The osaka game Festival will start tomorrow Nov 15th and will last for the whole weekend.
The home version of sf4 will be shown ion the event and hopefully we get our first videos of fei lon dan, cammy, gen and rose.
let’s try and keep all hands on impresions , videos and pics from the event in this one thread so it will be easier for all of us to know info is released and where to check for updates on the event.
ps: i was wondering who here from the srk community will attend?
I’m almost positive we will have vids of the new characters; think about it, a random BELGIAN expo had playable rose, cammy, etc. This huge event in Japan clearly has to.
Maybe even a new character announcement? (not saying I want/expect more, just a possibility).
Went to the show. Wasnt like TGS with a ton of announcments and stuff, it was more like a poor mans tokyo game show. However, it was way less crowded, and a buncha games were exhibited, but no announcments or anything.
SFIV had the normal cast plus Sakura, Seth and Gokuen playable. I played a buncha matches as Sakura, and im gonna post my thoughts in her thread.
360 ver was played using the Hori 360 HRAPs, which worked well, and it was 2/3 rounds. The PS3 version was played on the Hori SFIV ps3 joysticks, which also worked well, and was 3/5 rounds. Obviously the PS3 one was the bigger one, but i tried out both, lol.
TvC didnt have Joe or Saki, so i didnt even bother trying it cause it would have been no diff from the loc test. Plus no stick, classic controller or wii mote only.
I tried a few other games, the new 360 ninja gaiden type game, the psp hokuto no ken fighting game (trash), phantasy star online for the ds (decently fun), but mostly sfiv.
The con was decent tho, and it wasnt that crowded (seriously, there were like, at most 4-5 people in line for SFIV at any given time after i got there). I got to see a lot of games in action which was enough for me for the most part (aside from SFIV).
I got the new EGM in the mail today and they mentioned something about a character named Sheva. Anyone know what thats about? Surely something about a new character would have shown up by now right? Think this was just an EGM fuck up?
Re-read the sentence in the magazine. The sentence is talking about Resident Evil 5 and Street Fighter 4 both revealing new ladies (Sheva and Sakura), so Sheva must be a chick from RE5.
