Street Fighter IV

[Lionx]

At first i was like...meh and looked forward to KoFXII and SF:HD along with all the other fighting games that are making a resurgence lately, but as i watched the matches and the trailers...i cannot be more excited.

YouTube - Street Fighter 4 PV

Getting this for PC, this is definitely to me a fusion of just about every mechanic of Street Fighter there is. With World Warriors, 4 bosses, some New Challengers, Alpha characters, and other new ones for SFIV.

The mechanics too

-Building meter like Super Turbo, no more whiffing for meter.
-Focus Attack/Dash to balance out Parries and keep Zoning a part of the game like ST.
-EX moves from SF3
-Supers/Ultras kinda like more than one super of Alpha.

Getting a Xbox360 EX2 Fighting Stick to use on PC just for this game. I am excited much and am already ready to pick up Gen again(heard he doesnt have his chains anymore) and at the arcade, ready to crouch hard punch and cancel to Abel's Ultra. Get HYPE!

EDIT: I wouldnt know how to compare it to more casual play in general as well, i am guessing everyone should enjoy this game from any school of Street Fighter, but...i do know that you can do a diagonal down forward twice and pull out a Dragon Punch and alot of mention of how lenient and easy it is to do the moves in SFIV compared to even Capcom vs SNK 2...and that game to me is very easy to do moves as it is...i gotta see this for myself sometime.
