Streetfighter 4 2D or 3D?

The quickest way to ruin this franchise is to make it 3D. Streetfighter EX was okay but it was no streetfighter. I think that some fighters should just stay 2D, like also Kighter of the fighters.

Streetfighter 4 should:

1. remain 2D with updated graphics

2.Have online multiplayer with tag team options.

3. Keep all of the characters from the streetfighter universe plus at least 5 new characters. (this is nextgen people, it is possible to have 50 playable characters).

4.expand every player's story line.

5. new moves for each characters.

6. A new fighting engine so the game doesn't feel old.

This game will be bigger then Halo and Metal gear solid 4 if done correctly.

Yes, the return of the King of all Fighters!!!!

It'll still be good in 3D just as long as they allow the fireball to chase your opponent like in dragon ball and use motion capture... I just wouldn't want to see another 2D fighter not for the ps3....... 2D fighter and 2d game in general belong in psp or on the ps3 store for under 20 dollar...Xylonz

I agree with everything you've listed. The only thing I would add is I would like to see the stylized 3D graphics like in the trailer but the game remain in its "2D" view as the updated graphics. Not just redesigned 2D sprites. I wasn't sure which direction you were going when you said "remain 2D with updated graphics". :Dthestickman

capcom can go crazy with the art direction. Just as long as the games plays in 2D.

Haha sounds like my post on the Capcom Community site xP

I hope it's 2D as well along with alot of others. SFEX was crap it didn't feel like SF nor played like it or had the speed.

3D just can't give the feeling 2D gives i think that has been proven over and over by now.

Yes, the trailer is a CGI 3-D intro, but there's no need to panic, at least from our source which tells us the game will be in 2-D with spruced up graphics that will put SFIII3S to shame. If Capcom decides to follow through on their arcade release, expect to see it on Taito's Type X2, which is also supported by SNK Playmore. SF IV will be presented with HD graphics in a 16:9 frame ratio. Further details and footage will likely be shown at the AOU Show in Japan in February 2008.

Taken from Capcom-Unity...

That Taito X2 is what powered KOF XI (which in my opinion looked really nice, better than the other KOF series).

More info about the game will be made public on Friday after the media embargo has ended (also from C-U).

2d

I actualy liked the SFEX series. 2D is great and all that,but Cmon this is the next generation ppl! If capcom can't pull it off with 3D then their not really good devolepers.

BTW Powerstone is capcoms best 3d fighter to date. So I know they can pull it off.

also I'm still waiting for the next gen onimusha ^_^

Just boot up an old SF if you want 2D fighting. If 3D SF failed before it doesn't mean it will now. They have the power of the PS3 and they should be able to make the fight mechanics satisfying in 3D. How long are you going to play it if you just move back and forth, jump fire balls and get pushed to the edge of the screen? If it's going to be 2D just make it in a month and have it avaible as a $10 download.AlienOverlord

The game is so good because it is in 2D. Throwing fireballs and sonic booms in 3D doesn't have the same gameplay effects.

Mortal Kombat is the same way. Trying to make it 3D failed every time. This is why Mortal Kombat 2 and 3 where the best ones.

Fighters are a thing of the past. They were only successful because, at arcades, you could go toe to toe with someone as the crowd cheered you on. However, playing games online does not replicate this feeling.So,in response to oneposters comment, this game will never be bigger than MGS or KZ2, i doubt it even will sell well.callen3

The streetfighter franchise is huge. This franchise is bigger and has grossed more money then MGS. If this game is made exclusive to the PS3 or the other platform, the platform without this will die. I remember that streetfighter 2 turbo in the early 90s, single handedly saved the SuperNES from the genesis. There was a genesis version, but it wasn't as good. SuperNEs strated flying off shelves.

Fighters are a thing of the past right now because their not making them. The ones that do come out are the old ones from the 90s. If they reinvent the wheel and bring something new to the table in terms of the fighting engine, the days of the fighters will be reborn.

If you haven't noticed shooters are on their way out, because very time a new one pops up on the market, it brings nothing new to the table.

2d all the way!!!

I hope they don't turn it to 3d or else CAPCOM will be going down hill from there.

Maybe snk can release a new Last Blade 3 ?

It better be 2D.

I don't care how much they want to better the graphics as long as it remains 2D. That's what makes it Street Fighter.

Street Fighter EX Plus (3d) SUCKED!!!!!!!!!

Either way, true street fighter fans are soon going to be pleased. If IV turns out to be another EX plus alpha we still have the HD remix to look forward to, and all I need to know is that one way or another I will be street fighting in widescreen 1080p online. To those that say stuff like " If Capcom can't do 3D they're talentless" you just don't have a clue. Sure there have been many decent 3D fighters and a few great and although the true answer is impossible to determine, the best fighter ever is a street fighter - I vote Alpha 3but it's only true competition is within it's own franchise. BEAT 'EM UP GUY!

Street Fighter rocks the sh** yo

so i hope that it continues to do so with 4 and they dont butcher it with some new age crap

well we are in the next gen era, so...the best would be sf4 to be 3d having all the good sides of the typical 2d sf, and this is where capcom will have a hard time.

Making sf 3d as good as it is 2d? hmm start working devs...you guys will have serious headhakes on this one :P

1. Yeah I agree

2. Online yes, since SSF2THD will have it. But NO to tag team. Why? Well do you want Street Fighter or a Marvel vs Street Fighter type of game? Slapping that on regular SF is completely retarded

3. It's been said that the roster will have 18. Since it's Street Fighter 4, they're going with the storyline. All characters cannot be there if it's an official canon game.

4. Well ofcoarse everybody will have a story

5. They've always had new moves added in pretty much every SF game

6. Again, it's SF4. Same as above.

And please don't bring Halo or Metal Gear into this...

I hope is 3D. Capcom only did one 3D street fighter, although wasn't very good but witht he power of the next gen system, it has every chance to be as good as Tekken or SC. They shuold have some sort of cut-scene just like Tekken to make the matches more meaningful. Thomas-Crown

Or maybe they can do 2D like gameplay with 3D polygons. That way it can shut boths sides up lol (2D vs 3D)
