Anyone ever notice how Daigo went from original color scheme ryu to alternate costume ryu and then to evil ryu? Mans had a whole anime arc across the runtime of sf4 and I love it
Man I remember when I was in high school and I got my hands on SF4. All the hype, the youtube videos, EVO, the matches with friends, the PS3 ranking system, man that was a great time. This definitely has more HEART!
Holy I remembered when Infiltration just started counterpicking everyone, he played every character at such a high tier level it was crazy. There was plenty of stuff that was ridiculous in this game but I miss it and love it so much more than SFV, goodnight sweet prince.
You know a fighting game is good when you can watch an hour long highlight compilation of it and 9/10 times you're smiling after a clip finishes because it's just that good. The 1/10 times are demons being landed and you completely lose your shit
One of the coolest things in fighting games is when you watch a character specialist do shit you couldn't even imagine and in many cases things you can't do if you try. It's like the character was a cocoon waiting to hatch until the right player touched it.
15:59 "You beat Daigo? We post on IRC: You are the best Bipson." Even in the late naughts, IRC was niche. I wonder how many people even know what Chris is talking about lol.
I like how every player had a separate identity in this game Digos the master Ryu momochi Master Ken tokido master akuma smug Dudley ect ect and infiltration was the fucken chameleon lol
Street Fighter 4 truly is a unique game for sure. Not only the game itself with the variety of characters, single player content, different fighting mechanics, the art style, and the music but the hype the community had surrounding it compared to its sequel. And going back to watch these older videos really makes me feel nostalgic especially when it comes to tournaments. Definitely the climax of the series
Every single top 8 match in Evo2015 for Street fighter 4 is absolutely stunning. Truly fitting for the final EVO tournament SFIV appear on the main stage.
A real tribute to this game what changed my life forever. I have no words to thanks this game. I have played between 2009-2017. Unfortunately I don't play fighting games anymore, because his successor is a big failure. Anyway thank you Capcom
i'm the same, I was living in tokyo when sf4 hit arcades in 2008, played the game for years, sf5 came out, played it for 30 hours at launch, gave up and never played it again, the game is boring and still boring to this day. I don't play any fighters anymore because when sf4 died the genre died for me.
I played when I was 9 years old and man my first street fighter so bittersweet to see so many hype moments I just hope 6 can capture the same emotion and excitement
What I noticed is high level characters were high level because the execution it took to do their combos especially in tournaments. In SF4 you didn't see anyone else playing Adon the way Gamerbee did. No one played Dudley the way Smug did either. Sako was good with Evil Ryu and even won a tournament with him against Xian in the Grand Finals but he'll never have the moment Daigo did at Stunfest 15. Everyone had their own way of expressing themselves with their character. Even in mirror matches you could tell which player was which. SF5 has combos everyone can do. But SF4 had combos and gameplay that made that characters playstyle exclusive to that player. You had to grind for months maybe a year to get that good, not just sit in the lab for 2 days learning the combos.
@@acecun6202 Sure, SF 6 is a much better online game (when the stupid matchmaking doesn’t give you a wi-fi warrior *smirk*) but outside of that from the character roster, ost, stages, meta, depth etc it PALES BIG TIME to SF 4 series of games.
@@ibelieveinlove9943 SF4 wasn’t as big as you think it was, they literally milked three or four different versions out of it at new game prices and extra characters. The original SF4 roster was not that big
@@acecun6202 Yeah, like how SF V was milked via several different versions LOL. Don’t worry, SF VI will get milked too. Keep the laughable revisionist history to yourself. SF 4 is the biggest SF has ever been. It sold around 2 million copies during launch week (it took SF VI nearly a month to reach the same number of sales lol). It is the best selling SF game (sales of all versions combined). SF 4’s character roster wasn’t big? It had a bigger roster than SF 2, SF III, SF V and VI. 25 characters at launch. Get your facts straight before talking nonsense🤓
Notice how happy they were if they managed to defeat Daigo. It's a pleasure to play against him, let alone to defeat him in a tournament. That Beast is really a phenomenon...
2:20 is why this is a superior game to sf5. Pure technical skill and patience won him that match. No v trigger bullshit, no dash spam. Hype Comebacks that you have to work for.
@@iishyxvietxboyii1 played sf5 a grand total of 30 hours in 5 year, the game is absolute garbage, I played thousands of hours of sf4. its so sad that usf4 was killed off for it
14:44 damn no handshake fuudo was salty 54:51 yeah i'd think about quitting the game too dawg man i forgot how good sanfords oni was, all his clips are great
Most legendary events: Xian’s Gen Gamerbee’s Adon Pongkoo’s Seth (double perfect on Daigo) Valle’s Hugo Infiltration counterpicking PR Rog with HAKAN 😂
>Onisan challenges Poongko by taking off his shirt >Poongko reluctantly obliges >Onisan instantly and decidedly gets perfected and then bashed u l t r a s t r e e t f i g h t e r o o f
He doesn't like any of the games actually on the market, idon't know if he's still active in the community, but yes, he was one of the best human being in this community
@KDA (G) IDLE well yea, cygames wanna push GBF versus hard, so they demolished their SF team aka daigo, infexious, gamerbee, PR balrog, amd 1 more i forgot.
Watching this for the nostalgia. I don't care how good or bad SF4 may or may not have been. What I can tell you though is that being in the FGC at this time was the peak of entertainment and fun. It was like an unholy mishmash of WWE meets anime energy. I miss browsing Shoryuken and reading tech mixed with drama every day, take me back.
sf5 was trash out the door and still trash, the game is so dumbed down anyone can be good at it. I miss the skill and execution required to play usf4 at the highest level
1 hour video with the best moments of SFIV at least 30 minutes are from gamerbee getting eaten, jeez, i forgot how bad i used to feel for him, the dude was so good, but never at that level to win when it counted

This isn't the early 2000s or 1900s anymore bro get with the times 🤷 sorry that everything is going streamline now and it's not just hard copies anymore. But everyone just prefer things to be digital nowadays I guess 🤷 they say it's easier for the economy

and his top tier yun villain phase
remember when everyone played this game non stop and the quality on youtube was so bad

This game was so hype. This game offers so much space for creativity...and surprises!
Best fighter ever, and that’s coming from someone who has been around since SFII.
Easily better than V. Let’s hope VI is great.
Miss SF4 a lot
Holy I remembered when Infiltration just started counterpicking everyone, he played every character at such a high tier level it was crazy.
There was plenty of stuff that was ridiculous in this game but I miss it and love it so much more than SFV, goodnight sweet prince.
started counterpicking his wife
@@reesespuffs4412 Not like this 😂 Umeharaga !!! 😂😂😂
LostByInsanity infiltration admitted to abusing his wife
@@uwabamiJohnny whoa really? Damn.
Why not keep playing USF4 if it's so good? People still play much older titles competitively.
1 hour+ of footsies here we go
You know a fighting game is good when you can watch an hour long highlight compilation of it and 9/10 times you're smiling after a clip finishes because it's just that good.
The 1/10 times are demons being landed and you completely lose your shit
dude, this gave me chills, i saw like the 98% of these. Thank you very much, sfIV was a really good game for me!
Glad you enjoyed!
Yeah, the FGC was seems to have been in a different place back then. Wish I had been watching those days.
D Bee same man
31:52 I play MK primarily, but this is easily my favorite FGC moment P E R I O D
Ah the good ol' days
One of the coolest things in fighting games is when you watch a character specialist do shit you couldn't even imagine and in many cases things you can't do if you try.
It's like the character was a cocoon waiting to hatch until the right player touched it.
Yeah, especially with the more complex characters. I could never play Gen in a million years, but watching him played at a high level is so hype.

usf4 is so much more hype and fun to watch then sf5
Than is so much more correct and fun to use rather than "then".
People say this on every sf4 video, it's fucking annoying
Obviously.
@@terrydavis146 Also obviously.
@@terrydavis146 it's because they're not good at SF5.
seeing this takes me back to my days in Twitch Chat... i can remember seeing most of these clips live and reacting with chat.. great times.

Man you can appreciate how difficult it was to make a comeback. Those were like at least 2 correct reads while avoiding getting hit. Damn.
For this game can I truly say that all of us brought back the meaning of time and technique. Not just as a community, but as a family. SF4.
Every single top 8 match in Evo2015 for Street fighter 4 is absolutely stunning. Truly fitting for the final EVO tournament SFIV appear on the main stage.
SF4 is so much more fun to watch than SFV is
watching paint dry is more exciting than sf5
like half this video is just Daigo beating Gamerbee at 10% health
The time when watch tournaments of SF had real hype
A real tribute to this game what changed my life forever. I have no words to thanks this game. I have played between 2009-2017. Unfortunately I don't play fighting games anymore, because his successor is a big failure. Anyway thank you Capcom

When times were good. Hope we can get back to this level of hype with VI
Games too expensive to make now.
Too many fingers in pies.
Looks like we may. SF6 is looking interesting
SF6 is fuckin trash😒
SF6 is arguably my favorite game in the series currently. A master class.
@@acecun6202 ur trippin
Happy 10th Anniversary Street Fighter IV.
Poongko was an absolute legend in and out of the game
SF4 give us the best figthing game era in the e-sports, so much big names, so much big moments
“It won’t be enough!!!........ IT IS ENOUUUUGGGHHHH!!!”😂
Say in one exclamation mark on lowercase letters, not three, you rude!
Wow. I almost forgot how hype Street Fighter was. thanks for this compilation.
I played when I was 9 years old and man my first street fighter so bittersweet to see so many hype moments I just hope 6 can capture the same emotion and excitement
I think that SF4 had more "soul" than SF5.
Not really
@@MichaelHarto The SF5 era is less then a shadow of what SF4 & Marvel offered the FGC.

JL Mcleod holy fuck if i could quadruple like this comment i would cus i all i see here are FACTS
@@TotalTuxedo Meh combos aren’t easy to pull off in a fight if they were everyone would do them
Classic SF!
remember watching most of these live with the stream monsters
Undoubtedly, the best street fighter ever
I gotta give it up to SF6 rn. That game is so satisfying and feels so damn smooth.

Infiltration's decapre was a treat to watch.
I still remember when gamberbee dropped that Adon combo against momochi around 4:00 inspired me to use him lol
God i miss the good ol days of the SF4 era. It's way more entertaining than SF5
ウル4はトッププレイヤーのマジかよ！？ってプレイいっぱいあって見る分には最高に楽しかった
Notice how happy they were if they managed to defeat Daigo. It's a pleasure to play against him, let alone to defeat him in a tournament. That Beast is really a phenomenon...

The only thing ruining Sf5 is the cheap characters.
*SFV,but yes I agree
Ultra combo itself is a comeback mechanic
Probably the only SF4 video i ever need to watch for the rest of my life?
The days of SF4 and MVC3. The HYPE days
Good times...
0:33 jesus. that guy’s mic 😂😂😂
I watched this on Christmas day last year, 2018. You bet your ass I'm watching it again on Christmas day this year.
I’ll never forget Smug Dudley
The more I watch this....the more I reslly feel sorry for Gamerbee...The guy was so good with Adon but Daigo was always his kryptonite...
Gamerbee came 2nd a lot...
GOD I miss this game!
Commentator: "are you kidding me? Are you kidding me?"
Daigo: "am i a joke to you?"
If u take a shot everytime Xian gets hit with a raging demon, you're gonna have a bad day 🤣
so much feeling watching this... i miss sfiv hype
When I talk about SF4 , Daigo Umehara (Ryu) was amazing
Anyone remember the 3DS edition
I had it lmaoo
I remember so many of these moments, Street fighter 4 was the best fighting game ever made.
Excellent compilation video. God bless SF4!
This game is so goddamn good. I've never loved a fighting game like I loved street fighter 4. Sf5 is beyond shit

I feel like Poongko taking his shirt off is like Hakan oiling up.
Gotta have respect for the losing side for acting so cool.

cant compare sfv to sf4, the skill requirement to play this game at a high level is just crazy
OMG this gives me goosebumps
Soooo much better than sfv, better to watch too
Gamerbee Adon combo was ridiculous. It probably was a Marvel combo
Please tell me u r making one of these for Marvel. I would love to see it
Absolutely! Though its going to be quite long
THE LONGER THE BETTER!!!
