It comes out on my birthday!!!! ヾ(*´∀｀*)ﾉ
I mean, in my experience it was net code, loading, amount of players available, and skills. I always felt like I was challenged more playing on Live and never ran out of people to play. After a while, I would only go back to the PS3 version cuz I'd get invites. Just overall a better experience for me on 360. Almost everyone I'd talk to or knew that had both versions came down on the same side. "Shrug"
Really hope it's better for PS4. The Steam version seems like it'll never run well at this point. The net code is simply fucked.
I think its because MVC3 and UMVC3 as well as SF4 are inferior ports

I'd say it's very likely that Capcom will go for it. Anyone can implement these drivers. While it may have been a good idea to partner up for merchandised sticks in 2009 when many gamers didn't have USB controllers, the FGC is pretty much loaded up with USB sticks these days, and asking people to buy them all over again for a port, a port geared for Evo at that, would be very dumb. These things are really expensive, and not many people will be happy about starting a collection.
And I'll stick my neck out by saying that Capcom will absolutely without a doubt integrate PS3 USB for SFV, it'd be suicide for the game if they didn't, although I'm sure you can expect the usual 'event' sticks for it as well. Capcom are opportunistic, sure, but they're not idiots.
Human beings come into this wonderful thing we call existence, they start playing games, they've gotta start somewhere.

Are preorders available now? I can see quite a few jaggies in the pictures. I hope they sort this out before release.

Do we have video of this? In at $25 pretty much regardless of course.
I assumed it came with all the costumes, no?

This has been my main game since the original SF4. Buying it for the millionth time, along with a new stick. Hopefully they announce whether PS3 sticks will work or not. $25 is an incredible price for this.
Every single piece of DLC is included, but I'm sure they'll release more.

OMG must buy
Is there any lag free way to use a 360 TE stick with a PS4?

I just saw this was announced earlier, I'm excited! I bought SF4 twice last gen and put maybe an hour into it total, but I have somebody to play against regularly this time so hopefully I'll play it more.
Great price too, I didn't expect I'd buy it at launch but now I will for sure. I'm slightly bummed at no physical copy, but I'm probably better off this way for an MP focused game you can play in short sessions.

You get all the costumes that are out at the time of release, so yeah, a lot more costumes are coming.

Does this game have a TTT/DOA5-style soundtrack option?
Because what I played from vanilla 4 was absolutely dire, music-wise.

No, it doesn't.
You didn't like 4's soundtrack?
Stage themes I understand, but character themes?
That's fair, and I appreciate the level-headed response. I actually wasn't aware of how many responsibilities you have at Mad Catz.
Call me cynical, but until PS3 controller support on PS4 Capcom games is formally and officially announced, I'd rather take the safe road and not make decisions assuming it's going to happen because nothing ever seems to be set in stone in this industry.

How does this happen?
What's worse is there are people out there who have never played a Zelda game or GTA before, Gaffers included.
after steam update like 2 weeks ago I have not ran into any problems with the netcode on USF4.

Physical disc and box please.
Not quite what you're asking for but i have seen Street Fighter soundtracks on Spotify so you'll be able to use those if you want, even if you're not a subscriber.

Plenty of people are still saying it's fucked. I played earlier today and had terrible lag in certain matches. Just a couple days ago, I'd disconnect from Steam altogether while playing. It's been like that since day one. No other game cause that for me. Capcom simply abandoned it. Good for you that it's working, though. I give up.

Haven't played SF4 since the original but for $25 count me in.
Yeah, I've only played like 10 minutes of GTA. Games aren't for me.
Maybe the person is really young, but it's hard to imagine anybody 25 years of age or older that hasn't thrown a fireball.
Could be my bias showing.

This is the deciding factor for me. It'd be neat to have an option for streaming Ultra super easily, but no one is playing that shit on pad.
Lots of people play SF4 on a pad.
Several of the best players in the world play on pad.
Will definately buy. I've had SF4 vanilla, super, and arcade edition(that one i had for both 360 and PS3), but never bought any DLC.
I waited for Ultra specifically for a PS4 version, so this makes it the definitive version for me.
It'll be a good hold over to SF5(which i hope they actually advance the roster a bit not just in new or returning characters but also storyline wise, 20+ Sakura plz)

They really need to include the drivers for ps3 sticks...but I guess madcatz needs to make money.
Will probably have to buy a ps4 stick at some point too

Sorry, didn't mean to imply no one does. No one that I play with locally does.
SF4 itself has been fixed for about a week now (after the steamworks API update hit the main client for all users, beta or otherwise). I haven't experienced any stutters in the past week I've played. The dozens of peeps on my friend list report the same. The issue might be something else, mate. Day and night difference for me from the stutter-fest it used to be.
Steam disconnecting might be another issue entirely not a part of SF4. Might be cause of the recent GTA5 downloads bringing down the servers in your region. I haven't noticed it, though.
