Street Fighter 5 coming to PC

Street Fighter V has been announced as a PC/PS4 exclusive. This is a big boost to the PC fighting game community, as Street Fighter is the biggest franchise in the genre. SF4 was released on PC, but after the consoles.

As someone who loves street fighter, i am liking this.

lol, i will just put that there....

Looks like they re-skinned the characters up from 2008 to 2014 graphic. I hope they can balance the heroes too so it would be more dynamic than the current SF4 meta where's there's only like 10 top tier characters and the rest are crap.

 

i love street fighter... proper game, requiring proper skill... they sure don't make them like they used to.

I qm not sure which version of SF4 you are referring to, but Ultra is very balanced. you literally have people winning with:

Ken, Evil Ryu, Ryu, Akuma, Yun, El Fuerte, Zangief, Hugo, Dudley, Sakura, Gouken, Dahlsim, Rose, Rufus, Chun-li, Adon, Feilong, Gen, Ibuki and many many more. 

SF evolves. i mean, last night's North East Championships had Zangief and El Fuerte in grand finals. Ultra is extremely balanced. I mean, with the exception of maybe DeeJay, anyone could be utilized to be a championship character.

Here is an update of the actual trailer... that Denjin Hadoken is sick. i love using Denjin in SF3. i wonder if parrying will come back :P

call me old but i wish they didnt go 3d

so you want it more like this?

 

likewise...

I don't play hardcore, but for casual gamers, they look very balanced but when I watch EVO and twitch streaming tournaments. It looks very unbalanced and the commentators let you know it watching Ultra Street Fighter IV? I think. I've seen El Fuerte take championchip off Zangief twice now, he's too OP. Also Cammy seems to win against all Ken/Ryu/Akuma players. I rarely see any Dhalism player get into top 16 or 8 players. JW you never heard them mention Tier 1 characters?

guilty gear was the shit

HA! that was a trick, as that image is from Guilty Gear Xrd, and is in fact 3D :P

albeit, with incredible cellshading that makes it hard to discern from hand drawn sprites. DBZ games need to implement this level of 'anime' style shading. 

Game comes out for PS3(720p/60) and PS4(1080/60) in 1 week. has cross-platform play :)
