[pswii60]

I was hoping for DMC

 

[Shiina]

Seems the same is SFIV. Especially just after Ultra.

The trailer doesn't even say 2015, though, so this is probably a early-mid 2016 release. That's around 2 years of Ultra.

 

[Sesha]

Is this really a big deal? I think SF has become quite niche. Maybe it's just me.

Street Fighter is probably the biggest it's been since the SF2 arcade days.

I was hoping for DMC

There is still hope.

 

[gribbles]

People need to stop comparing this with the Tomb Raider deal.

Tomb Raider is FULLY EXCLUSIVE to Xbox One. Not even PC is getting it.

At least this game is also coming to PC, so you Xboxers can still pick the game up. You Xboxers are getting the better deal overall.

 

[Forkball]

Don't come crying to me 9 months after SFV launches and all of you bite into the hype and buy it and Capcom announces Super Street Fighter V.

You can't say you weren't warned.

But now with our digital overlords, we can pay a smaller fee if we have the original game and treat the new version like DLC ala USFIV. I think everyone in this thread already knows SSFV is coming.

 

[Percy]

But but what if the game was in danger of being cancelled before Sony swooped in to save the day? Haha...obviously not the case, but you can fully expect all of those mental gymnastics and rationalising BS that have been employed for similar cases to this to now come back to bite certain fans on the ass. I'll never be in favour of moneyhatted multiplats to be clear, but the fallout here should make for entertaining reading I guess.

Gotta say though, it's good that Capcom aren't actively trying to deceive anyone about or delay the PC version of this like they did with Dead Rising 3 (Which was stated as 'never' coming to PC at least once iirc). The belief that tha game was Xbox One only for keepsies was the primary factor for me picking up an Xbone at launch. Regrettable decision now of course.

PC owners being completely unaffected here at least is a good thing. Still wish that had been the case with Tomb Raider 2 though.

 

[Atilac]

Is tr2 coming to pc? Microsoft shouldn't be upset, they started this 3rd party exclusive bs.

 

[SykoTech]

Btw guys, let's not jump to conclusions and assume this is happening for wrongful reasons.

Ono says no budget for Street Fighter V.

Huh, must have missed this. Guess the hint was already planted awhile ago.

Bring back Juri and I'm all in.

This. Well, I'm in regardless, but Juri better be back.

And she most likely will be given her popularity. Just hope she's still as fun as hell to play as.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Got a mirror?

 

[mocolostrocolos]

So... what if the game is just exclusive to PS4 and PC in Japan?

 

[Salex_]

From what i can tell the reactions would be very different. Remember the Rise of the TR thread? Yeah..

I hate all the console wars crap, but the positive reaction for this being Playstation exclusive is odd. Even more so when compared to the vitriolic shitstorm that followed the Tomb Raider announcement.

Use some common sense.

This forum has a lot of PC gamers, the game was announced as a PS4/PC game, and the game is smaller compared to Tomb Raider.

The meltdowns obviously won't be the same as the TR situation.

 

[Orniletter]

Dick move Sony, dick move...

And this probably means no surprise DMC announcement

Thats where I'm at.

It is disappointing to see Sony do the same shit Microsoft did.
...and I was hoping for a different game announcement.

...and I say that as someone who'll buy a PS4 early next year and never touch an XBone .

Edit: What duckroll said is correct. Wait and see before hurling around accusations.

 

[MastorofPuppetz]

It won't stay PS4 and PC exclusive that's for DAMN SURE.


Also trailer here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2IQQaHWomU

Why do people keep saying this? Does ms own the rights for games staying exclusive?

 

[Diablos]

Interesting development!

 

[Shyakugaun]

Much of the outrage with Tomb Raider is because Lara has an extensive associated history with playstation and PC. There isn't really an established history for street fighter and Xbox.

Lol I gotta call bullshit

 

[Stone Ocean]

Calm down we don't even know if it's a full exclusive, people forget Sony is very incompetent when it comes to deals like these. At worst there is a timed exclusivity going on, which also sucks. But what can we do? It's not that complaning will make matters better.

On the other hand, didn't Ono say he didn't get the funding he needed for a new Street Fighter? Lets not jump to conclusions and wait for what the people at Capcom/Sony have to say about this, this could even be a Bayonetta 2 situation where Sony (partly) funded the development for console exclusivity.

I don't see where "Exclusively on PS4 and PC" with no asterisks or small text or dates/years leaves any room for doubt. It's pretty clear to me.

 

[iori9999]

Yo PS4 only on console though..

 

[2San]

- Japanese trailer
- No press release yet
- Video pulled because it wasn't supposed to be up yet

Maybe all the console warriors on either side should sit down until there's an official announcement worldwide? Because if you're releasing any game in Japan from now on, you're probably not going to consider Xbox as a viable platform to even market for.

True, this makes a lot of sense.

 

[SgtCobra]

So... what if the game is just exclusive to PS4 and PC in Japan?

Nothing. It will get a western release in the west.

 

[DemonNite]

But you hate news leaking early...

There's more to be jolly about at the show?

i dont hate anything. I'm a fan just like you

 

[Xando]

Tis the season to be jolly

Oh god, theres more?

 

[Platy]

Expected a diferent artstyle/direction.

Looks SF4 (even more) HD =/

 

[Altairre]

Did anyone manage to grab the teaser? Seems I was a bit too late.

 

[Mass_Pincup]

I see people saying this, but what's the reasoning for it? How it less of a dick move just cuz there's a PC version?

Because more people can play it then if it was PS4 only?

 

[GeoramA]

That's pretty goddamn huge,

Sony has gotta be partially funding it. It's been teased by them for a year now, with that Hadoken Cabs commercial.

 

[Celestial Mortal]

So I haven't tested it, but is my joystick for SFIV compatible with PS4? Was going to give Injustice a go this weekend. That's honestly the only way this new game would be on my radar. I'm not buying a new stick and I'm not playing with a standard controller.

Why bring a stick to a fist fight?

 

[Seven Force]

I'd say the explanation is pretty simple.

Ono wanted to make a SF5 but couldn't get funding, so Sony stepped in to make it happen.

It happens.

This, pretty much. Like, you could look at almost any Ono interview asking about the future of SF past IV, and he'll most likely mention how difficult it is to get stuff funded at Capcom these days. Hell, I'm pretty sure some of those interviews might have had GAF threads.

 

[Kaako]

Just woke up and I see this!? Yooooo gimmi that SFV!

 

[FTF]

Damn, that's huge. Could be Japan only, but damn.

Hopefully this being revealed the day before the show means there's still other megatons to announce tomorrow!

 

[Sn4ke_911]

lol that was faster than you can say "Hadouken!"

Also as much as i loved the art style in SF4. SFV needed something completely new, looks like a SF4.5 :/

 

[orioto]

Wat wat wat panic mode engaged, trailer doesn't work for me, video is private.

GIF time !

 

[Martylepiaf]

First mounth of SSF IV in the USA (where there is more 360 than PS3) :
143k on PS3
108k on 360

 

[Shepherd]

So is it now "cool" to buy exclusivity?

 

[Cyborg]

Not what I was hoping for but I can see a lot of you guys are happy

 

[Can Crusher]

Exclusives are good. Makes the market more fun.

Will get on PC.

It is disappointing to see Sony do the same shit Microsoft did.

Such a weird sentiment.

 

[LFMartins86]

This is huge. I wonder how "exclusive" it is though

Capcom just shot themselves in the foot.

I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Street Fighter 5 for either system, nor will they purchase any of Capcom's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Capcom has alienated an entire market with this move.

Capcom, publicly apologize and cancel Street Fighter 5 for PS4 or you can kiss your business goodbye.

Brilliant.

 

[KingSnake]

As someone hoping to play Tomb Raider on PC, you're right it isn't.

It will come on PC anyhow.

 

[Seanspeed]

Get a PC. There are options unlike the Tomb Raider deal.

Yea man, just buy a $600+ PC. Problem solved!

You'd think the more obvious solution would be to 'get a PS4', but either way, the exclusivity hurts a lot of people who would have wanted this.

 

[Syril]

Nope: SF2 CE was exclusive to Genesis, and SF2 Turbo was to SNES. Genesis got robbed.

I thought those were both the same game, just that Sega and Nintendo each demanded a special title so it looked like they got special exclusive versions.

 

[jackissocool]

I'd say the explanation is pretty simple.

Ono wanted to make a SF5 but couldn't get funding, so Sony stepped in to make it happen.

It happens.

Really? Street Fighter is not Bayonetta. A sequel inevitable - it's a absolutely huge franchise for Capcom. You've gotta be in some denial to believe this is anything other than a shitty money hat where Sony paid to fuck over Xbone owners. It's possible more evidence will come to light that changes things but right now Sony is in straight up villain mode.

I was so fucking excited for a collaboration between Ono and Japan Studio on something crazy and new. Bullshit.

 

[KalBalboa]

Did SFIV sell well on 360 in Japan? The Xbox One's install base probably didn't make this Capcom/Sony deal hard to manifest.

 

[tzare]

Probably a snes vs megadrive situation. Sf5 ps4. Sequels on both

 

[mike4001_]

As the Playstation Folk would say.

No exclusive because also on PC

Spoiler

sorry

 

[Tesseract]

Expected a diferent artstyle/direction.

Looks SF4 (even more) HD =/

hell yeah

 

[allan-bh]

Microsoft shouldn't be upset, they started this 3rd party exclusive bs.

Microsoft started? Of course not.

 

[spindashing]

So is it now "cool" to buy exclusivity?

Nah. Only nerds do it.

 

[Bumpers]

It's interesting though and possibly a precedent to come. Guilty Gear Xrd is Playstation exclusive, and now SFV is console exclusive to PS4.

Hoping to see PS4LAG appear as a top donor during EVO.

 

[StuBurns]

- Japanese trailer

There's no point trying to be the voice of reason, DemonNite is already teasing. It's exclusive, everywhere. Might as well hash it out now so GAF isn't completely nuked during PSX.

i dont hate anything. I'm a fan just like you

I think a real fan of games would PM me TLG's trailer, but okay, I'll let it slide this once.

 

[Mpl90]

Ok, didn't expect this game to not be on Xbox One. At all.

EDIT: Actually, what duckroll said could be ture as well: Japanese trailer, so the game could still be released on Xbox One outisde of Japan. We'll have to see, I guess.
