"Maybe this will finally be the one that I take seriously enough to get good at," he says to himself while staring at the various other versions of Street Fighter IV he'd bought while thinking the exact same thing.

That byline makes my poor, neglected HRAP cry all over again.

I agree with this. If the new characters were the only difference, I would totally drop the money for it. Street Fighter IV might still be my pick for Game of the Generation, if I was forced to choose one. I didn't understand SF for a long time, but when a friend and I decided to learn SF it had more of an impact than pretty much any other game. I adore it.

Agreed.

If we're talking about Capcom's Poison, I've come to terms with the possibility that she may or may not officially be a he depending on the day of the week. Still crazy easy on the eyes.

1. why would i ever not red focus? just absorb all their hits and bam

Red focus costs two bars of meter, using double ultra gives them damage nerfs.

Pretty much that. Armor breaking moves will also still break the focus on the first hit.

That's all well and good, but I know this would just devolve into me trying to hit people with the Raging Demon over and over.

Even though I think they've gone on record explicitly that the 5th character isn't Asura, I still think that'd be rad.

Or fuck it, just put Scorpion in there.

@dilbyo:

Red focus costs meter.

The double ultra option means each ultra does less damage. If you are really only going to use one, you should still just pick one.

Ultra Combo Double scales the Ultras by 60% or something like that. Also it's character dependent. Mainly grapplers will benefit from the Double Ultra.

It's pretty much exactly what the people who are still playing SFIV want, isn't the upgrade only like $15 or $20?

I'm excited to see Poison in a proper Street Fighter game. I loved her in SFxT even if that game wasn't the best.

Still wonder who the 5th character is.
