    http://www.gamespot.com/news/6230641.html?tag=latestheadlines;title;1 
     
    Highlights:  
      * It will be standalone 
      * It won't cost a full $60 
      * Owners of SFIV will get a currently undisclosed bonus 
      * It will include about 8 new caracters (including T. Hawk) 
      * It will add a new lobby system 
      * It won't be compatible online with SFIV 
      * It's slated for spring 2010 
      
    EDIT: they didn't mention it, but I believe it's pretty well confirmed that car smashes will be returning to the series as well.

    Nice interview from Ricardo. Got to see some fighting in the backround. Juri's got a few moves I reconize. Gen's wall kick and Chun-Li's kicks seem to of been added to her character or at least used as insperation.

    Glad to see it won't be a full $30, but I really could do without T. Hawk, he made arcade mode in SF II pretty hellish for me.

    @fenixREVOLUTION: You mean $60, not $30. T. Hawk was also pretty much the worst character in SFII, btw.

    @lordofultima: Yea. I don't understand why T. Hawk keeps getting into the newer games. From what I've seen, just about everyone hates him.

    @PureRok @lordofultima I used to hate T. Hawk, but I kinda warmed up to him after awhile.  It'll be interesting to see how they tweak his move set for this game.  I imagine he might get nerfed a bit.
     
    I assume this also means the triumphant return of Dee-Jay right?

    @lordofultima: I really like T. Hawk in Super Turbo because of how crazy he is when played by experts. He can't ever get in, but when he does he's got that retarded safe-jump tick to negative edge command throw loop that will ruin your shit in about five seconds. The HMMMMMMMMMM sound he makes when throwing you is also kind of scary!

    T-Hawk's cool.  I think some of you hate him for absolutely no reason, while the others have actually experienced the feeling of rage while battling him.

    Yes.  Apparently you choose which one of the two Ultras available for each character you want to use before the battle starts, on the character select screen.  Apparently, since Gen already had 2 because of his two fighting styles, you'll choose two Ultras out of 4 possible ones that you want to use with Gen before the battle.  One for each of his combat styles.

    I guess t-hawk is iconic for super street fighter 2, that's why he's there, same with deejay.
