One of Capcom's most popular franchises, Darkstalkers is a 2D fighting series based on fantasy and myth from Capcom's glory days. Darkstalkers introduced several ideas used in later Capcom fighting games.
I do believe it's been since the 90's that a new Darkstalkers title has been released. Yet, for years you've been taunting us. Darkstalkers characters always end up in mash-up games, as if they were still relevant. We've seen a few ports and remakes, but these do not satiate my need. The fighting genre is popular once again. We've seen a new SF, MK, and KoF. Dozens of fresh faces are popping up. Now, we need a new Darkstalkers game. I want to freaking play as Lord Raptor and Donovan in a brand new Darkstalkers game. This is likely the most creative fighting game out there, and among the most fun. Capcom, you must. Anyone else feel the same way?
at this point, how are they going to differentiate Darkstalkers from SF4? Morrigan and her slutty goodness is not enough.
They are definitely not going to make a new render engine for it, It won't deviate much from SF4 mechanics. Worst-case scenario it will be called a re-skinned SF.
now if next year they released Vampire Saviour (the one with Jeddah) on XBLA, then its an indication Capcom is serious about Darkstalkers again. But nnnnoooo, we are gonna get SF3. So maybe they are thinking of making SF3-2??!
