SF is not a rip off imo. The costumes are, but the base game isn't. SFIV was rather filled with content, compared to quite a bit of other fighters or games in general. Super wasn't full price and you got a slew of extra characters, stages and other things. With Arcade Edition shit got a bit out of hand though, I was burnt out by then. Ultra however was probably nice for the fans, but SFV should've been their focus by then.
I think SFV should avoid coming up with 4 upgrades though. SFIV managed to bring street fighter back in the picture, but I think a lot of those consumers lost interest when the third update was announced. I was happy to see 2d fighting games making a comeback, but I think the lot of SF and especially the MvC3 practices hurt the genre. I do think Capcom learnt from their SF x Tekken and MvC train wrecks though.

Do we honestly know that Street Fighter V was never originally planned as a game coming to XB1 too?
People honestly think Sony paid Capcom solely to stop/not begin developing this game on a competitor's platform?
Is everyone forgetting the financial shambles that company is in right now? There isn't an executive in the world that would give the thumbs up on a deal like that right now in their state.

That would literally cause the biggest fucking shitstorn of all time.
MS paying so a company cancels an already announced (not to mention its the only playable version of it to public) version of a game?
Yeah... holy shit that would cause so much salt and anger its not even funny.
So why are you saying this here? It's not as though Microsoft is the one complaining here. It is the people these companies want to sell games to. So yes, there is a lot of room to complain.
We don't know anything. That's kind of the silly part about all of this. We didn't even know Street Fighter V was in development prior to this.

I'm already reading on some other forums that "MS started it first" and so it doesn't seem a lot of the same people are upset this time around

Every third party exclusive from now on is gonna be a huge internet freak out in some way.
?
How is this any different?
Do you have proof that RoT planet of the..... err tomb raider still the stupidest fucking name I have seen for a video game was coming to PS4? They announced no platforms when they showed it at E3.
Not to mention SF4 came out on 360
I know; I was basically saying that PC operates in a different way from home gaming consoles, because it's an open platform, & not a closed platform like home gaming consoles are.
Bingo.
I see this as more of a Titanfall situation. Where the game was going through a financial crisis and Microsoft gave funding in exchange for exclusivity. I mean I don't see why Ono would lie about not having the budget to make Street Fighter V.

0% chance of happening. Franchise notoriously associated with Sony + rather toxic rep it's gotten w/ the newer games = MS not being silly enough to buy it no matter how much money they have or how low the offer goes.
RE needs to redeem itself before anybody bothers wanting to pay up for it as an exclusive.

If it was just PS4 and not XB1, that would be one thing. Being on PC and PS4, but not XB1... that's fishy. I'll buy into the story for Bayonetta and Bloodborne. They're not on PC and never will be.

From waking the dragon to the use of "moneyhats" to the jab & uppercut puns to the insinuation that game announcements are treated as sporadic volleys of ammunition, this is the most ridiculous and best post on GAF I have ever seen.

Or that tomb raider was originally planned as multiplat?
People also seemed pretty fine during the PS2/xbox/GC era as well.
If MS were at all capable of doing that at this point and people defended it or celebrated it then there'd just be no hope for those people.

Don't act like it wasn't like this back then too.
Not much internet back then.

Pure Speculation here, but Maybe Sony helps with Manpower and a little bit of Tech.
I hope I remember correctly, that the Pantha Rey Engine had a lot of help from Sony. Maybe it is a thank you from Capcom, so they can get the game out quicker.
Second speculation. The Fighting community is a very intense one, but I don't think too big, when you look at hardcore players. By dividing that Community it gets even smaller and the purpose of fighting and to mess each other in a Game gets lost. We know from a lot of devs that Mircosoft is very restrictive, when it comes to crossplatfrom gaming. Eventually Capcom and Sony don't want to split the Com and allow PC / Ps4 crossplat gaming, where Microsoft didn't. To not split the Community and have a common ground Cap decided to go exclusiv ?

I would have said there was 0% chance that sf would go exclusive. ..yet here we are.
Well the SF series has a long, long, long history of re-using assets between releases, this wouldn't surprise me.
For example the sprites used for the original Street Fighter II were still in use (with tiny colour variations) in Super Street Fighter II Turbo, 3 years and 4 games later.

Report me for trolling ND/TLoU2 threads
so much denial and butt hurt in this thread its sad but hilarious at the same time.
The internet wasn't close to what it is in any of those eras, I didn't learn about the TR/GTA deals Sony did until last year. Now every little thing can be scrutinized by anyone for the whole world to see, it's different than the NES/Sega days of just grabbing a magazine to read news and buying whatever game you wanted oblivious to any deals that may or may not have gone on.
But never from a numbered release to the next.
I'm not, which is my point. I don't really get why this is such a thing when it's been a thing.
Yeah, at this point all bets are off for me.
I was saying that there was never an official statement from Capcom on which platforms Street Fighter V will appear on until today. But Clue #1 was from Sony on the "Hadouken Cabs trailer," mostly as a hint that something like this game will be exclusive to them (shown here).
Because a lot of people didn't know it was a thing and, even if they did, who would they tell besides buddies or people they meet at a convention or something? I can make a post on Neogaf in a thread that will get tens of thousands of views, people weren't capable of reaching tens of thousands of ears (or eyes as it were) back then.
Marketing.

Is it ok for a grown man to pee his pants a little bit in excitement?
So if MS buys the next Fallout or any other past multiplat that has not confirmed platforms then it is ok?
They weren't alive.
I have to wonder why people(or why the reactions in the threads are different) think that the reason behind Street Fighter being exclusive is more nobler than TR 2 when we really have no solid info about either of them. I see reasons why both publishers would have seeked out excess funding for their games yet(Capcom poor, TR taking forever to profit) yet Capcom is using the money to develop the game while SE is using the money apperently to build money pools where they can light money cigars while various Lighting Cosplayers dance around them.
I believe both could have fund it themselves but could is a much different word that would even if they are mostly the same letters.

These companies can do whatever they want with their properties. We don't have to like it, but there is nothing inherently wrong about it.

Don't worry I'm going to take a wild guess that this is a Japan exclusive
Not too sure why they would put a fighter as an exclusive, none of them are really strong pullers for anyone that I know
Sure fun to mess around with etc, but not something I would go out my way to buy a certain console for
Yep, we had it bad back then. Real bad.
The Fallout would be horrific. Pun intended.
If I liked fallout, I would just buy the platform on which I could play the game.
I never said anything was wrong with it. I am totally fine with it. I just want to know why he was saying one was wrong and one was not.
Because while I lament the existence of 3rd party exclusives overall, it is silly to think that if a company is doing it by the truck load (MS), its direct competition (Sony) shouldn't do it ... because reasons.
If anything, the reluctance of Sony to spend money on this kind of endeavors has led to the (beyond stupid) "PSx has no Games" meme.
Is it stupid to spend money for this kind of shit?
Yes.
Does it make sense if your competition is trying to gain traction to respond to fire by fire?
Probably. In a business sense.
Now all this being said, we don't even know the kinks of the deal. So ... yeah.
I just want another Virtua Fighter...with Quest Mode...
I spent so many damn hours on VF Quest Mode. Seriously.

As Bish stated, the weekend is really going to test the NeoGaf servers. I think that speaks volumes too, honestly. :]
SFV is a pretty big deal as evidenced in the reactions in this thread. However, I can understand that not everyone is into fighting games. All the rumblings over the past few days about PSX seem to suggest there will be something for a lot of other people who aren't necessarily into SFV.
