First Street Fighter IV info coming Thursday photo

PS3

In a recent chat with Next-Gen, Capcom's Chris Kramer was mum on specifics, but is very clear on one thing: We're going to see Street Fighter IV this week.

"You'll found out Thursday," he says of the project, which was announced in trailer form last October.

We've poked and prodded our sources for information we could tell you about Street Fighter IV, but the sources they ain't talkin'. What we do know however, is that Surfer Girl seems to think that "Street Fighter IV is 2d/3d/cell-shaded on the PS360," and sometimes she says things that are true.

It does look as if 1UP may have the exclusive, and may be revealing the game this Thursday, so keep your pants on. We'll be on high-alerted for any and all Street Fighter IV related info that may crop up this week. Stay tuned.

Whatever, it's fine. Either way.
I want a nex gen fighter with the features and moves of street fighter, and i'm going to get it.

BFeld13 at 12/04/2007 20:21

Hot!

Variable Gear at 12/04/2007 20:22

@ Reaprar:

A 2.5D Street Fighter could be badass!

Lukich at 12/04/2007 20:24

Thursday is going to be an interesting day. Could either be fucking awesome news or horrible news. 2D FTW!

SR388 at 12/04/2007 20:30

I can not wait to play this game. I have been playing a ton of SFIII: 3rd strike for the past few weeks.

AgentMOO at 12/04/2007 20:35

Surfer girl says its going to be controlled by a remote "pad" of some sort that is either wired or wireless. I can't wait!

Blommen at 12/04/2007 20:49

I can't wait for some gameplay vids. This game is gonna kick every other fighter in the nuts!

Shin Oni at 12/04/2007 20:54

Ryu for top tier this time plz.

and for goodness sakes needs moar Zakura and Karinz.

Magesx at 12/04/2007 20:58

Ehh, don't care.

Cheeburga at 12/04/2007 21:01

I think they will put in more of the characters from the second one to reach more people.
Everyone knows the originals.

A New Challenger at 12/04/2007 21:07

You know, I honestly all but forgot this game was on the way until now.

mispelt at 12/04/2007 21:13

I'm getting tired of this hype-mongering "announcement about an announcement" crap. At least there wasn't a countdown page leading up to this one.

@reaprar:

See, this is why you don't belong in discourse, I'm sure MOO meant it as a joke. bros don' know 'bout ma ironiez.

Sharpless at 12/04/2007 21:17

Reaprar, I'm pretty sure the "remote pad" line was humor, as does commonly occur here on the Destructoid.com.

Surfer Girl is having my babeez.

imbeta at 12/04/2007 21:35

woooo...

Clockwork at 12/04/2007 21:47

It's about time. You know what I'm most excited about?

We get to find out what the fuck the game is

SDogg554 at 12/04/2007 21:48

2D street fighter 4 + cool physics/effects + HD sprites = *fap fap fap*

Cheeburga at 12/04/2007 21:50

HADOKEN!

Pacman at 12/04/2007 21:51

they better not do some stupid shit like announce more announcements on Thursday.

"It's about time. You know what I'm most excited about?

We get to find out what the fuck the game is"

boy, let's hope so

Necros at 12/04/2007 22:03

When has Surfer Girl ever been right? I have not seen her prove a single one of her claims.

SourGr8pes at 12/04/2007 22:09

SurferGirl reports that Ken and/or Ryu could or could possibly not be in the new Street Fighter IV.

That is all.

catsithx at 12/04/2007 22:14

cant wait can't wait please don't screw this up capcom

Y0j1mb0 at 12/04/2007 22:15

@Necros:

Agreed. Surfer Girl is forever using that ol' shtick of throwing out general comments here and there hoping one will stick to the wall.

"Yes there will be a sequel to some popular game.."-Surfer Girl

no shit.

Let's hope this Street Fighter coming up wont be this...

Jonathan Holmes at 12/04/2007 22:28

I'm excited to know one thing or another about this game. It coudl really go either way at this point.

I'm hoping it's a MMOVFG (Massive Multiplayer Online VS Fighting Game). Anything less would be anti-climactic at this point.

Shin Oni at 12/04/2007 22:29

last thing we need is another EX style street fighter.

keep it 2d (I don't even care if it's like 2.5d. just keep it 2d gameplay) and bring back some of those great ass characters from alpha and SFII series.

Wedge at 12/04/2007 22:56

Like I said before, all it needs to be is Project Justice 3, and it will rule.

Wedge at 12/04/2007 22:56

Errr Rival Schools 3. I just saw a copy of Project Justice go up on Goozex, shut up =O.

Tex at 12/04/2007 23:08

Forget Ryu, Dudley for top tier plz!

grrza at 12/04/2007 23:12

needs more chun li.

Eques-Ardor at 12/04/2007 23:12

Viewtiful Joe x Street Fighter = awesommmme.

I think 2.5D cel-shading is what Surfer Girl means.

AgentMOO at 12/04/2007 23:28

I never name my sources... oh wait I just did

Cheeburga at 12/04/2007 23:28

Ken > all

vexed alex at 12/04/2007 23:52

Where the fuck is my HD Remix? WHERE?!

mispelt at 12/05/2007 00:27

I just read that Surfer Girl said the new SF may or may not be a game.com exclusive.

Fading Star at 12/05/2007 00:39

Sounds cool. RYU!

0bshaky at 12/05/2007 01:27

Chun Li showing her panties when getting hit by a sweep kick, pausing, and staring and some pixelated crotch for hours.

Classic.

Ndizi at 12/05/2007 01:52

I'm so tired of announcments of announcements.

16bitmonster at 12/05/2007 03:14

@Ndizi
i'm tired of your icon.. and i just saw it for the first time in my life.

DieMore at 12/05/2007 04:16

I cannot belive i hadn't seen any news off this till now.

Ndizi at 12/05/2007 05:19

@Moth

your mom =P

freeman1 at 12/05/2007 05:34

Have they even said what consoles this is on yet?

Paustinj at 12/05/2007 07:51

360 and PS3 ^

It better be 2D, although 2.5 D sounds intriguing. They need to have all the characters from II and III and then add more with IV.

freeman1 at 12/05/2007 08:01

When did they say that it was on 360/PS3? All I saw was that first video.

And it'll probably be like Street Fighter 3 was. There will be a few returning characters, and the rest of the roster will be new characters.

king3vbo at 12/05/2007 10:38

Oh man I cant wait!!!
