Dude, I'd love a new Rival schools game PERIOD. I was addicted to that game on PS1. I loved how fun the game was. Shoma and Natsu were my bitches. :D

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> I would like to see a good chunk of the Street Fighter III cast in this game EVEN if it is introduced as DLC for the console versions! I would love to see Alex, Yun, Urien, Makoto, Necro, Yang, Gouki and Ibuki

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Less street fighter 2 more street fighter NEW!

ratba

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Thank God my e-prayers were answered. Sakura is probably one of the best characters in the Street Fighter games, and keeps stuff fresh.

I would love some Rival Schools cameos too :D

Yami

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> I would love to see the same treatment for a combination of Dark Stalkers and Red Earth/Warzard. As it is, I am a purist for Street Fighter and only want the originals. Basically, the series peaked at Championship Edition for me.

kingofallcosmos

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> I definitely want to see Sakura in this game. No updated timeline bullshit neither. Straight up sailor girl school outfit, with the pleated skirt, big red knickers and red chuck taylors.

Alpha and III characters I'd like to see in IV would probably have to be Sakura (gotta love her), Rainbow Mika (the bitch was crazy), Ibuki (she was cool), Yun & Yang (not sure why). I'd also like to see another Final Fight character. Highly likely given Alpha and II both got Final Fight characters and they fit in SF pretty well. I never used Hugo and thought he was shitty, but his drunken style, head bobbling standing animation alone was cool. *lol*

I'm also hoping this'll won't be just and Xbox 360 and PS3 release and Wii will get in on this game. Especially seeing as I have neither a PS3 or 360.

Random J

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Cammy, Sagat, Bison, Sakura, and Alex would be nice. I really can't believe Sakura is behind Dudley in the polls O.o

Either way, the idea of console exclusive characters just stinks of bad.

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Let's just bring back EVERY Street Fighter character ever.

So that means all the pixelated junkies from 1 that were never translated into future installments, all the hidden/added characters in 2, alpha, 3, and their thousands of expansions.

Let's NOT include anyone from the EX series however, because those games bring shame to the series.

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @Zyzex_Remix: Actually they are bringing it back in order to allow a bigger fanbase to be created.

Since SFIII was more of a hardcore only club if you know what I mean.

Thats why SFIVs fighting system is closer to SFII, yet it has a few extra things thrown into the gameplay mechanics to make it technical enough to also appeal to the hardcore fans.

I think its a good move.

Personally I hated most of the characters from III anyways. They felt like cheap replacements for others. Well the obvious "clone" characters anyways.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> "team is listening to fan requests" eh?

DAN! MORRIGAN! DANTE! AMATERASU! SONIC!

Ultrasinc

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Just plug in every character from Alpha 3 and SF III and we can call it quits. Sheez what's up with all the pretentious "guest" characters here? At least if you're going to put in a "guest" character make it so that it actually fits in the game, like I don't know Goki?!?

rzac30

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Street Fighter III was an amazing game. And I kind don't like the fact of how they're bringing back all the old SFII fighters just because they were more popular. In any case, I'd be more than happy to see a few more SFIII fighters make their way onto IV.

Zyzex_Remix

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Street Fight Alpha 2, to me, is the greatest 2D arcade fighter EVAH! so any character from that would only make SFIV that much better. Personally I'd be happy if they only added Alex (SF3) and Sakura but then again, I'm easily pleased.

PITwelve

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Okay, so what would be the best way to contact Capcom about putting Sakura in SFIV? Posting on their blog probably isn't the best method, since I'm sure they overlook the thousands of posts they get.

LETS CONTACT CAPCOM USA AND JAPAN. PUT IN SAKURA, OR THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY CAPCOM, HELL! *cracks knuckles*

y2kenjination

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @z357x is judge, jury, and executioner.: We dont need Hugo since theres zangief. Remy also since theres guile. Twelve < Dhalsim, Alex < Abel, Oro (do we really need him back? Personally one of the worst characters ever).

A friend of mine said that they saw Michael Bison (Balrog in the US) in SFIV during a local test. But hes not sure what that was, his guess is that it was Capcom HQ screwing with network connectivity and using him just for fun.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Like I've been saying for months, SAKURA IN SFIV PLZ. It'd be a fanboys wet dream. Oh, and adding Ibuki would be a bonus.

y2kenjination

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @Witzbold: Heh, Daigo vs. Justin wong, Evo 2004. That Vid brings back memories. Thinking about it from that perspective, that would be a badass homage special to add to Ken's repertoire. Almost like Cody's Final Destruction A-ism super move in SFA3 is a homage to a Final Fight glitch of his. Cool stuff.

KeroseneClimax

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> As long as the new chars are ALL reasonably balanced, it will be fun. As Americans- 90% of us will never see an arcade again- so consoles is what we base the scene on. Even Evo runs on consoles.

+ Watch video

Btw shit sorry in response to my previous comment about the parry animation, its different from SFIIIs but it still was a parry though it seemed, since the character did flash and the damage looked like it was negated.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> I am a bit disappointed that they are going back to a simpler version of SF. It's understandable, but still. I also would have liked to see older versions of the characters.

reddevil

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> How interesting would it be if Capcom made a deal with SNK and brought in some of their characters. The return of Capcom vs SNK franchise anyone??

Phlycheez

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @Witzbold: That'd be awesome if it made a return in some fashion, but perhaps SFIV only has certain characters who can parry, like Jam from GGXX. Even for an alright fighting game player like myself, I acknowledge the depth parrying brought to the franchise. If it's actually being integrated to SFIV system after all, great! If not, I'll adapt to what they'll throw my way; It's SFIV, right?

KeroseneClimax

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @theblade: Yeah, your right it doesn't compare to Tekken, Street Fighter is a much deeper fighting game than Tekken could ever hope to be. Tekken is just soooo booooring. And seriously the last 3 games or so seem to have been almost exactly the same aside from the story, it'd be worse than Madden except that, lucky for us, they don't spit one out every year.

fearing

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @Jotsy: Actually SFIV has a slight bit of air juggling included now so its kinda mixed up how combos will chain / can be done now. Also the new "save attack" system (forgot what they changed the name to) helps make fights more interesting for folks who learn how to use it correctly.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @TheCleaningGuy: Not 100% sure but whatever I did see was a parry, since it was the similar animation also.

But once again only have seen ken do it so not sure what it was.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @Witzbold: if -> since

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @Witzbold: Parrying is back??? Kind of, at least???

Q!!!!

That is all.

Highlander Wolf

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @TruPhan: Sounds like Capcom vs SNK's groove system ;)

As for downloadable attacks and moves, well maybe. Maybe even use COD4's exp system where you have to earn them. but combos? This isn't Tekken's dial-a-combo system. combo's in SF are based on timing and speed.

Jotsy

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @KeroseneClimax: Btw you might cry if I think some sort of parry system is included in SFIV.

I saw it a the local test last week. I noticed this guy using ken was parrying incomming fireballs 3 times in a row.

Havent seen any other characters do it though.

Its odd since a contact I have said the parry system isnt suposed to be in SFIV. So Im not sure what that was.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Elena! Elena! I love bringing the low-tier Capoiera to the shoto-scrubs.

They're listening to the fans, eh? I always wonder what that implies. Game journalists? Do they actually troll the forums of Shoryuken and find that ONE guy who really, really wants Sodom back?

Mavwick

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> The very act of playing a fighting game, and wanting to be good at it, already creates a gap between novices and experts. SFIII wasn't an exclusive club for skilled players. Like SFII - and every other fighting game ever made - SFIII had it's system, and if you didn't take the effort to adapt to it, of course your going to feel left out of the action. I'm still a bit annoyed how much Capcom has to bend over backwards to appease the same audience who abandoned an excellent game like SFIII and pretty much caused SF's seven year absence in the first place. I'm still a bit irked by that.

Anyhow, If I had to make a selection of whom I'd pick for SFIV, I'd choose: Dan Hibiki, Dean(Final Fight), Alex, Maki(final Fight) or Karin if they were choices. That said, I'd rather choose new characters for SFIV any day though.

KeroseneClimax

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @Gutzman: Dude you will totally love Abel then. Hes my new favorite character for the time being.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @cybereality: Im not sure if DLC will work with a fighting game in terms of characters. Costumes maybe, but full characters Id be a little more doubtful of.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> At first I thought this was a game made for fanboys.. now I'm sure :P

Shame on you CAPCOM!

CockroachMan

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> That screenshot is awesome - as Zangief is probably my favorite character. I thought playing as Hokuto from EX series was interesting. If Sakura is selectable... they must make her taunt do damage.

Gutzman

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> So its pretty much confirmed, my two characters aren't making it into the arcade version. Bummer. Knowing Capcom, they will nickle and dime us for characters via DLC and continue to milk the SF series for all its worth.

cybereality

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Just make a Wii version. That's all I care about. The exclusive Wii character could be a bowl of soup for all I care.

Robotube

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @JarenFace: No. The only 2 characters who were "new" was Abel and Crimson Viper. Everyone else was from SFII.

I'll probably save my money for SF IV, though.
Sakura and Dudley FTW!





TheCleaningGuy

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Big mistake! They need to have all the characters in the arcade version so they can get the feedback needed to make balance changes. Having console exclusive characters will just degrade the experience for both platforms: arcades get shafted with the "incomplete" version and consoles will likely have balance flaws.

Horsefly

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @TruPhan: "How about downloadable attacks or combos that can be added to existing characters? I mean, if we're talking expansion here, why not make it so that you can start loading different abilities into your fighter?"

It'd ruin the balance of the game, not to mention it would kill the game if you didn't know what moves your enemy has...until he uses them.

godrifle

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @Ashurahori: :) It´s remind me the Guile's one,it's good to know Capcom will include day/night changes,hopes they include weather system as well,this could keep fresh the stages for more time.

OT79

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @Jest: And given THAT IT IS NAMCO AFTERALL, who does a pretty good job about when non-tourney legal characters are allowed to be used, I would be highly surprised if they somehow drop the ball this time on SCIV.

My logic > that of a janitor.

Jest

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Damn people. This is Capcom... The closest thing they are going to do in terms of console characters is at least a Capcom character. Not Max Payne, Not (no not ever) Scorpion. You also have to remember that it's a fighting game, and that it would significantly unbalance the game to have weapons in them if nobody else has them.

They're not going to fit the entire Street Fighter roster into SF4, but if they're going to fit any characters into the console version, it's certainly going to be from that roster.

Name an online fighting game where you can't use characters coded into the game.
Soul Calibur IV will have online play.
Case in point.





TheCleaningGuy

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> How about downloadable attacks or combos that can be added to existing characters? I mean, if we're talking expansion here, why not make it so that you can start loading different abilities into your fighter?

To make it more balanced, you can select which moves you want your character to be capable of, make that number finite, so that it isn't a matter of who owns all the moves, but rather who has armed themselves with the best array of moves that they're good with.

It's a crazy idea that has a few problems, but after all of the attack personalization that I've seen recently in Mass Effect and Bioshock, I think purchasing new abilities or weapons could be a new avenue to explore with DLC.

TruPhan

But a lot of people are, and online play is important. It's really Yoda that pisses me off, he's going to make half of Nightmare's horizontals useless, and I don't even want to think about Astaroth.
I just want a balanced fighter, and the extra characters are going to stick out like meat grinder in a pet store.
Well, theres always the arcades, I suppose.

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> If they'll take the time to model and animate new characters then they definately have time to perform any gameplay tweaks / fix glitches that might go un-noticed in testing and are present in the arcade version.

There could be plenty of new modes added for the console version as well. Unlockables such as artwork, stage music (classic SF2 music), event modes (win match using only special moves for example), even a break the car mode where you can choose the model of vehicle you want to destroy!

It's Street Fighter IV, which they want to be the next SFII. People aren't going to be happy when they get really good with a character that isn't available in a tournament they want to enter.

Now if you were comparing like SF to like Kof of something maybe thats a better comparison. As for me SF iv looks ok.. defiantly not on my most wanted list in comparison to tekken or soul calibur but its defiantly on the hope to try it list. Hope i can find an arcade that has it once its out.

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Well if it's following the SF II story line, why not just add M Bison, Vega, Sagat, and Balrog? Then Cammy, Deejay, Fei Long and T-Hawk.

I know I know, they'll be saved for Super Street Fighter IV Hyper Turbo Edition!

Sweet news nontheless

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> I'd love to see Elena and Ibuki from SF3 make an appearance. Sakura from SFA Alpha would be awesome as well.

Where's Cammy?

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> I hope the cameos are JUST Street Fighter characters.
Star Wars already made me cancel my SC IV preorder.

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Just to add fuel to the fire... there's a poll up on our Capcom blog where you can vote for the characters you'd like to see in SFIV...

[blog.capcom.com]

Since this is the Interwebs, a disclaimer is probably needed:

Please note that this poll is not binding, in way hints at anything at all, does not confirm that there will be differing versions, and in fact doesn't even confirm that there will be any console versions. ^_^

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> @deathsyth8888: I counter your counter with Zack and Wiki. Kicks would be punches in the shins from Zack, and punches would be attacks from Wiki, hovering over Zack's head. They wouldn't even need to futz with the art style.

Captain Falcon vs. Ken. Battle of the century.

Archaotic

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> I used to be into SF pretty heavily, but once Soul Calibur came out, I was converted. My problem with SF4 is that it really seems to me like an old fighting game with new graphics. (Well that could be said for basically every fighting game to come out for the last few years)

Additional characters are always welcome, but I'm certainly not wowed quite yet.

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> I'm all for console exclusives, but console specific exclusives is a horrible trend that needs to die a painful death already. I certainly hope they don't take the Soul Calibur route with this.

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> I'm still skeptical about SF4, but this news is great. If Sakura and Makoto makes into the console ports, it would be great. Would kinda resemble when SF Zero 3 was released for the PSOne with the extra characters and extra modes.

Lider

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Just curious...does anyone even care about Tekken 6 after seeing how awesome Street Fighter 4 is looking? Tekken is in real need of a revamp, is getting too samey for its own good...

zany_ninja

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Well, since I won't be able to play this in the arcade due to its likely INSANE rarity in the US, I'll hold out for these console ports.

...provided Akuma's in them, that is.

Archaotic

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> I may just be really gullible, but I thought a Street Fighter 4 for consoles was already announced?

Samos42

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> This game is number two on my list this year (number one is Fallout 3, of course) and extra characters is just more icing on the cake. I do hope they're more classic characters though, and not generic trash like that Abel fellow we saw last time.

Cogito

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Instead of Star Wars characters, SFIV will boast various characters from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle series.

KrsJin

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Of cours we will see more characters for the console ports, along with 10 different game versions ;P
heh kidding aside I do hope they make them DLC

]]> <![CDATA[Street Fighter IV May Get Expanded Roster For Console Ports]]> Hmmm...Any character from the Street Fighter series available in Street Fighter 4?

I want Sheng Long!
