Street Fighter 5 for PS4 & PC teaser trailer

Hopefully the exclusivity actually means something on a technical level. I'm totally fine with a game minimum-speccing on PS4 rather than X1.

Interesting to see capcom cosying to Playstation again, though.

I was wholly expecting this announcement to just be a new DmC or another Dragon's Dogma. Had no idea it'd be a game I actually care about.



Christ, I hope not. The slow-down on top of the network lag just to keep my game in sync with people trying to play SF4 on their toasters is unbearable.

Hahahaha this guy.
 
Oh, my...
At SFIV and SFIVAE launch on PC I remember alot of Xbox friends trolling the PC version "kajin", "unpure", "console is the original version", "it will be full of cheaters, for sure", "nobody will play it", "fuck graphics ink filters, 720p is the real deal", "blablabla".

Patt, patt for you guys, wherever you are. :)

those can't be real people

As Bish stated, the weekend is really going to test the NeoGaf servers. I think that speaks volumes too, honestly. :]

SFV is a pretty big deal as evidenced in the reactions in this thread. However, I can understand that not everyone is into fighting games. All the rumblings over the past few days about PSX seem to suggest there will be something for a lot of other people who aren't necessarily into SFV.

wow, bigger than SFV exclusive, whoa

Incidentally, you also talk a lot of trash for someone who is admonishing someone for trash-talking. I really hope you at least realize that.

There's no doubt that I'm guilty of this as well, but I only trash talk someone when they do it to me.

All I want to do, is post my opinions about whatever I want without much drama from anybody.
 
They've gone and done it... they've gone and woke the sleeping dragon now.

Sony should have left well enough alone and now they're going to get it. It's not enough that they're bleeding benjamins from practically every crevice of their existence. Now they go and throw immense moneyhats at a niche game like Street Fighter just to piss off the market. Why pay to keep a game out of the hands of as many gamers as possible? Why not put that money into first-party studios and games instead?

I know, I know... this is the way the business goes as they say. Well, they forced Microsoft's hands with their early sales lead and Microsoft only responded with an NPD whooping (source: musings thread) by way of incredible deals and value. Microsoft will undoubtedly follow this announcement up with some real megatons of their own.

Gears remake collection. A true Banjo sequel. Halo 5 beta in the hands of gamers. The next Bayonetta, Dead Space and Crysis as exclusives. Those are the kinds of blockbuster response announcements I expect, and then some. You hit Microsoft with a jab, you best be ready for a flurry of uppercuts coming at you in response.

With this post alone, this thread has delivered, and then some.

More reason to care, lot of people got a taste for fighting games on the Xbox One and want one. KI3 is neat but is not SF5.

I actually love KI just as much as SF4. Double Helix did a fantastic job. I actually posted a while back in the KI thread (I think) that KI almost felt like a re skinned SF4.

But more combo heavy. But ill be glad to have my fighters this gen spread over both consoles. Last gen I only had MK on PS3 for Kratos.

Although I suspect this might be Japan PS Exclusive.

Why do people think this would be Japan PS exclusive when they're showing a trailer with footage of american tourneys with english voiceover?

exclusives have been part of the business for a long time. If you don't want to be affected by them, buy every machine. If this is asking too much, then maybe wait and see if it comes to one of your machines. getting upset over exclusives is silly, it's part of the business.

does it kinda suck? yeah, it kinda sucks but comparing this to other exclusives is a rabbit hole that is deep and doing so helps no one, really. I'd rather live in a world where a new tomb raider and a new street fighter exists, and if these deals make that a possibility then it's an unfortunate necessity. we'll live

There's a deference knowing beforehand that the first-party studios' output is going to be exclusive to this or that, and between third party games that the common sense dictates will be available on multiple platforms suddenly dropping a prominent one.

i really don't want to see this become the trend for 3rd party games. I have a PC, so I will be able to play it, but I lose out playing with my friends on Xbox if it isn't a timed exclusive. Pretty sure its going to be something similar to Tomb Raider.

Tell your friends to go PC, we await them with free online! :p
 
Monster Hunter (3DS)
Dead Rising 3 (Xbox One & PC)
Street Fighter V (PS4 & PC)
Deep Down/Dragon's Dogma Online (PS4 & PC)

So Capcom only makes exclusives now unless it's a Resident Evil game, huh?

That would be pretty bloody amazing if that happened. If it was PS4 exclusive though, I'd be disappointed in having to miss out on it though. Shenmue deserves as wide an audience as possible.

Purely for selfish reasons though, the same exclusive to PS4 and PC for Shenmue 3 - you bet your ass I'm in :p

But I think it is more likely to be Last Guardian

Interesting. I'm almost certain at this point that Deus Ex Next Gen and DMC5 will both be announced. And there are actually hints at Shenmue 3 as well. I can see DMC being exclusive but I don't consider it bigger than Street Fighter. Maybe a Crash Reboot? That would be massive.
 
A gripe I have is that the characters look the same age. I want to see an older cast with some young guys debuting. I understand not going the SFIII route and replacing everyone but give us some continuity.

Grizzled and grayed Ryu. Maybe ken's kid or something.

I don't think aging characters is ideal. It's weird when most of the roster is old, and I don't like younger characters replacing fan favorites, like in SoulCalibur V.

I said might.

I mean, there's precedence and I just think SF is a tad too popular in the west for Capcom to just leave all that money on the table. Street Fighter 4 sold a fair amount on 360. Might have been a tad more than on PS3 if I'm not mistaken?

Before SFIV I'd have agreed but just having next gen version of the cast I've been playing as the last 6 years just seems to safe and boring.
 
Moneyhatting strikes again. Most likely timed exclusives, little surprised there isn't multiple meltdown threads like there was for tomb raider.

Game looks excellent, too bad I've never been good at fighting games :(.
 
On the topic of SFV, I was not expecting this at all. I recently got back into the series when IV went free on XBL's Games with Gold after not touching it for a really long time. Maybe it was because I started playing it so late or because I just suck at it (got Makoto to rank C which I felt was an accomplishment) but while I had fun, I didn't stick with it. Maybe I'll check it out when I get a PS4 if it's still exclusive to it (and my mains Makoto and Rose are in) but I can't say I'm super hyped. Surprised and happy for those who've been waiting but not hyped.

A small time jump would work. 5 years r so after SF3 means most of the cast would be in their early 50s at the oldest.

It makes me sad thinking that if this was a Xbone exclusive, everyone would be rioting with the moneyhat and that. But it's for the PS4, so everything's OK.

Anyway, this is huge, but maybe just region/timed exclusive?

i heard the news earlier today and i expected the positive reactions here. two userbase vs one, and most members here have a ps4. the game is coming to their platform so of course they're not going to get mad about it, i was just scanning the tomb raider thread earlier and checking post history of anyone who got upset and they posted here all excited.

But every copy sold will need a copy of Windows to work.

It's not like SF5 would help sell more copies of Windows, besides millions of people already have it on their PCs... unless they try to make it Windows 10 exclusive or something, and we know how that went with Halo X Vista.
 
Had zero issue with Microsoft nabbing Dead Rising 3 or timed status for Rise of the Tomb Raider, and have zero issue with this. It's good business.

I do find the hypocritical views from both sides to be rather amusing though. Because you know, cOnsole warz!

What's exactly the difference, then? You could say this Ryu looks 5 years older than the SFIV one :p

Oh please do share so we may bask in the hypocrisy together in earnest.
