Shizowa san promises a big Street Fighter IV announcement Friday.

I actually just bumped the thread BoG had going about the Champ patch.  I'm still having huge trouble getting a match together.  Personally, it's pissing me off, as well as many of my friends.

i don't think there will be characters, but I rally hope they address the online user interface and matchmaking problems. I just hope the announcement is them just updating the arcade machines, then I will be pissed.

I am making no assumptions about what this could be, it's just too hard to call..

If it is more characters (characters from SFIII), than finally I'll be interested in SFIV.

Right now its Friday morning 5:07 AM in Tokyo, Japan... hopefully we get news on what the announcement is all about tonight.

I'm almost 100% positive it isn't happening, but I'm totally getting my self psyched up for some SFIII and Final Fight characters.

Man I really need to buy Street Fighter IV so I can let all you assholes destroy me. Will decide depending on this announcement! Egad.

Hmm, I don't know.  Characters seem unlikely to me.  Didn't they say at the beginning that characters would not be available through dlc?  Maybe they were lying, that'd be cool.  Here's hopin' for Cody!
