That's the exact same engine as SF4, they've boosted character poly count and added some additional post process effects. This should run great on any PC though.

The most remarkable thing for many came from Adam Boyes, VP, Publisher & Developer Relations of Sony Computer Entertainment.

"PlayStation 4 will be the only console Street Fighter 5 ever appears on," said Boyes.

This was quite a shocker, as many people, ourselves included, had assumed this would be a timed exclusive, but as it turns out, this game will never see the light of day on another console — not even Sony's PlayStation 3.

PS4 console sales are currently pegged at 13.5 million units worldwide. Street Fighter 4 sold roughly 8 million copies across various platforms, but it's hard to envision the latest entry generating the same numbers being limited to just one console platform, even though Sony's next-generation hardware sales continue to impress.

It was stated that the next entry in the Street Fighter series is being specifically tailored to Sony's next generation hardware.

"Street Fighter 5 will be built from the ground up for PlayStation," added Boyes. "We partnered with Capcom on the development of Street Fighter 5, we're working together to make Street Fighter the ideal game for console."
Yoshinori Ono, the executive producer of Street Fighter at Capcom, added a few statements as well.

"When we first began working on what's next for the vision of the Street Fighter franchise, we reached out to PlayStation," Ono said through a translator.
This sounds like a Nintendo/Bayonetta 2 situation....

Sony is co-funding this game with IOUs. Ono reached out to Sony, Adam Boyes put his hand in his pocket and pulled out what looked to be cheque book. Turns out it was his note book. He then wrote IOU $3million dollars and signed it with an X.

Lot of people seem to not want sf5 because they are happy with 4 already.

That doesn't make sense to me given how many call of duty and assassins creed games there are. Are people just pretending to hate it because it's cool to not give a shit about fighters?

Imagine if sf4 didn't get made? Capcom almost killed off this franchise like they did with megaman because of a belief nobody cared about SF anymore. Maybe 5 will get scrapped and SF fans can finally know what being a megaman fan feels like and then the fighting game gets a kickstarter clone game instead? (much like mighty number 9 is going to be for megaman fans)

I think nintendo should have purchased capcom already ffs. I would have preferred they own the series since arcade fighters are a niche now like vertically scrolling shmups and survival horror.

Hopefully they bring back super jumping in 5 like in sf3. They also had wall bounce in 3 too so if that is back this is good news. Not really a fan of 4'ss jump physics as characters all feel the same in the air unlike in other sf games like the alpha series where jump styles were unique to the character.

No, the FGC is absolutely ready for SF5.

The Eurogamer article is written by one person, not the FGC.

Curious if they're going to trim the character roster down, 4 had a lot of updates and built that roster up, be a shame if we have to start all over again with only world warriors set.

Kinda like CoD and buying all the map packs for MW only to have to buy them again for BO, MW2, BO2 etc? ;)

They could start with a big roster but balance patch it every time one whiney guy complains his fave character was nerfed. (patch every ten minutes)

FGC and arcade gamers = beta testers for the true final version of the game.

MVC 2 was unbalanced but still fun with its big roster of recycled sprites. Less .5 releases and more fine tuning is what is needed. The FGC is tiny compared to the casual gamers out there that play SF for fun and not engaged in competitive esports. If capcom as a company is to survive the presentation of the game must be good enough to keep growing the fanbase with each sequel instead of dividing it like sega saturn/32 x. (ie .5 releases like with mvc3-umvc3)

BTW would love to see HD remake of SF alpha 3 and SFIII. They could use polygons that look just like the old hand drawn sprites like Guilty Gear xrd sign and sell alternate costumes to rich kids but enhance the games with dramatic camera angles for supers and stuff like you see in sf4 when ultras are done. Capcom listen to me or you will go broke. You didn't include haggar, you gave hobbit feet to ryu, blanka looks nothing like the original, and you failed to bring sf4 to wii u where it belongs and killed megaman. You need to be smacked in the face. Stuff that is easy to do like porting dragon's dogma to pc, you don't bother doing. Are you deliberately being run into the ground by hostile members of staff acting as plants for rival game companies?

Releasing sf5 for pc is idiotic given the piracy, hacking and modding to cheat on that platform. WTF?? (how do you make money selling costumes when people do that for free on pc?) Hopefully you guys learn from mistakes one day.
(hint: DMC remake was shit)

1080p 60fps video.

Safe to say it already looks a hell of a lot better than SF4 visually.

SF4 Ultra is finally going to get ported to next gen/current gen machines too btw.

They should not have announced 5 so early because it will affect sales of sf ultra port.

See how dumb capcom is? SF4 ultra on ps4 should chuck in a new character for those who bought it already on last gen machines as an incentive to upgrade.

Maybe add Guy's master from alpha 2?
he looks exactly like guy but with green costume and different hair and captain Price's face from call of duty. Wouldn't be hard for capcom to recycle all Guy's animation and add a few new moves to differentiate him from guy. (scrap the nike shoes just let him have normal footwear and let him confront guy as rival character. Make it so he's faster than guy but with less health and more technique)

Call it SF4 Ultimate (like ultimate mvc3)

I think you'll find sony blocked usb devices that don't have encryption handshaking hardware.
PlayStation 4 incompatible with PS3 Mad Catz Tournament Edition FightSticks. Joystiq confirmed today with Mad Catz senior product development manager Richard Neville. "Playstation 4 will require a whole new set of peripherals," Neville said.

Seriously?!? That is just farked (pardon my French) !!! :down:

With this in mind, I don't see the point of investing on the PS4 if I can't use my existing PS3 joysticks. I will buy this game on the PC when the Super Ultra Arcade Edition comes out.

Feel the same about the Logitech G27 wheel. Thought Sony were going to be backing that again this gen after the PS2 & 3, but now no support at all, unless the devs some how incorporate it into games (Can be done, just up to individual developers). No Logitech support means no GT7 when that drops and Sony will feel the pinch from all last gens wheel owners voting with their wallet.

Watched Capcom Cup all day, which obviously included the SF5 stuff at the end.

The animation looks fucking awesome, SF3 qualerty. In fact everything they showed looked great, right down to the noodles on Chun Li's head :lol:

Charlie coming back is also fucking awesome. Fuck I hope Urien is in this game too......

Looks underwhelming in that 60fps video, the shading/lighting is weird, they look like clay/dolls.

The strike effects look last gen, particle simulation/effects please, some screen space reflections please, physically based lighting needed. Animation looks excellent though.

It definitely does look better than SF4, but there's nowhere near a generational gap between them on first impressions.

Sounds about right for current gen consoles! It's not Soul Blade to Soul Calibur.

I think that might indicate timed exclusive. See if it's not impressive enough to lestat, then capcom must be being paid by ms to hold back on effects so the ps4 doesn't outshine the upcoming bone version. Like Ubisoft, Capcom is a desperate third party whore. sif it's a true exclusive... (resident evil revelations used to be exclusive too you know)
Can't wait for wii u edition with all the balance patches applied.

Nice to see charlie with a gem on his forehead. (more alpha characters please) It's obviously not him. It's that shapeshifting guy from SFIII who got stuck in one mode and isn't allowed to change back.

It's kinda sad that capcom isn't revisiting other fighting game series like darkstalkers or tech romancer or even rival schools. I think the time between sf4 and sf5 is still too short. They are cannibalising the franchise by making too many of the same thing in short space.

You're gonna have to wait for a Wii U version CrackHED, because it's not going to happen.

I would have preferred CvS3 or a new Alpha game, but a "sequel" to Third Strike sounds fine as well.
