Copy Clerk  Posts: 74 Joined: 19 May 2008    | I like how they actually included a spamming Sagat in the trailer. Good representation of the game's online play. |

I believe you left out Hyper, EX, Remix and HD. At some point we'll probably get an Overcharged SF game. I remember those minigames. The car one was never that hard for me, but that's because I usually used Chu Li, so it was just mashing the kick buttons. |

Me too, brother. Me too. *wistful sigh* |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 4195 Joined: 30 Oct 2008  | Right, like Ryu wouldn't just Hadouken the fuck out of the police officers. Fnar fnar.
Let's remember that he manages to grab the fat dude (forgot his name), leap twelve feet into the air, and smash his face into the ground. And fatty doesn't suffer a cerebral edema. The game is not realistic. |

I wasn't saying he can't do it, i was asking how he would do it. I'm already planning to buy the game, but the ability to piledrive cars would make me go after it the first day. and i reminded you of his name. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2571 Joined: 28 May 2009    | Yup, there's nothing like beating up a car with Ryu. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1021 Joined: 20 May 2009  | It's easy with E-Honda. |
Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 509 Joined: 5 Mar 2008   | Yeah, E. Honda beats up A Toyota. |

....That was awesome |
Anonymous Source  Posts: 1 Joined: 7 Nov 2009   | I missed the beating up of the cars, it was always my favorite part of the entire game -- and I'm a little surprised there is a person that actually tried it in real life. ... The question is if you saw the guy tearing apart your car bare handed, would you try to stop him? |

Don't remember SFII, SFII: Turbo Edition, and Super SFII? They just added on 4 new characters and a couple gameplay modes. They're just reminding us of yesteryear when they used to gouge us all. |

Muckraker  Posts: 280 Joined: 29 Jan 2009   | Why the fuck hasn't anybody sat down capcom and told them that we're in the "DLC era" now. |
Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 567 Joined: 29 Jan 2009    | Yeah. Vandalizing cars = <3. I miss this from SFII. Makes me smile. Silly that it's a new game but, it's the business mentality. Why DLC it for like $20 when you can just make a whole other game for $60? I'll probly get it anyway. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1265 Joined: 11 Jan 2008 | Great. Now when someone's car gets trashed here in England the Daily Mail have an excuse to blame it on videogames again. |

Maybe there should be a game of trashing the daily mail's editor's car :) |

To be honest that's something I'd much rather do in real life :D |
Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 629 Joined: 22 May 2009 | I nice throw-back, mind you I never liked the car stage or barrel stage. I think that makes me inhuman for not caring about them. Also I'm starting to see a reapeat of history with them releasing so many different version of SF2, they're doing it again! This sort of stuff should be DLC! Releasing more than one version worked in SNES days due to patches and DLC not existing, but they do know and ignoring them is a sure-fire way to piss people off. |
Muckraker  Posts: 241 Joined: 7 Apr 2009   | That's nice I guess but to tell the truth I couldn't care less about this game. We're in the age of DLC now. Capcom just can't get away with this anymore. |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 1597 Joined: 28 Nov 2007 | Hmmm, well maybe the Car Smashing stage will come with a hidden Michael Jackson character. Though admittedly he can't smash a car quite as well as the Street Fighter guys, but I figure it could be exagerrated more than the video. :) |

Paperboy  Posts: 16 Joined: 28 Sep 2009 | So I guess I'm the only one who actually DISLIKES this comeback *hides under the table* It's just that I always saw those minigames as unchallenging ( you always could break the car / bricks / whatever), time-consuming (once, it's okay, but replaying the game on arcade mode to brush-up your skills 246 times makes those a real time-waster) and just plain silly. I mean, those bonus stages where kind of a bad idea all the games would have back in the 80's, it's not like if the developers really had a new idea, they just followed the trend. They didn't even try to fit it in the game story ("now our challeger will have to break a car, or else...") Sorry to be such a spoiler... |

Oddly enough I remember the makes saying they wouldn't go down that road, but apparently it looks like they will... |

Car Smashing Returns in Super Street Fighter IV
The glory and fame that come from being the most powerful fighter in the world are nice, but there's nothing quite like beating up a car.
Famitsu scans and a new trailer for Super Street Fighter IV have confirmed the re-inclusion of bonus stages into the series. More specifically, the classic car and barrel smashing bonus stages from the original Street Fighter II.
Smashing cars and barrels were not the only things street fighters used to do in their spare time; they also hated piles of bricks, flaming oil drums, and plates of glass if I remember correctly. These acts seem so unnecessary, but if I could shoot flames out of my hands I probably wouldn't ever stop attacking cars.
The greatest example of a car smashing bonus stage actually comes from Final Fight, where Capcom brought a little reality into the situation by having a thug walk in after the car is destroyed that says "Oh, my car" as his tears fall down onto the concrete. I've never felt so bad and so good at the same time. The new Super Street Fighter IV mode doesn't appear to have anything happen that is quite as classic, but this trailer does show a man taking photographs of Ryu after he has finished his vandalism, most likely to be used to blackmail Ryu lest he send the photos to the police.
Other modes now revealed to be in Super Street Fighter IV are team battle, endless battle, a replay channel, and probably some other stuff that doesn't compare in the least to killing a car with your bare fists. Now, if we can just get something on par with a plane destruction bonus stage in Super Street Fighter IV Turbo: Championship Edition.
