Street Fighter IV

But they integrated the...

The fact that it goes back into the history of Street Fighter, back to Street Fighter 4, which, again, I wither up and die in a corner because the characters are like, oh, I grew up in elementary school playing Street Fighter 4 with my friends.

I'm like, oh.

Yeah.

with uh skull knight mon and deadly axe mon okay you know what i like that this changes up the armor so you've got like a horned helmet going on it looks like a skull which makes sense given that this has skull knight mon in it uh who let me show this guy because this guy rules uh this is skull knight mon he's a funny little guy and i love him Then here's Deadly Axemon as well.

I don't know why these guys have like the Street Fighter 4 super move filter going on with the black ink on them, but it's cool.

It's what it reminds me of whenever I see that is like Street Fighter 4.

Sure.

um anyway so yeah like basically the head though you've got like a horned helmet uh with like you know little like a hole for the eyes it can be seen there uh for the chest it is a big skull face looks a lot more menacing than it does on the original uh uh skull nightmon you've got like big red eyes inside the pectorals where the you know where the eyes are you've got like The muscles contorting into a fucked up face, kind of.

Mm-hmm.

I mean, even at CEO, like, there's a Street Fighter IV Revival Group.

I was talking to Bob Custom Gamer.

I hadn't seen him for a while.

Third Strike, same thing.

Street Fighter 4, there's a big Street Fighter 4 scene.

Maybe we still play Street Fighter 4 matches.

So, I don't, like, yes, if you're talking about the, oh, but I want the hype of new characters, oh, but, well, I'm like, yeah, that's fine, dude, I guess, but I still play Dragon Ball FighterZ.

Like, that game, like, doesn't get real support anymore.

And I remember playing as Birdie on the PS1.

And then, yeah, Street Fighter 4, I thought it was awesome, but I didn't love it as much as, like, the average person.

Like, a lot of people, SF4 was, like, a huge deal.

5 was the one that released in a threadbare state.

Yeah, I mean, the concern, I guess, is in general, RTS, real-time strategy, at a bit of a weird place, especially that kind of Blizzard style, right? Yeah, so it has not had a renaissance.

Hey, there was a time we thought that about fighting games, and then Street Fighter IV happened, right? Exactly.

So, you know.

It

I keep saying this.

If Mena challenged Daigo in Street Fighter IV, then I think it would have been cool.

I went back to challenge Justin in an old game.

That's like me calling Justin out in Marvel Tokon or something.

CN might have been at Southeast Asia Majors, but...

Either way, the big thing about that set is the nightclub energy and we had Z on the mic.

And Z was a notoriously unhinged commentator for late-game Street Fighter IV and occasionally early-game Street Fighter V, but things got a little eSports a little too quick for Z.

Z was a great commentator, incredibly intelligent, very witty, but he was the least politically correct person you could possibly put on the mic every time.

So anything kind of with a gun or a guitar or an arcade stick or anything like that.

yeah and you just get sometimes like they're just really cool packs I mean you talked about the Street Fighter ones like I got the Street Fighter 4 special edition which had the diorama of Crimson Viper and Ryu fighting on like the Chinese street yeah there you go so they're little figures they're on the diorama and the box had the disc with the movie on as well um movie wasn't great to be fair but you know it's all just great stuff that you just you just get and of course you mentioned consoles as well and yeah yeah obviously i think you've got you've got some delicious special editions mate i've only got one and that's that's probably the the visa and there and it's only a special edition because of that that Virtua Fighter Remix 1 millionth console sold campaign.

And yeah, thanks for helping me out with finding that one because this is one I really wanted.

Well, actually, I'll tell a lie.

It's very much like an arcade aesthetic.

I'm kind of a punch, kick and guard.

Because I've got, and I know you've got it as well, the Fight Stick TE, the Street Fighter 4 one.

I use that for playing Virtua Fighter 5 Revo on the PC.
