Capcom teases their next major fighter.
By Patrick Klepek, 10/17/2007

As Capcom's media event gets started overseas, the company has already dropped one spectacularly major, but long awaited, announcement by revealing Street Fighter IV is currently in development. Capcom's community website has been counting down for over a week now, as gamers have speculated over what could be such a big deal.

The short teaser is nothing more than some Ryu and Ken stylized artwork of them fighting, with no word on what platforms the game is coming to or a projected release date. Clearly, Capcom is strictly teasing at this point.

Of all games, Street Fighter IV is probably worthy of such a countdown, considering Capcom released the original iteration of Street Fighter III back in 1997. A few months later came 2nd Impact: Giant Attack, which tweaked the gameplay and introduced two new characters, eventually followed up by 3rd Strike: Fight for the Future, bringing back Chun-Li and an addition four new characters, in 1999.

Unfortunately, we don't know anything more than that, and any impressions or announcements from the event are embargoed until later this week. Until then, let the speculation begin on what Capcom's bringing to the table in their latest numbered sequel in the Street Fighter series.

woah, the video looks AWSOME, and I hope the game stays the same as the video and they don't repeat the failure of SF 3D games, or it will be an epic fail

Whoa. Nice.

It would be good if they pulled it off right. but a really nice and stylized 2D Streetfighter would be nicer.

At any rate, it made me want whatever system it's on just so I could get my grubby little mits on it.

Rumor has it that dimps will be working on the game. If that is true we can expect a system similiar to rumble fish hopefully, and 2.5D graphics. If dimps is indeed working on this ,that alone will spark interest for me for the SF series(which i hate to death).

holy shit must have

Sadly, I have chosen Soul Calibur as my one true fighting game franchise and nothing in the world will change that but I am pretty interested to see how this works out.

It better not be in 3D.

We all know how much those games failed.

Kyoudai · 10-17-2007, 09:37 PM

Oh my GOD.

That.
Was.
AMAZING!!

I really, REALLY hope they keep it sidescroller. It could be 3d, it could be mega amazingly detailed 2d, or a mix of both, but I want the good ol sidescroller. Thats why the only SF I bought recently was Alpha Anthology.

sidescroller + cellshaded 3d would be nice

and console version would have rpg mode lolz
