SF4 - thoughts


is anyone of you guys looking as much forward to the game sf4 as I do?
the youtube trailer looks really promising in my opinion.
the design (ryu and ken looking not manga-like but more realistic instead plus the dark and stormy background) as well as the fighting choreographie (which includes the special moves but at the same time maintains a 'certain' degree of realism by continuesly incorporating also simple and raw basic techniques) strongly remind me of the overall artwork and atmosphere in the animated movie. it almost seems like they let this movie inspire them when they created the teaser...
what do you think? but it looks like we still have to wait a long time before it finally comes out... :-/

I'm really looking forward to it as well! It's only too bad the game will be in 3D, but the gameplay will still be 2D. And it's really cool that some classic Streetfighter 2 characters will make a comeback, like Dhalsim, Cammy and Guile. Or so i heard.

gameplay will stay 2D? I didn't know that yet, but it's a great news!

Yeah, it looks 3D, but you move around like it's 2D. The #2 Streetfighter game champion of Europe (I once met him in a game shop) told me they call it 2.5D or something. xD

Here you can see some in game screenshots:

thx for the screenshots, they look great! :-O
btw, did you get the chance to challenge that #2 champion for a match or two? I'd like to...
and even more btw, any chance you are from the netherlands???:)

Yep, i played a few games with him, but ofcourse i didn't stand a chance against him, he can perfeclty perform any special on exactly the right moment. But it's really cool because he plays with Ryu, and there aren't a lot of pros who do that.

Here you can see some videos of him playing:
