Japan continues to get some major Street Fighter IV loving as evidence by the new Street Fighter IV Arcade testing. This latest build of the game has El Fuerte as a playable character and is said to have Vega and M.Bison as playable fighters as well. Can't confirm Vega and M. Bison returning for sure until we see some pictures or video, but we do have this video of El Fuerte battling it out with Zangief after the jump.

This latest testing of the game has also revealed a new fighter as evidence by this first video above. His name is Rufus and he's fatter than E. Honda. Even though he's obese like crazy, he seems to move pretty fast still.

I wasn't really sure about El Fuerte at first, but seeing him in action has made me like the guy now. His moves look to be extremely quick, kind of like Vega. What do you all think of El Fuerte and Rufus?

I would like to see a special guest fighter Dante. Why not? They're both Capcom, and Dante has some pretty quick and sick moves. If Soul Calibur can add Vader + Yoda and SSBB can add Snake (WTF, FROM PS3 TO WII?) then I don't see why not. Special guest fighters seem to be getting all the craze right now too.

Never been a big SF fan, but the sloshing gut on Rufus is kind of unparalleled. It looks really good. Like a super-fatass in a monk's robe.

@Kalmah - Snake was on the Big N's console long before any of Sony's.

Rufus looks like he can flow. I bet it will be a blast to use him. He's just too fucking round. He looks like a clown or something... I know the game is not meant to be realistic but come on...

El Farte looks really cheap. I like him though. He plays like a Kinnikuman character somehow... In fact I'm pretty sure his finisher is the same thing as Wally Tusket's "Ice Rock Driver"

Yet another story that I don't care about... The Street Fighter has no place in the 3D realm. Or has everyone forgotten about Street Fighter EX?

Oh man. I'm tired of everyone shitting all over EX. If you've ever spent a decent amount of time with Street Fighter EX 3 you know what I'm talking about. Okay, the "A.I." is weak in that game but if you have someone to play with you will never get tired of that game. I've logged more hours on EX3 than any other game EVER. And that's saying a lot.

To each his pwn I guess
