Home Street fighter updates

Delicious Street Fighter IV screens are delicious

     Street fighter

You may have already seen these screenshots before, but now you can check them out all over again without having to squint!

Nothing else to say other than some of my observations I noticed from the screens:

  • The guy with the camera in the above picture is waiting to snap a picture of Chun-Li's ass.
  • Also, Chun-Li is still pretty damn hot.
  • Guile's hair is completely flat. He must have an amazing stylist.
  • My jokes f*cking suck.
  • You know, for a guy who is so skinny that you can make out his rib cage, he sure is extremely stretchy.
  • Crimson Viper is probably a tranny.
  • E. Honda, Zangief, and Blanka really fit the new art style.
  • Why penis why.
Psshh: Don't tell anyone, but I'm hearing Street Fighter IV will be at GDC next week. If that's true, then you know we'll be getting our hands on it for sure. Maybe they'll actually have a different level to show off finally.

I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around how this art style is supposed to look in action.

I personally love how it's coming along, and these screens are just gorgeous to me.

Ahem, Taki's had one of those for quite a while. (Also, in her new screenshots, it looks like Cassandra does too.)

I don't know about everyone else, but I quite enjoyed these screenshots. But one thing I do agree with everyone. WHY PENIS WHY?!

A horrifying Chinese secret?!

That is...terrifing. Dude look at her arms, they are HUGE. Just no, that is not how a chick is supposed to look.

I'd hit that? Looking back at what she used to look like, I'm sure that she's going to reveal that she's really Raul Julia in disguise.

Ok, Ryu still sucks...
Chun Li, aside from the what others have pointed out, seems to be even more muscular than usual (i prefer thinner thigh versions, much less what they normally do, but this seems to push it even more)

Aside from those two, the rest seem to be coming along alright...
Overall, i still prefer the 2D style for street fighter.

Lovin' the new Zangief and Honda.

The only one I really hate is Guile. Is it just me, or are his forearms bigger than his biceps!? I never liked Guile anyways though.

I still don't understand why they went with this art style over the 2D art wich was cool. Also why penis why!?

Man, if you're gonna give her a crotch like that, at least put a line between.

I still can't tell if this game is going to be good.

To quote Tycho from Penny Arcade: "games look like shit until they look awesome."

While I certainly don't think SF4 looks like shit, per se, I don't think it's quite... there just yet, either. This is to be somewhat expected, as the game is a work in progress. I expect and hope that this will be rectified before the game is released. We'll see.

I stopped caring about how the hands are bigger than the head and all that stuff by now. All of them have fucked up anatomies.

Still not passing too much judgement until I've actually played it but would've liked less silly expressions on Ryu's face and maybe a less muscular Chun-Li (might look different in motion though). Zangief is awesome.

I think they are still improving the character models so they could look completely different by final build...as you can tell Crimson Viper looks a tad different...but I believe Capcom dropped the ball in choosing this art direction...though Guile and Dhalsim are spot on!

I'm still not sold on the character models yet, but I'm hopeful Capcom'll make some changes before the final build.

I saw these big images like a week ago, they're pretty fucking sweet. I was happy to get an enlarged look, Dhalsim is fucking awesome with his motion blur effect when he stretches.

Early version is early. This still has a long way to go people. Plus, as long as she doesn't have an Adam's apple like Poison it's all good.

I seem to recall there being a 2D SF game in which Chun Li's hands look kinda large in her character art. I can't find it at the moment, though. In either case, the best Chun Li art, in my opinion, is SVC Chaos' take on Chun Li.

SourGr8pes at 02/12/2008 08:39
They take some really unflattering angles of Chun Li -_-

On another note, you gotta admit that picture of Zangief lifting Ryu over his head (possibly grabbing penis) is nothing short of badass. Hey: Balls aren't touching.

Aside from man hands (which, really, they're passable), I think she looks great. That's Chun-Li, no question.
