I've heard this too, but not from any guidebook/in-game character profile. I *think* it started as a rumor when Bridget's later official art (around the time of Isuka, mostly) showed him with what looked like small boobs. People either assumed he had been retconned as a girl or made a hermaphrodite, despite the character's constant intentions to "be manlier". It's probably just an over-exaggerated chest, a fluke in the art, or he's wearing a stuffed bra or something under his gown. Sammy claims he's just a gender-confused boy who was raised as a girl to avoid some superstition involving twins born of the same gender in his universe's England.

Ah, this is interesting. I always thought Capcom lost their Marvel license years ago, and that's why we haven't seen another MvC game. If they did make another one, I wonder what they would do with it - or who they'd put in it!

The parry system was quite excellent, i might say. I think the game looks pretty good, but i've my personal opinions regarding its desireability. I was seriously hoping for a 2-D game, but thats me. It seems it may actually play like SF EX. - 3D Look, 2-D playable. As of NOW, im not truly or terribly impressed, but perhaps time will tell and also the game is obviously at its beta stages. Here's hoping Shimomura-dono will do the music chores :). It only makes perfect damn sense. I swear i dont want any techno BS, while techno isnt terrible, i'd prefer to go back to its 'composed theme' roots and Shimomura-dono was and IS the creator of such legendary themes for such legendary characters.

@Nall, can we say "Marvel & DC vs. Capcom: The Megafest"? LOL!

@RYU LOL! one of the pics has air blocking = FTW lol!

Hey, If they made it, I'd play it. MvC2 took off in a big way at tournies. It's not nearly as popular now, but if Capcom is looking to score with the 2D crowd this is the way to do it. We need more 2D stuff anyway, though KoFXII is looking interesting.

To be honest, I think Dark Phoenix would be a cool enemy boss. They could make a story that Dark Phoenix comes back and is not satisfied with destorying just one universe but multiple universes and dimensions, and she finds herself targeting the capcom universe..blablabla. lol

SF4 First gameplay & developer chat

I'm donwloading it right now. It may take a while, since it's a pretty heavy file.

You know, in motion when I wasn't having to watch a bunch of fags talking, the game doesn't look half bad.

If only it wern't being hammered so bad, maybe the rest of us would be able to see it... lame.

MORE LINKS! Nice to see Street Fighter getting traffic that you'd expect from something like Halo or GTA. Guy at another board I visit is possibly working on clipping out all the 1Up guys' talking into a gameplay only video, may or may not happen in like 30 minutes.

Yeah, that's why I' downloading the damn video (290 mb). Streaming is impossible. It got like 16.000 views in 10 min!! At least is good to see that many people are interested in the game.

Try the download links from the page. I'm downloading at max speed. Still, 5 more minutes to finish.

Watching it now. I'm really feeling the graphics and the gameplay. I do notice some sf3 features like Ryu's 2-button hurricane kick


EDIT : This is definately a win lol

Yay, more dead links and a direct copy/paste of someone else's entire post from another forum. The middle link works, but still.

Okay, I just watched it. Out of the entire 20 minutes, there's possibly a minute of gameplay, and the rest is a bunch of guys talking about the physics of the game and new elements. If I wanted that, I'd go to shoryuken. But it looks really good, and I love the style that the game has. I look forward to seeing more of this game in the future.

Ok, so according to the interview, the "blocking system" is kinda like the SVC:Chaos cancel system, right? Or the Roman Cancel of Guilty Gear. Canceling one move into another and end it with a super art or ex-move. This will surely bring a lot of creativity to the game. I can already see youtube loaded with 1000 combo videos, like GGXX already has.

So far, I'm liking the gameplay. It looks pretty damn fast and it seems it will be great for beginners and advanced players alike.

I totally hate Ryu's face though. I mean, WTF is this???

EDIT: Sorry, I meant "Blocking", not "Saving".

Who knows really. As long as they take their time with the game, I have alot of faith in it despite the fact everyone is already calling it GGX features or whatever. Like one of the dudes mentioned, this game should come out around 2009. The whole mentioning on the revenge system is another thumbs up for show. From the look of that pic Dizzy posted, it does look kinda horrible. Looks like a soup'd up Josh Hartnett. I mean it looks nothing like the first teaser vid. He's missing more hair around that lousy headband he calls an inquiry (sf:a the movie).


But anyway, if this came out the same time frame as SC4 and Tekken 6, you already know where the faces will turn to. So why release it the same year with HD Remix? =/.All that's left to find out about is KOF12 since Samurai Spirits Zen (or Sen) is just as good lookin as a tekken 5 game. Hopefully better than KOFMI:rA.

Your words are as empty as your soul, Lix.

Oh christ, here:

YouTube - Street Fighter 4 Gameplay Video!

There isn't much use in truncated links copied from somewhere else. I'm just saying.

I mean, what can I say to that? I attempt to parse some information along, you bust my balls. I mean, you want me to get my fucking shine box, now?

In all seriousness, I posted a link with no fags talking. Justice is served.

thanks for links,I like the gameplay 2.5D,I can't wait to play it.

Oh don't even act like you put effort into your post. You pasted a bunch of links, and to which only one of them worked. This is because they were shortened in length when posted on another forum by another person. Perhaps you should think about that the next time you directly plagiarize information from another location. There's no point passing information along if it's fucking useless to everyone else.

Dude, calm down, I was joking but apparently I need to cut myself. I get what you were getting at, I'm in my place. In the prime of newly circulating information, I posted some links that weren't all functioning and only one was working at the time. How dare I try to share information, shame on me! Why do you have to do this all the time, I thought you said you changed? Christ, dude, you gonna cut ME a break for once.

Elixir has been issued an infraction for needless trolling and has also been banned from this thread.

He should think before spouting off like that. He's in no position to throw stones.

Pretty sweet, just a shame that they didn't just give us just the raw/untampered gameplay footage. Eg. without the interview, and 1up staff/editor input and the footage being spliced in around it. Heh, would have been nice if they just showed the gameplay footage in its original form of like a 1 round match against Ryu and Ken.

If what I've heard from the vid is correct (from the short viewings of the gameplay footage), then sounds like the game's BGM won't really stand out interms of character themes, which is unfortunate but hopefully changes as production moves along.

Here are some more screenshots for the game.


I just happened to come across this, and doesn't seem like anyone posted it yet.

Looking at those face expressions when you get nailed with a super amuses me. All cartoony and "realistic" is good enough. Good find though, link. Ken loooks like that Blanka-loses portrait in the 10 second countdown.

Are they turning Street Fighter into some kind of joke franchise now?

Everything was presented in a pretty serious manner in III...I still don't get what they're trying to do with 4. Looks to me like they just wanted to create a playful remake of the original Street Fighter II...because this definitely isn't any kind of evolution of the series.
