What format(s) are ppl picking this one up on?  I'm going Xbox360 Collectors edition ATM, but might pick it up on ps3 as well when it comes down in price a little - just to have more variety of online play.

I'll be getting the 360 version, and maybe/probably the PC version when that finally comes out.

News everybody!

360: http://www.mightyape.co.nz/product/Xbox-360/Street-Fighter-IV-Collectors-Edition/2731912/
PS3: http://www.mightyape.co.nz/product/PlayStation-3/Street-Fighter-IV-Collectors-Edition/2731911/

Collector's edition on mightyape - for $200. Ouch.

The *truly* interesting thing is that they have posted a description of the US CE bundle, with the single figurine and soundtrack, rather than the UK bundle with both figurines. This is strange because we are PAL, and presumably should be getting the UK bundle instead. I imagine this is a mistake. I *hope* this is a mistake. It's much harder to pirate a figurine.

Ive got my pre-order in already! (have had an order in for the standard edition for like six months!).  Gutted to see its the not quite as awesome UK package... if mightyape turns out to be accurate I may have to order collectors editions on both...

Yep, for the PS3 I can't imagine having any bones about importing. Unfortunately, that price is pretty much what I'd expect for a PAL release over here... the UK version is 60 pounds, and then add on a few $$$ for the "fuck you, colonies!" tax, and you arrive pretty near our figure...

I'll preorder the CE version once the confusion about the package deal is sorted. If it's the US version, I might try to see how I can wrangle a UK CE... or just buy the Ryu figure off my friend who is getting the PS3 version :/

But not the one it needs right now.
So we'll hunt him.

Probably better to get the PS3 version.. since you can use any USB pad with it. Microsoft are anal as fuck with their controllers so you get screwed in that department, but my USB Saturn pad works on my PS3 just fine. I think there's a HRAP stick out there with a USB port too..
