Post-release Super Street Fighter 4

[[NIUE] BIRRY WONG]

Ooooooooohhhhh.

I can see myself giving yang a whirl, but id rather see how rolento would play tbh.

Well it looks like Yun and Yang are official:

I guess that means I'll save a lot of money not playing the arcade version.

What's so wrong with Yun and Yang ? I don't understand where all the hate is coming from (not necessarily just you Simon - but it seems to be a theme across the internet at the moment)

Is it because they're dive kick characters ? Or are people actually basing their decisions off of the 3S incarnations of these characters ? If people are scared of Genei Jin, I'll tell you right now, free of charge...

It. Isn't. Going. To. Work. The. Same.

For me (I can't speak for anyone else) Firstly their character design does not apppeal to me. I don't tend to like "trendy" characters. Secondly their playstyle is predictable and cookie cutter. It's so linear a into b into c to win the match. I don't feel their play style is going to add a new dimension to the game. Thirdly It feels as though there has been a lot of technical characters added to ssf4 over psychological characters. And two more technical characters bores me. Fourthly they take two spots with pretty similar playstyles. I think it would have been better to have two added characters with differing styles rather than two characters that pretty much play the same.

Mind you, Seth Killian has been quoting this after discussing SSF4 console balancing.

"Arcade version of SSFIV may have some surprises in store, so stay tuned..."

Hmm may be a reason to play after all!

(Based on the 3S incarnations) I don't think Yang/Yun are technical at all, with the exception of Genei/Senei combos, in fact almost jokingly the opposite imo.

I'm not sure if I like the idea of them in the game, but if Yang can rush shit down like in 3S I'm all for him being in it.

Edit: the picture of the arcade cab- that really looks like Urien (though a bit dark for his normal colour), maybe Elena?

[fluxcore]

Rush shit down? Are we thinking about the same SF4?

Touche.

You are if BIRRY WONG is playing.

[fluxcore]

Rumours flying around that Poison might be one of the new chars.

I wholeheartedly approve of HER being added tbh. Could be quite interesting.

[HoneyBadger]

If the dude has a penis but looks like a girl do you still call it a her? Interesting.

[fluxcore]

The only reason for the whole transexual thing was because, ironically, Americans are pussies. She was always intended to be a woman.

[CrazyMobius]

Her gender is clearly female even if her sex isn't. Anyways obviously I'd rather have Poison as Hugo's manager than an actual playable character. But more Final Fight characters can't be such a bad thing. Would be cool to see Damned as a playable character.

What was the source for the rumour Flux? SRK?

EDIT: Read the SRK Blog just now. Came from a Ono tweet.

Furthermore he states Arcade SSF4 will have more additional characters to Yun and Yang. I wonder would they be via patches or already put in as time released characters?
