Im not that big into fighters but i like how Sony and Capcom aren't talking around the bush

They directly say PS4 AND PC
You don't have to start petitions,ask and threaten the guy who announced the game 500 times or do other stuff to get the truth out of them.

I'm fully confident that we'll see this on xone eventually, but after Destiny I'd expect it to be a full year at least, plenty of time to cement the PS4 as the FGC console.

Why PS4 and PC though?
Doesn't Sony usually like to keep their games exclusive their own platform? I find this surprising (in a very good way).

My guess is that the deal (if there is one) was never going to be for permanent exclusivity and I don't think Sony considers PC nearly as big of competition as the Xbox. Capcom probably would have wanted a good chunk of cash for full exclusivity seeing as how well the Steam version has done.

This is a smart decision, though. Basically cements PS4 as the FGC console of choice grabbing (the initial version) of the biggest game.
 
Damn i guess xbox one owners can still look at the PC version. It will look/play better anyway (if capcom get the netcode to presteam sf iv).
 
I'm a bit shocked that gamers aren't upset over this considering how outraged everyone was when Microsoft purchased Tomb Raider exclusivity. This is no different.

wow. This is same scummy move as Microsoft TR deal. w.e dont really care.

Hypothetically speaking; if you were a game console company and you had the chance at this..why wouldn't you? The best car manufactures don't mess up their production line just to be like everyone else right?

....and the question "what would these TR replies look like if it were a PS4 exclusive" is sufficiently answered.

Just realized and confirmed SF exclusivity is nothing new.

Street Fighter was exclusive to the Turbografx CD.
Street Fighter II was exclusive to the Super Nintendo.
Street Fighter II CE was exclusive to the Turbografx.
Street Fighter II Special CE was exclusive to the Sega Genesis.
Street Fighter II Turbo was exclusive to the Super Nintendo.
Super Street Fighter II was the first cross platform, and came out for both the Super Nintendo and Genesis.
Super Street Fighter II Turbo was exclusive to the 3DO.
Street Fighter Alpha was the second to be cross platform, and came out for both the Playstation and Saturn.
Street Fighter Alpha 2 was the third to be cross platform, and came out for both the Playstation and Saturn.
Street Fighter Alpha 3 was the fourth to be cross platform, and came out for both the Playstation and Saturn (Japan) and Dreamcast (US and Japan).
Street Fighter III (all versions) was exclusive to the Sega Dreamcast.
Super Street Fighter II X was exclusive to the Sega Dreamcast.
Street Fighter IV (all versions) was the fifth to be cross platform, and came out for both the 360 and PS3.

As I own both consoles this doesn't really effect me but these exclusive deals are terrible for all gamers and need to stop. It's bad when either company does it. That being said who really needs Street Fighter with Mortal Kombat coming out and a Smash Bros already here.

Not sure it's hypocrisy. Since the start of this gen, more people have a PS4 than an Xbox One, therefore more people are affected when it's a X1-exclusive than when it's a PS4-exclusive. Not to mention SFV is also PC, which wasn't the case with Tomb Raider.

I dunno man, there was a lot of anger here when the Tomb Raider thing happened. The PS4 is the only current gen console that I own, and I would be happier in a world where SFV and Tomb Raider are available for both systems on their respective release dates.

thanks for this!
i refuse to believe it's not coming to xbone, this is capcom we're talking about
very surprised capcom would do such a deal (let's face it, some deal happened behind the scenes) in the 1st place, didn't ono say he needed 10 million dollars for SF5 to happen?

You mean the same capcom that took MH to 3DS when it had been selling bonkers on PSP? Or when they announced RE4 for GC exclusive (but it did eventually release on other consoles)? Capcom makes some strange decisions sometimes so while I think it will eventually come to Xbone as well, it might be a while or who knows. Capcom likes to make decisions that test its financial solvency.

The way I feel is that this is different than the tomb raider exclusivity is that tomb raider was announced for all the platforms before it was announced the exclusivity to xbox one and xbox 360.

If they announced SFV to be all platforms than announced a month later that it would be ps4 and pc excusilve I would have exactly the same issue.

Wasn't a fan of that art style at all in 4, looks like it's been carried over to 5.

I still wish we would gotten the Tekken X SF game.
That's Namco's job. They're the ones lagging behind with that one.

As for the art style issue, also not a fan of the similarity of SFV's look to IV's, which I never liked (the fact that it's a slight improvement over that doesn't say much when MvC3/UMvC3's style still looks better).
 
When it comes to the art style and graphics, THIS is what I wanted Street Fighter V to be:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJwKmvUhNDA

Really vibrant and flamboyant water color styled. As of now SFV looks less stylized than SFIV.

This looks a little placeholder to me. I think too much style or effects makes the game harder to play. Hitboxes still have to be obvious and all that shit gets in the way.

I think this isn't quite what the final will look like. That first sf4 egm cover story didn't look like the final either.
 
I'm a bit shocked that gamers aren't upset over this considering how outraged everyone was when Microsoft purchased Tomb Raider exclusivity. This is no different.

I'm shocked that people are still making these ridiculous posts 61 pages into the thread that they obviously haven't read a single page of.

Oh wait, no I'm not.
 
My issue is not that there's literally "no difference at all" between circumstances. It's just that I grow really, really fucking tired of the stupid console wars bullshit that arises in response to trying to establish how one isn't just different than the other, but so wildly different that it's completely ok to lose my shit when this thing happens, but when this other fairly similar but slightly different thing happens I can spin it as totally positive. I'm not saying that Tomb Raider and Street Fighter and five other game examples are exactly the same thing and it's pointless to distinguish factors at all. However, the motivation behind the deals is still entirely the same. A publisher needs/wants money, and a platform holder is trying to bolster their library with exclusives.

Well said that man. It is entertaining though.

It doesn't affect you in that you can buy the games as soon as they come out but it does affect you in that money is being allocated into buying games instead of creating new ones.
 
Nice try Sony. You think Microsoft cares? They have Minecraft. Prepared to get stomped at E3.

you're upset, it's understandable.

no need to throw hyperbole around now
 
Hoping this isn't the only major announcement for psx. Haven't really played a street fighter game since SNES. I am happy for SF fans though.

Looks cool, but a bit noisy. Like a fighting game mixed with a music visualizer on a computer.

I really wish we could have 2D Capcom back. Imagine Street Fighter III's art direction, but in 1080p with tons and tons of high budget, hand drawn animations. Yes, we've had stuff like Blazblue and Guilty Gear with high res sprite work, but none of those animate in the same smooth way that Capcom and SNK's fighters did on far inferior hardware.

I'd love if they did this as well. I dig Street Fighter IV's art style, I like the exaggerated characters and environments. But I was expecting some sort of jump somewhere else regarding visuals, instead of toning down the exaggeration in Street Fighter IV, making it look cleaner, ect.

The more I think about it, there is no hype for SFV yet from my perspective. SFIV Ultra has a boatload of characters, content, a thriving community, if Street Fighter V is going to a continuation of all that, it better ship with a fantastic roster and drastic tweaks.

It's Bayonetta 2 all over again and I say that in a here we go with all the salty comments kind of way. Seriously, if you're an active gamer into new games and don't have a PS4 what's wrong with you?
If you can do it the PS4 with Wii U combo is the way to go this gen.

Lol, complete nonsense here
 
This is a very weird exclusivity "deal". When they say "PC" they are actually saying "Windows", i.e., a Microsoft platform. So then, why not releasing it for Xbox One too?

Here's my theory: The intention for the new SFV is to unify online, i.e., you can play against anyone, regardless of the platform they are using. And we all know this is something that Xbox Live doesn't allow and Microsoft are really stubborn about it (remember the Steamworks/Portal 2 PS3/PC "exclusivity")
 
I dunno man, there was a lot of anger here when the Tomb Raider thing happened. The PS4 is the only current gen console that I own, and I would be happier in a world where SFV and Tomb Raider are available for both systems on their respective release dates.

Right but this looks more like a titanfall sunset overdrive or bloodborne situation where. The platform maker stepped in to help it happen.

Both are partnering with third parties to help titles happen that might have been cut for budget reasons otherwise.

Am I the only that doesnt see the graphics upgrade? it kind of looks worse than SF4 actually. probably just pre-alpha footage but I still think SF4 looks better in comparison.
