Street Fighter V

Please discuss the surprise inclusion of Ken in a Street Fighter game.

are you sure thats ken ? the prick didnt stay still enough for me to see properly ,.he seems to have gone all hipstery

i dont know if im just been worn down by all the trailers or not but its starting to look ok to me gameplay wise at the moment ,i still hate that stage though its dumb beyond dumb

[TheRedKnight]

I am glad they are trying something "new". "New" like someone who only eats nothing but crisps is willing to try a new flavour because he's loyal to the brand.

The new character that flashes on screen at the end of the video has a V on his face. So he's probably relevant to the amazing storyline that this new installment of Street Fighter will once again feature..

You know that crescendo of scary strings that they used at the end of each episode of Lost and in pretty much every TV drama and movie soundtrack since. It kind of shouts "omgomgOMFG have you **** yourself yet?" at you.

My biggest problem with SFIVetc is that they keep revealing every character with it. It's an automatic anticlimax every time.

haha /me watches most of these without sound

[TheRedKnight]

I agree with pubjosie. Very anti-climatic. To me the trailers feel like they are just fan-service for the bottom of the barrelI fanboys who will buy anything with the Street Fighter brand slapped on.

I watched the Ken trailer muted for the first time while listening to Michael McDonald drunk.

I liked the slowdown and cut to black at the end, before the ultimate reveal which was Ken does SA3 from third strike (again).

Nice of Capcom to keep up with the fuglifying of Street Fighter with the new doof Ken design. His face looks like Blanka's starfish..

too much

Alas SFV looks like they are hellbent on appealing to peepz who play fifa soccer. To me this already reeks of sell-out and feels a little like betrayal... been here since ww. Compared to the Yoshiki Okamoto games the recent Ono produced SF games are just pathetic.

I love the look of it! Ken seems to have a SFAlpha 3 vibe gameplay wise, can't wait! Table for one Mr Slugflyer?

Played the game quite a bit. Game seems to have elements from all the SF games. I definately prefer it to SF4. Feels much smoother and it flows better.

How did the speed, walk speed feel? Did you experiment with any of the v-trigger stuff?

I can put it into words but USFIV feels much more stiff compared to SFV. In SFV the action flows much better.

Speed wise ir more or less the same. Dashing seems faster. Walk speed more or less the same.

The animation is over the top, simply amazing.

... you think Capcom will add a bounce like that for Ryu's junk under his gi?

[TheRedKnight]

It's a bug that was in the E3 build. Fighters on the left side of the VS screen had issues with the physics. You can see a lightning spark appear on Chun-Li's side that's supposed to belong to Ryu. Birdie's hair was messed up on the left side, etc.

It's a pretty damn ugly game anyway.
