So, what would you imagine to be included in a special edition version of Capcom's upcoming pseudo-expansion pack, Super Street Fighter IV? Perhaps a FightStick emblazoned with the personas of the game's new characters? That's a pretty good guess, but the correct answer was, of course, a USB flash drive, a gym bag, a head band, a Dudley T-shirt and an aluminum water bottle. Sorry! You were so close.
Capcom recently began taking pre-orders on the "Dojo Edition" of SSFIV, which retails for a crisp $79.99. Yes, that's double the price of the standalone game -- however, the standalone game won't make you the envy of all the folks at your local workout center. We think that notoriety would be worth the extra cash.

No thanks, I'll take the regular edition. A headband, t-shirt, gym bag, and water bottle are not worth an extra $40.

Yeah. With the amazing cartridge Capcom did for MegaMan, and the rich history of Street Fighter, I would expect a little more creativity. You know, like the boxing gloves promotion. Or a custom carved faceplate for the fighting sticks. A Hakan vs Juri LCD fighter. How about a Xbox 360 faceplate that integrates those quarter slots for holding your place in a fight?
Oh well. At least they tried something.

I bought $8 worth of costumes for the original SF4 (bad move.) I just sold SF4 and don't plan to buy the new one, but if I did... does anyone know if my old DLC will work in the new SSF4 game? I think I read one person claim that it will but I don't know if that's true or what the source of the info is. Thanks.

Sorry, as cool as that bundle is, it's not worth $40.

I'm more interested with what I could get with my old SF4 copy seeing how nobody knows what it even is.

Maybe its because I spent too much time in the sun today, but that bundle actually looks very appealing. Its the first time I am actually interested in a premium game bundle. I can see myself rocking that gear in the park, running. I'm gonna get all the laydeis.

Nah no thanks, although I still use my GTA4 duffel bag from way back when.

Duuuuude, as do I! Except one of the Zippers doesn't work anymore, I need to be more careful.
Back on topic, I might get this pre-order for the wife because I use my GTA4 bag alot, and she would like this one for when she hits the gym. :D

What the hell.
I bought the SFIV Collectors Edition and that came with a crappy movie and a toy! This is 10000x better in comparison!

Of all the characters to put on a shirt they chose Dudley? C'mon.

Hey, I'm not sayin Dudley is a bad character, I'm just saying that if I am gonna get a SF4 tshirt I would much rather have one with Akuma's Raging demon pose or any other really cool thing associated with Street Fighter.
Dudley isn't usually the "cool" of SF.

I'd wear a dudley shirt over an akuma raging demon shirt because I don't want to seem like a scrub or poser. Representing something as iconic as street fighter doesn't require the iconic images. It's like a douche trying too hard to not be a douche when he clearly is. With that said, that shirt is horribly ugly. The horrible shade of red alone will get you picked out of a crowd in a second and I have no interest in wearing a union jack. If I was to design a street fighter shirt, it would be a lot cooler than a rectangle iron on image... those are tacky.
Side note, the USB drive holds street fighter images and artwork goodies.
I wonder how big that bag is... I bet it's one of those really small ones that barely fit around a pair of shoes. Using that 360 case as a guide, it's looking pretty small.

Sweet bag, but the water-bottle and sweat band........ sadly the gamers who'd wear this will need it whenever they travel outside their front door. I'm surprised it didn't come with a towel instead of a shirt.
