There’s a lot of forum buzz about EGM reporting a strong rumor that Capcom will be announcing Street Fighter 4 for next-gen consoles - including the Wii.
We’ll keep an eye on this rumor.

I very much hope this happens! And considering there’s a teaser site for a new 2D game on the Capcom wsite, I’m sure all will be revealed soon.
HURRY UP CAPCOM AND RELEASE SF IV ALREADY!
July 16th, 2007 at 1:25 am
i think a 4 would be great, but MVC3 would actually sell better
July 23rd, 2007 at 5:01 am
Even if there is a new Street Fighter game set for release, Capcom’s 2D fighter history will never be able to surpass the Guilty Gear franchise, sorry.
Real Talk.
July 31st, 2007 at 4:31 pm
Capcom make a New Street Fighter Game Please…. MAKE STREET FIGHTER 4 as the last Street Fighter Game…
Street Fighter 4 should have…..
*All the figthers from all the:
-Street Fighter Alpha Series and Street Fighter 3rd Strike
Of course with the HD sprites or make it 3rd strike / CVS 2 sprites. Make Sheng Long as the last boss. Bison, Shin-Akuma and Gill as the sub-bosses.
I want to see Balrog vs Dudley; Hugo vs Zangief; Alex vs Birdie; Sakura vs Elena; Makoto vs Karin; Bison vs Gill; Dhalsim vs Necro; Guile vs Q; and more. Can you imagine that!!!!
*The Power Bars Should be:
*Street Fighter Alpha/Zero 3
-The X-ism
-The A-ism (Z-ism japanese version)
-The V-ism
*Street Fighter III 3rd Strike
-The best power bar and parry mechanism
*Capcom vs snk 2
-The C-Groove (a little different than A-ism)
-The A-Groove (a little different than V-ism)
-The S-Groove (only skilled players knows how to play this bar)
-The N-Groove (easy bar use for beginners)
-The K-Groove (should be there for fun)

HAHAHAHAHAHA we have a comedian here, u kill me man, u kill me for a momento i thought u were serious for this and then i notice u were just a clown making funny jokes, hahahaha man youre very good at your job of making people laugh, ups sorry just some “real talk”
September 5th, 2007 at 7:40 pm
If they do make one i believe it should be on the PS2 as well.
September 9th, 2007 at 4:16 am
Guilty Gear better than SF?! In which parallel universe?
September 13th, 2007 at 1:00 pm
Guilty Gear? The only thing I know about that is the psp game out. I’m sorry but SF is better!!!
September 15th, 2007 at 1:10 am
guilty gear will never reach the levels of depth, balance and overall excelent quality of street fighter (any of them but specially street fighter 3 third strike). one could only hope that whoever said anything different will receive the proper karmic punishment and have his thumbs removed. thank you very much and have a great night.

ok…if one more person mentions Shen-long..we are fighting….lol..shen long was not a charecter…but more or less from what i gather..having something to do with this shen-sho-ryuken..(his flaming dragon punch that scarred the chest of Sagot in a battle they had together)..why they gave this dragon punch to ken..and not ryu as well.i dunno..but in any case…Shen-long is the many rumoms which caused Akuma to be created…so…if u wanted Shen-long…(Akuma) is who u would be using…Listen up people..THERE IS NO SHEN LONG
September 30th, 2007 at 12:25 pm
Well actually GGXX is way better than SF, there is no doubt about that. Try to play it 1st SF fanboys.
October 4th, 2007 at 1:53 am
STREET FIGHTER 4????
if they make this *which i really hope they do!* i reckon they should have all the characters from all the series but make them look older (like they are aging) but also introduce a few new characters and new moves for both old and new characters
i also reckon m.bison should come back one last time at a final attempt to take over the world
October 5th, 2007 at 5:43 pm
SF4,it’s about time,i was wondering if CAPCOM had forgotten how to count to 4?They could make Shen Long a reality,but he would be so ridiculous to beat.I was in the arcades when this rumor first hit and everyone was trying their best to get to him,bummer it was an april fools joke,still CAPCOM has the brains to make him come to life.Rumor has it that SF4 has been in the works for a few years?If that’s true,then why the delay?Although Guilty Gear can never truly replace SF,it is a great “Tide-me-over” series,till the Grand daddy of fighters comes back to reclaim it’s rightful crown,STREET FIGHTER.
October 8th, 2007 at 1:37 am
Street Fighter 4 like None says should be the way he said…. of course with more characters too like Sheng long and others….. Also should be available for the PS2,Xbox360 and Wii(classic controller only).
If you do not know what none says here it is….

If their gonna make a street fighter 4, then they need to make it 3D and not 2D. 2D is pointless, if i need 2D i can just play it on an emulator or just use my Super Nintendo. Street Fighter 4 should be made just like the Alpha games were made. Stick to 3D and everything will be fine
October 8th, 2007 at 9:16 pm
Edwin We already have good games in 3D like Tekken and Soul Calibur, but Street fighter never make good on the 3D style. Maybe a 3D background will be good, but the gameplay should still in 2D.
October 11th, 2007 at 3:43 am
all fighting games have their own likes and dislikes. street fighter and guilty gear and all 3d fighters. c’mon now as a fighting game community we should stick together at least we dont get a dick from FPS genres (halo players) telling us whats good or not.
but just to help street fighter out. about guilty gear.. Street fighter doesnt need to make 30 different games to be good.. nontheless change all their moves after your good with one person. i.e. eddie extreme change from slash and accent core. and adding an EX? *cough* street fighter 3rd strike?
ok i love both games equally
October 12th, 2007 at 9:33 pm
dude street fighter is good so is guilty gear so stop arguin
October 13th, 2007 at 3:46 am
Street fighter 4, yeah. Shen Long doesnt exist but it would be cool if he did. For this game I want all the charectors back from all the games and tons of new ones and new modes. The game should have 3D sprited but be in 2D and each charector should have another “form”. The same charector but stronger. Also more abilities.
October 14th, 2007 at 7:22 am
SF4 HURRY!!!!!!!! I dont think i can wait any longer
October 14th, 2007 at 7:18 pm
Ok guys, i just came upon this room searching for sf4 and im seeing arguing about which fighting game is best. Truthfully, I personally love Street Fighter and King of Fighters. but every fighting game has helped the other fighting game realise their past faults and what they should work on, based on others work, so in all actuality, every game is the best, depending what your looking for. When I play king of fighters, im looking for Iori, Andy and Kim cause they are my favorite characters, and because they have such a speedy attack system, especially the 2006 KOF. when I want oldschool, i turn to the SF series, cause it still holds up after time, and every fighting game has characters I like, and characters I dont. Now if I want a weapon fighting game, i usually turn to guilty gear or SC. it all depends on what you want at the time. i personally practice Martial Arts, so I prefer the hand to hand games, but both genres are similar, and each have their perks and ummm….un…perks…lol. No one should be fighting about which is the best. You like SF? you like KOF, you like GG? its all up to you, but god damn, dont say ones better than the other, cause as soon as you shove that kinda opinion down our necks and try to prove a point with mumbo jumbo, your automatically wrong. Lets all get along and play Capcom Vs SNK 2,lol. hopefully they’ll eventually have an all encompossing fighting game with everyone from everything, that way we can all be happy and come together.
October 17th, 2007 at 12:49 pm
[...] a few months later may not qualify as “soon”, but Capcom has officially announced Street Fighter 4. Both GamesRadar and PlayStation [...]
October 17th, 2007 at 3:16 pm
Hey People the official word is : Capcom will be making a SF vs Mortal Kombat instead of “SF4″ … so now we can finally see who is better …. Scorpion or Ken. Later.
October 17th, 2007 at 10:04 pm
i believe if Capcom is coming out with a new SF game, it should be of the TOURNAMENT KIND. with all the top contenders in the running for the #1 fighter of all time, like MORTAL KOMBAT, SOUL CALIBUR. TEKKEN. VIRTUAL FIGHTER, AND SNK KING OF FIGHTERS. WHAT DO YOU THINK.
October 18th, 2007 at 8:31 am
Yes capcom, make another GREATLY limited supply of SF4 games that will be obscure to the eyes of the mainstream and be another sausage fest for SRK to splooge over.
Oh and capcom’s teaser site WASN’T about SF4. Sorry to burst your bubble.
October 18th, 2007 at 11:03 am
Then what was the big splashed title “STREET FIGHTER IV” indicating?
October 18th, 2007 at 10:03 pm
Street Fighter 4? “Sheng Long. . . I have wait 8 long years, trained hard against my adversary Sagat and have learned the way of the Dragon Punch, Hurricane Kick and Deep Three-Hit Auto Combo.. . . . I am ready for you!”
This is AWESOME!!! Finally the FOURTH installment!!! SF vs MK? Hmm, that could be some candy on the side. I hope it follows the Marvel vs Capcom style of fighting!!! Create a Fighter should be in there - Example: You choose Chun Li and as her powers, you give her Ryu’s Dragon Punch and Guile’s Somersault Flip. This is a basic of the basic create a character. Maybe a point system to get unreleased powers?
Check out my SSF2T Review here:

Let the frenzy begin! “Round One!”
October 19th, 2007 at 12:49 am
SF4 would be incredible! I think the only fighter from previous games should be a 50 year old Ryu (with gray streaks etc.), and maybe Ken’s son who will play like a really twisted (aka Sakura) shoto…other than that no other shotos and an all new dynamic cast. The gameplay system should be similar to SF2 and SF3, but with some great new innovations.
October 19th, 2007 at 11:21 am
Actually for all of u uneducated out there sheng long does exist as he was/is akuma’s father. the reason akuma came about was because he was jealous of ryu and ken so then learned the dark side to their fightin style which consumed him turnin him into akuma as he had another name before that but i dont remember it. akuma then kills shen long and then goes after ryu and ken! do ur research and u’ll find it! if i find the article i read i’ll post it! may be hard as i stumbled upon it while searchin for SF Wallpapers. Oh and SF is the King of all fighting games and thats that. the rest arent fluent enough. -Peace-
October 19th, 2007 at 11:47 pm
I hate this type of game.
October 20th, 2007 at 4:42 pm
Guilty gear is way better beacuse of its systems. We all know street fighter is a classic but guilty gear is 4 real. Out with the ild and in with the new
October 20th, 2007 at 8:32 pm
I jus want to say that i hope someone important reads this and can have some influence on the game making… i think that this game will b a serious hit if they make it more along the lines of Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 instead of the normal street fighter game.. if it has combos and big hit finishing moves rather than the slow one on one normal street fighter.
October 23rd, 2007 at 2:48 pm
HERES THE TRUE DEAL…
IM THE KING AT SNK vs CAP2:MILLENIUM
AND IM THE KING AT GUILTY GEAR:RELOADED
SO I THINK THERE BOTH SPECIAL IN THERE UNIQUE WAYS!!!!
if you want to find out which one is better i sujest: SvC Ultimate Mugen 2007 3rd Battle Edition v2.0
its SF:saga VS GG:reload
October 26th, 2007 at 6:31 pm
why are you guys comparing SF and GG? if half or you could get the feel of the games and stop lame #!@% braggin, you know MVC and CVS engines is a better side by side comparison to GG. Now that i think bout it
this might be a retake on the 3D game they canned…time will tell
October 28th, 2007 at 6:30 pm
Listen guys any one claiming that Guilty Gear is a better game than SF is just being funny to piss you off. There saying it on purpose to get a reaction, no one would actually be that stupid. Imagine a person so dumb they would compare such childish game to the Street Figther Master Piece.
November 3rd, 2007 at 4:06 pm
I’d much prefer this to have an engine along the lines of the Street Fighter Zero/Alpha or Street Fighter III games in comparison to MvC… I much prefer the slower pace rather than “Hey, every attack can chain!” I was never a huge fan of the autocombo systems. The VS. games weren’t bad by any stretch, but I prefer a more strategically paced game. I’m looking forward to this however, as I’ve played the hell out of SFIII and something new would be fantastic.
Oh and as far as all the Sheng Long stuff… yeah, doesn’t exist. Yay mistranslation. Anything saying he’s real is false.
November 9th, 2007 at 9:51 pm
IF streetfighter4 is real then show pic’s
December 1st, 2007 at 12:00 am
they need to put some classic characters in SF4, like Cammy, and Sagat… and leave out the lame ass characters like Oro, Twelve, and Q. those guys are about useless…
December 8th, 2007 at 4:33 pm
GG is nothing compared to SF….
February 27th, 2008 at 8:10 am
Guilty Gear is much better than SF.
