As each day goes by I become more and more convinced SFIV is going to be an unfun piece of shit if they don't stop pandering to the perceived purist SFII fanbase and bring back some 3rd Strike elements.

Yes, but can you do a Shoryu Reppa into a Shippu Jinrai Kyaku. :P

Super canceling is very basic stuff.

Can you link a crouching medium punch into a Shippu while hit confirming?

Better yet, can you link two Shoryukens in the middle of the screen?

That's serious high level play.

You need to kara cancel the second Shoryuken for it to work.

I think I've only seen it done once in an actual match.

Anyway, Street Fighter 4 is going to knock my socks off.

That new character doesn't look too good though.

Yeah, super canceling isn't hard, I just wanted to mention two supers in one sentence. :P

Actually, the Shoryuken is not super, it's a special.

Hooray for Street Fighter lingo!

Yeah, believe me, I know all about Street Fighter. As you can see, I said Shoryu Reppa, one of my favorite supers. I've also heard them called hyper combos, but it's whatever. :D

As for my skill at the game, I'm pretty good actually. However, sadly I'm not one of these insanely skilled guys you see in those crazy videos. However, if you're not about that good yourself, I'm sure I'll be able to keep up. Heh, might even win some. ;)

SFIV will be offering online play, that should be interesting.

I'll probably be playing Street Fighter 4 on Live non-stop.

As long as lag isn't a big issue.

How can you tell? I don't see anything that gives a good comparison for size, except the picture of his low HP on Blanka. If you're talking about his chest I think that's just a perspective thing because of his exaggerated small waist due to his background in an impoverished village.

It's good to see progress, but since the interviews I've read with Ono had said that everyone in SF2 was planned to come back, it isn't much of a surprise. New characters or SF3 characters plz.

How can you not?

Look at his arms and shoulders, looks like an Indian version of Guts.

To me it just looks like a forced perspective because of the angle, the art style, and the shadows(?) on the picture. Also, because his has his head in an awkward pose it makes his shoulders look huge.

its his shoulders, that makes the frame of his body look big. Of course next to blanka or gief he won't look very big, but from the artist picture, i thought he looked bigger than any version of a fighter that we have ever had him in.

Guile's face looks weird.

Everything else looks swell.

Except Crimson Viper.

I love Ikeno but damn, is that a lame character design.

The art for Crimson Viper looks fucking terrible. It's like they ripped her straight out of some Tekken-meets-DoA abomination and slapped some ink stains on the image in a low-effort attempt to make her look consistent with the other characters.

Ken looks decent, Ryu ridiculous.
