A picture of Yoshinori Ono released from the Gamepro Germany event confirms the existence of T.Hawk in the new edition of Street Fighter 4 who appears in the game on the TV in the background, and the picture also appears to show the beginning of the word Super on a banner/poster for the new edition of the game.

D4RK ONION · 27-09-2009 7:04pm

Eagle eyes whoever spotted that!

Zapp Brannigan · 27-09-2009 7:57pm

Also apparently that's Ibuki's hand above the guy in blue's head.

Azza · 27-09-2009 10:43pm

Notice the combined failure of both people to summon a fireball, disgraceful that they are allowed develop a Street Fighter game yet can not even summon a fireball.

Retr0gamer · 27-09-2009 11:20pm

Maybe they are practitioners of psycho power?

chopperbyrne · 27-09-2009 11:22pm

Also, the word Super is behind the Street Fighter IV logo.

Im betting thats the new girl character in the poster cos shes supposed to have a purple flame kick. That could be the purple flame kick.

Ken B · 28-09-2009 1:32am

Ermm, a little problem.......the character(T. Hawk) has a full Super, Ultra and Health bar. Surely this is (practically) impossible without a major overhaul of the core game mechanics. If you guys say this is training mode then why is it on that horrible drive-thru background?
A hoax, methinks...........

Also the other guy could be deejay.

time will tell, I hope some features are surprising.

Mr. pointy head off inside xbox made allusions to Super Street fighter IV being featured on it this week.

If its in development they could do anything with it.
Selecting training stage has been a requested feature too.

Probably showing off the two ultras and super using infinite gauges.
This may well be a hoax (....) but Super SFIV is real and the details (well some) are coming out this week. tomorrow, in fact

Beta/debug mode/dev kit edition maybe

and kneecap, it doesn't say MAXIMUM on his pants so I hope it's not Deejay!

Owwmykneecap · 28-09-2009 1:54am

you're probably right, though in some positions the maximum wasnt always fully visible.
The baggy pants don't seem to fit ibuki.

http://media.giantpachinkomachineofdoom.com/blog/2008-10/images/ibuki.png

Maybe its the new character.

Of course it could be an alt costume.

Orim · 28-09-2009 8:21am

Don't know if anybody put this up :

http://www.capcom.co.jp/newwarrior/index.html

As others have said more/better stages. The stages should match up to each character ala the SF2 plane flying around the world.

I’m still in two minds about the extra characters and other "improvements" but I'll wait for the official announcement before I decide anything.

animaX · 28-09-2009 11:56am

Hugo from 3rd strike has been announced!

Retr0gamer · 28-09-2009 11:57am

Looks like there is a SFIV related announcement tomorrow and I'm guessing it will surprise no one. I think the purple kick in azzas photo is just C. Viper.

Azza · 28-09-2009 12:09pm

animaX for the love of god that photo is clearly fake, look how stupid Ryu looks, look at his big left toe, worst photo shop ever! There is no chance in hell Ryu will be in SSF IV, worst and gayest character ever.

Placebo · 28-09-2009 12:22pm

t.hawk is a joke of a character

leave him out

bush · 28-09-2009 12:32pm

I could never use a character that looks as dumb as t.hawk, his stance just annoys me.

I always liked T.Hawk.

Pity I suck at 360ing consistently and 720s are generally a complete fluke.

The time of the official announcement is 17:00 JST 29/09 according to the capcom site.

Using methods involving the planets, stars, tidal patterns, a device called a sextent and maths far to complicated to begin describing here - I have dedcuced that that means 9am tomorrow morning for us ganjin.

That's a shopped photo of dudley, it emerged before the release of the original SF4!

A-Trak · 28-09-2009 3:14pm

I think that Dudley one was doing the rounds a few months back.

animaX got there before me!

Sagat06 · 28-09-2009 3:15pm

Looks good tho... goddamn Capcom and their hyping abilities!!

A-Trak · 28-09-2009 3:19pm

Bloody hell, these look good though!

I wonder why the ultra bar is white in one of the shots?

Not sure, but there seems to be a new roman numeral "I" in the ultra bar which people think might be to do with a choice of ultra's before the fight (like third strike with its I II III). Although, they are all I's in the pics

Orim · 28-09-2009 3:40pm

Those are all photoshopped. I can tell from the pixels and having seen a few shops in my time.

It could be possible that you build ultra now to different levels, so FA armor absorbs could become very important if the level II ultras are really good.

no they are not.

Bison has the copyright on purple colored special moves. No one else can use em. :mad:

Why do you say that?

I think having build up double the meter for an ultra would be a lot better than any other option for having multiple ultras (selection before match or both available at all times). Having said that I would think that the second level would be the current level of power/damage. Also the ultra meter would not dissipate after a round.

Firstly, they aren't some fuzzy cam of a tv from 10 feet away.

Secondly, the graphical quality of the new characters seems top notch. The textures seem similar to the established cast, the colour depth, the perspective, it all seems to fit. If this is fake, serious work went into it and I would tip my hat.

I highly doubt it's fake.

Orim · 28-09-2009 4:29pm

I don't think they are actually photoshopped, I was extracting the urine.

Placebo quoted me about my ultra comment so I assumed that's what he had issue with.

Placebo · 28-09-2009 4:53pm

oops thought you meant the image in full

Jim · 28-09-2009 5:03pm

French site seems to be down. Kotaku have the pics up as well http://kotaku.com/5369357/are-these-super-street-fighter-iv-screens/gallery/

I agree,those are definately Hawks moves too(st RH and the dive).Juri looks cool.Hopefully they go down the route of adding just Hawk and Deejay and a couple of new characters.I'm not against the idea of 3s characters but too many could dilute the game too much.

What I'd really like to see too is the game getting a serious speed boost.

joe123 · 28-09-2009 7:42pm

Is this going to be DLC or is it a new game entirely? Its a bit annoying to see them start on a new street fighter game already with the last one only out.

I wish theyd release dlc where we could have specific player stages with their old music like it used to be instead of the crap they have in it now. I never in my life had to turn a game down as much as I do with street fighters "indestructable nobodys ever gunna break me down" or whatever that fella says...

And if this is a new game its going to make it even harder to find a championship match online.:(

Jim · 28-09-2009 7:49pm

I reckon it will be a new disc. Remember the arcade version has been out quite awhile in Japan, so I imagine this new iteration will be new arcade cabinets in a few months, and then a new console version sometimes after that. I reckon near the same date as the original release.

Rynaldo · 28-09-2009 7:51pm

Awesome game
