We'll see.

Well, if you can't stand Super Turbo then you probably won't like SF4 much tbh... but you are totally missing out.

Well it doesn't seem to have the same horrible framerate, and even though they've just rehashed the initial characters AGAIN, I'm slightly interested in C.Viper.

Hopefully it's still down in chch when I get down there on the 18th

Wait, so you're a KoF fan and are hassling Street Fighter for rehashing characters?

I quadruple lol'd after reading that.

A game is a game in the end.  Have fun or move on if you don't.

I meant, after they've remade SFII so often, SFIV just seems like SFII3D. But I am trying to hold off on bashing it completely until I've actually played it.

I'm sick of SFII, I've been sick of SFII for years now, I enjoyed it way back on my megadrive. At least KoF changes.

Anyway, keep this topic on SFIV!

It pretty much is. Feels very much like Super Turbo.

However, I don't see that you can call it the same, the primary difference is the Focus system. If you don't use focus, it's just SFII3D. If you do, it's a different game! Again, KoF is basically the same game over and over as well, they just change little things in the system each year. I'm not bashing you for liking KoF and not SF (nothing wrong with that at all), I just don't see that there's much difference between the two from a franchise-perspective.

Rosters always change, different gameplay additions(strikers/tag/maxmode/etc), new story(each game except dream-matches), tiers actually changing constantly... each KoF actually feels like a new game, thats what is so refreshing about it for me.
