Wow, I have just seen the screenshots for Street Fighter 4 and I am awe-struck. It looks really great, and the fact that they are sticking with a 2D feel but with some 3D pivoting is awesome.
When I first saw the trailor for it I nearly drooled all over myself. The dirt and shadow effect was awesome, but when you look at the trailor and the screenshots they don't exactly match-up theme wise. While the trailor had a type of Sin City feel to it, the screenshots are really clean (bright colors, old-school SFII Turbo streets in the background) so as always the trailor must be the teaser, but the screenshots themselves by themselves are evidence that the game will be awesome and true to old school fanatics of SF. The fact that the game will be online as well is even more of a candy package, finally a way to show fighter superiority globally!
Line up is already including Chun-Li, Ryu and Ken (the screenshots around the web are including the mighty buds locked in martial arts battle), and Dhalsim. I am hopeful for Cammy and Akuma to make the line-up as well the almightily shocking Blanka! But we'll see I suppose. Either way, I definitely will need to get a PS3 for this monster of a resurrection.
Some of the screenshots are here if anyone has yet to see them:
