Thank you for sharing! :)

Rock solid art style, I love it. Looks beautiful. I'm not usually into Street Fighter, but this footage makes me want to give it a shot.

This looks pretty nice and I'll most likely get it. I still don't like the art style that much though and wish they would translate the old Capcom style (some of you will know what I'm talking about) to 3D space. The old style of Capcom art was some of the best anywhere but sadly I haven't seen it in these newer street fighter games.

Aaaanndd the hulk characters are back. After the next set of 4 SFV installments maybe it will get better...after they slowly put back all the characters they removed from the first SFV game.

@ those blurry polygonal knuckles, I'm totally not paying $60 for this on PC, $29.99 for this sounds better.

@GunsnSwords You want skinny fighters?

Commented on 2014-12-07 11:13:23

No proportional ones, that's all. chun li still has lunch lady feet and hands, she's really not supposed to be like that. MVC3's version i think was the best.

way better looking.

I agree.
SF4 look like bodybuilders fighting, ugly as hell IMO.
MvC3 had the best design of both Ryu and Chun Li. Lean but yet muscular.

Commented on 2014-12-07 11:57:59

Shes not supposed to be like what? Pretty sure its up to the designers and producers to decide, not your personal tastes :P

That said, the character designs in SF overall are terrible imo. Ranging from boring to just bizarre. Sf3 had the best cast, easily.

I've loved Chun Li forever, and she looks beautiful ;P

I can't wait. And I'm so pleased with crossplay. The PC just got their first viable online fighting game.

Tekken 7 is ocming to PC as well...though i suppose it'll be a wasteland unless there's crossplay there as well.

There are an increasing number of solid fighters on the platform, but the communities are usually pretty small.

Ultra averages about 1000 peak players on Steam: http://steamcharts.com/app/45760

That's a manageable community, but crossplay should improve the player pool dramatically.

I'll get this...only if the soundtrack is by Master P! And cammy does a twerks, as her victory move. Those are my demands.

The crossplay function might make me consider the PC version. I mean the online mode in SFIV on PC right now is like a damn ghost town. Still get plenty of matches both in ranked and free in TTT2, takes me ages to find a single match in Whatever the latest ultra mega turbo hyper dodecahedron platinum tinsel version of SFIV is.
