Rumour: SF IV PS3 Exclusive Will Clash With MGS4 On June 12

The latest rumour to swirl around the ankles of the gaming giant that will be Street Fighter IV is that it will not only be PS3-exclusive but that its release date clash with PS3-exclusive Metal Gear Solid IV. SPOnG's here to crush it.

It is being suggested that Street Fighter IV will be released on June 12th, the launch date that has just been announced for Konami's stealthy shooter. It will also, like MGS4, be PS3 exclusive according to speculation. The rumour has done the rounds of a couple of French sites. Jeuxvideo.fr tells us, "We have just noticed that the editor just listed Street Fighter IV on the platform dedicated to the European press. One of the details is that the title is only announced on PS3, for the 12 June 2008." - Via Spong

[mighty_douche]

hmmm i very much doubt ALL the info, especially the release date, Capcom said it will be in arcades from summer so there is no way they could possibly have it on the consoles by June 12th.

Oh and exclusive? no likely... its Capcom... mind you, their Rep said ""We haven't even announced any home console versions for the game yet" so its not completely out of the question.

[Amagai Shuusuke]

Only an arcade version will be
out this summer, and as for PS3
exclusive. One word, Capcom.
Not gonna happen.

[TheTwelve]

Capcom giving a good, exclusive game to the PS3? Sorry, but we Sony fans will not be so lucky anytime soon.

12

[therealwillie]

i think it could be a typo, SF IV Will Clash With PS3 Exclusive MGS4 On June 12

[Sevir04]

First off Capcom hasn't even given SF4 am arcade release date only saying that it'll be this summer and thats for Japan. With Capcom exclusives are as certain as O.J Simpson Claiming he didn't commit murder. This Is baseless as Capcom hasn't even themselves confirmed Home consoles So I call utter BS on the article and Whom ever wrote this POS needs to have their head examined thorougly.

Capcom + PS3 exclusive Street fighter 4.... LMAO!!! in a perfect world i guess

[f7ss1]

this has to be the most ridiculous rumor ive ever heard

[sonarus]

besides the fact that 360 controller is a complete failure for fighters at least in my opinion(d pad has webbed feet making it function almost like a 3rd stick and you can't really enjoy a fighter on a console playing with a stick) i doubt this is possible. Capcom really shouldnt be foolish trying to sneak their way in with mgs4. Honestly this game can go 360 exclusive for all i care, if its coming out within 2 weeks of mgs4 its not going to get any attention from me. Plus from what i have seen of SF i have been completely unimpressed. Most anticipated fighters for the yr remain as Tekken 6 and Soul Calubur 4 and thats only because of darth vader. would have been nice to use yoda too though so i'll prob rent on 360 or maybe they will be kind enough to offer a demo for both versions so i can decide if its really worth buying

[UnblessedSoul]

Maybe it's Capcom trying to make it up to ps users, but it's Capcom they screw us over everyday

[sonarus]

well its too late for that now. I honestly have no beef towards capcom but if they like they should feel free to offer up RE5 as an exclusive i would say that should just about make it up

[RJ2000]

Did i miss the memo? when did Capcom put it in my butt?

[ukilnme]

I truly don't see how some PS owners feel they were screwed just because Capcom put games on another system. I don't feel that Capcom screwed me at all. DMC4 is proof that they can make a good multiplatform game without "screwing" a particular system. Anyway, believe what you must to get you through the day and help you sleep at night.

PSWii60 FTW!!!

[kingme71]

I think alot of PS fans are upset with Capcom making Monster Hunter 3 a Wii game. I've never played an MH in the past, so I can't comment, but that seems to be the biggest beef with Capcom.

[Keowrath]

ukilnme, I'm one of the ones that feels disappointed in Capcom for moving a game to another platform. Not to any rediculous extent that I'd boycot them but I'm disappointed none the less. I was one of the Monster Hunter fans that was actually rooting for the game to go multi. The PS3 has enough good exclusives to tide it over and I was hoping more people would get to play this wonderfully addictive game by bringing it to the 360 too.

Instead, they canceled the game that could have introduced us to a High Definition Rathalos (one of the main creatures in the game) which I'm sure a lot of fans were looking forward to see. I imagine it'll use the Wii-mote well, hopefully allowing you to "act" differently with each of the weapons but if you've played the game, I can imagine this game exhausting it's audience with swinging your arms around so much!

A lot of fans think Capcom as usual took the quickest and easiest fast money making route, Which as a company who'd blame them but you and they have to realise that they're upsetting a lot of their fanbase.

[ukilnme]

I understand now since you mentioned Monster Hunter 3. No reason why that should not have been a multiplatform title as well.

[cloud360]

when i was about 7 i used to play a 2d street fighter with my uncles

i didnt really know wnat to do so i kept pressing any button really fast and kept button mashing. sometimes i was able to beat them!!!

Street Fighter Alpha EX on the ps1 was really good. there was a underwater guy who can use bombs. what was his name, he has blu cloth?

but now i am in a postition wer i am so ingormant and stubborn that every game sucks other than japanese rpg games and japanese games

[InMyOpinion]

I remember him as Mr.Explosif(with french pronounciation). He was one of my favourite characters, along with the dude who had the baseball bat.

[Playboy89]

Bomb guy: Doctrine Dark (D.Dark)
Baseball bat guy: Cracker Jack

[Rikitatsu]

Are you guys insane ?

[gamesblow]

SF 4... exclusive to PS3, huh? That's funny... That's really funny, actually. Since several dev's were scrambling behind the hotel doors to claw their way to Capcoms room where they had it set up to play for the xbox 360.

[mighty_douche]

I know your meant to be the "guy in the know" (although its self labelled) as far as i know i thought the ONLY playable or running versions were on the arcade.

Maybe you could provide a link please?

[cloud360]

"RESIDENT EVIL 5 PS3" EXLUSIVE please!!!

bring it back to the playstaion wer it started and was labeled as a ps game

[ISay]

they already showed it running on 360

[sonarus]

dude when did they show RE5 running on anything. As far as i know all that has been shown are trailer with bits and pieces of gameplay. I may be wrong. Not saying RE5 will become ps3 exclusive might even run better on 360 for all i know.

[NitrogenB]

Is SFIV exclusive to PS3?

[heyheyhey]

isn't supposed to be- this is a rumor

[ZuZubub]

See, it's in the end of the first paragraph of the story...

[NitrogenB]

Are you really that ignorant? I asked a question....how do you disagree w/ a question....get a life.

[kewlkat007]

this another hogwash...to add to the end of the week.

This site is boring right now...

Where is the bashing articles..that we see daily.

[bigjclassic]

himself, he wants SFIV on all platforms. including PS2/Wii and portibles. And if thats the case SFIV will sale tons of copies on the PS2 and Wii.

[The Killer]

if any game compete with MGS4 then this game will suffer a lot from sales!!

but any way i dont see street fighter 4 is trying to compete with MGS4 they r in different genres and have different audience!!

[heyheyhey]

the source is crap, and this rumor sounds like total bullsh!t

even more so the release date- didn't Capcom say that the console versions were only 50% finished or something? it might be more like 60% by now, bbut June is still way too soon- and going against MGS4 is just total suicide

i don't really care if it's exclusie or not, as long as there IS a PS3 version for me to play

seems like for every decent article we get five more rumors, blog posts, forum posts and biased articles being passed of as "news"

[pwnsause]

??? SFIV exclusive??, bullsh@t. maybe timed exclusive, but its not happening due to capcoms welcomness to multiplatform gaming. BTW this game was shown running on 360 hardware, BTW, not gonna happen, unless they Do an Epic Games Stituation, were even though the game was running on 360 hardware, it released on the PS3 first.

[Iamback]

No it has never been shown running on any console, only on dev kit. No one know for what console it is going to be.

My predictions is that looking at graphics, it is going to be for all 3 systems out there. There is no way that even a Wii cant handle those graphics. PS360Wii- i think

[pwnsause]

sorry then I'll take that back.

[LastDance]

calm down calm down. you would be a fool to think this games going to be Exclusive. i mean really.

[BubblesDAVERAGE]

In japan but worldwide i doubt it

[aceman7]

If you ask me 360 doesn't need this game cause it has Gears of War 2.

[RAF-TECH]

i love gears, I love my 360, I love Live.

BUT Fuc U.
I'm DEVOTED TO SF

[kingme71]

Maybe 3rd parties and MS should just cancel all 360 games to make room for Gears of War? I guess that makes sense :P

[killer_trap]

i remember street fighter 2 being a snes exclusive and it really helped the system beat the Genesis(mega drive). we're talking about one of the most recognizable series in gaming history right there with mario and sonic. so you can take all your caliburs and tekkens and virtua fighters and leave the holy street fighter alone.

if it's an exclusive then sony got the game that really matters from capcom because for people like me street fighter is a system seller beyond any doubt. actually i will be getting it for the ps3 anyways, as some of you folks stated the 360's controller isn't friendly with fighters.

[cloud360-13th_acount]

captain tsusbasa? why do you watch that... it sucks
watch death notethe worlds cleverist anime or one piece the japanese version

watch here it even has the best anime intro ever:

extremely fast loading (has all anime )- http://anime6.org/?p=40

[killer_trap]

oh man you made me swear like a drunken monkey.......perhaps the later seasons weren't that good but the first two were land marks in anime history.

why if you know your football you'd know that captin stubasa was one of the main reason japanese football became the best in asia(i'm not japanese).

and i'm not that big of an anime fan i just like the oldies like tsubasa , grendizer and conan of the future. the new ones are kinda confusing.

[cloud360-13th_acount]

What are you talking about now. i didnt even watch captain tsubasa and i called it crap. sorry for that part

but u say new anime ins confusing???

your confusing???

just keep queit stop making me confused and watch the worlds celeverist thing, Death Note

http://anime6.org/?p=40

giv it a chnace. dont watch crappy perveted naruto- thanks

[va_bank]

"i remember street fighter 2 being a snes exclusive and it really helped the system beat the Genesis"

No it wasn't. It WAS released for SNES as an exclusive but then Capcom totally stabbed Nintendo in the back by loopholing the contract and releasing "Campionship Edition" on Genesis. The Genesis version had 4 extra characters! That round in the console war went to SEGA. Also, Mortal Combat was censored on SNES, so I would say SF and MK helped SEGA to last as long as they did.

BTW, SNES's game that killed Genesis, was Donkey Kong.

[season007]

whatever, you think its good?
the first part is ok but second part sucks no matter what..............

[Lelouch V Brit]

mmmm, interesting...............

[fury]

playing SF IV with the 360 d-pad would really suck because of the unpredictable movements. I experienced this also with doa and virtua fighter on the 360. I needed an average of 3-5 attempts to get a special move working.
since special moves etc. are very very important for street fighter gameplay, I would prefer the PS3 version and its controller. the sixaxis/dualshock controllers have a far better d-pad.

[destroyah]

The 360 d-pad is absolutely HORRIBLE for fighting games.

[socomnick]

You know what the dpad does suck but I use the joystick for mk3 and once your used to it its fine. I bought a hori joystick for sf4 though.

[MailMan]

I wouldn't be surprised AT ALL if the 3FixMe version suffered from FRAME RATE issues,LOADING issues,and GRAPHIC issues,you know,in the SAME way Devil May Cry 4,Burnout Paradise,Elder Scrolls 4:Oblivion,Assassins Creed,Call Of Duty 4,and around TWENTY other Multiplat games,all play and look BETTER on the Playstation 3.

Xbots are FOREVER doomed to MEDIOCRITY,if only they would Jump OUT and Play B3YOND

[RAF-TECH]

Who the hell playes with D-pad?
honestly???

360 - controllers with the d-pad is way to sensitive and can't be accurate. Altough you may need to take a learning curve to master parries and low parries in SF3. The trigger layout isnt too pleasing as well... the top triggers and bumpers are in now way helping street fighter. The LB+RB buttons are too close and clearly not used for constant pressing.

PS3 - same thing... People think that PS3 d-pad is best for fighters? you gotta be kidding. Try playing street fighter alpha 3 on the damn thing. Motion moves is completely difficult due to the design of the D-pad. The D-pad is actually buttons. It becomes more of a hassle when playing SF3. Where motion QC, DP is extremely accurate. (only exception is MVC2....very easy to pull anything in that game)

The only way is the ARCADE WAY.
That's why their is Hori sticks for both consoles.
People who play on Controllers are considered scrubs in the EVO tourney that i have been to.

Arcade all the way.
PS3 users should get the Hori stick for this
360 users need to get the Hori stick for this.

C'mon guys.... It's STREET FIGHTER!!!!

[killer_trap]

i know nothing beats playing the game with a stick. but i don't think a lot of people do it. but you're right either way bubbles up.

[RAF-TECH]

another thing i want to point out is the massive numbers of X-box live users playing CvS2, ThirdStrike, GuiltyGear for many years already.

Because X-box supported online gaming for fighters at an early age, it is expected to have most of the elite players stay on the 360

but then again...
with the rise of PS3 and already dominating japan. damn... facing those Japs was B1tch on X-box live. So the PS3 will have difficult competition as well.

[madestar]

keep it ps3 exclusive and watch xb360 owners go buy ps3. sweet victory music.. ahh what a sound.. i love it!!! i absolutely love it!!!!!!!!!!!! plus the xb360's controller is just not for the game.. who wants to play a fighting game on a gay color controller anyways... and why the f is microsoft making more sku's???!!!!! no one isn't going to buy it!!!!! there's too many problems with it!!!!!! reconstruct it and then make more sku's!!!!!!!!!!!!!! microsoft just wants to jack people for their money.. what else is new.. and plus xb360 can't handle the graphics of sf4.. so good move capcom.. i love you guys

[BUKKAKALYPSE]

I'd buy a PS3 if SF4 was exclusive cuz its gonna be 10,000,000,000x better than anything else it has to offer. hell SF2 is better than anything PS3 has to offer

[sabbath420]

Rumor, Speculation, suggested...

[madestar]

not rumors.. truth

[tehReaper]

Who agreed with this guy? Haha. Horrible grammar.

[xionpunk]

Doubt it, if DMC went multi plat I don't think they'd let SF go exclusive on the ps3 which, for now, has a smaller user base.

[gambare]

Just 11 millions ;)

[TitanUp]

Capcom’s Seth Killian has come out and stated that Street Fighter 4, in development for the Sony PS3 and Xbox 360, is about 50% complete.

Killian stated that the game is completely playable as of right now.

The big thing for why they are only 50% complete is that they still have a lot of work to do on features they want to add into the game, as well as new stages and characters.

Street Fighter 4 is surely going to be one of the biggest releases of the year based off reports from early versions of the game.

He stated that "parts of the game are very polished while others are still being developed."

http://www.ps3center.net/st...

[TruthBTold]

Capcom has gone multi and not switching back. Man, some places really have nothing interesting to write about so whats next.... just make stuff up i guess. Man I should be a writer too, I could come up with tons of BS LOL

[Filanime03]

Exclusive or not I will buy street fighter IV in ps3. Feels more comfortable on fighting games especially street fighter. I use the D-pad alot. In my opinion ps3 has better D-pad than the 360.

[MajorgamerQc]

It's called Rumors: Fuel of journalism war

[TyrionEagle]

Please take the time to read the story not the N4G headline. SPOnG's headline is "RUMOUR BUST"

[TitanUp]

used to like d pad for fighting games but got used to mortal kobat joysticks

just kinda feels better using the joysticks

[zPlayer]

thats the biggest load of horse crap i've ever heard. even though i love street fighter and capcom i know that SF4 will at most be second to MGS4.

[RAF-TECH]

"LP, LP, F, LK, HP"

see if anyone can get it.
to see if there are atleast knowledgeable Steet Fighters

[Skerj]

Shun Goku Satsu

[acetw1n]

REFERS TO MORTAL KOMBAT SERIES

[Skerj]

Uh no it doesn't, it's Street Fighter super move. Gouki's to be exact, the Raging Demon/Shun Goku Satsu/Instant Hell Murder. Whoever it's performed on gets taken to hell and attacked by demons, if they were evil then their sins haunt them as well as the demons. He used it to kill Bison as well which is why Bison BETTER not show up in SF4.

[Keowrath]

Need a level 3 bar for it too. Wasn't available in Super streetfighter II Turbo (or X) to the player if they input the code to use Gouki but as Skerj said, Gouki does a number on Bison (or Vega) with it if you get to fight him.

The player got to use it for the first time during the Zero series if I recall correctly.

[princejb134]

idk its possible guys
if i remeber correctly haze was suppose to come out for xbox360 and ps3 and later on it became ps3 exclusive
i guess anything could be possible in the world of gamers

[Skerj]

Haze is going to be out for 360 few months after the PS3 version, count on that.

[RAF-TECH]

will come to 360....
this is my 'theory'

they only masked it as PS3 exclusive to atleast have some sort of shine to it.... because it was supposed to come at around Halo3...
now that Halo3 is being beat by COD4... These Devs are surely gonna put it back to muliplat.

RB6 V2......can't wait!

[madestar]

a worm has more tought to offer than you do

[BUKKAKALYPSE]

that was a siiiick burn man..

"plus the xb360's controller is just not for the game.. "
-I agree with this one..the 360 controller d-pad sux BUT other than that it is leaps and bounds better that the PS controller designed in f*cking 1990!

"who wants to play a fighting game on a gay color controller anyways"
-do you look down at the controller while you play??look at the colors of the shapes on your controller idiot!

"and plus xb360 can't handle the graphics of sf4"
you're a tard. If it was multiplatform it would be better on the 360 (like every single other multiplatform game out there) minus the controller issue..the graphics are not the best yet dude. COD4 has better visuals and the 360 has no problems with that.

Get PWNED!

[sak500]

What is "tought" ? Smart@ss

[madestar]

sak500..
how dumb are you not to notice a typo???

[sak500]

@mad

Your the idiot for missing out the typo not me.

[BigKev45]

This is bulls**t, no way is this true.

[cloud360-13th_acount]

watch this it will make u feel happy (dont ever watch naruto the japanese version 15+)

death note:

http://anime6.org/?p=40

am really angry about how people lie and say Naruto is the best. Naruto and Bleahc have porn in them but i dot know about the english version so dont watch it

[TheMART]

Rumours rumours

why are PS3 rumours always false??? We can better call them: lies instead of rumours

[You bought an Xbox]

We might as well call you a Dumb c0ckring wearing Xbot instead of themart

[DarkSniper]

Speaking of lies, questions and rumors TheMART at XBOX Kings do you remember this one?

http://www.n4g.com/NewsCom-...

[quote]'t I tell you so Sony fanboys. MGS4 will come to the 360.

11 million 360 users that bought already between 4 to 5 million copies of Gears of War, won't be denied by Konami. They just can't compared to just over 3 million PS3 owners that bought only 600k of the best selling PS3 game: Resistance.

Shane Bettenhausen went to Konami. He can't give exact details, because otherwise Konami would never invite him again, but he got the indications that the 360 version will be here 6 months after the PS3 version.

Learn to live with it. It's coming, like it or not [/quote]

Once again, Dark Sniper proves with undeniable facts that TheMART at XBOX Kings contradicts his own statements to coincide with anything that is deemed derogatory at PLAYSTATION® 3. Metal Gear Solid 4 was and still is a PS3 exclusive. But with the evidence Dark Sniper has displayed upon all of you, it's easy to see that any and everything that has came out of the delusional mind of TheMART at XboxKings has a contradictory statement which makes him the biggest joke of N4G.com history.

If you need lies and rumors, TheMART At XBOXkings can provide you a plethora of those. Dark Sniper has the proof and will expose it to the Sony Snipers reading worldwide.

The clock is ticking. PLAYSTATION® 3 awaits you.

$niper

[acetw1n]

it hasn't even hit arcades yet , i woundnt even expect it to drop until late this year at the earliest, besides i think by the looks of it ,it will be a downdloadable title anyway

[cloud360-13th_acount]

i watched 1 episode of afro samurai, its too dark and it sucks

watch better anime go here. all anime here loads really fast

death note (extremely smart, please giv it a chance)

http://anime6.org/?p=40

[resistance100]

Maybe Ps3 exclusive in Japan, but the rest of the world i suspect it will be muiltplat

[BloodySinner]

Nonsense.

[Meus Renaissance]

Same day as MGS4? That's one way to kill the sales of your game. They should release it the same date Gears get launched aswell

[TitanUp]

raf tech. akuma raging demon on street fighter alpha 3 playstation has to be that one cause just got done playing the game about 30 mins ago.

im going to play mortal kombat trilogy ps here in a few mins but back on subject i dont think this will be ps3 exclusive

[mighty_douche]

Id imagine we'll get a Official Statement from Capcom soon enough so ill just wait it out.

But honestly.... exclusive? pfft...

[TitanUp]

cloud what you doing advertising for anime6.org or something if anyone knows anime then they should already know thats a good place to watch it.

[cloud360-13th_acount]

am not advertsing . anime is really popular now. even ign have an anime section and gametrailers added one recently

so people will end up watchign anime at one point. the first u watch is the one you always love a lot

all am doing is stopping the first being Naruto

[acetw1n]

It just happens to make a better avatar than an anime,
also i love death note ("L" & THE SHIMIGAMIES),but there's a shortage of black people on the show .

[cloud360-13th_acount]

funny hahahaha
haha

yeh remeber guys dont watch naruto its for perverts

[TitanUp]

at one point haze was just timed exclusive for ps3 but they haven't really said anything else about that for a while just wait and see

[PimpHandHappy]

dont you know

the first to be killed off on any show is the black guy

lol JK

I liked Afro and i own almost everything from WuTang and RZA

Ninja Scrool is still hard to top in my book

[cloud360-13th_acount]

I wonder when N4G will add an anime section

[acetw1n]

is another good one

apple seed and kara also

[TitanUp]

what you talking about? naruto is like one of the best anime to watch these days

and theres no porn in naruto through any of the japanese episodes or dubbed english versions.

and who in the world doesn't know about death note?

[cloud360-7th_account]

Naurto is extremely perveted anime. a big part of the anime is pevertion. Kakashi spied on girls and that other elite teacher looks at girl having a bath

and Bleach has the most amount of nudity. rmember when that black lady enters the hot spring naked with ichigo

that lady is naked like 50% of the times

and all the girls have large breats????

i mean come on. its like 50X bigger than any other anime girls

[TitanUp]

anime section in the forums

[Mikelarry]

very funny whoever came up with this. capcom has already made it clear they are about making profit, exclusive talk is not in capcoms book

[HarryEtTubMan]

PS3 is getting Lost Planet, Eternal Sonata, Overlord, Mass Effect and Bioshock series now that they are bought out, Postal 3, there is more I can't remember. 360 has no good games coming now except Gears 2.

PS3 = 2 Rockstar Exclusives, Blu Ray, Wifi, 2008/2009 Exclusives list(sooo many which havent even been seen including Killzone 2 that are gonna absolutely PWN the competition... o wait.... they already are owning Microsft.... well they are gonna relaly start pounding 'em soon!0

Microsft = RROD, Halo wars(hahahahhahahahah), Ninja Gaiden 2 (the first one's on PS3 and its just a rental hahahahahahah) and Fable 2 (hahahahahahahahhahahha) and Gears 2.

PS3 HAS SOOOOOOOOOOOOO MANY BETTER GAMES COMING WITHOUT Street Fighter LMAO.

BOTS..... YOU WILL BE PWNED. THE PWNAGE WILL NEVER STOP.

[shotputking]

this makes a lot of sense... capcom is known for only making single platform exclusives... so they would probably choose the console with the fewest sales to launch the revival of a mega franchise. good work france.

[sephiroths_revenge]

Am happy with Tekken 6 but i will be happy even more with SF4 exlusive on the ps3

[Bill Gates]

Sorry BABOONS...HAHAHHAHAHAAAHHAH

But your Shietbox sucks brown juice from my butt hole.....AHHAHAHHA

I hope you die a slow death^^^

[You bought an Xbox]

This warped little xbot showing the world that he's mighty pissed that his mom and dad's to cheap to buy him a PS3 !!
Listen up you little gobby snot nosed punk leave your trash talk for the game lobby on halo 3 cause you and a million other 12 year olds think it cool. So get you scruffy degenerate ass back there ok kid
And i'll tell you once more kids like you should only speak when spoken too ok !!
And the fact that no one wants to speak to you means that you got no need to be here so i'll try to be polite @*&$ OFF

[SMK056]

If this game (SF4) is a PS3-exclusive I well be a beg stool

[Salta_nelas]

Obviously BS. No way Capcom would give PS3 an exclusive game, they are a MP gaming company now.

Too bad tought, it would be cool to see it altough i just need my Tekken.

[Keowrath]

I don't believe this for an instant but the thing that gets me the most is the date. For one, WHY would Streetfighter try to compete with MGS especially when it appears MGS is being released in most (if not all) territories on a day that isn't a usual release day.

[Bill Gates]

I wonder if Sony made a deal with Capcom to make DMC4 a multi-platform game, but in return to get SF4 exclusively......NICE DEAL SONY.......Sorry BABOONS.....AHAHAHHHAHA

[Palodios]

I completely understand the perspective that Capcom wants to make more money, but they're starting to seem very unreasonable about it.
Let's look at what they've done:

1. canceled the Dead Rising ps3 port, but for some reason made a Lost Planet port, which is far less likely to sell, with a ridiculous 20 minute/ 5 gig installation for a year old game.
2. Cut two years of Monster Hunter PS3 development and moved it to the Wii
3. They put DMC 4 on the 360, and not only gave the 360 the better versions, but completely cut out Sixaxis support.

Its not that big a list really. Problem is Capcom is just a big sellout in general. How many times have we seen street fighter and megaman remade, and remade badly? They turned on Nintendo's Gamecube as soon as sales slowed down, and they did the same for the ps3. RE 0 and RE 5 gamecube to wii ports? If the ps3 does start to gain momentum, expect Capcom to get right back on that train. Or maybe they know this year will be big for the ps3, so they're getting a headstart, who knows?

[ukilnme]

1. Was Dead Rising ever coming to PS3?
2. Agree. Should have at least made it multiplatform.
3. This is subjective. Never played DMC before the DMC4 demo. I played both versions and felt more comfortable playing it on the PS3 controller. I am going with the PS3 version.

[Palodios]

I think my heading may have made my point unclear: Capcom will do whatever the heck they want for a profit. I gave multiple examples of this and can think of multiple more. Remember Clover?

But anyway, I could of sworn Capcom canceled the DR port didn't they? Why make a LP port and not a DR one? It just seems like it doesn't make sense.

... for ps3 owners because not only did Monster Hunter get removed from the Ps3 completely but they also lost an exclusive to 360... Now losing the exclusive is not the bad part... the bad part is that the game they got in return (a 360 exclusive) was a crappy port of a game no1 cares about... they could of at least of gave Ps3 owners dead rising... o well the ps2 fans wasnt moaning when RE4 moved to ps2 when it was supposed to be GC exclusive so i guess its karma lol

[Aquanox]

Devil May Cry, a CAPCOM flagship title which has been exclusive to the Playstation 3 since it was created was ported to the Xbox 360, a version of the game which Worldwide sales surpassed those of the Playstation 3.

There is no logical reason to think CAPCOM would even be considering an Street Fighter IV exclusive to any console, let alone the one that gives them the less profit.

[Jamegohanssj5]

It's a typo; however, Street Fighter IV will suck big time if you ask me. It's just something about it that makes me turn away from it.

The Genius has spoken.

[ukilnme]

I lost a bubble for not feeling like I was screwed over by Capcom. As it turns out I was screwed by N4G Sony Fanboys.

[Keowrath]

I didn't hit either + nor - for you mate. I thought we were having a decent conversation. Anyway, seeing as I do have the choice, have a +

[ukilnme]

Thanks man. I try not to care too much about bubbles but it makes for easier replies. I hope I never have to make multiple edits in one comment like some that have only one bubble. Bubble back at you too.

Edit: Awwwwwwwww crap. I reached my limit.

[khellendros1]

First reason I think so is that the arcade is dead in the US. There really is no point in bringing it out in the arcade over here. Second, the 360 doesn't have that strong a base in Japan where SF is still huge. Still, I think this is the less likely of the two. If it does happen then it will be a timed exclusive.

[GametimeUK]

I never take bubbles from people and fanboys taking bubbles for a honest opinion sucks... fair enough if they took them for you bashing a console like an immature 12 year old kid... but since you didnt il give you a bubble my friend

[ukilnme]

Thanks man. I bubbled you back for being mature. I honestly think we have more adults on this site acting like 12 year old kids than actual 12 year old kids.

[Coffin87]

to this headline: WHO CARES???

[OsolidOsnakeO]

i hoped that MGS4 will be the only game to be released in that day for the PS3...cause they want 1m$ solid copies of the game in the first day......ABOUT ME, NOTHING ELSE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN SOLID SNAKE.

[ta1snake]

I really don't trust Capcom.

[cmrbe]

I highly doubt that SF is exclusive and 12th of June?. They can try but i tell you. SF will be molested by Snake. It would be the stupidest move by Capcom if indeed its true.

[stuntman_mike]

i very much doubt this is a ps3 exclusive especially with the lame ports of thier games on ps3.

and to launch at the same time as mgs4 is not a clever move.

[REPLOID24]

a grain of salt, boys. IF this title does happen to be exclusive, it would be a huge win for PS3. But this goes against Capcom's new multi-platform philosophy. Plausibility 1/5:D

[Kaz Hirai]

It's nothing but good news for us these days!
We feel sorry for the IGNORANT CHIMPS who made the mistake of their "lives" by buying the Xbox 360.
In fact we laugh at them:

MWAH-HA-HA-HA!!!

[belal]

at capcom. if they really belive that street fighters IV can take on MGS4 then they are terribly wrong indeed!!!!!!

EDIT

@OsolidOsnakeO

they dont need to sell 1 mill copies at day one. payton said that in his podcast a while ago.

[cokzilla23]

there is no way this is a ps3 exclusive, SF is too big! honestly i really dont care if it is a ps3 exclusive or not. Now, if this rumor does hold true then that would just be icing on the cake. the ps3 would unarguably have 08 in its back pocket. what im more excited about is that its sounding like SF 4 is hitting home consoles sooner than i had anticipated. i just hope they haven't changed the playing mechanics too drastically.

[sleepbox]

Why would any dev make a game PS3 exclusive at this point? PS3 owners buy movies not games.

[ISA_Scum]

Uncharted, COD4, Motorstorm, Resistance all say you lose with that comment. If you've been paying attention, the difference in sales is basically the install base ratio that exists between the 360 and PS3. Sony fans buy games and as the PS3 closes the hardware gap, the software gap will obviously close with it.

[ISA_Scum]

Capcom show love to the PS3? PLLLLLEEEEAAAAASSSSSEEEEEE....

They give us a crap port of Lost Planet, no Dead Rising, deny the PS3 an exclusive in DMC4, you think they'd make SFIV a PS3 exclusive? Yeah right....

Here's a reality check for ya, SFIV is no PS3 exclusive. Sorry to burst your bubble, this is just random BS for buzz. MGS4 IS a PS3 exclusive and I can't wait to play it.

Wanna know the reality of a potential SFIV vs MGS4 release feud? SF will sell like hotcakes on the 360 while MGS4 will obliterate SF on the PS3. Capcom will point out the significant difference in sales and go XBOX exclusive. The way they've been to the PS3 thus far, I wouldn't put it past them.

Just my take.

[CRIMS0N_W0LF]

Capcom is going downhill. DMC4 sucked arse due to DVD9 space (Super recyled levels to avoid storage) and GoW 1 looks more grpahical then DMC4.

[electric vortex]

I'm playing DMC4 right now and I think it's good. It's kind of unfair to see people bashing the game like that. I don't know whether it's Nero or the fact that Dante isn't exactly the main hero.

[NaAsAr]

i personally prefer the 360 controller vs the sixaxis for street fighter games. i play mugen all the time on my pc with the 360 controller and have no issues with dashing or upper-cutting.

[gambare]

That could be a Bomb but.... it's just a rumor.

[sonyfanonly]

as long as it comes to the ps3 i could care less SF-4 is gonna kick some a$$

[sumfood4u]

They should worked on SFEX~4 an bring my Boi Skull~o~Mania to Pawn $hit!

[ThaGeNeCySt]

how can something be exclusive if it's found on another platform?

or do we only question that when it's an xbox360 and PC game

[Palodios]

Most people don't like spending two grand on arcade machines to put in their bedrooms.

[Bastard 360]

So overated, infact the game is sh!te, repeat sh!te, but on the other hand many people love the game, inparticular Xbots and the only place to play the game is PSKing3

[GETPWNED]

Capcom creating a PS3rd exclusive??? HAHAHahaHAHALOLOOOL no.

[360_Rules]

The 360 is where the money is at PS3 fools.

[leon76]

...I just want to play SF4 and MGS4 in my PS3!!!....

[moujahed]

Only way they'll clash on June 12th, is when the cashier @ Gamestop puts them into the same bag.

[LJWooly]

Yeah, I don't think so...

[Genki]

In this day and age, most good titles take well over a year, sometimes two or three, to complete.

According to the man responsible for the game, this title was 5% complete just two month ago. Now I'm hearing 50%. That's outrageous. No wonder they can't achieve what was depicted in the trailer, they're not even giving themselves a chance.

[electric vortex]

I think this is just a rumor. I don't think they're even done with the game yet so how could they release the game on consoles already? That's way too quick and 'm sure this was confirmed as being for the 360 as well. Whoever wrote that article ought to rethink their words.

by Martin Robinson, IGN UK
UK, February 27, 2008 - Yoshinori Ono, producer of Capcom's Street Fighter IV, has spoken out about the potential home ports that could follow later this year in an interview with GameLife.

Reaffirming our belief that Street Fighter really is the thinking man's chess, Ono compares the game's mechanics to the age-old discipline, saying, "You could have a gold-inlaid board, knights with diamonds in their eyes. Or you could just draw a grid on a piece of paper and use cheap plastic pieces. And you're having the same amount of fun."

"Street Fighter IV, as it stands now, would be well-suited for the higher-level platforms. But the game doesn't have to have these visuals in order to be fun. We could go, potentially, to the Wii. We could make it on Game Boy, for all we know right now. As long as the rules are the same, that can be independent of the visuals. So we're not going to be limited by any hardware specs; we're going to aim as wide as possible."

So Street Fighter IV might come to the Game Boy? While Ono's comments merely allude to the potential of the game to translate to multiple consoles, a Wii version would certainly be warmly welcomed by a legion of Street Fighter fans. As of yet no details of a home-bound Street Fighter IV have been announced and Capcom Europe wouldn't be drawn to comment on how ubiquitous any possible console ports would be.

[bigjclassic]

for the negative bubbles on my first post.
If SFIV went to all consoles it well sale the best on PS2 and the Wii.
*biggest install base*

[supremacy]

c'mon guys lets be serious here its capcom were talking about, this company throw out the course of the years have shown me that they really don't associate much with sony.

lets take a small history tour for sec.

anyone remember the dreamcast days? they capcom used to make all their best games at the time on segas machine all because it was cheaper to produce for and easier to deal with, i mean marvel vs capcom didn't hit the playstation almost 2 years later, project justice the sequel to one of the premiere playstation one fighters was a dreamcast exclusive, powerstone? code veronica which later came to the ps2 after it was known the dreamcast was dying cuz i guess it was thinking too much.lol just kidding but you get my point.

than what was a reject project of resident evil 4 became known as devil may cry what did they do? they said oh well lets put it on the ps2 and see what happens, but after they finally got RE4 out and working they decided to make it a gamecube exclusive, it was until their playstation fan base got angry and demanded a port of the game to their ps2. in fact i can still remember when the RE4 dev said he would cut off his head if RE went to another platform other than the gamecube, well i just hope he still got its head attach to its body.lol jk.

but seriously capcom has never really been a sony lover thats for sure, they gave us onimusha but even the xbox got a port, so it just shows that capcom don't really cater sony all that much i mean street fighter ex isn't exactly a system seller in my book.

and now as it stands all of their ps2 hits as a result of lazyness and quick cash cow schemes they are porting all of their ps2 top sellers to the wii, i mean capcom has become like sega very cheap and un attractive. i mean resident evil 4 while a former gamecube game sold better numbers on the ps2 and was even consider a bad port in some cases, but this shows the size of market the ps2 had. and now thats a wii title? okami? whats next these people are just using the wii to really avoid taking the big hits companies like take 2 take annually, otherwise they too would be on the sale block. the only thing saving them right now is resident evil and maybe devil may cry and lost planet, but other than that capcom has only been profitable on all the cheaper systems.

look at devil may cry 4 what was suppose to be a playstation mark, its now tinted, heck that still gets to me. so yeah as this goes i don't see street fighter 4 stay exclusive to any system. i on the other hand expect street fighter 4 to be multi-platform and who knows if things keep going the way they are than i expect the 360 to get the better version. capcom in my view is just lazy really, they are becoming just like EA themselves if you ask me.
