Most defendants of SFIII do tend to use "Third Strike" as the primary example, but the first two certaingly arent ever used. There's only ONE first impression, SF II managed it, did SF III? Noooooooo sir.

The fourth HAS to make the first impression for the other upgrades or risk complete indifference

I like it. E Honda is my favorite. It's funny that they are just getting to #4 though.
Let's not forget to mention it had the Alpha and the EX series. So this game might be the fourth in the main series, but it's not the fourth Street Fighter game to come about.

As for Street Fighter III, I enjoyed the game. But the one flaw I did see in the game was it giving you an option of one super combo move to use the entire time (or until you lost). Why was that change even considered? I thought that was just stupid. Give your players all the super combo moves to use. Each one came in handy in different situations.

Anyone, I still think to this day the best Street Fighter game is Alpha 3. I hope Capcom has what it takes to outdo it.

Like I said, the outcome depends on the house producing it, but what the hell. I'm getting on the frigging hype train now.

STREET FIGHTER IV BITCHES W00T!!!!!!!

I'd expect SF IV to be more than just "testing a roster" then adding older characters in upgrades, five old characters, five new characters, or just go nuts and have eight and eight, but give us VARIETY

Is that supposed to imply he has sex with underage kids? If so, your comments would be better directed at either Doom or Ai.

But they love the foreign delicacy, it's a cultural taste, I can't possibly impeach them for it

SF IV, huh? Hopefully, it'll spawn another anime TV series. SF II V was awesome.

An inspiring post I found while fishing around Shoryuken forums...

In fact, their only non-Asian studio is Capcom Interactive Canada, which just makes cell phone games (and was a pre-existing company who Capcom just bought out and renamed).
That makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

I wasn't making reference to whether he cared for it or not. I'm talking about how Street Fighter seems to be the game all the hardcore fighting gamers play for tournaments.

Well, I guess sprites just officially died and went to heaven. That said, it looks nice and the return of Chun Li makes me a very happy person. Even better, that shot gives the impression that the gameplay has remained 2D. Win.

What worries me though is that those visuals look like high-end Wii in quality. I certainly hope not.

Are you kidding? The Wii couldn't pull that off. Take note of the lack of jaggies.
