Street Fighter IV Gameplay Videos
Street Fighter 4 was playable at AOU 2008 (an Arcade Game conference in Japan). One stage and 10 playable characters were shown. The majority of major videogame websites have a decent collection of gameplay videos.
The gameplay looks pretty nice in motion. Speed and strategies feel true to the Street Fighter style. The 3D graphics look sharp and don't appear to affect the classic 2D gamplay.
I still wish they did something a bit more stylized, but all in all it's looking pretty nice. I also hope we get some interesting new characters.

I suck too. I only use Ryu and can get a 3-hit combo (using a fireball or uppercut) when I'm lucky. You down to play? ;-)
I wish I was better...but still love playing. I'm shocked when I see a "real" SF2, Alpha, or 3 player. How can they move so quickly?!
I heard about the film. I'm a little pessimistic (memories of a Belgian Van Damme Guile fry my brain!). Kristin Kreuk is a great Chun Li... I just hope they aren't too literal with the costume. An exact costume replica would look like a bad cosplay film. Duncan looks perfect but I'm traumatized by Daredevil. Chris Klein is playing Charlie (Nash is Charlie in the Japanese version of the game).

i can only play this in the arcade so i suck anonymously rather than in front of my friends as usual. I'm really terrible in the game, but the lack of 2d makes me violently ill.
oh and michael clarke duncan is balrog in the street fighter remake!!!!
this is from chud.com man, ho ho oh boy.
"The very cute Kristin Kreuk is set as Chun Li, who will be the protagonist this time out (as opposed to the stalwart Colonel William F. Guile, so memorably played by Jean-Claude Van Damme in Steven E. de Souza's 1994 classic). Meanwhile, Michael Clarke Duncan will play Balrog. That's not a joke. I'm not sure if Nash or Gen are characters from later iterations of the game, but those are the characters that'll be brought to life by, respectively, Chris Klein and Rick Yune."
