  • Street Fighter IV - First Screenshot

    Well, I did a search, haven't found anyone doing any reporting on Street Fighter IV. Thought I'd bring about this little tidbit for all to enjoy. Though we haven't yet seen any in-motion screens of the battle system, Street Fighter fans are rejoicing over the next installment of Street Fighter. It appears the Capcom will present Street Fighter IV with the appearance of 3D while hopefully remaning a 2D fighter, because we all know how big a flop Street Fighter Ex was ...

    Street Fighter IV along with the Street Fighter 2 HD Remix that will be releasing soon, there's going to be a lot more hurt online. Can't wait to see the particle effects for the Haduken, or the animation for the Shoryuken. Show me M. Bison!

    Street Fighter IV Unveiled

    Exclusive first ever screenshot and details for Capcom's franchise revival.
    By Matt Leone, 12/06/2007

    Numbers are supposed to be impressive, right? Well, it's been 10 years, two hardware generations, and about seventeen thousand rumors since the last pure number Street Fighter came around. And today we have the first ever official details on Street Fighter IV. We don't blame you if your eyes have already skipped down to the screenshot lower on the page (yes, that's from the game engine). Take your time. But we've got some information as well, so the rest of this is probably worth reading when you get a chance.

    Though the screenshot doesn't answer this question outright, we can confirm that the game's graphics are polygonal but the gameplay is strictly 2D. There will be new moves, locations, and gameplay features, while the standard six button control scheme remains. Ryu and Ken return along with Chun-Li and Dhalsim, but beyond that the character roster is a mystery. And then there's the issue of what platform(s) the game will end up on, which at this point Capcom is keeping close to its chest (if you search 1UP's database, you'll find listings for arcade, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions, but those are just guesses based on the graphical quality).



    For the full reveal of the game -- including hands-on impressions, a rundown of the new gameplay system, and loads of details on new features -- look for the January 2008 issue of EGM in stores soon and hitting subscribers any day now. And then after you check the issue out, keep your eye on 1UP's Street Fighter IV hub page for ongoing coverage continuing into January. Anyway, are you still reading this? Didn't you see the screenshot above? Click it and look at the larger version! All your friends are doing it...

    The picture looks great. As long as the gameplay makes it look like you're still playing a beautiful 2D game.

    Honestly, I'd rather they go with HD sprites, but oh well.

          Only thing I care about for SF is the game play. Thats what it has over every other fighting game.

          This looks great....

            So, the three-dimensional reiteration of Street Fighter failed, and they think a three-dimensional linear reiteration of the two-dimensional game wont? I hope it brings something other than fan service to the table.

              SF is dead. Guilty Gear ftw. I don't think I'll ever touch this. I lost faith in SF after about SFalpha 3, its just too much of the same recycled schemes, same recycled characters and moves. Also, I don't know about you guys, but I think Ryu looks ridiculous in that ss. All things die in time, and I think Capcom's just been pushing a horse's carcass for the last several years. All the good fighters died off. Tekken is untouchable, SF is too old, dated and repetitive, Darkstalkers dropped from the face of the planet, I never really cared for Virtual Fighter or Soul Blade/ Caliber, and then don't even get me started on Mortal Combat (oooo noooosss Combat with a K). I feel its just time to move on.

                Tekken is untouchable good or untouchable bad? I never thought the game had enough fluidity. Don't even get me started on Virtua Fighter 5. I wanted a refund after downloading the free demo on the 360. I liked Soul Caliber. The fighting was fairly smooth, and the characters were interesting.

                Also DOA, but most people here seem to dislike it, so no reason to go into it.

                Boobs.

                  lol, I actually cared for DOA2, after that it did get a little too much into the boobage. Tekken was actually a pretty slick fighter till Tekken 4. Tag was wonderful, then the franchise fell off the deep end and is now unplayable garbage. What I miss though, and I feel Capcom should really explore again is Rival Schools.

                      The last one that Capcom did that I enjoyed playing was Marvel Vs. Capcom 2. Atleast that was innovative for a while, having 3 characters to play.

                            Perhaps you may want to look at the EGM cover instead of Ryu's penis.

                              Looks like Killer Instinct. Eww.

                              It's a real shame too, Street Fighter 3 is one of the most beautiful 2d games out there.
