Here's All the Stuff Being Added to Ultra Street Fighter IV

"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.

Maybe it's just me, but these re-releases don't really bother me. I get that it may seem sort of sleezy.. And I suppose in some ways it is, but they are appealing to their crowd and giving them something new on a somewhat regular basis. And it could just be an upgrade, if you already own previous versions of the game. The "people are still buying this shit?" types of comments come off as incredibly off base and ignorant. It's not that big a deal, and I think it's cool that this game has expanded so much since it's initial release. Maybe it isn't necessary to get every single version of the game, but to be angry about capcom trying to improve their game in different incarnations while mostly catering to their core audience just seems silly to me. It would be different if each new installment had 1 new character and a balance change here and there. There is some substantial work that goes into these improvements and they're there for the people who are the hardcore dedicated.

Relax, people. There is far faaaaar gross and devious things at play in this industry than Capcom reiterating and improving on a quality title.

Poison never fails to get a reaction from the crowd. Gotta love it!

Although I have no intentions of diving in USFIV, I look forward to the hype matchups in the future.

Any game featuring Poison is a game worth playing.

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.

apparently poison is a trans gender

Yes. And 90% of male video game fans would still be happy to see him disrobed.

Street Fighter 4 was one of my favorite and important games of this generation.

I was always bad at using focus so that's gonna suck, still probably gonna get in on this. My guess for the fifth character remains: a redesigned Roxy.

So does this mean that after the 4th iteration of the 4th street fighter game we can finally get a Capcom fighting game that IS NOT street fighter? Say Project Justice!?
