Capcom announce Street Fighter IV!! Fanboys everywhere rejoice!

We never thought it would happen but Capcom have recently announced a new Street Fighter game accompanied by a flashy debut trailer. The trailer (cast thine eyes south) shows old favourites and long time sparring partners Ryu and Ken having a right old punch-up, complete with instantly recognisable - nay, iconic - moves making a comeback. Classic moves like the Hadoken fireball and Sho-ryu-ken Dragon Punch are depicted in all their glory, erupting in lovely watercolour brush strokes, instantly rekindling fond memories of misspent youth rolling pocket money into SF coin-ops, albeit in an arty way that looks rather nice. All of this eye-catching tussle between the two stalwarts takes place on a painterly battlefield, not unlike the canvas employed by Capcom stablemate Okami. Is the trailer possibly indicative of a bold new visual style for the old school beat 'em up or just a dramatic way of re-introducing everyones favourite fighting game in a typically overblown way? We're not sure whether the hardcore SF fanboys will accept an artsy-fartsy new direction for Ryu and co. so our guess will be with the latter.
Watch this space to see more from the grandaddy of brawlers and find out if this old pugilist can recapture the glory from its bygone days. Meanwhile, enjoy the trailer...

We reckon Street Fighter IV will be Hurricane Kicking onto a console near you around this time next year...don't quote us on that though.
