Street Fighter IV Over-Anal Analysis
Today I caught the new video up on GameTrailers, analyzing the Street Fighter IV trailer that was released just a couple months ago. The game is barely into production, but already everyone is picking apart the trailer for clues of what to expect of the final product. I can understand fanboys like myself getting excited over the next Street Fighter game. But that trailer can’t really have anything that we can really go on, no matter what Christian Scensson says.
The truth is that the trailer was nothing more than a 1min 20sec cartoon meant to promote the game. That’s what teasers are all about! I can see that the trailer shows some of the art style they might use as the theme of the game, but nothing regarding gameplay. We still have quite a ways to go before any true gameplay footage surfaces. Hell, it’s been like pulling teeth trying to get some decent footage of the Super Street Fighter II HD Remix game that’s been in development for quite some time.
In the mean time, I guess we can continue to see more people breaking the video apart like this.

True, but the footage that is at the end of the video looks nice and has a classic feel to it.

At the end of the analysis vid or the SSF2HD gameplay vid?
Either way, they’re clearly at a point where the game is partially playable. And from what we can tell from the gameplay vid, they could easily just hook what hey have into some A/V capture equipment. It looks like the footage we got was in one way or another leaked, but there’s no reason why Capcom shouldn’t have immediately followed that with their own official release of clear game footage…
