I remember reading about Street Fighter 4, thinking how it'll be a very long time before that one ever sees the light of day. Fast forward to the present, the game is coming out in little over a week already!
It has been a long time since I've really played any of the Street Fighter games and truth be told, I actually like the Alpha series better for a while (before they started throwing in more and more characters into it). As far as the main series goes, the last time I put any time into one of 'em was way back in Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo.
Good god I feel old...
It is good to see the main staples of the game returning, though I kind of wish Capcom followed a little to what the makers of Tekken did. By that I mean show some age in the characters, just to show that the story is indeed moving forward rather then just being stuck in one time period.
On the other hand, after reading the stories behind each of the fighters, it would seem the overall story itself has moved on at the very least. I still think it amazing how no one has at all changed any of their clothes in the past 10+ years...
Maybe they have some... I don't know... attachment issues maybe?
I'm also liking the new art style, which I'm glad they've gone with because some of the previous games (namely those under the Street Fighter 3 series) looked bulky and just not very clean? I don't know how to exactly word what I'm thinking right now.
Anyway, still can't wait to try this one out and see what has and has not changed over the years.
