Super / Street Fighter IV

[Number45]

http://blogs.capcomusa.com/blogs/digital.php/2007/09/26/flying_dictators_new_art#c3702

Emphasis theirs.

So, the comments page on the last update to the SSF2HD blog is full of hints to something major happening within the next week or two. I can't be bothered to trawl through the comments and pick out the interesting stuff, so here's the GAF thread that does it for you.

So... SF4 then? It must be a month or two since this perpetual rumour last reared its head.


SF IV on DS

Street Fighter 4 - Wii exclusive w/ waggle controls.
My worst nightmare.

[J0e Musashi]

Lol, SF4.

DS Biohazard 2 that supports the rumble pack or a DS remixed exsiting SF online game with no lag. Anything else can gtf.

[kernow]

pretty much, I agree with Joe although I wish he'd stop saying he'd buy things and then never pay for them or ignore emails from the seller- but hey, I agree with Joe, RE2 (not BH2, I want it in english), and an SF game for the DS with wifi would be awesomes!

[J0e Musashi]

I hate how firms announce that they are going to make an announcement nowadays.

Biohazard is in English. Nobody reads the stupid files anyway.

??

Nobody has e-mailed me either.

DS SF would be pretty much the best thing ever. It'll prolly be Rockman Battle and Chase on DS though.

[Dogg Thang]

Ah yes, the announcement about the announcement fun that is all too common these days.

Seems to be slightly self-defeating because people speculate all sorts of great things (often with good reason) and then, more often than not, what's announced is a real let down.

My guess is that Sega are letting them make Shenmue 3 with the Devil May Cry engine. 360 exclusive. You heard it here first.

[hoolak]

Bionic Commando DS is great in my head, but you may need 3 hands to play. Holding the L button whilst sroking the screen from character to branch results in swingymebobs.

[bingowings]

Biohazard games for the PSP.

truth be told, the only reason i've kept hold of mine is the vain, tiny hope that at least something Biohazard-related will be released for it.

[bignige]

Megaton!

[Mad Gear]

Dead rising 2: Zombie Boogaloo

[ChrisF]

Something to do with Capcom making a version of Halo, set in Africa, where you shoot the locals.

[chopemon]

The Nemesis isn't dead and they confirm that Chris will get tentacle raped for being a big nasty racist.

Seeing as it is from the Street Fighter blog I'm guessing that it is to do with the release date of the Super Street Fighter 2 Hyper Delorian Remix.

[Concept]

Surely to satisfy fans Street Fighter IV has to be on a next-gen system 2D 1080p, compatible with a new specially made arcade stick?

Personally, I'd like to see that and Killer7 redone for the next-gen to clean up the lines and give it the sharpness it originally would have benefitted more from.

Perhaps it's a new IP that'll blow us all out of the water because it's so original, unexpected and fresh?

[jimmbob]

Personally, I'd like to see that and Killer7 redone for the next-gen to clean up the lines and give it the sharpness it originally would have benefitted more from.



It would be perfect for the Wii.

[Concept]

In controls, but I remember people were saying that about Rez. An increase in the audio/visual experience of Killer7 is more important than changing the controls imo.

[Ouenben]

I'd be happy with any of these:

RE2 DS
RE3 DS
P N 04 Wii
Viewtiful joe 3 - Wii or Xbox 360
RE2/RE3 remakes for Wii, RE4 style controls + new graphics
Resident evil collection for Wii (0,1,2,3, survivior 1 + 2, dead aim, etc)
RE 1-2-3 on VC
NEW Resident evil for DS/wii, something which happens between 3 + 4.


but im likely to be dissapointed and very few of these will probably ever happen :(

[Brodie]

I want -

Street Fighter 4
Strider 3
Marvel vs Capcom 3
Rival Schools 3

I am expecting inevitable disappointment.

[El Leone]

I wouldn't hold your breath, although if there if there is something good to announce then thats quite cool

[Concept]

You know what makes it more disappointing? Knowing Sega greenlit Yakuza 3, which given it's historical setting and gameplay conventions, has no chance of selling more than a few thousand copies in the west. Why the hell can't they do the same for S3? :(

[hoolak]

Shenmue III

or how about PowerDrift 2? :D

[jimmbob]

NEW Resident evil for DS/wii, something which happens between 3 + 4.



That would be cool, perhaps playing as Ada, God knows what the crafty bitch has been up to between Resi 2 and 4.

[Leon Ahoy!]

Maybe Capcom plan to merge with Konami ? :lol:

[dcmk]

Microsoft have gobbled them up?

[Ghost]

Microsoft have gobbled them up?

Could be, after bungie leaving and shit sales in japan

[Ghost]

I'd be happy with any of these:

RE2 DS
RE3 DS
P N 04 Wii
Viewtiful joe 3 - Wii or Xbox 360
RE2/RE3 remakes for Wii, RE4 style controls + new graphics
Resident evil collection for Wii (0,1,2,3, survivior 1 + 2, dead aim, etc)
RE 1-2-3 on VC
NEW Resident evil for DS/wii, something which happens between 3 + 4.


but im likely to be dissapointed and very few of these will probably ever happen :(

Aint gonna happen, it means Capcom would have to pull their fingers out of their arse and actually support those platforms (DS and Wii)

[kernow]

Could be, after bungie leaving and shit sales in japan


hahaha, no

[J0e Musashi]

Aint gonna happen, it means Capcom would have to pull their fingers out of their arse and actually support those platforms (DS and Wii)

You mean like with Biohazard DS, Gyakuten Saiban series, Kabu Trader Shun, Rockman series, Viewtiful J0e Scratch, Wantame Music Channel: Doko Demo Style, Wantame Uranai Channel, and the forthcoming Rosario to Vampire?

:zzz:

[Pirotic]

This isn't just going to be about Monster Hunter 3 on the Wii is it?

[eastyy]

[=QUOTE]


but there what people want :) from what i have learn when a company has a big announcement its rarely for what people actually want :) ....like everytime rare have a announcment i hope its for a new killer instinct game and it never is :(

[J0e Musashi]

Lol, Killer Instinct.

I bet it's a shite remake of Side Arms or something.

[jimmbob]

What happened to Maximo?
That could work on t3h Wii Wii.

[spagmasterswift]

Capcom Console?

[jimmbob]

If that was true; I imagine these forums would crash for MASSIVE DAMAGE under the froth of ensuing excitement.

[J0e Musashi]

Capcom Console?

LOL! </whiplash>


CPS Changer

[Number45]

What happened to Maximo?
That could work on t3h Wii Wii.
They dismantled the team, if I remember correctly. Shame, I love the Maximo games.

[jimmbob]

Capcom like doing that don't they. Make a groovy game, disband the team.

[SuperDanX]

Dress down friday.

[bingowings]

they're going to get a Team together and have it out with those MUGEN fellas, down the park. no blades, only bats.

[Big Seany]

I am hoping this means I will finally be able to play as the bosses. And Sheng Long.

[D J Kix]

Capcom Console?

With SF4, Marvel Vs Collection, Megaman Rebooted, Capcom Retro Classics, Powerstone 3 & Viewtiful Joe 3 all first party launch titles :)

[spagmasterswift]

Japanese only >_<

[elkatas]

Rumours say that there will be Chun Li action game for next-gen consoles, coinciding release of the new movie.

[Number45]

That's conjured up horrible pictures in my mind of that third person action/adventure game starring Nina from Tekken, whose name I seem to have banished from my consciousness.

Edit: Of course it's possible that this rumour is the MH3 for Wii announcement. It's pretty big after all, though it doesn't make any sense when you bring the SF comments into the equation.

[Keith]

Was it Death By Degrees or something similarly rubbish? I was sure that I knew it when I read your post...

[Number45]

Sounds like it, yeah. *searches*

Yeah (http://us.gamespot.com/ps2/action/nina/index.html?tag=result;title;0).

[Flabio]

Death by Degrees was a good idea, it just failed in the execution. This is partly why Soul Calibur Legends worries me.

[elkatas]

Edit: Of course it's possible that this rumour is the MH3 for Wii announcement.

Nope. From what I have heard, this is about few old franchises that will be resurrected. After all, Capcom has lots of interesting stuff in its backlog; Gunsmoke, Bionic Commando, Mega Man Legends, Breath of Fire, Powerstone, Street Fighter, Strider etc.

[moonwhistle]

I'd trade a kidney for Street Fighter 4. It wouldn't have to be a revolution either, just the 3rd Strike engine with more characters, backgrounds and music.

[SuperDanX]

Announcment to be made next wensday at the Capcom gamers day in London, whatever that is? Tis to be one of several announcments to be made at the event. Im hearing SF4.

[Mofoman]

i have heard from really good sources, that biggest announcement has been made, the shift of Monster Hunter to Nintendo, and it loooks as though there will be an sf4 but in early development and an arcade title.

Also some more wii titles to be announced too, since there main focus has now shifted to wii development.

[elkatas]

Well, Capcom has added countdown to the Capcom-Unity's main page. OMG, I'm soooo excited.... Not... :hmm:

Linky (http://www.capcom-unity.com/)

[Dogg Thang]

It would want to be pretty damn fantastic to warrant that countdown and planet pic.

I expect an end to wars and world hunger. Or something to do with Resident Evil. One or the other.

[FSW]

Street Fighter 4

[dataDave]

Street Fighter 4

[chopemon]

Surely that is Lost Planet Colonies seeing as it is a planet and that name has been bandied a few times?

[dataDave]

Surely that is Lost Planet Colonies seeing as it is a planet and that name has been bandied a few times?

That sounds to me like multiplayer Lost Planet, only MMO'ified. FTW on so many levels.

MMO Lost Planet > Street Fighter 4

[JU!]

I'd be happy with any of these:

RE2 DS
RE3 DS
P N 04 Wii
Viewtiful joe 3 - Wii or Xbox 360
RE2/RE3 remakes for Wii, RE4 style controls + new graphics

RE 1-2-3 on VC
NEW Resident evil for DS/wii, something which happens between 3 + 4.


but im likely to be dissapointed and very few of these will probably ever happen :(

How I would love this to be true. Yep SF4 would be awesome, I do doubt this though because of Street Fighter HD comin. I'd love to see RE 2,3(Biohazard 2, 3) be DS bound.

[chopemon]

That sounds to me like multiplayer Lost Planet, only MMO'ified. FTW on so many levels.

MMO Lost Planet > Street Fighter 4

Not sure if there would be any reason to leave the house ever again if it is.

[The Mole]

Why does everybody seam to think it will involve Nintendo? Did i miss something?

[dvdmike]

Its "Something to make Ps3 owners Happy" so it cannot be Lost planet 2 lol

[hoolak]

I would friggin love LP2.

[Number45]

Its "Something to make Ps3 owners Happy" so it cannot be Lost planet 2 lol
Where's that quote from?

[dvdmike]

Christian Svensson
Capcom Entertainment Inc. - Sr. Director of Strategic Planning & Research

http://www.capcom.com/BBS/showpost.php?p=374621&postcount=45

[Number45]

Cool, missed that. I didn't think much else had been said.

This is making me think this announcement is more and more likely to be related to recent IP for Capcom, perhaps with the sequels coming to both platforms. Although that still doesn't explain the SF connotations...

Dammit, announcements of announcements are so annoying. I hate speculation.

[elkatas]

This is making me think this announcement is more and more likely to be related to recent IP for Capcom, perhaps with the sequels coming to both platforms.

It is actually multiple IPs. Five weeks ago Australian website hyped how Capcom would be soon showing multiple IPs of its beloved franchises. Everybody thought that this would happen at TGS, and when it didn't, site was blamed for generating false news. However, Svensson did confirm that Capcom had some secret MegaTon stuff that they were keeping for their own event. I believe that most major sites know about these titles already, but everybody is NDA'd.

[angelx]

That sounds to me like multiplayer Lost Planet, only MMO'ified. FTW on so many levels.

MMO Lost Planet > Street Fighter 4

Oh you MMO whore, you wont have time to play this as well:rolleyes:

[EvilBoris]

Capcom bringing Old streetfighters games to the PSN. I bet it is something as unexciting as that

[angelx]

Capcom bringing Old streetfighters games to the PSN. I bet it is something as unexciting as that


The alpha games i wouldnt moan at but ive paid enough times & formats of the old style sf2/turbo/super etc. Buying it one last time on xbox live reminds me its not dated well and how rubbish I am at it now.:lol:

[phillai]

Street Fighter 4 seems the obvious biggie here but how about...

Street Fighter Alpha 4
Street Fighter the Movie 2
Street Fighter EX 4
Marvel vs Capcom 3
Rival Schools 3
DC vs Capcom

How about it, Capcom?

[eastyy]

hmm wondering if it will be that 2d fighter basara game being converted to console

[MikeRox]

Its "Something to make Ps3 owners Happy" so it cannot be Lost planet 2 lol

After the Monster Hunter 3 news, I'm sure something like "Monster Hunter Worlds" or something would be more than welcome on PS3:thumb:

[spagmasterswift]

Its "Something to make Ps3 owners Happy"

Are they gonna give them a 360?

[cavalcade]

Are they gonna give them a 360?

That did make me laugh, I have to admit.

[J0e Musashi]

Street Fighter 4 seems the obvious biggie here but how about...

Street Fighter Alpha 4
Street Fighter the Movie 2
Street Fighter EX 4
Marvel vs Capcom 3
Rival Schools 3
DC vs Capcom

How about it, Capcom?

About 2 people would buy them. Hence there being a 99% chance it won;t be any of those.

[phillai]

lol

Surely SF Alpha 4 would be good though!

[J0e Musashi]

SFZ4 might be nice. I can't see how the series could be furthered though myself. SFZ4 and Rival Schools 3 are the only feasible ones. Capcom don't hold the Marvel license anymore, and Arika own half the charas out of SF EX.

[eastyy]

new darkstalkers game would be good :)


would also a love a marvel superheroes style game perhaps with original characters i just love ott fighting games

[hoolak]

A shmup called 2942.

[H-Man]

Something brand new, or is that just crazy talk?!

[id-republix]

Capcom like doing that don't they. Make a groovy game, disband the team.

If I remember correctly, the FF Streetwise gem they made that got them disbanded was the furthest thing from groovy since Superman 64.

[elkatas]

Something that I just remembered...

Zomg, megaton! :p

[C']

You're right.

A new Strider would be megaton worthy :O

[Number45]

So this is around eight o'clock tomorrow morning then, I assume? Typical, I'll be on the train to London.

[J0e Musashi]

??? It'll still exist by the time you get into work.

[Number45]

Actually I'm meeting with a customer, then going home, then going to the gym, so by the time I get back here the thread will have advanced 400 posts and I won't be arsed to read it all. There's nothing quite like being involved as it* happens.

* - I'm more than aware I'm building it up to such an extent that it's bound to be a disappointment.

[J0e Musashi]

I'll PM it to you just so you ain't gotta read a whole load of rubbish. You know if it's on PS3 Evolution-One (;)John) will post 900 times about it, so I'll save you some time.

[Number45]

:D

My timing's off, isn't it? By the countdown on the site it's actually 09:00 Wednesday morning, which means I'll be at my desk when it happens. Although some GAF posts suggest it's 09:00 CST, which makes me think that the countdown isn't localised.

[huxley]

Bet its a resi game for the psp.

[J0e Musashi]

That's not exactly major news. Unless it's some online-only Outbreak affair, but that is actually good.

I bet it's a new Tekki with an even bigger controller.

[huxley]

I just saw that a petion has been going on for a Resi game for some time.

[hoolak]

Hope it's a new Lost Planet. Aawyeeeah.

[angelx]

I just saw that a petion has been going on for a Resi game for some time.

Yeppers, I signed that, the more Resi the Better! :w00t:

[J0e Musashi]

It's Biohazard, not Resident Evil. Lol, worst game name ever. It doesn't even make sense.

[wakka]

What, Resident Evil? Yes it does, most prominently in reference to the first game. The evil is resident in the house. I don't like either name much, but 'Biohazard' just sounds like the title of one of those shitty straight to video horror movies like Anaconda.

[JP]

I'll PM it to you just so you ain't gotta read a whole load of rubbish. You know if it's on PS3 Evolution-One (;)John) will post 900 times about it, so I'll save you some time.
Hey Daryl, you'll have to start PMing me if you're mentioning me in threads I don't subscribe to due to having no interest in the subject of them!;)

This is about the third in as many weeks that I would have completely missed if other people didn't PMd me to let me know you were doing it lol!:lol:

[J0e Musashi]

It may refer to the first game, but we're now on what the 7th game? Resident Evil gives it a supernatural feeling, and there clearly isn't anything supernatural going down. Do you see? Also the "Resident Evil" voice when you hit start is so lame it's unbelievable.
Biohazard is much better as it was an actual biohazard that created the zombies in the first place.

It is Biohazard anyway, as the name is changed for the western releases so I win. *sticks up two fingers* :lol:

[J0e Musashi]

Hey Daryl, you'll have to start PMing me if you're mentioning me in threads I don't subscribe to due to having no interest in the subject of them!;)

Lol. I'll PM you in future buddy. :lol:

[angelx]

It's Biohazard, not Resident Evil. Lol, worst game name ever. It doesn't even make sense.

Semantics, I prefer the Resident Evil Name, Its still the same game! A rose by any other name:rolleyes:

[JP]

;)

I almost said in my original post that I don't even enjoy the Biohazard games...but after reading a few posts in here, realised I'd probably be risking my life!:lol:





:hmm:

[angelx]

Horses for Courses eh, theres loads of games I can't stand that are revered :)

[TheBlackLodge]

http://uk.gamespot.com/news/6181070.html

Bionic Commando.

[SuperDanX]

Looks smart, but what an anticlimax. Hope its better than the shit original.

[EvilBoris]

Looks cool. Is it me or does it seem that Crackdown has created a sub genre, we've now got both this, Infamous and Prototype all in a similar vein. Good news for me, because I love this kinda thing

[J0e Musashi]

teh Suq. It doesn't even have Super J0e anymore.

[elkatas]

teh Suq. It doesn't even have Super J0e anymore.

Yup. I would have liked that they would have sticked with original WWII theme, and gone pulp / camp.

[EvilBoris]

What mass appeal?

[KJH]

I wonder if GRIN will got access to the MT Framework engine...

[Blunt]

Bionic Commando isn't the big announcement though, countdown's still going.

BC could go either way, but the fact that it has Mike Patton voicing the hero is already a big plus for me.

[Skull Commander]

Mike Patton is a god.

[peeveen]

I thought some of the bits in Lost Planet were kinda BionicCommando-esque. And since that was also a Capcom game, I had assumed it was "inspired" by BC.

[hoolak]

Nice. I said it would be this in post 6. The leet is with me.

and Mike Patton is indeed a god.

[jimmbob]

Bionic Commando isn't the big announcement though, countdown's still going.


Erm, this. Or are we mere mortals missing something?
Says there's about 20 minutes left...

[Blunt]

Erm, this. Or are we mere mortals missing something?

20 hours, not 20 minutes.

[jimmbob]

So it is! Well you get the idea!
So are we still awaiting the MEGAT0N, or not?

[C']

Street Fighter 4 :hmm:

[MarioMark]

Street Fighter 4 :hmm:

Don't you mean Street Fighter ZX-ALPHA-EON-SUPER-MEGA-FX-4?

[jimmbob]

These countdown things are popping up with monotonous regularity. And quite frankly, they get right on my tits.

[C']

Don't you mean Street Fighter ZX-ALPHA-EON-SUPER-MEGA-FX-4?

Pffft, you clearly don't know Capcom. That will be the month after SF4...

[hoolak]

Cool. So, that defo isnt the "bomb"? Still hope for Lost Planet 2 X Plus Alpha.

[eastyy]

and the problem is AFTER the countdown most announcements get a resounding "meh" response :)

[jimmbob]

Maybe it's a countdown to a revolutionary new save system, where you can have more than 1 save on the go at one time!

[Swallow]

No, it's clearly a cure to allow you to move at FULL SPEED!

[jimmbob]

It's the reveal of an "Easy" mode that's actually, you know, Easy!
Either that or Shenmue 3, or Street Fighter 4.

[spagmasterswift]

They're gonna remove the 'pussy filters' from their games so that Swallow and Jimmboob can finish them!!

[Duddyroar]

Isn't this Bionic Commando (http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=85412)?

[hoolak]

There still seems to be 17hrs left until something... here (http://www.capcomunity.com/)

[jimmbob]

They're gonna remove the 'pussy filters' from their games so that Swallow and Jimmboob can finish them!!

A quite shocking personal attack, ban request STAT!

[Swallow]

Yes, I'm SICKENED.

[spagmasterswift]

Would be worth a banning if it wasn't so blatantly true!

[jimmbob]

LoLZ!, I've finished Lost Planet dontchaknow, that makes me l33t.

[Swallow]

Lol, being proud of finishing a game on Easy.

Lol, me not finishing it yet.

[hoolak]

where ya stuck, you guyz?

[Swallow]

Not stuck, just fed up with the inane, purposely obtuse constraints on teh action, and the repetitive, uninspiring enemies and "boss" fights.

[spagmasterswift]

And the 'pussy filters'...

[jimmbob]

Not stuck, just fed up with the inane, purposely obtuse constraints on teh action, and the repetitive, uninspiring enemies and "boss" fights.

The boss fights were ace. And for the record I'm sure I finished it on normal. Easy mode wouldn't be that hard?!

[hoolak]

'Pussy Filters' haha. I heard there's a big button on the front of the console which switches them off.

[elkatas]

Hmh, my source says that there is going to be two announcements in addition of Bionic Commando. Super exciting...

[vocoderfreak]

Is it going to be a patch to make the text in Dead Rising legible?

[jimmbob]

I've heard it's Street Fighter 4, and Halo 4. But if they tell us before the timer runs out they will be banned from Xbox live. That's just what I've heard...

[Ady]

Is it going to be a patch to make the text in Dead Rising legible?

:lol:

[Dogg Thang]

I believe the clue is in the title. Major? Major? An army rank... who has an army rank? Captain Commando... and wouldn't he have been promoted in the time since his last outing?

My guess: Major Commando.

Versus Streetfighter.

[hoolak]

Major? hmmm. Mai-Jaw. Mai Shiranui and Trap Jaw from He-Man...hmmm.

SNK Vs Masters of The Universe Plus Capcom.

[parkinho]

SNK Vs Masters of The Universe Plus Capcom.

Preorder +1

[Kotatsu Neko]

I was initially excited to read it was Bionic Commando, then disappointed to hear it's not Capcom internal, but by a Swedish dev called GRIN, who don't exactly have a glorious history. (Ghost Recon on PC seems to be their highest profile title)

Screens look okay though, and maybe if Capcom are very, very hands on it could be okay.

[hoolak]

Reckon they'll use the Lost Planet engine for it? Looks like it in some screens I've seen.

[EvilBoris]

Reckon they'll use the Lost Planet engine for it? Looks like it in some screens I've seen.

I imagine so, the framework engine was developed as a multi platform engine, it is used in Lost Planet, Dead Rising and Devil May Cry 4.

[Kotatsu Neko]

I imagine so, the framework engine was developed as a multi platform engine, it is used in Lost Planet, Dead Rising and Devil May Cry 4.

I wouldn't be so sure of that. The logistics of a foreign team working with an in-house engine with likely entirely Japanese tools, documentation, and support would make life quite difficult. It would be easier for the Swedish devs to license UE3 like everyone else.

[EvilBoris]

Well that makes, sense, didn't read your post saying it was being done external.
You never know, I guess if the game screen tears to shit over VGA then we will know. *Prays they've noticed that bug for DMC4*

[billy_dimashq]

why would capcom announce halo 4? did something happen while i was away?

[Dogg Thang]

There was a rumour that Halo 4 was part of their recent Shenmue 3 dev deal.

[dvdmike]

Shenmue 3 have I missed something ?

[neoboy259]

oops ignore

[SuperDanX]

Well? What is it then? When? I cant wait any longer.

[jimmbob]

7 Hours to go until they unveil their plans for the Halo and Shenmue franchise. I can't wait!:thumb:

[C']

Halo Vs. Shenmue: Clash of the Over-Hyped Franchises?

[SuperDanX]

7 hours! Im going to implode!

[Garny]

Gametrailers now have a countdown to a Capcom event (is it the same thing?) This one dosent run out for almost 2 days...

1d 22h 10m

[Lowkey]

I read that there is an announcement today, followed by more announcements after the media embargo ends towards the end of the week.

[Number45]

This is going to be a disappointment, isn't it? They're (We're) building it up far too much.

[hoolak]

This is going to be a disappointment, isn't it? They're (We're) building it up far too much.

Stop being a spoil sport, this is gonna be the biggest announcement in the history of disappointing over hyped announcements :D

[Number45]

Anything but a 2D SF4, completely rebuilt graphically from the ground up, and I'm going to cry. I'm going to have to dash to the PC at half time later on to see what this is!

[hoolak]

SF4 would be sweet. Lost Planet MMO would warrant a cream full.

[Number45]

I didn't get on with the demo of that (So very slow), but I'm open to anything to be honest (Although I'll still cry if it's not SF4). If they do bring IP across to the PS3 from the 360 (Which is something else that's been rumoured) I hope they allow for the originals to be played (Or at least some sort of story summary). Same as Condemned 2 really, I can't imagine it'll be the same without having experienced the first.

Hell, I'm trying to complete the PS1 MGS game right now for what must be the 6th time. Just because I want to play the others, I feel compelled to start from the beginning (Even if the timeline is out).

[Garny]

I think this is going to end up being at least 3 diffrent game announcments. At least one of them could be a PS3 exclusive (why would it make "PS3 owners happy" otherwise)

Another of them has to be a Dead Rising sequel. We havent heard anything on this for ages after all.

[Number45]

Apparently we can expect multiple announcements throughout the rest of the week, but I guess the one later today is the 'big' one. It had better be bigger than Bionic Commando, that's for sure.

[JamesS]

I want it to be Street Fighter 4 with anime-quality HD 2D graphics and loads of characters.

However, going by past "huge" announcements like this, it'll actually be something like Final Fight: Streetwise 2.

[spagmasterswift]

Viewtiful Joe HD.

[J0e Musashi]

We want an entirely new game no?

[spagmasterswift]

A proper sequel to the first game in HD yers?!

[dataDave]

MMO Lost Planet. It makes perfect sense and you lot know it.

[SuperDanX]

I want 'Escape From New York' Survival Horror stylee

[jimmbob]

I've heard they're using the Halo 3 engine to make a first person Mega Man game.

[Paulos G]

Can I quote you on that Jimmie?

[jimmbob]

No don't quote me on it, it's just what I've heard. I may get banned from live if I say too much.

[elkatas]

I've heard there using the Halo 3 engine to make a first person Mega Man game.

Next Mega Man Legends game is coming for cellpones, unfortunately. Not to mention that Inafune said that he won't even consider doing new homeconsole Mega Man if he can't get at least 20 million dollar budget for it. Which is pretty much pipe-dream in current business climate. :)

[Paulos G]

Thanks elkatas. Glad I didn't quote Jimmie now.

[Dogg Thang]

Next Mega Man Legends game is coming for cellpones

Does it use the Halo 3 engine?

[jimmbob]

Ah, well it must be Shenmue 3 then.

[Paulos G]

Ah, well it must be Shenmue 3 then.

Does it use the Halol 3 engine?

[elkatas]

Does it use the Halo 3 engine?

It uses "bitter tears" engine. :(

[eastyy]

does halo 3 use the halo 3 engine ? :thumb:

[Paulos G]

I think it uses the Unreal Engine. That's just what I heard though.

[spagmasterswift]

So Mega Man is in UT3?

[J0e Musashi]

&#172;_&#172; It's Rockman.

[jimmbob]

So Mega Man is in UT3?


No he's in your Mobile phone apparently. Master Chief is in UT3. Well that's what I've heard.

[elkatas]

No he's in your Mobile phone apparently.

Yup, together with Resident Evil 4. And then people are saying that Capcom wouldn't never port RE5 to Wii because of platforms technical limitations...

[hoolak]

MMO Lost Planet. It makes perfect sense and you lot know it.

This guy knows it. I knows it. We all got to knows it.

[Juste]

I hope it is a new Street Fighter game but with Goutetsu or Gouken as playable characters. ^_^

[MattyD]

I heard it was just a marketing ploy to get the fanboys whipping up free publicity on blogs and forums.

Oh, wait! :D

[elkatas]

New Bionic Commando trailer at official homepage:

http://www.bioniccommando.com/en

Looks far better than I excepted. :)

[spagmasterswift]

Lost Planet 2 then...

[Paulos G]

Heh. I thought a similar thing - Lost Planet: The Somewhat More Temperate Edition.

[spagmasterswift]

For those who couldn't handle using a turn button and wanted a run button we bring you...

[jimmbob]

So it's Lost Planet, without snow, a run button, with Master Chief and elkatas as playable characters...At least that's what I've heard, don't quote me on it.

[spagmasterswift]

Lost Planet Spoiler!!

LOL, people who have yet to finish Lost Planet

[Swallow]

LOL, Lol Planet

[SuperDanX]

Its a trap. Zero hour= Worldwide T-Virus deployment, Capcom revealed as front for Umberella corp. I have a headache.. Dont feel well..

[Dogg Thang]

So it's Lost Planet, without snow, a run button, with Master Chief and elkatas as playable characters...At least that's what I've heard, don't quote me on it.

Hang on, does that mean Shenmue got shafted again?

[jimmbob]

Lost Planet = Swallows nemesis.
The Spagmaster-Droid is the last boss BTW. He's laughing at you.

[jimmbob]

Hang on, does that mean Shenmue got shafted again?


No that's just one of the later announcements. Well that's what I hear.

[Paulos G]

Wayne = Ryu.

[Swallow]

Ryu > Wayne.

[jimmbob]

Lost Planet > Swallow apparently!

Well that's what I've heard.

[Swallow]

Lost Planet is t3h sux.

Is it okay if I quote you on that?

[Paulos G]

Swallow > Spit.

[J0e Musashi]

Shoulda gone to Specsavers. The game.

[spagmasterswift]

How many hours left of this spam*cough* debate?

[Swallow]

Dunno, isn't there a countdown somewhere? That's what I've heard.

[elkatas]

How many hours left of this spam*cough* debate?

Two hours, 20 minutes.

[jimmbob]

2 Hours 15 minutes until Devil May Cry 4 - Wii Edition is unveiled.

[spagmasterswift]

I just worked that out on a calculator and that means we should know for sure at 5pm today!!! W00t!!1

[Ouenben]

Resident evil: London

A cold is going around, not a t-virus but it's early in the morning so Chris and Jill shoot everyone in sight mistaking them for zombies, the goto the pub for a pint n a packet of crisps.

[jimmbob]

I don't think I'm alone in thinking that would be the best game ever.
Resident Evil - Bit of a Cough Edition.

[spagmasterswift]

ROFL!! You picked up some Pig Snacks!

[NeilMcRae]

megatron!

Street Fighter 4
Development has just begun and the release of the game is more than a year away. No platforms are yet confirmed - a highly stylised animated concept trailer of Ryu and Ken fighting was shown, but no game footage.

Ace Attorney: Apollo Justice
A new character and new series starring a rookie lawyer. Phoenix Wright makes an appearance but is not the lead character. Made specifically for DS.

Lost Planet (PS3)
Avaialable early next year and will include all bonus characters from the PC version and extra downloadable content from the 360 version making it the complete package. Made possible with Blu-ray. 16 player online over the PSN.

Dark Void
A new sci-fi action-adventure IP. Trailer showed third-person and air-vehicle gameplay with a character wearing a steam punk jetpack, skydiving and landing in the cockpit of a gyroscopic aircraft, and then jumping and climbing through airbase fortesses.

Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD (Xbox Live Arcade)
The game will feature a spectator mode and is scheduled for a 2008 while the team try and get zero lag for the online mode. Also features stat tracking and widescreen. Original music from Street Fighter 2 will be used, plus remixed versions of all those tunes.

Wii Love Golf
From the Everybody's Golf team comes a cutesy golf sim, that looks slightly more technical than the PlayStation versions. Players can fade or draw the ball by twisting the Wii-mote when taking a swing.

Hope there's some truth in SF4.

[J0e Musashi]

Woot, how exciting.

[spagmasterswift]

Lost Planet 1??? >_<

[Dogg Thang]

SF4? Wow. I didn't really think they'd do that. If true, that is pretty feckin spectular. Like, Shenmue 3 spectacular. Spectacularer even.

[J0e Musashi]

SF4 in "developed by Capcom USA so it'll be terrible like Fighting Jam" shocker.

[SuperDanX]

SF4 in "developed by Capcom USA so it'll be terrible like Fighting Jam" shocker.

oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pentarou]

Set the hype mill to overdrive.

[Yoshimax]

Lost Planet (PS3)
Avaialable early next year and will include all bonus characters from the PC version and extra downloadable content from the 360 version making it the complete package. Made possible with Blu-ray. 16 player online over the PSN.

[SuperDanX]

I like the sound of Dark Void. hmm, 'Darrrrrrrrrrk Voooooiiiiiid'

[C']

Street Fighter 4:

Please...

Be...

Good!!

[eastyy]

take streetfighter 3 perhaps add a few more characters improve the backgrounds and make it hi res thats what i would want :)

[C']

Also, what's happened to the PSN version of SSF2X HD?

Did I imagine that being announced?

I'll be getting the 360 one regardless, just curious.


Let's see how they [PS3] owners feel about us next week

:lol:

[endo]

Bloody hell- and after all the folk banging on about how we'd never see SF 4. Can't get near that capcom-unity site for the moment and I presume their internets will be in meltdown later on. Exciting stuff...

CAPCOM ANNOUNCES STREEET FIGHTER&#174; IV: LEGENDS FORCE DEGREES™.

SAN MATEO, Calif — October 16, 2007 — Capcom&#174; Entertainment, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced the development of the highly anticipated first installment of the beloved Streeet Fighter&#174; franchise for the New Millennium, in the form of Streeet Fighter&#174; IV: Legends Force Degrees™, coming Spring 2009 for the PS2&#174;, PSP&#174;, and Wii™.

Join Ryu as he battles the armies of the malevolent M. Bison in an immersive fully 3-D beat-em-up, a huge evolution in gameplay from the simple 2D Streeet Fighter&#174; games of the past. Soldiers, street thugs, mutated monsters, and all other sorts of baddies will swarm the screen to stop your quest, but luckily players will be able to use all manners of punches, kicks, and the famous Hadouken attack to clean up the streets. A second player can team up in split-screen co-op (playing as Ken) for dual enemy-blasting action. The martial artists can also collect powerups and tokens for health and special attacks.

Continuing the evolution of the Streeet Fighter&#174; series, Streeet Fighter&#174; IV will showcase a deep and engaging storyline, conveyed through cinematic cutscenes with full voice acting. The game will also feature breathtaking 3-D graphics and sound, creating a Streeet Fighter&#174; game like no other.

The above may not be true ;)

[Dogg Thang]

You dirty motherfrakker. I killed four Capcom employees before I read the last line. Now I'll get the chair.

[Kongster]

Seconded:curse:*


















;)

[Swallow]

That game sounds ace! Not on the next gen, though, but never mind!

[hoolak]

Here we go again :D

That the truth Yoshi? if so.. I dunno if I can handle it. 18gb Lost Planet is gonna be most awesome :D ;)

Seriously, I'm excited the original is coming on PS3.

[spagmasterswift]

Streeet fighter!!1

[hoolak]

Seems like Capcom Unity site is down. I repeat...down.

[MoFo2]

CAPCOM ANNOUNCES STREEET FIGHTER® IV: LEGENDS FORCE DEGREES™.
...

The above may not be true ;)

I almost got fooled by that one yesterday .. :lol:

[angelx]

Ban request for spag for making my heart sink right up until the end! :P

Can't get back on there now >_< Oh well, off home then...

[elkatas]

As Capcom's own servers are being hammered, here is Youtube link for the trailer:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZP3WYiOncI

Cell-shaded 3D.

[J0e Musashi]

take streetfighter 3 perhaps add a few more characters improve the backgrounds and make it hi res thats what i would want :)

So not SF4 at all then, but SF 3:4th strike. :rolleyes:

http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/8173/picture1bd1.jpg

If the game is as bad as the title screen...

[Kotatsu Neko]

SF4 trailer looks fantastic. Will the game be played in 2D still but just be rendered in 3D? (like SF EX, but hopefully not as abysmal)

Need more info on Dark Void.. Hopefully it's Capcom internal.

[Kongster]

Agreed, the trailer looks awesome. Capcom ftw!!!

[hoolak]

Yeah, we need to know if it's gonna be 2D or 3. This is great news. Just need J0e Miyagi to stop putting damper on it all ;)

[J0e Musashi]

It's not even the real game trailer, honestly you lot are wetting your knickers over some stupid movie. Have patience. It'll suq.

[hoolak]

Have faith Miyagi, please. You're like Grumpy Old Men moaning about your shrivelled willy :D C'mooon feeeeeel the fighter!

[C']

Yes, heaven forbid people get excited about games :rolleyes:

Considering Capcom have released more successes than duffers of late I think it's safe to be optimistic.

[elkatas]

Considering Capcom have released more successes than duffers of late I think it's safe to be optimistic.

Optimism is the first step on the road to disappointment :)

[C']

Who cares?

Capcom are taking a shot at Street Fighter 4. That is BIG considering most people thought it would never happen.

Even if it does turn out to be shit, I'm no worse off than if Capcom never released it at all.
