Yeah, been following this game closely since the announcement and it has improved a ton visually.
Already preordered the CE. SF4 is going to be so epic you just have to have the CE.

You're right, it's gonna be epic. I've been considering getting the CE, but I don't know yet. I'm either gonna get the SFIV CE or the X-Blades CE. Don't really want to shell out money for both. The X-Blades CE is just huge and even includes a topless figurine. Gonna be a tough decision.
The European CE actually has both the figures.
Yeah, I noticed that. Here in the US though, PS3 has Ryu and 360 has C. Viper. I would rather have gotten a C. Viper figurine, since it's easy to get a Ryu figurine already.
Interesting... I have never heard of X-Blades till now. Actually, I have, but I had no idea it was that. It sounded like a sports game. But X-Blades looks really good.
Is the developer Gaijin as in Gaijin Works, ex-Working Designs?
Nah, It's developed by Gaijin Entertainment. They are an independent Russian developer.
x blades has been in development for like 5 million years. it was named oniblade prior.
It was already released in Russia only, under that name.
For $79.99, here's everything you get:1. The game
2. A limited-edition (ie., not sold anywhere else) figurine – Ryu in the PS3 box, C. Viper hotness in the 360 flavor. Decisions, decisions...
3. Street Fighter IV: The Ties That Bind: a 65 minute anime movie — created by Studio 4C — that sets up the story of SFIV by explaining events post-SFII. BluRay disc in the PS3 box! The Xbox version is a 360 game disc that outputs the movie at 720P, not a DVD.
4. A mini-strategy guide from Prima, written by the same people doing the full-on guide and illustrated by Udon Comics
5. CD soundtrack. Rock SFIV stage chunez in your car!
6. …Plus some secret additional downloadable content that we’re not quite ready to reveal at this point. Look for more announcements soon!

All I want is the game and the blue ray movie. They are just making a mint by throwing in extra crap.
Oh the blu-ray disc certainly makes things more interesting.
Most likely the anime that comes with it will be released later.
But it looks like they changed the cover artwork, unless that's the cover for just the CE. That looks a lot better than the other ones though.
I think they changed it for the regular one, also. A lot of people were complaining about the Chun-Li cover.
Street Fighter IV's online mode sounds awesome. I can't wait for this game.
"We don't put up hurdles...we want to make it as easy as if there was someone sitting next to you in an arcade," Ono hints. "We're going to engineer the home version of the game so you can actually play in arcade mode and you can turn on a function that would allow match-making in the background, so you could just have somebody jump in exactly as they would at the arcade," Ono says. "No one's really done this before, so it has potential to be really, really huge."
But it goes even deeper. "There's a ridiculous amount of options and filters you can turn on," he continues, "and if you prefer to not have a function on at all, you can turn it off, or choose only ranked matches or player matches." And if you want some truly strenuous practice, Ono says, "you can even set it so you only fight people that are significantly better than you based upon the battle point count." Once you set your options, you'll be able to hop into arcade mode for a few quick warm-up rounds while you wait for a challenger to join your game."

Is this releasing on the PC like other Capcom games this generation?
Most probably
Yes, there's a PC version. June 2nd is the release date for it, which is over three months after the console releases.
Some new HQ vids, with some of the console only fighters. The game is looking awesome.

I’ve been waiting 10 very long years since the last installment of stf back in 1999. I always wanted Gouken (ryu and ken sensei aka akuma brother) to be a playable character and it seems my wish came true. I’m impress with the new fighting system, out of all the stf I prefer Alpha’s system to date.
I’ve been playing stf alpha anthology recently and it just rekindle in me how bad ass this game really is from different fighting styles v-ism, x-ism and a-ism to breaking one’s guard. I hope stf 4 will live up to the hype but watching fights on you tube it seems promising
(open thought to myself “collection of thoughts ....sparks idea”)
Damn stf Alpha Series seems to need a thread

GameCrazy: Street Fighter IV Commemorative Coin For Pre-Orders
What better way to celebrate the arcade history behind Street Fighter than with a collectable coin? Getting one is simple: You get this exclusive commemorative Street Fighter coin when you pre-order SFIV from GameCrazy. In addition to the coin itself, there's some fun Street Fighter history on the back of the packaging.
It's better than the Ryu Headband that you get from GameStop. Too bad there are no GameCrazy's here, because I'd rather have the coin..
