Forums - PC - Street Fighter on the PC

Street Fighter IV was one of the main reasons I wanted to get a PS3, until I found out it was coming to PC.  Probably old news, but I just now heard about it.

Are you going to get SFIV for the PC or PS3?  I know it would probably be easier playing local multiplayer on a TV with PS3, but with two XBOX360 controllers and an LCD TV, you could do the same thing on PC.  In fact, if I get the game, I would probably re-arrange my room so the PC could hook into the TV.

PC port of SFIV will not be out until quite a bit later this year (they haven't even announced a release date yet I think).  Right now the only way to play it is on a PS3/XBox360.

P.S. - If you do get it on a PC, don't get two XBox controllers for it, they are supposed to be horrible for this type of game due to the inaccurate D Pad design.  What you want are arcade sticks.



I know the game doesn't come out for a while. Doesn't bother me.
If the meantime, I guess I need to find some better controllers.




 

Yeah, there are much better controllers for the PC than the 360 pad for fighting games.

look up Saturn pad USB on ebay.



Why buy an arcade stick?

Buy a whole cabinet :) SF IV, plus 10,000 other arcade games on one machine.

PC + Wii owners unite.  Our last-gen dying platforms have access to nearly every 90+ rated game this gen.  Building a PC that visually outperforms PS360 is cheap and easy.    Oct 7th 2010 predictions (made Dec 17th '08)

I'm not sure how the buttons are used in SFIV. But I already have one SNES pad to USB connector. I could get another one and hook two SNES pads in my computer.




 

Up until the start of this week I was still hoping it'd be released today on PC.

I find the classic controller handles fighting games pretty well, wiimote and nunchuk isn't too shabby either but i prefer dpad to analog. Bluetooth adapter for ~£5, connect wiimote to PC, plug in classic controller and away you go.

If someone writes a script to let me motion the hadukens with wiimote I'll be a very happy man.
