I’m pretty excited about today’s SFHD update. Rey has given me some early work-in-progress screenshots of the game. By “work-in-progress,” I mean these screenshots do NOT reflect how the final game will look exactly, but they should give you a pretty good idea. So please keep that in mind when you are viewing them. In his written update, Rey talks about the look of the characters, UI, and also clarifies the issue of which version of the game SFHD is being based on.

Remember Capcom’s classic games Commando and Mercs (sequel to Commando)? Well, at our Gamer’s Day event this week we announced a full-fledged sequel, Commando 3, for Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network.

It’s going to have 3-player co-op, co-op vehicles, and a ton of weapons to blast through the game with. Also, music is being done by Norihiko Hibino, known for his work on the Metal Gear series.

Go HERE for the complete rundown on the features and specs, HERE to read the hands-on report on Gamespot, HERE for the IGN write-up, and HERE to see the trailer. IGN also has some gameplay videos up on their site.

We of course had a bunch of other big announcements this week, and you can read all about them HERE.

How’s it going? I know, it feels like it’s been forever since the last update. I’ve been working on wrapping up my own pet project, namely 3 Themes and a gamer pic pack for Xbox Live featuring all the characters of Puzzle Fighter (basically Street Fighter and Darkstalkers). I just sent those off to someone else to handle the submission to MS. They should be available later this month. I’ll post a little preview of what they’ll look like pretty soon, but I think you’ll be very pleased with how they turned out. I know I am. I don’t want to spoil it, but let’s just say that everybody who voted for their favorite characters to appear in the gamer pic pack will get what they want…

Well, Rey, the producer on Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, was able to get me another update this afternoon. I’m just now getting around to posting it because I’ve been working on everything above plus a whole lot more today. So, let’s get right to it.

I have lots of feedback from Rey, plus some brand new Street Fighter art for you to drool over.

A lot of you have been asking for some new Chun Li stuff. While I don’t have color animation frames from the actual gameplay for you, I do have something almost as cool. And for your reading pleasure, SF HD Remix producer Rey Jimenez has given me yet another message to share with you, where he talks about how the game is coming along, and addresses feedback about Guile’s new look and other questions and comments that have come up in the comments here on the Digital blog and on some of the various forums. If you haven’t read his other posts, hit “Digital” at the top of the page and see what other stuff I have been posting for SF and the other download titles.

I got some new art from Rey that just came in, along with a note to post:

Just a quick peek at Guile today. I noticed a lot of questions on the Capcom BBS and Digital Blogs from my last post. I will try to address some of them next week. Today is a pretty important milestone day for Super Street Fighter II Turbo and I will be working on it all day. So be sure to check the blog next week for the next update.

I’ve got a triple-punch of goodies for you SF fans today. First, new artwork to feast your eyes on. Second, producer Rey Jimenez walks us through how Udon Comics are going about updating the character artwork for the game. And third, Rey responds to some of the questions, requests, and speculations that have been made about the game both in the comments here on the blog and on the message boards.

Here’s a quick and dirty peek into how the fantastic artists from Udon are creating the frames of animation. For some of you artist and graphics peeps, this will be old news to you. But for a lot of you, this should give you some cool insight into the process that you may not have known about.

Wow, I guess you guys really like the new Street Fighter!!! The producer, Rey Jimenez, wanted to respond to some of your comments and share a bit more about the game, and thank you for the overwhelming response himself.

I just have a quick update today. The next sneak peak I have is of everyone’s favorite Russian bear wrestler, yes the Red Cyclone himself, Zangief. What we have here is a work in progress, that’s why it’s not colored in yet and there might be a few minor changes that will go into it.

So you’ve already seen how Ken looks in his new hi-res duds, courtesy of Udon Comics.

I plan on bringing you art for all the SF characters in the game, and much more, and to continue on the heels of Ken, here is Akuma. The first image shows a comparison between the old version on the right and the new version on the left. There are two more frames of animation below, showing off Akuma in the middle of classic moves. Yes, these are actual frames of animation from the game, meaning Akuma will look like this in the game, only animated.

If you missed it last week, I posted the very first image from the new Street Fighter game, Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix (X360 and PS3) on our Street Fighter forums.

Basically the game is being re-drawn from the ground up by the talented folks at Udon Comics (who also do the official Street Fighter comic in the US) so you’ll be able to play the game in glorious 1080p HD native resolution.
