Hey guys, I'm here to tell you, with the permission of the great fanboy Sano of course, that the director of Devil May Cry 3 is Kenji Itsuno, planner(designer) of Street Fighter Zero and 3 and producer of Hyper Street Fighter Collection.
And, speaking of SF, it seems that POS of Capcom Fighting Jam, if it doesn't get canned(we will know very soon), may be the last fighter thing coming out of them.Until we get a true confirmation from a true Jap source, we shall see if there'll ever be such a thing as Street Fighter IV.Anyway, here's the link:

Why you gotta hate on CFJ? It's not like KOF NeoWave is any better off, and CFJ isn't even on test yet. Even if you played it, I'd doubt you'd give it a fair shake anyway. I'm waiting until NeoWave and CFJ show up before I even say something.
If CFJ comes off a lot better than KOF NeoWave, I wouldn't be surprised. I'm not holding my breath on that statement, but I'm not condemning the game already just on bias. Lay off the Capcom hate.

Thanks! Funamizu and Okamoto have been dragging their feet not giving us SF4 for years, and it's mailnly these two guys delaying it, but with them leaving, who knows. I do know that Capcom is not too confident in 2D Games right now so if people don't support the Hell out of CFJ, SF2AE and Darkstalkers Chronicles for the PSP, the future's gonna start looking really bleak for SF. It's becoming more and more doubtful that if their is a SF4 that it will be 2D, what with most of their Sprite designers gone, hence the lack of new sprites in CFJ.
Now for RUMORS. These are RUMORS. Do not take as Bible. Capcom will hand SF4 over to Studio Madhouse and Kawajiri (Director of Ninja Scroll, Vampire Hunter D, X TV Anime, etc.) to create SF4, write the scenario, direct, (perhaps their Animators will create the Sprites? If it's 2D...) so the series can go out with a big bang. If it sells well, the series should continue. All rumors come from TAS, who has connections to Capcom of Japan's Art Team, He's come through for me more than once and he Posts regularly at the snk-capcom forums, but even he calls this stuff rumors. He still swears that SF4's release date will be in 2008 hence the quote made in SF Eternal, but said quote was made by Capcom Employees that left Capcom (Okamoto and Funamizu) so I'm kind of doubtful.

Pit Fighter looks better then Neowave. You damn CFJ with such faint praise.
I don't hate Capcom. I just wished they still made games I actually want to play.
Oddly enough, I ended up liking CvS2 and Samurai Spirits Zero a lot, when I was bitching beforehand about recycled sprites. That's why I would want to try it before I pass judgement. Same with NeoWave.
But I know what you mean. None of the 2D fighting people want to take chances anymore. It's like they think it's such a huge risk to revamp a 2D fighting series with new sprites and engine, when in reality the genre has gotten stagnant because they don't take that chance. They think it's safer to go the 3D route (like KOF: MI), rather than redraw sprites.
I also agree that CFJ should have been a lot more nicer graphically if it is really Capcom's swan song of 2D fighters. I'm mildly interested in playing CFJ, but if it got cancelled, I'd admit I wouldn't really miss it at all. I figured if they were going to come back from such a long hiatus to make one more 2D fighter, they'd at least make the effort to "go out with a bang" by making new sprites, as someone stated earlier.
We were basically stuck between a rock and a hard place... either we could never have 2D fighters again (as Capcom has decided on their part), or we can have uninspired recycled 2D fighters for years to come. That's one company down now. It's not surprising, since SNK and Capcom really are shells of their former selves, anyway (when talking about 2D fighting).
I guess we are starting to run out of options... it's a sad day indeed. Although 3D fighters have evolved leaps and bounds, you just can't replicate the art and animation of a 2D fighter.
