http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/x4dqrn Street Fighter fans owe Akihabara News today. Their coverage of some arcade trade show thing over in Japan has resulted in a high-def gameplay video (you may have to go to Aki to see the high-def version, I’m not sure how the embed code works) and more than 20 photos of IV. The video more than speaks for itself, so rather than re-hash what we’ve already said about the game, I’ll leave you to your own devices.

Methinks these scans are slightly distorted, or else the art director for Street Fighter IV has a thing for squat, powerful young ladies (and beasts). Either way, I’m pumped for some SFIV, though my heart will always be with Samurai Shodown II or IV — Ukyo FTW! Anyway, check out the character art and a few screens straight from Famitsu.

Now, I’m not sure this is in the proper sequence or not, but I think it is based on the numbering of each image. So SFIV has some special move to cancel a special move, according to Euro Gamer. Fans should be able to spot the enormous fireball immediately following the initial small burst. Do you see it?

I haven’t been to Japan in over two decades, so I’m pretty sure I’m due for a trip out East. We know Street Fighter IV is coming and now we’re being told that a playable demo is coming next month. The product manager spilled the beans on the game’s official Japanese Weblog days ago. If you’re in or around Tokyo on February 15th you may want to visit the AOU 2008 Amusement Expo. Tell us all about it and you’ll surely be the talk of the town. Street Fighter IV Going Playable [IGN UK] → Read More
[photopress:edg184.f_street.mov30_prev.jpg,full,center] Edge has the most in-depth, best written article on Street Fighter IV you’ll ever read (unless Vanity Fair decides to write about it). Longtime fans of the series—it’s my favorite series, followed by Silent Hill—will be pleased to know that the game’s producer wants to bring it back to its Street Fighter II roots: “combos became too important [in subsequent fighting games]. That’s not real fighting,” says the producer. Nearly 4,000 very encouraging words await you. FEATURE: Street Fighter IV Unwrapped [Edge/Next Gen] → Read More
