    Yes I will buy it, and  one very big reason why it won't be DLC is if mostlikely cause there are rumors of it and a big demand, if they change the net code the entire infrastructure would be all new. Add that to all the new characters and such this is just a new game.

    Those are both great games...  You sir, have no taste. 
     
    Anyways, yes, I'm getting it whether or not it's full retail.

    I want to say no, but I'm totally Capcom's bitch on this one.  I'm sure I'll get it.

    Depends on price. Not paying a penny more than $30 USD.

    Probably but only because I'm going to get the MW2 Xbox 360 and I'll probably be spending most of my gaming time on it instead of the PS3 come Nov 10th.

    Fairly certain I'm going to get this on launch day.
     
    Btw I don't know if it's been mentioned here yet but eventhubs pretty much confirmed that this will be a new disc but priced as an upgrade.

    It's a bland and boring chain of QTEs with breaks in it for shitty combat, Nolan North being Nolan North and the worst written ending i've seen in a videogame in a long time.

    Prince: 'Hi, i'm Nolan North doing absolutely nothing to hide my voice. As a snarky America, i'm perfect for the role of a Persian prince of thieves.' 
     
    Elika: 'Oh, hey Nolan. Want to stand still and watch a cutscene where I give you the exposition that the developers couldn't fit anywhere else and then you snark back at me?' 
     
    Prince: 'Gee, sure. Was that in a sarcastic enough tone for you?' 
     
    Elika: 'Almost. My father is more snarky. Let me stand here and spend 3 minutes telling you about him.'  
     
    And that's not even mentioning the end which is just one big stupid retcon.

    well at the risk of being yelled at for having prince of Persia argument in a street fighter thread. 
    I think nolan north was awesome as the prince I actually hate him as drake. you must have not done the optional conversations which were really funny.
    and the only reason you didn't like the ending is because you must not have understood why he did what he did. I liked the ending because I knew what was going on and then payed for the epilogue and loved that too. So I loved the game and you didn't oh well you can go play whatever it is that you play.

    I voted yes.  I'm looking forward to all the new features, plus I'm curious as to what they're going to do with the existing cast.  I wonder if they're going to sell this game as a Greatest Hits title.

    If it was downloadable content, I'd be more inclined to buy it. Really, this kind of expansion pack would be a good fit for downloadable content. 
     
    Its not going to happen though. I'm very disappointed about this, too.

    But what would it matter if it was a stand alone disc but it was the same price as it would be for DLC?  I know it won't be, but it's been said that it will not be priced as a full retail product.

    People pay A LOT every year for the newest iteration of a sports game (not much change each year with these) for full retail price.  Why can't I pay "not full retail price" for an updated fighting game that doesn't come as often as a sports franchise game?  It will also be more than a year from the launch of sfiv when ssfiv comes out in spring...

    It's not full retail price.  If any one of you cheap scumbags actually watched the interview you'd realize that Ono makes point clear.
     
    Some of you have probably spent than just 30 bucks just on comparable DLC.

    I have the PC version, so it'll be very nice of Capcom to support PC users.
     
    Of course, they'll give their support 6 months after the console releases. So nice of them.

    Are you serious? Lmao. The Game Of The Year Editions are just for those who haven't purchased the game yet, as it has all of the DLC + original game in them, and they are typically $40-$50.

    Thanks for linking me to a bunch of pretentious shit :D 
     
    I guess I wouldn't be so pissed if the original Street Fighter IV had been called the more honest title of "Street Fighter IV : Half Baked Edition" then, seeing as this seems to be the version of SFIV that the original should of been.

    Since the game will not a full priced one I will most likely buy it. I'm guessing it will be int $39.99.  While I would much more like to have it in DLC form. I'll take what they give me.
     
    P.S. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Evil Ryu.

    @Soap:  While I'd agree that the linked article is a bit over the top in spots, I think you fall victim to some of its valid accusations by not even considering the original SF4 release a full-fledged game.
     
    Disliking the fighting genre or one specific take on it is one thing, but not acknowledging Street Fighter IV as one of its complete entries is pretty bananas.

    "I don't really see a problem with "rebuying" the game, Lots of people do it with sports franchises year in, year out.. and  games like street fighter IV don't really come about all that often. I think it will be worth it, especially if youre still playing the game on a  regular basis 8 or 9 months after the games release. "


    Good point about the sports franchise camparison.  With that said, this is a day one purchase for me and if they chose to take the yearly approach I would buy the new entry every year.  I find that SF IV is the only game I play online recently, it's just plain fun when it's you and another person one on one, like a chess match.

    Is there even a release date for this yet?  Im thinking its something that will come out next year.  If so I dont think Ill have a problem buying it, jsut like when I baught the new Fight Night or Madden.  At first I was pissed this was not going to be DLC but some of you bring up good points when comparing it to games like Tiger Woods and Madden which have yearly releases.

    I'm on the fence, I was already about to rebuy it for PS3 (originally had it for 360 loved the game but the 360 is not for fighters). And was getting ready to pick it up off Amazon for $30 then the next day Super gets announced. I think I might as well get it and hope for DLC. A few new characters are not exactly worth it but I'm more worried about the online community jumping ship to Super and there only being a few peeps left on the original.
