Famitsu drops avalanche of SFIV screens

by Richard Mitchell { Feb 7th 2008 at 5:00PM }

With the revelation that the playable cast of Street Fighter II would be returning for Street Fighter IV came one burning question: where are the damned pictures? Of course, the story originated from Japanese gaming mag Famitsu, so the answer is pretty simple. Famitsu has now been so gracious as to put the screens on their website for all to see. All told we have in-game shots of Chun-Li, Blanka, Zangief, Guile, E. Honda, Dhalsim, and newcomer Crimson Viper (how come everyone else gets normal names?). The article also contains shots of some of Ryu's super move as well as the new Saving Attack system. In the Saving Attack sequence of images, Ryu blocks Ken's fireball and then quickly counter attacks, knocking Ken to the ground. Good stuff, and reason for Street Fighter fans to take notice.

I don't quite understand E,Honda's gut/six-pack.

Can't wait for the game though.

Now that you mention it, that does look incredibly ridiculous.

It looks like the entire cast is incredibly ridiculous. o_O

game looks sweet! brings back SF memories.

As for ehondas six pack, what do you expect. The guy is sumo wrestler size but has muscle instead of fat. Do you think a sumo wrestler could jump like he does with fat? hehe :)

Is it just me or are Chun Li's thighs bigger than they used to be?

Its from nearly 2 decades of super sonic kicks.

Ugly ass game. Pure garbage.

Damn Capcom!!!

I haven't been keeping up with this game, so sorry if this is widely known - but is this going to be an XBLA release or an actual packaged game?

Anticrawl @ Feb 7th 2008 10:07PM

Don't fret, not much is known about the game other than it will feature stylized 3d objects that sounds cool on paper but ends up creating hidious characters.

By the way it is a packaged full price retail game.

I guess i've been doing the wrong leg excercises...

I'm droping the 700lb leg press from my workout and just doing a few 2 minute spirts of supersonic kicks from now on...

man those thing are big... legs i mean...pufferfish....

Anticrawl @ Feb 7th 2008 10:38PM

Leg press doesn't really do much for anyone other than boost their confidence. Hell I started out at 700ish lbs my freshman year in highschool and by senior year we didn't have enough weight to max it out. Squats and lunges are better for building the legs. That and running stadiums and in the sand.
