While I'm sick of fighting games, this series deserves a comeback and sequels, maybe sales can convince Capcom for a Darkstalkers 4 that's SSF4 quality? This could be used to test the waters.
I might consider playing this, Darkstalkers is one of the most creative and refreshing fighting series ever created.
The fighting system is one of the greatest and well rounded ones out there, which is further enhanced by the stylish awesomeness of the characters.

If they remake w/ SFIV aesthetic, I'll puke.

KoF XIII or greater engine, or GTFO.

I agree. The animations in the DS series were so incredible, it'd be a shame to have it lost to the new capcom fighting game engine of late.

stupid shit

Can you like, you know...fuck off? You come here just to bitch about nothing. Silly bitch. Nobody needs SFIV style graphics.


I would the game but I'm horrible at it (I assume it's just a port of the old games?) and it would be a waste of money for me. :(

2D sprites are too expensive to invest in these days. even though SNKP does it, they almost went bankrupt over KOF12, and it took two KOFs to reach KOF standards (and even KOF13 lacks key teams). At least SFIV graphics are full of life, impact, personality, and atmosphere compared to those dumbed down and awful plastic MVC3 models. and 3D models are easier to develop than 2D sprites. Yea DS4 shouldn't have the ink effect, but a DS flavored version of SFIV 2.5D standards could look incredible, especially with PS4 hardware. :) Going 2D for DS4 doesn't guarantee quality sprite art, though. I hated HD Remix's sprites, the original had more colors and the animations flow better with them. the HD sprites made it look like a cheap Flash game (though a few characters actually looked slightly better, like Vega, T.Hawk, Balrog, though others looked worse and weaker like Ken, Chun Li, Blanka, Guile, Cammy, etc.)

Clearly you are the expert on anything 2D-related.

I'll chime in and say I never liked Udon's art. The way they handled HD Remix took out the style that the original Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo had.

I can't stand the cash grab Capcom is doing with just porting their old fighting games. They can't even port them right without problems like input lag (looking at you SF3 and JoJo) or messed up hit boxes/damage modifiers/sound (JoJo).

Best to just fight on GGPO, but they took that option away.

huh? ds ? I have one of those! Serious there is a darkstalkers game!? Otherwise what're you talking about here?

edit: even before I submit it the first time!
I realize you are just abbreviating Darkstalkers, wishful thinking Damn You!

I have the strategy guide for darkstalkers and a long box both are really beat.

sometimes I wish I could just delete my posts.'.

preach it cousin, preach it.

Bruv, you know we are in the same choir.

On the strenth, I wish I could wipe middleware from the face of the earth. 'powered by Unreal tech'...PLEASE get to pounding sand.

I'll yell as loud as I want, for programmers who don't get down to the metal-TO GET OFFA MY LAAAAAWN.

Our kids are lucky that we'll be able to show 'em what time it is.

...and saner...not for nothin'-I'm just not buying that Capcom don't have the budget to do sprite work anymore. Capcom has plenty of budget. It's how they choose to allot those resources that bothers me.

Middleware powered quite a few PS2/Xbox/GC games. Shit, Renderware was everywhere back then. And Unreal can look amazing in the right hands (MK9 is a testament to that). The only problem I have with middleware is that it realistically should have brought development costs down, but companies aren't passing that on.

As for Capcom making a big 2D game, I had to file that dream away a long time ago. Would be nice, though. It took a while, but I'm definitely in the boat that SF4 visually is just goofy-looking. I'd rather have something similar to how MvC3 looked. Capcom did a good job on that and none of the women in it have large man-hands.
