	I'm not sure I'd call the Street Fighter IV models "frickin' gorgeous" exactly. Oshits. We are gamers with different opinions. LETS WANK @ EACH OTHER K? ;) (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Er, but yes, from what I've heard it plays like old school Street Fighter, which makes me very happy. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Admittedly, what few stills I've seen (including this one) show off the game's look much better than the videos. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Is it just me, or is there something subtly wrong about Ryu's crotch? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Subtle? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Well, you have to double-take once or twice before it hits you. That's kinda subtle... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It sure loses its subtlety when you're consciously trying to look at it, I'll tell you that much. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Operative word being 'trying'. My eyes, they slide away, and refuse to focus directly. >.o (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That's nothing. You should see Ken's. The current issue of Edge has a SFIV cover story complete with pics, and Ken's package looks oddly boxy o_O (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Seriously. Ryu was my first video game crush. No more! The game does look super fun, though. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I'm with you, that looks suhweet. I don't enjoy fighting games (Street Fighter is a great movie though :D) but I was finished up Mass Effect last night and I was not impressed with the photorealistic graphics at all. This sort of stylization is exactly what I enjoy. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	reeve 2008-01-01 04:43 am UTC (link)
	Oh yeah, me too. 3D graphics have such artistic promise, but it seems most developers want to do photorealism. I'm not really big into fighting games either, but this is probably the most visually interesting one since Mortal Kombat or Virtua Fighter. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	(Street Fighter is a great movie though :D) Glad to see someone else thinks so, too. :D ~~OMG I had such a fangirl crush on Raul Julia!Bison.~~ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Agreed. :D "Hurry! Change the channel!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That's rather delightfully old-school, in a way. I can dig it. (Reply to this)

	The environments are A++, definitely, but the character models? Not so much. Needs moar old school hippie!Ryu and Ken. (Reply to this)

	Watched the interview. Am now worrying about my Chun-Li. (Reply to this)

	My god, Ryu looks like the love child of the Michelin Man and "Heeeere's Johnny!"-moment-Jack Nicholson. (Reply to this)(Thread)

Ya rly. Ryu looks like fathead guido now, and the game looks like ass. Fortunately Street Fighter became dead to me around SF Alpha.

I'm way more concerned about that sidebar headline I saw that said Kristen Motherfucking Kreuk is playing Chun Li in a new Street Fighter 2 movie. Because the world was certainly crying out for another SF movie, with Lana "I have one expression" Lang.
