Reckon they might just drop a few DLC packs for this or will they be focusing more on MvC 3 now?

[viperxmns]

They've been developing MVC3 the whole time they've been working on TvC and SFIV as well (some workload.. and some secret!), so I figure SSFIV DLC shouldn't be out of the question..

So apparently that 'bonus' they were letting us on with SSFIV for holding on to regular SFIV is a couple more colors. Woop de doo.

In other news, we're just about at launch.. crap, when am I gonna pick up Super now..

Just feel like I need to say I'm absolutely in love with Balrog's remixed theme. It almost has a certain Daft Punk quality.

Balrog

I think I saw somewhere you can unlock the option to have just the character themes play in stages. If so I'm turning it on asap. Nothing against the new songs. They're good, it's just the old ones are classics and better.

[DiGi Valentine]

OoooOooo. You're right, that Balrog remix is heavy! I love that!!

Dudley's remix is hands down the one i'm looking for though. That's a rave tune, man! They should totally blast that in clubs.

[viperxmns]

So why is it they didn't give out Super's OST with any special editions? >,<

Amazon is having a small discount on SSFIV, and is also offering a bonus $10 credit towards another game. Neat.

Been playing this game a lot since Tuesday and damn is it good. Still Street Fighter IV but all the new content is great and I'm enjoying the character tweaks I've noticed so far. Up to this point I've been mostly trying to reacquaint myself with Bison and his new move properties as well as his bitchin' new Ultra but I've also been playing around a lot with Juri and Hakan and I've got to say, these two are really hard characters to use. They're great additions, but damn.

Juri is a fairly straightforward character except she can hold her fireballs which requires some good dexterity and forethought to use effectively. That and her timing for her combo execution seems really tight. Maybe it's because I like charge characters but I can't combo with her for sh!t. Beyond that she's got crappy stamina and unsafe moves up the wazoo. She's good, but I don't see why the scrubs are flocking to her.

Hakan is just friggin' nuts and I really, really like playing him. Dude is a blast but so hard to use. Paying with him is juggling between going on the offensive and keeping oiled up since that's when he's at his best. Thing is you always need to find a good time to get oiled since you leave yourself open. Add to the mix how being oiled changes the properties of his normals and you have one really tricky character to use. Still, he's a blast and I plan to actually use him competitively.

I'm almost completely satisfied with the current roster. I just wanted Rolento instead of Adon and Elena instead of Makoto. If they add these characters I'll be totally satisfied. Personally I'd rather not see Rainbow Mika added. I like her and everything but there are already plenty of wrestler/grappler characters in the game and the high flying wrestler type is already covered by Fuerte.

I'll sub Rolento in a heartbeat if he's added. I don't care if he's worse than Hakan or totally broken. Rolento is the man.

Revival!

Seems there may be new fighters soon...:http://kotaku.com/55...new-challengers

[Zero-Shift]

Rolento! Rolento! My kingdom for Rolento!

[viperxmns]

Bah, it sure seems like Rolento DLC has fallen on the backburner while they announce stuff for MVC3 and such. We keep hearing about new characters coming to the arcade release, but we need Rolento on XBLA and PSN.

So I'm way-late to the party, but I recently got Super Street Fighter IV, and the sexy beast of a controller that is the Tournament Stick (Capcom was having a sale... I couldn't say no). I've said it before, but I'll say it again - I suck at fighting games but love them anyway. (Playing on Medium difficulty, I've beaten it once as Ryu but gave up as Ken. I'll try again next time. I haven't even practiced with the other characters yet.)
I'm not planning on going online anytime too soon; I know it's full of people who know what they're doing, but this is a delight. And the Tournament Stick... I've never been so comfortable with controlling characters in a fighter before! Every direction is so smooth and well defined... it is joyous.

Ono's not ruling anyone out yet.

Side note, I'm doing some reading since I got curious about something. Wait wait wait. Poison might be a dude? Wha?

[Zero-Shift]

Damn these teaser tweets! I almost want to say Elena, Urien or Gill. I can swear I see a thong there.

Oni Akuma looks bad-ass. I couldn't see myself playing as either of them though.

[Zero-Shift]

Forgive me if I don't totally flip my lid over MORE shotos in this game. XD

Is it just me or does Oni Akuma kinda look like that retarded scientist from that crappy Alpha movie?

[viperxmns]

Yeah I kinda wonder what the hell's the deal with clone Ryu and Akumas being in the game before freaking Rolento or Elena. WTF, Ono? Don't be like Sega with ASR now.

[Roam]

Eh, I'm not particularly fond of Oni Akuma or Evil Ryu as additions. If they ever see a console side release, I suppose that's just more shoto scrubs for me to floss with.

I kinda dropped SSF4 early this year because my improvement seriously plateaued. Reading about Hakan's buff makes me eager to oil up again. XD

[Roam]

Well, now it looks like the SSFIV AC DLC is finally out. Anyone getting back into the game for it?

I for one am looking forward to being showered with Oni Akuma and Evil Ryu.

[viperxmns]

I still think it's a bit lacking in the new character department *coughRolento*coughElenacough*, kinda hoping the DLC version might be on sale at some point in the near future.. otherwise I'd like to get back into Super in the near future, been busy with other games
