This one should come out already.

Sadly, its a PS3/4 release.....
Sol's longtime rival. He has grown since the previous games and is now King of a place called Illyuria. He sports a new sword and 3D versions of his attacks. It is later revealed in the game that Fuuraiken is being used to help keep Ky's love (a gear) alive as she is disappearing from existence.
If it takes place after Overture 2, then Dizzy won't be apart from it. I am hoping for a DLC release for her.
 
I wonder if there's any chance Ultra will also see a release on PS4/XB1. If so, I'd save up for the PS4, get SF and GG for PS4 in your case. So we can finally play each other!
 
Early 2014, I am assuming Feb, 2014. 15 dollars or 40 dollars for the hard copy. If PS3 controller is working on the PS4, I will be getting one.

It is the opposite, PS4 controller works on PS3, but PS3 controller does not work on PS4.
 
All signs point to Street Fighter 5, but Ono has trolled before.
Blanka-Troll or Ono-face or Chun-troll? Has TGS passed? If any new news that will come either in the Finals of Capcom's first World Tournament or randomly as a leak?
 
I do not think so. USFIV will be release next year, and this teaser is too much 'retro style'.
Maybe it is a SFII HD or a free 2 play for PS4?

I'll link you to an article and a few tweets explaining why that SFV could be more than a possibility. On October 24th, Ono took to Twitter asking for game designers and programmers for their Tokyo or Osaka studios:

Ono
I want.... no, Capcom wants Game Designer and programer for New Fighting Game. Its location at Tokyo or Osaka Studio.

He later went on to say that he didn't know what would be the target platform of the new fighter:

I don't know that our target platform. ;P We're keep on going for FG.

Finally, he tweeted about it's developmental status:

Hahaha~ we're making preparation for development in just now.

Source Article.

Another reason why another SF2 HDR is impossible is because of the fact that the original HDR would more than likely be made available in one form or another in next gen anyways (if you get the PS4, you would stream it through Genkai as would all other PS3 games)

Blanka-Troll or Ono-face or Chun-troll? Has TGS passed? If any new news that will come either in the Finals of Capcom's first World Tournament or randomly as a leak?

Like Spektru said, USFIV will come out next year, however, I don't rule out another fighter from Capcom in late 2014-2015. I am reasonably upset that Capcom is nickle and diming us on DLC, and I think that the message has finally gotten across to Ono that many casual fans don't give a turd about the game anymore and want something fresh. That may be why he is asking for a game designer.
 
I am one of those that want something fresh aside from USFIV. (I would like to take the time to learn SG and probably Though I thought it was the same situation when they came out with various versions of SFIV. Though could this lead towards the plateau for the FGC? I think it was the same when they tried going 3D plane with the EX series then went back to a 2d with the Alpha series ending with Third strike. But how much can they surprise us with without changing "Street Fighter"? I would never rule out what Trapcom can do with new releases.

Here is the problem though, Ono already promised us that Street Fighter 5 would continue the story line. It may be entirely possible that requesting a game designer and programmer and not just a programmer, might mean a push to continue the Street Fighter story from Third Strike, instead of a simple port of USFIV.

Remember what the article said," They want someone with a strong passion for the genre and understanding like they do." or some sorts of that. Could it actually be Combofiend helping or Keits?
 
Possibly, but ultimately that falls under the supervision of the Battle Director, Taisaku Okada. It would all boil down to who they hire before any reasonable conclusions can be drawn.
 
I've trying to play TTT2 online and keeps getting "you have been removed from the session" message when I enter a lobby (match-making doesn't seem to work for me). Why? :indiff:
 
gee... Namco sure love their new 'Free to play a little bit, then wait an hour before we let you play more' model don't they? It worked for them in Tekken Revolution, and now they'll whack it into Ace Combat and SoulCalibur. If Ridge Racer isn't already completely dead for the 5th time, then you'll probably see that happen too.

Namco already has planned something for Soul Calibur " Lost Swords" and Ace Combat's "Infinity". It isn't too bad of a idea to keep feeding the fanbase. Still waiting on the TxSF news :lol:

Yeah, I had heard about both of those, that's why I posted, I suppose it's alright because, after all, it is free, but waiting for Tokens only to spend them fighting Devil Kazuya spammers got a bit old after a while. Waiting for fuel in Ace Combat infinity sounds... not so great, but if the game is lots of fun in short doses then why not. Now they're doing it for Soul Calibur... well I suppose it will introduce new players to the series, but I'm weary of Namco's ideas of F2P, I haven't tried DOA5U: Core Fighters yet (because I buy DOA games on disc) but I hear it handles F2P fighting much better than TR did (no waiting for coins, buy characters, upgrade to full game etc.)

F2P works better for FG's because people like playing their main character from sort of the series till they want to try another. For example, in AE. My mains are Balrog, Ryu, and Chun, everytime I play HDR, CVS2, or Alpha series. I choose them knowing their strengths and weaknesses in a match up. I stuck with Noel in Blazblue since CT and Astaroth since SCII.

More than likely that you were booted from the room by the server host. Nothing major, but sometimes clowns that host the servers would kick you for no apparent reason. It might be as simple as they want to keep the server private, but didn't know how, to as ****** as who is your mains. Pretty simple stuff once you think and figure it out.
