I know professional gaming is real and all, but I just dont understand watching other people play games. Maybe they said the same thing about basketball.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np_5BHmaSI4 this upset was cool, but I agree with you. I would rather play than watch.

When it comes to fighting games I like watching short videos to get ideas for how to improve my game. That being said, I never watch more than ten minutes worth of video per sitting.

Lobby matches like in HD Remix (where two people play, everyone else watches from a queue, then when that match ends the winner stays and the next person in line jumps in, etc) are a great way to just hang out with a group of friends, incorporate multiplayer fighting into something that's normally restricted to two players, and to get better by seeing what other people are doing.

How about 2 v 2 somehow? Or a survival mode with "waves" of enemies w/ 1 bar of health? No matter what, SFIV is rad.

Maybe it's too soon for a 2 on 2.

I would hate to be on the other side of a match vs. 2 pros.
My lifeless body would remain in the air throughout the entire round.

I actually like her look and the fact that for the first time in Street Fighter history they're introducing Tae kwon do. And seriously, are you really gonna complain about character designs after Street Fighter 3. Sure SF3 is still one of the best fighters I've ever played, but it surely wasn't because of the characters.

How bout releasing the improvements as DLC for those who originally supported the game by purchasing it? I'm fine paying for the extra content but I dread having to buy the extra content bundled with the original game.

I thought Joystiq reported that it would be reworked to change the game engine and address several over-powered moves. Capcom says it will be cheaper too, but I don't know about anythin over $35.00.

That Juri character design is kind of horrible.
More power to Capcom for getting back into the swing of reiterating the same iteration (not that I didn't see it coming), but as a lifelong SF fan, I gotta say it is finally starting to wear on me. There's really only so much they can do before they break down the series' cornerstones and have something completely different and less alluring...

It's more like their going back to JoJo for more designs. Sooner or later we're gonna have a character that looks like Kaykoin and Weather Report.

Augment the replay feature? Awesome. Maybe they can turn it into something that's actually usable... take a look at Brawl and BlazBlue, Capcom!

More characters? Sweet. As long as they're good... half the cast in SFIV, I passed on using. Whereas in something like Brawl or BlazBlue, every character was not only fun to use, some surprised me, as I would have passed on them by appearance alone, but they were a lot of fun to use, like Luigi, Arakune, Iron Tager and Wario.

Expand online? How 'bout you just make it better... more reliable. I'm so sick of taking 5-10 minutes to get into a fight because when I search for a game, it continuously tells me that "no game sessions are found". I know people out there still play... >.>

Lastly, but not leastly, I hope Capcom adds more meat to the bones of SFIV. Sure, its an awesome fighter, but compared to the likes of BlazBlue, its simply bare bones. No character specific intros? One minute intro/outro animations? No character specific dialogue? That's what brings a fighter to life... great gameplay is one thing, but pulling you into your character is a whole 'nother story.

And, finally... Karin, Elena, Adon, Oro and Makoto, please, Capcom (SFIV is all about rivals, yet I see no Adon for Sagat, Karin for Sakura - what's up with that?).

Because that's his Japanese name.
M. Bison is Vega.
Vega is Balrog,
And Balrog is M. Bison
(America --> Japan)

The reason they changed, is because M. Bison is too much like MIke Tyson, who is also a big black boxer... there might have been confusion about copyrights and likeness, and that junk...
So, Capcom changed it around.

I hope they add the feature where at the select screen, your opponent can't see who you choose like it was done for the championship mode. make that the norm.

Sagat is one of the most unbalanced characters in SFIV, so ummm, yeah he needs to be nerfed. No fun seeing non-stop Sagat vs. Sagat matches online.

Do you'll actually play SF4? The things Ryu and Zangief can get away with seems more unbalanced than Sagat to me.

Does Capcom just believe that SF3 was THAT much of a failure? Why can't they just bring in a SF3 character or two?

5 characters still have not been announced. I'm really hoping they add Ibuki
But apparently, most people who played SF3 may have either not cared about it or hated it maybe because it was too different from SF2 and we probably won't be seeing an HD Remix of SF3 later.

Have you played as Yun in Capcom Fighting Evolution? I'll bet you haven't.

3 characters do not translate well outside of the 3 fighting engine. No parries = FAIL. However, the parry system is what ruined 3 (on a pro level). That gives me an excuse to post this gem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnEWSO6NrQo

D'oh...been too long since I've played CFJ.
3 chars have parry in CFJ.

But yeah...unless they add parries to 3 chars in SF4, they would suck too bad.

Man, I could watch 2:37 and beyond in that video a million times and it never gets old.
