Car Smashing Returns in Super Street Fighter IV


The glory and fame that come from being the most powerful fighter in the world are nice, but there's nothing quite like beating up a car.

Famitsu scans and a new trailer for Super Street Fighter IV have confirmed the re-inclusion of bonus stages into the series. More specifically, the classic car and barrel smashing bonus stages from the original Street Fighter II.

piles of bricks [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xsqXo8pW2c], flaming oil drums, and plates of glass if I remember correctly. These acts seem so unnecessary, but if I could shoot flames out of my hands I probably wouldn't ever stop attacking cars.

The greatest example of a car smashing bonus stage actually comes from Final Fight, where Capcom brought a little reality into the situation by having a thug walk in after the car is destroyed that says "Oh, my car" [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-_gpw9ho7Y] as his tears fall down onto the concrete. I've never felt so bad and so good at the same time. The new Super Street Fighter IV mode doesn't appear to have anything happen that is quite as classic, but this trailer does show a man taking photographs of Ryu after he has finished his vandalism, most likely to be used to blackmail Ryu lest he send the photos to the police.

Other modes now revealed to be in Super Street Fighter IV are team battle, endless battle, a replay channel, and probably some other stuff that doesn't compare in the least to killing a car with your bare fists. Now, if we can just get something on par with a plane destruction bonus stage in Super Street Fighter IV Turbo: Championship Edition.

As silly as they are, I actually kind of like these little minigames. I'm glad they made it in the game.

I like how they actually included a spamming Sagat in the trailer. Good representation of the game's online play.

The first thing with the silhouettes seemed to be some kind of spectator mode. Or not, heh.

Can't wait.

I believe you left out Hyper, EX, Remix and HD. At some point we'll probably get an Overcharged SF game.

I remember those minigames. The car one was never that hard for me, but that's because I usually used Chu Li, so it was just mashing the kick buttons.

Right, like Ryu wouldn't just Hadouken the fuck out of the police officers.

Fnar fnar.

Let's remember that he manages to grab the fat dude (forgot his name), leap twelve feet into the air, and smash his face into the ground. And fatty doesn't suffer a cerebral edema. The game is not realistic.

I wasn't saying he can't do it, i was asking how he would do it. I'm already planning to buy the game, but the ability to piledrive cars would make me go after it the first day.

and i reminded you of his name.

I missed the beating up of the cars, it was always my favorite part of the entire game -- and I'm a little surprised there is a person that actually tried it in real life.

... The question is if you saw the guy tearing apart your car bare handed, would you try to stop him?

Wait...so you have to buy a new Street Fighter game?

Cause Super Street Fighter 4 looks exactly the same...only with one add-on...

Don't remember SFII, SFII: Turbo Edition, and Super SFII? They just added on 4 new characters and a couple gameplay modes. They're just reminding us of yesteryear when they used to gouge us all.
