This game had a lot of jank, stupid stuff like vortex but I still love this game. I do hope that this game gets 1 more evo (like mvc2 this year) and maybe it will have a crazy tournament like how 3rd strike had last uear
I can’t believe we talk about this game as if it was history. I feel like it was yesterday we were watching vids of arcade cabinets of this game in Japan drooling over it and waiting for it to come out.
Why wouldn't you like sf4 it's the heart of the fgc. All roads in the fgc lead back to this game. It gave us legendary moments players and shaped all the fighting games that came after it. I can't stand the disrespect from these kids who wouldn't even make the top 100 players. They play one game and think themselves experts. Im ranting now but the point I want to make is put some respect on sf4's name your games wouldn't exist without it. Where else you gonna see some shit like this 3:57
Love how commentary dissolved into straight nostalgia 🤣🤣we gettin old, Ladies n Gents @TampaNeverSleeps Appreciate you not chopping this one up too much, the trips down memory lane are so welcome!
Man, sf4 was insane, OS, crouch techs, oki, 1 frame links, and character specific combos and setups. It was always exciting to watch. Sf5 and Sf6 are cool but doesn't come close to how good sf4 was. We have some jank stuff like Elena healing and oki loops but the skill expression was insane.
yeah, it was a game that had EVERYTHING, that was its blessing and its curse. I really like being able to shimmy throws in the later editions, and im glad crouch tech is gone(OS's in general tbh), and Ultras are an insane comeback mechanic. But the characters always ended up playing so differently in the hands of the players. They let you do a lot in this game and had moves with so much power, 2f SPD, meterless reversals, linking lights into heavies, invulnerability on backdashes and focus attacks were such crazy tools by todays standards. It hurt the balance a bit, but everything cool does.
Man the nostalgia of this game, this brings back memories to trying to do the most difficult of combo trials with some of these characters. I know people remiss wanting to see SF3 characters in 6 but damn it I want to see some returning SF4 characters as well. C.Viper, Hakan, El Feurte and my boi Rufus. SPACE OPERA SYMPHONY!
this game is a ton of fun to watch, i can see why this game caught everyone by storm when it came out, i personally wouldnt want to do 1f links but this game seems really cool
@@dudubungles9679 you realize the guy he lost too was a dude he use to beat 3-0 easily back when SF4 was being actively played. Punk hasn't touched this game in literal years, and he still got 9th, again.
@dangerous stfu scrub. Hes n over glorified scrub n 5 n 6 that hold ur hand. True pros came from sf4. Theres no such thing as a 5 or 6 pro. The game LITERALLY holds UR hand
I wish nuckledu could be consistent in sf6 like he is in sf4. Imagine if he could be winning tns or can opener every single week, or at least making top 2 or 3. That'd be great for him. Alas as we all know, consistency isn't possible in sf6. You need a slower game with no ability to force rps and neutral paced in a way that machabos neutral rps fades away.
Lets talk about real pain. Like how I lost to a weak ass Gief in the GameStops tournament bc his feet during lariat was sometimes invisible in vanilla. Smh 🤦🏾♂️ 😒
@@theopulentone1650just say UR bad kid and need UR hand held cus UR not good in 4 ok kid? Not shame in ADMITTING UR bad. Theres weirdos getting married everyday no need to hide that shame n needing UR hand held in 5 n 6
Never had fun fighting then twins, Cammy and her sister or the evil versions of the shotos but I'm not whining about it. All n all it was a great diversity of characters everyone can enjoy even the unpopular ones. The Wazzler would know.😆
@MeechModding Well unfortunately not all triple A games have that form of liberty nowadays like KOFXV, here's hoping SNK's new game Fatal Fury don't suffer that same fate.
REAL SF. ALL U SF5 AND 6 SCRUBS SUK IT. FEAST UR EYES OPEN REAL SKILL REQUIRED IN THIS GAME. NO GIMMICKS THEBGAME GIVES U NO HELP STRAIGHT FRAME DATA SND KNOWLEDGE!!!
@@swaggod1sorry UR fav hand held fighter 5 n 6 games arent as popular as 4 n sorry ur bad at 4 u love trash versions of sf lol. U will never understand cus UR a noob. Classic character music, 1 frame links showcases true skill combos reads ..ur just mad UR bad kid n love booty 5 n 6 lol.
You cannot tell the history of the FGC without this game. Even if you don't like it, you can't deny it's importance.
Kids who get mad at this game were kids who were never good
This game had a lot of jank, stupid stuff like vortex but I still love this game.

So glad I got to experience this era. My first tournaments. My first team. The first time I truly got gud. Long live sf4

4 hours, really?!?... damn, video's too short.
Well the sf5 one should be 5 hours
The roster in this game is unmatched

@@Hawko1313it took so so long to unlearn invulnerable backdash, I fear I may never truly rehabilitate
I agree, sf4 was so exciting.
gawd damn man the speed of this game is just so fast man
this better be a weekly thing!
Where are my damn 09ers at?! Used to play this game all the damn time after 12 hour shifts.
C Viper all damn day on all 3 platforms!
👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼 Ken/bison player from vanilla to super.
We used to make fun of the '09ers, and now they're the old dudes. Goddamn.
This and 3s are the games I always wished I was good at

You still watch usf4 footage over sf5 or 6? “To this day.”🗣
I hope they make a remastered with rollback, id be playing that all day.
Jump back air fireball is absolutely devious work
I heckin' love SF4 along with 3rd Strike ❤
Oh shit, that's Jchen and the Wazzler commentating SFIV
Finally a good street fighter game! ❤️❤️❤️
Other commentator's must defeat Chen Wong to stand a chance
😂😂😂😂.
I gotta comment just to boost the algorithm, I loved the SFIV era
El Fuerte is one of the coolest vsfighting characters with Maxi from Soulcalibur 6 !
Lets go dude hell yea. im sure these wont be regular but would love to see more
This game is soooo hype to watch. Except whenever Elena is being played, at least.
This tourney was dope af!
I wish the ye old streams had this kind of resolution/bitrate.
Thx for this!
No…. Way… I’m too LIT THE NOSTALGIA 🎉🎉🎉🎉
The only video/reason I subscribed to this channel. Thanks for showcasing REAL sf and not garbage
this game is a ton of fun to watch, i can see why this game caught everyone by storm when it came out, i personally wouldnt want to do 1f links but this game seems really cool
U dont want to do 1 frame links cus UR bad
This is such a cool tournament, I loved seeing Du's Guile back in SF4.
One of the best street fighter games ever
THE
James chen?? Justin?? SF4???? please I need more of this!!
They're doing this on delay based net code?
Iirc the rollback mod doesn’t have lobbies or anyway to watch a match you’re not in so delay is the only option for a tourny like tns
@ damn sounds terrible but the tournament is entertaining to watch
Best skill expression of any street fighter 💯
Spoiler Shield
Capcom, remaster/re-release this game!
Nostalgia hitting like a truck right now, damn. Good times!
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, this game is pretty good
3:20 YEP! That was moment when I knew the FGC had the absolute best crowd. I was laughing and feeling so proud at the same moment.
Lowkey my favorite sf ngl
Dang, JC is my favorite commentator. Takes me back to vanilla and Super SF4
No hakan made me sad
I wasn’t able to make it 🤷
41:06 Loved watching Du's Guile combos.
Finally, a good game!
Justin and James commentating SF4? Take my money.
i was almost sick when the commentators reminded me of this games netcode halfway through a el fuerte match. i forgot how bad it could be
4:00 one of the most disrespectful punishes I’ve ever seen 💀
Lets not forget zangeif was a total character in usf4, then he didnt have most of his moveset in 5.
One of the major downgrades in sf history
Ah yes the iconic geif move. Red focus. they called it that because they knew the Red cyclone would use it more than anyone.
I just reinstalled this recently. My favorite fighting game!
Nice to watch Lionheart's Sagat again.
Can you guys hold an Omega SF4 tournament next?
Used to work for SolidxPands , fun to see his bison get shut down
Bro how did you get these commentators/players?! I'm suprised daigo vs gamerbee wasn't in the bracket
TNS already paving the way for sf4 to be the 2026 evo capcom retro game
you could not have gotten a better duo to comment on this nostalgia of a god tier game maaan! jus wish there was some oni representation too
Du out here with his whole pokemon squad
would be a fun format to pick any version should do it.
Oh yes, let give the players vanilla sagat, whats the worst it could happen
Love the SF4 content.
I haven't been so excited to watch a tournament in a long time. Modern SF is so slow.
I almost wanna cry with joy 😢
The best modern era SF????????
Sf4 is goated just like chess
I saw smug trying to stream this i thought he was joking
Viper combos look so cool!
Lets go!
Bring these tournaments back but we have to work together as a community. Constant donations. Avg $1000 pot
Omg welcome back sf4
Long Live Street Fighter 4
Watching punk try to play a real street fighter is adorable
lmfaooo😂😂 punk was actually pretty solid back then
iirc he still has thousands of hours in sf4 as well lol
@luckii_shots to bad it didn't help with those 1f links

Justin, please adjust your levels so you're not clipping on every word. I can't watch your videos anymore because the audio is so painful.
Ahhh yes a good sf!!!!
This is the best sf ever made fight me 😐

Sf4 is my favorite sf
Smug where u at brah!
Hell yeah!

Santa Claus was late this year but I don't mind
Best game ever.
Dont have to pretend 5 and 6 are good anymore ❤❤❤
Eh, I like 6. I just don't like what they are doing with sf6 DLC wise.

bring back sf4!
I miss the hell outta this game, except for Guile, Sagat, Rufus, and Honda. Never had fun fighting those clowns. Was hoping to see an Adon player.
Add El Fuerte to that list.
@@theopulentone1650 lol El Fuerte is one of my characters, Fuerte for SF6!🤣

larga vida al 4
Sf4❤
Damn this shit looks amateur like... no combos hella dropped combos
Ring rust
How come my man SmugDaBeast was not in this??
We're in 2025 and the whole tournament in training stage? What a shame... 😢
@@MeechModding the most casual complaint lol
@dudubungles9679 I have some PTSD since the PS3 era & I'm pretty sure I would beat you in a set 😁
Blame SFIV netcode at the time.
@@akilcharles3473That's why I'm saying in 2025. Nowadays the netcode and connection are good enough for displaying the other stages 😢😢

Jump back fireball with akuma, lets remove it! - capcom
What? Just say u suk kid
Nooo Tampa now your gonna attract all of the annoying SF4 elitists :<
Sick gameplay tho
Please don't use the Lord's name in vain
Dj vest quit out? LMAOOOOOOOO easy pickings
He didn’t quit out
who tf is meyer? Du's akuma is not great even ive beaten it with a character thats my bottom five or worse prob
Why u all fight in a white cube? it looks so boring. pick proper stages
They letting SF6 easymode them to where they can't play the harder combos
I can’t believe I played this game…and really didn’t plink 😂
I've bodied DJVest in usf4..
Why are you talking that trash to my dude Vest like that? At least he enter for this tournament unlike you bum 😂
Cammy was really bad? Yeah, tell that to Alioune LMAO
Zoning players = trash
