Spark Comic #13 - E3 2011 Predictions: CapcomLike everyone else, I've been trying to predict the madness that could possibly occur at E3 this week and came up with something Capcom would do.
This is sort of a continuation from the description of my last comic (read the description of Spark Comic 12). I love Capcom, but goddamn do they keep needlessly refining their games. How many times are they going to re-release the SAME GAME. You can't blame companies like Nintendo for something like that because at least they give their re-releases meaningful updates most of the time or are old games that were previously long out of print. Capcom just keeps releasing a more "defined" version of EVERY Street Fighter and just adds SOME sort of adjective to it and it honestly feels like they're REALLY trolling us everytime. Now I will admit, Super Street Fighter IV was a pretty big update to the original game, but now you have 3D Edition, which was supposed to be the most refined version ever they said, and then this week the Arcade Edition comes out, which is most certainly the defined Street Fighter IV experience, "according to them." I like Street Fighter, but seriously, stop asking people to buy the same game with a minor add-on I could do without and release another installment. Heck, SoulCalibur's on it's fifth game and it's been around less than half the time Street Fighter has.
Enough of me bitching about that. I watched E3 live on Monday (this comic was finished at that point) and saw the conferences of Microsoft, Sony, and half of Ubisoft. They were all pretty bad...
Microsoft: "Get a Kinect! Get a Kinect! Get a Kinect! WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T WANT TO?!!!!!!"
Ubisoft: "HI EVERYBODY, I'M SUPER HYPER! LOOK ASSASSIN'S CREED! YEEEHAAAWW!"
Sony: "We got the Playstation Move, 3D crap, AND the PSVita, with touchscreens and augmented reality! You love that shit, right?! We're the most original company EVER!"
Sony's conference was the best of the day, but that's not saying much. They started off well... Then they started shoving the mentioned above items down my throat and it went down hill from there...
Can't wait until Nintendo's conference today!
Street Fighter IV and Capcom Logos are all owned by Capcom
The full name of game here is:
Super Duper Awesome Amazing Alpha Omega Beta Gamma Turbo Strike Marvel Capcom Galactic Rainbow Sparktacular Mighty Morphin' Pawnch Ultimate Troll Gang Raving Goofy Goober Elite Smash Nyan Oil Teenage Mutant Lego STREET FIGHTER IV - 3D Arcade OMGEEBUS Superstar Kamehamehadoken Edition!
P.S. At E3, Capcom announced Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike HD Online Edition AND Street Fighter IV: Volt... FUCKING CALLED IT!!!! I WAS RIGHT! I KNEW IT!

If they wanted to make the best fighting game possible, why didn't they just work on the original a little more, release it, and then be done with it?!
I'm looking at you, Street Fighter II!

"2 new random characters"... sounds more like Arc... the same goes for the overly long title

I think the Kamehamehadoken part is my favorite
But then that might just be because I'm a huge DB fan.

Oh yeah, you're right...
Then again, I'm sure the HD Remix version of this game is announced a week or so after this one. XD

You know what? We wouldn't have it any other way. The whole thing is just to see how small Capcom's lettering department can sell the word!

Third Strike Online was in the works for a while. Not to mention that Third Strike isn't even out on major consoles yet. So... It's not trolling.

This is really an argument against EVERY Street Fighter game. How many revisions have we gotten for Street Fighter II and III already? More than I can count. There all planned. Whether it's in the works or not, I honestly don't see how Capcom's justified to make so many full price revisions of the SAME game, unless it's like MvC2 where they just port the game for online's sake.

JKReyner In reply to SuperSparkplug [2011-06-08 05:35:10 +0000 UTC]
You have to consider that Street Fighter wasn't meant for consoles. The revisions of 2 and 3 (there were only 3 versions of III) were just add-ons in arcades that were the same price.
Besides, that's just what Capcom does. Everyone complains about it, but nobody boycotts the updated games. That would definitely get them to stop doing it. Anyway, that's just my two cents.

I still call it trolling.
Also, Capcom announced Street Fighter IV: Volt... I WAS F***ING RIGHT!!!!!!!!

Volt is just a iPhone game. So it's not a new edition.

Street Fighter IV was ALREADY on the iPhone, so yes, Volt IS a New edition.

The only people who care about that are the ones who buy every new edition, for me all Street Fighter games are OK.

I was watching G4's coverage of Ubisoft's conference and they fail at censoring. Many F-bombs went under the radar and random bleeping hilarity was had
