New SFIV Video: Gameplay of New Characters

by Terrence Stasse { Feb 19th 2008 at 12:30PM }

Last week we got a glimpse of the new Street Fighter IV character and wondered how he'd fight, this week we get to see him do so. This new promotional video of the game shows of all of the revealed characters and plenty of gameplay. The jury is still out for us on a few minor details (moving of camera, certain specifics of character design, etc) but all in all it looks really good. The gameplay clips show some returning moves and show us some never before seen combo footage, though you do need to be quick to spot it as it's only there for a few seconds before the special move. With the game releasing in late summer to Japanese arcades, we could see this at about this time next year, or even earlier if we're lucky.

Looks a bit too cartoony. They already tried that direction and it didn't work.

Wow. I think that might be one of the (I really don't want to say something mean here, but I. Can't. Help. Myself) dumbest things I've ever heard anyone say about Street Fighter.

certainly looks interesting - graphics are excellent - SF is the king of beat em ups anyhow !! KEN all the way !!!

This just feels like SFII with the graphics redone... which is still awesome.

It looks just like ST in 3-D ... kind of pointless. I hope some SF vets start reporting on how different/the same SFIV actually plays. I'm worried this is just going to be a sloppy (it IS 3-D) SFII. If there's no reason in moving to 3-D other than its commercially viable, that's not very exciting.

Ok I'm getting this now for sure, but still, Game Videos runs like garbage.

Lol the entire game only has one stage. =P.

Although I'm 30 now (played the Street Fighter franchise since 16 years ago--damn, lol), this game'll never get old. It looks pretty damn sweet. Can't wait. I'll for sure be getting it.

As a fan of SFIII: 3rd Strike who's been playing it for a near decade, I have to say this game looks really, really bad. The character animations and design are totally abysmal. I hope King of Fighters 12 comes out for the 360.

This game looks so amazing. I used to love my fighting games but the last few years had sadly not yielded much. With the new Soul caliber and not this I am getting super stoked for some more fighting games. And oh yeah there is another Mortal Kombat in the works....I just with a new iteration of Samurai Showdown and Killer Instinct would drop to...

This just bumped into my top 5 games of 2008 along with MGS4, Little Big Planet, Alan Wake (hopefully 2008), Smash Bros Brawl and Fallout 3.
