Breaking news: Street Fighter isn’t dead. Even breaking-er news: Street Fighter 5 is on the way and it’ll be a PlayStation 4 and PC exclusive, powered by the tears of bitter Xbox One fans. Trailer after the jump.
Of course, the teaser trailer above shows very little of the actual game. More on this story as it develops. Update: Video uploading is buggered. GIF images, are not. Enjoy!
Last Updated: December 5, 2014
It’s been a long while since we’ve seen a mainline Street Fighter. After six years Capcom …
Enter a realm where the ordinary fades away, and true luxury reigns supreme. Presenting …
A spooky European village. Properly scary castle mania. Vampires. Werewolves! The only thing more frightening, is a glimpse at your empty bank account when it comes to deciding whether or not you can grab Resident Evil Village this month. Capcom's successor to its long-running survival-horror franchise is finally out, and if you've read our review then you know the game is a winner on multiple levels.
Critical Hit is built on the idea that we are more than one thing. Are you a hardcore gamer who also enjoys a night out at the movies? Perhaps you’re a professional cosplayer who is searching for the perfect burger, or maybe you’re just interested in high-end tech and Netflix binging. Covering gaming, entertainment, tech and geek, Critical Hit offers information and critique from a staff of diverse, knowledgeable and fiercely opinionated writers.

For a war you need two sides that can actually compete. This is just a massacre. 😉

I’ll just have to spend R5k on a new GPU, update all drivers, install more RAM to play this game on my PC then…. but only after I’m done with Tomb Raider on Xbox One 😛

The Xbone crowd are quite quiet maybe they are calming down before posting.

It’s shock… followed by denial… they’ll hit anger a little later and then the internet will feel the wrath of 15 folks moaning.

Some good news at least, so tired of Eskom shedding their load on our faces.
I'm really feeling it! (Umar)

Half an hour later and finally I’ve calmed down…..then I see some gifs of Ryu doing a Hadouken and suddenly my blood pressure rises.

December 5, 2014 at 15:06
Thats how the pc crowd felt when we got left out. We are so hardened now that we don’t get mad or care much any more.
Captain JJ in theory
December 5, 2014 at 15:07
Exactly. GTA V taught us a lot. Heck I’m not even interested in it anymore when it eventually comes next year.
RustedFaith
December 5, 2014 at 15:08
lol same here il get the game of the year addition at the end of next years steam sale for $19.99 🙂
Captain JJ in theory
December 5, 2014 at 15:09
$20 is too much for me for a game which will by then be over 2 years old.
RustedFaith
December 5, 2014 at 15:10
true true but the standalone will prob be $9.99 by then 🙂
Captain JJ in theory
December 5, 2014 at 15:11
Also true. I will happily be waiting for it on sale while I happily pay full price for games that deserve it like Witcher 3.

Amen brother! Then next up Star Citizen at the end of next year cant wait!!!

I ate Bovril two weeks ago for the first time in fifteen years, Marmite too.
I choose peanut butter.

I think every version is going to be a super milk-it edition. This gen will see at least 89 different SF5 editions. This is Capcom after all.

I’m bummed out that the Xbox won’t be getting this but least it will be on PC. I’d rather play it on PC than buy a PS4.
