I can't believe they are actually making this...
They've already made two remakes of SFIV, and this is the third remake!
Our new characters are:
Decapre
She was a background character, and assister to R.Mika In Street Fighter Alpha 3
Elena
A fan favourite that was in Street Fighter III, and shocking wasn't in the first remake of SFIV.
Rolento
He was a popular character in Street Fighter Alpha 2
Hugo
The pimp from Final Fight, another CAPCOM game.
Poison
The very first transvestite video game character, coming from Final Fight as a prostitute. She originally was a female character, though the game said having a female villain would cause domestic abuse issues and whatnot. So she ultimately became a male character, who of course is a transvestite.
----------------------------------------------
I love the characters they chose, but was it really necessary to remake this game for a third time?
Street Fighter IV (2008)
Super Street Fighter IV (2010)
Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition (2011)
and now... Ultra Street Fighter IV (2014)
They should have just made Street Fighter V, I will most likely get this game to try out the 5 new characters when it goes to bargain bins as I am a fan of the series. The only differences of each game are a few additional characters in each one.
Are you going to get it? What do you think of the new characters?
Something told me to just wait until it runs it's course to buy whatever they're releasing. Glad I did it that way because
