The Big ass Street Fighter IV thread

[O-Fear]

New character. named Abel.

"The new World Warrior is Abel. Described as "a man without a past," Abel has gathered what little clues he can as he searches for remaining members of Shadoloo. As his tag line suggests, he has a terrible case of amnesia."

Sweet, but still no ninjas.

As I said on the official forum. He's generic as HELL.

 

Bad Story.

Bad Looking.

Bad Design.

 

The only plus side is it looked likes they ripped him straight out of the early 90s/late 80s.

Its kinda sad that such a bad new character still gets me excited simply because its actually a new Street Fighter.

[L.S.D]

It's bad? I'll reserve the comments until i actually see how he plays.

[O-Fear]

You know what will be cool? to see this dude (below) from Rival Schools (or some other fighters from that game) featuring in SF4

I mean RS has a badass fighters and I personly prefer to see reused fighters instead of some lame new fighters who has no story and their design is boring and most of the time ugly *cough*Abel*cough*

What do you think?

 

[Diso]

First pic of him reminded me of some rugby/soccer player. Looks somewhat generic to me, but I'll wait for videos and crap.

Alright, Officially, I'm slumped. When Ono meant ST, he really meant it, Chunny is all ST. Charge fireball, charge super, charge ultra too. They even added her now crappy overhead kick from Alpha (it was the bomb in Alpha 2, but sucked completely in A3). A COMPLETE step back from what we've seen in CvS2 and Third Strike.

The visuals make me want to puke. The art style is disgusting.

Maybe I just need to see it in motion, or maybe it really IS that bad.

They shouldn't bring anymore new characters in, what they should do is bring in characters from Street Fight III and Alpha.

[BlackKnight]

They shouldn't bring anymore new characters in, what they should do is bring in characters from Street Fight III and Alpha.

 

Agreed. Or at least bring in more familiar faces before introducing these shallow new designs.

 

Oh and SF1 too. I'm hooked on my Eagle. Retsu not so much but I don't like any of the other SF ninja types. I don't count Vega as a ninja so yeh..
