanese 3rd party publishers like Capcom aren't exactly big financially nowadays. Making newer games on consoles nowadays costs a shit ton to make more so than ever before.
Were if it not for Microsoft's involvement, we wouldn't have seen DeadRising 3. Without Nintendo's involvement, we wouldn't have seen Bayonetta 2. And without Sony's involvement, we wouldn't have seen games like Demon's Souls, Bloodborne, Street Fighter V, & probably Deep Down.
Because no one owns PC, & that PC isn't exactly a direct competitor.
