It seems like every other article I’ve published on this blog is Street Fighter related. Not that I’m really complaining, and it’s mainly due to the internet constantly being home to a lot of great Street Fighter related news, videos, fan tributes, and everything else…
As an example of the “everything else” did you know there is a company creating a Super Street Fighter IV themed LED HD TV? …They claim it’s the perfect TV for the Street Fighter fan, whether that is actually true I can’t say.

You may have heard of Kenny Omega, as the guy who did Zangief’s Ultra in a wrestling ring. However it seems his Street Fighter love doesn’t end there. He also does a Hadoken (close range, obviously without the fireball), and his actual Titantron video is Street Fighter IV inspired too (loops repeatedly as they wrestling intro’s generally do).

You may also be aware of Daigo Umehara. A Japanese video game player who is one of the greatest Street Fighter players on the planet (some may argue he is the greatest). If you want to know more about Daigo, you may want to check out THIS video feature on him. He became sponsored by MadCatz in April, and MadCatz will be consulting with him to create the next line of Fight Sticks later this year.
Daigo had yet another great match up with the also highly respected Street Fighter player “Justin Wong” in April at Capcom’s LA Fight Club tournament. If you’re a big fan of the games you owe it to yourself to watch both parts of the video.

I was also playing my PS3 copy of Super Street Fighter IV the other week and noticed I unlocked something for “home”. I did some googling which didn’t turn up many results, but it seems the “Trespass” T-shirt which is what I unlocked, was for completing Arcade mode on Medium or higher without using a continue. I’m pretty sure that is the only HOME unlock for SSFIV, although interestingly there isn’t any “Avatar” awards in the 360 version
. I also here that Street Fighter IV (vanilla) had some HOME unlocks too, although personally I only have SFIV for the 360. Photo of the “Trespass” Tee below.
