Capcom officially announced development of the true successor to the fighting game king, Street Fighter 4, today. HEL YEH. It's a year or so out from release now, but we can assume it will be (at least) for 360 and PS3 (and hopefully online!.)
They are also making a new next-gen BIONIC COMMANDO, as well as the followup to the Phoenix Wright series "Ace Attorney: Apollo Justice", and porting Lost Planet to PS3.

Here's one that works

If it ends up looking anything like that trailer, I will have many boners for this game.
Wow thats a pretty sweet teaser. If the whole game looks like that then I'm sold
If this is coming to 360, then I am completely sold whether the game looks like this or not.
If they did all 2d gameplay, but with 3d cel/paint/whateveryoucallit from the trailer -shaded graphics, add in online play, this game would be ownage enough to not have enough street fighter for another 10 years.
This may seem contradictory, but while I do like the overall look, I don't like the character design at all. They kind of seem to change with the angle you're looking at them, but Ryu looks like a dumb meat-head. Maybe I'm just too picky about characters I really like. Other than that, I loved the look; Like the whole style of everything looking like a drawing. It was really cool how you could see the "chi energy" or whatever during the whole fight, and how it would get pushed around as they fought (and sucked in during making a fireball).
wow, that was pretty cool. Looks like it would be an opening CG or something. I'm curious if they're gonna try making the jump to 3d again. I hope they get the same composer from Street Fighter 3 Third Strike. I love that sound track and the remixes even more.
Fuck. Yes. I can't wait for a new Street Fighter. That video was pretty badass too. I'm anxious to find out more about it.
Bionic Commando trailer:
http://www.dailymotion.com/tag/jeux/video/x38eke_bionic-commando-trailer_videogames
Sweet remix of the oldschool music playing in the background, and the gameplay looks like its carrying the spirit of the original. Let's hope you still can't jump!
Bionic Commando on 360?
SOLD!
As for classic BC on XBLA, it'd likely have to be the arcade version.
The NES one owns the arcade version though :(
Much like Ninja Gaiden.
First screenshots and info! This is gonna be sick as hell! SHORRRYUUUUKEN!
http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3164756
3d graphics with straight up 2d gameplay, hel yeh.
I'd have to be downright crazy to pass this up. I may not have been great at the SF games, but I was certainly no slouch. Though if you really wanted to be cheesy, you either picked Ryu, Ken or Dhalsim and spammed fireballs, or used Bison and spammed psycho crusher. I wonder if the end boss will be as crazy as Gill.
Thats why you get it on 360, the obvious platform of choice if you want to play you console games online.
And what's not to "trust" about that screenshot?
And yet you bought a PS3? Yeah, because the library is just OVERFLOWING with awesome titles, especially in the genres you like.
Jip jap RPGS? Oh wow, there's TWO!
Fighting games? Ahhh shit, theres ONE... how can you complete your VG collection with so many choices?
Good thing they have online in VF5 to at least give some incentive to buy.... ohhhhh wait that was only on the 360 rev...
Well, if the 360 can make a convert out of someone like me who was once so die-hard anti-Xbox, you know it's got something.
Any doubts should be put to rest with this. The game looks TIGHT AS HELL. The animation is faster and smoother than I could have imagined, and the gameplay sounds intense.
EDIT: The streaming vid isn't working too well right now since EVERYONE ON THE FREAKIN INTERNET is trying to watch it. Here's direct downloads:
WMV: http://gamevideos.com/download?videoId=16818&url=http%3a%2f%2fdownload.gamevideos.com%2f16818%2fgv.com.1upshow.sfiv_640x360.wmv

No dogs. No hairy bush nuns. Just Street-fuckn'-Fighter.
ive seen a video that shows gameplay. right now my only concern is the camera angles n some moves could be problematic for combos.
Street Fighter IV?
{Yes, please.}
Nice to see them going back to their simpler roots with this one.
Fuck. Yeah.
I'll be interested to see how many old characters come back. I suppose we could rule out Bison, since he's officially dead thanks to Akuma. But if Akuma can trash a submarine with his bare hands, Bison can come back to the land of the living, though I don't see Capcom doing that. Stranger things have happend though.
:O Wonder if this is confirmation that Chun-Li's thighs will finally be selectable for play!
HEL YEH, Blanka like a mutha fucker! I love the character designs. Guile looks like a total badass... BISOONNNNNNN!!!! SONIC-KABOOM!
I'll just make it simple again. Fuck. Yeah.
Oh shiiiiiiiit, that looks tight as hell. The only thing I don't like is the 2 new characters they've shown so far. They look like shitty King of Fighters rejects.
Otherwise the game is looking totally fantastic!
New Trailer for E3. http://kotaku.com/5025592/street-fighter-ivs-e3-trailer haha.
Ryu should not sound like that. Otherwise I can't wait. Coming to PC too.
http://blog-imgs-27.fc2.com/t/o/k/tokkablog/play.html?id=sm5773286, and it's awesome. There's some random moonspeak that scrolls over it though... so if that get annoying here's the considerably lower quality YouTube version haha.
Long story short, I was down for this game since its announcement. Now though, I'm psyched beyond reason for the game haha. This trailer combined with http://www.shoryuken.com/?p=577, and I'm positive I'll be playing the hell out of it. My brother and I already have the PS3 Special Edition preordered, and it's more than likely I'll get a 360 version on top of that. I can't wait, February can't come any sooner!
something has been bugging me. why does a game called street fighter 4 look so much like street fighter 2? but perhaps its for the best that i have no real expectations for this game.
edit: i posted that before watching the video D posted. its neat how even though its 3d it looks stylistically somewhere between sfa3 and sf3 and i didnt realize it had characters from sfa. still i dont like guile i want charlie in it =( oh well i still have sfa3 on my psp i just bought. before i watched that i thought it was gonna turn out like rival schools with better graphics.
dear lord.... im watching some videos on youtube and i really hope you can turn the announcer off.
Hmmm why does a Street Fighter game look like other Street Fighter games? I don't know... seems weird to me!
They shoulda taken the art direction from Bubsy the Bobcat IMO.
Seriously, Alisha.
You are such a retro-softcore gamer now, I don't think you need to even concern yourself with reading about any new game coming out. I've said it before; you never accept anything new, you just want the same old games from 10 years ago. Thats cool, stick with the old ones, there's tons out there. Just don't go deluding yourself that you're so HxCore and all these newfangled games are just shitty and don't have the spirit, quality, or challenge of the "good old days."
SF4 is the most exciting fighting game to come out since... SF3! You are honestly the only person I've ever seen who is disappointed by how its turning out at this point. When it was first shown/announced there were lots of detractors, but now that we can actually see how the game plays, how the system works, people getting their actual HANDS ON the game in the arcades... there is no doubt this is going to be astounding. If you can't get hyped for god damned 100% brand new Street-Fucking-Fighter game then honestly I think its time to move on from gaming.
EDIT: The announcer is fucking awesome. We're gonna have catch phrases from him for years to come.
wat???
I think Alisha is trolling. She's gotta be trolling.
Ummm Charlie IS in the game.
http://kotaku.com/5143616/your-comprehensive-list-o-street-fighter-iv-achievements. They range from "Haha that's easy!" to "WTF ARE YOU SERIOUS!?" Needless to say, if anyone (like myself) is aiming for 1000 points, a LOT of X Box Live matches are ahead. I got 1000 points on Soul Calibur IV, and hopefully I can do the same for this game, bring it!
Dayum, thats a lot of XBL achievements. You got your work cut out for you, D.
So who's up for some laggy matches when this comes out? I'll make a sandwich after I throw a fireball. I'll know we lost connection when I hit you with 5 hadukens in a row with no response. But seriously I'm psyched for this game after viewing the achievments. I don't even care how meathead the characters look now.
Vitamin D Vs Wiryu
Wiryu vs Tanshin (with moustache???)
what's with my face on all the fat dudes? haha
I dunno, it just worked out that way! You can't deny the Rufus video matches like... perfect with your face though.
Oh JAM! My gamestop got it in early, so I picked it up on the way to work! Now I just have to suffer till 8:30pm to get home and play it
They were out of the saturn-style controllers though :(
Fucking bullshit. I went into my gamestop and the guy said they weren't fucking selling it till 6PM fuck that shit man. Last time I ever buy shit from that Gamestop.
Haha, damn that sucks. My gamestop actually personally called me at like 10 am and said they had it in early :O
Talk about service!
Great mother of fuck. Me and D we're housing it up online when all of a sudden my screen freaks out. I turn my 360 back on and I have a Red Light and an Error message saying E-&4 and call customer service. :(
Impeccable fucking timing.
Damn man, that sucks =/. That's like the worst timing ever. I hope you get your 360 fixed up soon, it was mad fun playing haha. I played a bunch of matches with Crush last night too, this game is fun as hell haha. I suggest to anyone getting the game to check out the Challenge Mode with your favorite character and see how far it takes you. When you start to tread into the Hard challenges, the game unofficially teaches you how to play the game. You learn how to the Focus Attack works in more advanced ways (like being able to cancel special moves with it). I'm picking up the PS3 SE today, and hopefully my Fightpad for 360 as well. THIS IS GONNA BE ONE HELL OF A SHOW!
Hell yeah man, this game is just like Rival Schools but with better graphics!
Hahaha, but seriously. I haven't had this much fun with a fighting game since MvsC2. It really does capture the playablity of SF2, but with a shitload of new depth. The cancels and EX Focus Attacks really add a layer of strategy and deception to the game. You gotta stay on the ball and know when that shit's coming or you are totally wide open for rape (specifically a SAKURA rape if you're playing against D).
I'm going on a journey today to see if I can grab a damn arcade controller or pad, cuz the 360 controller just isn't really cutting it for me :(
This game is awesome except for the fact that seth is a cheap bastard that pisses me off to no end. I mean seriously wtf.
I got my Fightpad (finally...) from Gamecrazy yesterday. The result? I got the "Play To Win" Achievement (10 ranked in a row). It's not as awesome as the Saturn USB I use for PS3, but it works pretty well, I'll throw in a review for that too on the podcast.
As for Seth, I've played (and lost to) him enough times now to know how his AI works . The first round is always pretty easy, it's the second round where gets all wtfbullshit! First thing is do NOT jump in or he'll Shoryuken almost every time. It's ok to jump in if he starts spamming his Dhalsim arms or Sonic Booms. He'll do those moves if you're across the screen. If you crouch and block just a little aways from him, he'll often try and do his kick move (the one that hits like 15 times or whatever) when you block it, throw him. If he teleports a lot, keep moving yourself, as this is usually the time when he likes to Spinning Pile Drive a lot. The main key is playing defensively, if you're too aggressive, he'll likely win every fight.
I came to post this and Donkey has already beaten me to the punch. I'll also have controller impressions for this weekend. Now I can finally man up on my SF game. THIS IS GONNA BE ONE HELL OF A FIGHT.
MECHA FUCKING ZANGIEF
I can't wait for this to come out, too bad it got delayed like everything else. >_< On the bright side, BALROG BEEN HAD MONEY.
Awwwwww Shit!
Looks so ridiculously dope. Hajime no Ippo Ultra ftw!
"Just what I expected!"
Only one thing to say.... BOXING GLOVES.
Dope commercial for Super. JUST BLAZE!
When is the SSF4 Hobo Cup AT tournament?
For those not in the Street Fighter know, there's an arcade release of Super Street Fighter 4 that's coming later this year. There are a couple of location tests going on for it right now, the most recent of which not only brought some balance changes, but new characters.
http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2010/sep/10/rumor-ingrid-super-street-fighter-4-arcade/ and http://shoryuken.com/content/super-street-fighter-4-arcade-location-test-character-change-confirmations-1729/ from Street Fighter 3.
The rumors state that the arcade release will end up with 6 new characters, but we'll see. The Tokyo game show might have additional characters, or it just might focus on Yun and Yang. Either way, I can't wait to see what's next. What this means for anybody without the arcade version is that it's all but guaranteed that the changes made and the characters added will end up as DLC (much like BlazBlue). GET HYPE!
You sure they won't just release another version of the game? Super Street Fighter 4: Championship Edition (ex Plus Alpha)???
Here's some SSF4 stuff from TGS.
A trailer showcasing the new alternate outfits that are supposedly coming this fall.
The newest traier featuring Yun and Yang.
Genei Jin!
