Capcom confirms Sagat's and Balrog's presence in Street Fighter 4

[TÐZ]

http://ps3.qj.net/Capcom-confirms-Sagat-s-and-Balrog-s-presence-in-Street-Fighter-4/pg/49/aid/114865

Remember how you had to go through three "grandmasters" before you got to M. Bison, the final boss in Street Fighter 2? Well, two of those grandmasters - Sagat and Balrog have returned for Street Fighter 4, and Capcom has officially confirmed it.

As shown in test locations around Japan, Sagat and Balrog don't seem to be available in the character select mode, but according to Capcom, they may be challenged once the right conditions are met in single player mode. Note how Zangief uses his trademark, in-your-face brute force approach to pound Sagat into the pavement, but the big wrestler miscalculates his timing with Balrog.

Furthermore, the Street Fighter 4 version being tested included three new stages, namely the Drive In at Night stage in North America, the Beautiful Bay stage in South Asia and the Inland Jungle stage in South America. Capcom has noted that these may not be in their final form yet.

Before we proceed, please note that we are referring to the US Balrog here - the boxer, and not the Japanese Street Fighter 2 Balrog who is known as Vega in the US. That said, enjoy the videos (despite the view-obstructing passers-by)

Awesome!

[CAPTAIN OBVIOUS!! LVL 16!!]

Yeah. I heard about this. There were Rumors that Sagat was the Final Boss!!  they better not be true.

[Tenspeed]

Yeah makes ya think.

[Rage]

To tell u the truth im starting to think that this game is going to be a sinker. From wat i seen its street fighter II but in 3-d with new stages and few new moves   Im going to sit back wait and c, thats all Rage can do

Reguardless peps  are going to be all over it,  even if it turns out the way i c it oing now. It would be nice to c them expand on the stories they started. What happened to Rose? where are Juni,Juli and the rest. wat happened to R. Mika. Gin? Evil Ryu? Cammies complete story. Dan? Adon? 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

I just hope that Dan and Fei Long will be in..

That's Truth, Some Development wouldn't be bad but I've heard that there wouldn't be much.

Although, Evil Ryu is actually a "What If?" character. And who's Gin?

gin is an old dude from street fighter alfa 3

[MuηkyMØÜf]

And who's Gin?

You mean Gen.




Or do you mean Jin

[Tenspeed]

what's wrong with sagat?

I'm just saying, "Would you rather have Sagat as a Final Boss?? Or a REAL cool like Bison or Akuma or someone new as the Final Boss??"

Yeah makes ya think.

I think I'd prefer sagat actually.

It would be fitting between him and Ryu, because Sagat is nowhere to be seen in the SFIII series (This takes between SFII and SFIII)
Either that, or maybe Capcom is gonna hold back who the final boss is until later this year.

That's my theory....

[Rage]

Sagat would made a horrible boss. I mean he's one of the toughest SOB's in street fighter but he doent have the moves .

And who's Gin?

You mean Gen.

Yeah i meant Gen and come on  man since when is Jin in the normal street fighter universe

Bad spelling confuses me.

[Tenspeed]

i have no doubt in my mind that bison will SOMEHOW make a comeback as the boss.

[Negi Springfield]

I got a few more ideas of my own

but before that.....


people who can't come back:
Gen
Sodom
Rolent
Ingrid
and
Juli & Juni

all have solid reasons
but the most, is for Gen
he died
of Cancer (or was it some other illnes?)
Gen kept challenging Akuma to fight him
but, Akuma being a Warrior of pride
could not fight someone who was handicapped
O.o how noble of you Akuma
also
of course Dan should be back
XD
JUST FOR THE LOVE OF GOD,MAKE HIM PLAY LIKE HE DID IN CVS2!
<.<

Historically, in games, dying of cancer really doesn't mean all that much, i'd go so far as to say that your MORE likely to appear in a sequal

I would like to hear ur reasoning for all these characters not returning, just interested in ur pov. But if anything why these two Ingrid and Juli & Juni

[laspacho]

Cool Sagat has some muscle unlike his anorexic look from SF2.
