Replay is only for rank matches or has it been confirmed to be in other modes too?
I need to know. All three home ports of 3S had replay save for local matches and this game better let me do the same!

Yeah!!! That's what I'm talking about!!

needs to show more effort.
Replay mode is going to be awesome.

The dlc sounds fine. Non-gameplay related addons that rape the pockets of people silly enough to buy them. The way I see it, is that the people buying the costume dlc are what are subsidizing things like the replay mode for the rest of us.

Without people buying the costumes, we probably couldn't expect to get the free modes dlc either.

edit:
so, if it makes your pockets feel better after getting the costumes, just pretend you were helping to pay for replay mode, tournament matching, etc. Everyone (except me) go out and buy those costumes! ;P

I'm thinking about canceling my CE preorder and just getting the normal version and using the savings for XBL points card. The figure doesn't interest me nor does the anime. Kinda interested in the soundtrack. Originally I was thinking the 5 costumes would be CE exclusive. So yeah I may be visiting GameStop later.

ZOINK :lol

I wonder if the more "serious" characters have whacky facial expressions like this? It'd be funny to see Seth, Dictator, or Sagat with their eyes popping out of their heads in comical fashion, just 'cause it's out of character.

I just called my local best buy, a woman told me that they weren't carrying the fighting pads and that 'the fighting sticks are online available online.'

ugh.

Badass screens.

I think SFIV will bring back the fighting mania.

My cock is just about burst out of my pants!

I even reserved time off from the job for SFIV gaming. :lol

I would just go with Amazon. I mean yeah the game will be out a long time before we get our pads but at least you know you're guaranteed to get one. I'm just going to hold myself back and play something else until my stick and pad arrive.

I like battle damaged Ryu and Dictator. Also, I feel like I'm missing a reference with Ken's alt. It just looks like one of Ryu's HF colors with sneakers.

Just got my fightpad :)

This game will pretty much put a middle finger to every other game for a good part of the year for me. I might cop Star Ocean:TLH but it'll probably sit in shrink wrap for a minute.

I don't get it either...such a missed opportunity for a suit.

Some of them are cool, like Viper, Rose, Dan, Zangief. Some of them are uninspired, like Ken, Ryu, Honda, Dhalsim. And some are terrible, like Fuerte, Fei Long, dictator.

It woulda been nice if they finished Cammy and Makoto, err, Sakura. But they're missing pants. =\

BTW (2nd request), CAN ANYONE PROVIDE ME WITH BALROG'S THEME as heard here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTGsa8rxsnc

It's rather important.

Btw, The Lil'Shoto El Fuerte song is fucking awesome. Put a smile to my face after a shitty start at work. Oh well, back to work.

The modeling is great and so are the expression but the thing that gets me all happy is the brilliant use of color! COLOR! I haven't seen you this vibrant in quite some time :)
