More Rival Schools would rock, as would more Kikaioh. And another Power Stone while we're at it. And we could really use another Darkstalkers game, too.

Maybe if SF4 does well, Capcom'll start looking at getting back into the fighter biz full-time again.

Well, the final character for SF4 has been announced.

Rose!
Something we knew for months!
Congrats, Capcom.



Also, is it me, or does Gen look surprisingly well-preserved for someone who's supposed to be... you know... possessing a fatal disease that makes him cough up blood?
And should have killed him well before the three-years-later that this is taking place post-Alpha-3?

I can't look at this game without thinking of Clayfighters. Still; yay for Rose. I would have preferred Ibuki or Ingrid(oops) though.

You want Ingrid in?

Could have sworn there was talk of Ibuki having a good chance of making it in...

I could've sworn the same thing too... and I damn well hope she makes it in.

Mostly because (or rather, other than she's awesome) wasn't it based off of a poll as to who would make the cut in the console version? Last I heard it was between Cammy, Sakura, Rose and Ibuki.

Cammy made the numbers, the fan backlash brought in Sakura (THANK GOD!), and then Rose was that stupid Capcom blundered screenshot.

I'm all for Ibuki making the cut.

Oooh, indeed.

Now that's a console war.

Would've added more spice if it was Nintendo instead of Capcom.

So far it's only for Arcade, 360, PS3 and PC. Which is why they didn't include Nintendo.

You want the 360 players to lose? Force them to use the 360 controllers. XD

Now that you mention it, how are they going to lock themselves in epic combat? Arcade boards?

Figured this was relevant.
Particularly the note that Gen is no longer fatally ill, but 'weak.' Thanks, Capcom.

I love how this game completely ruined all of the SF canon up until this point. =/

Well, yes, I think everyone would prefer it to look great...
...but a great looking bastard stabbing continuity in the back is still a backstabbing bastard.

Agreed to that.

Ah well. Gen was awesome to use before at least. Let's hope that carried over and wasn't a "fatally ill" quirk.

Semi-related: Will be picking up one or two of the fightpads for the sake of a useable D-pad. Still iffy on this game, but will definitely try to get back into SCIV :P

Among other things, we have this little accouncement:
Quote:
 
The five alternate costume packs will be sold by theme for 320 Microsoft Points on the 360 or $4 on the Playstation 3 and will be released over the course of a month.

• 2/17 – Brawler Pack DLC Pack will include alternate costumes for: Zangeif, E.Honda, Rufus, El Furete, and Abel.
• 2/24 – Femme Fatale Pack will include alternate costumes for: Chun-Li, Cammy, Sakura, Rose, and C.Viper.
• 3/3/09 – Shoruken Pack will include alternate costumes for: Ryu, Ken, Akuma, Gouken, and Dan.
• 3/10/09 – Shadowloo Pack will include alternate costumes for: Seth, M.Bison, Sagat, Balrog, and Vega.
• 3/17/09 – Classic Pack will include alternate costumes for: Guile, Dhalsim, Fei-Long, Blanka, and Gen.

...because nothing screams 'classic' like 'guys who came much later on in the franchise's life and aren't that popular with the fans... and Guile.'
...wait, Sakura is a 'Femme fatale'? The hell? :blink:



Also, making us pay for alternate costumes? Here's hoping the next DoA game doesn't take this idea and run with it...
