Okay this question sucks. But. Will a single player mode be available in the future for fighting ex layer? I don’t really play online for anything anymore

Right now it sounds like they maybe working on it. Till then, there is a kumite mode tucked in the options in Training that should suffice till then (http://shoryuken.com/2018/06/30/want-to-play-against-the-cpu-an-arcade-mode-may-be-in-the-works-for-fighting-ex-layer-meanwhile-try-kumite-mode/). I'm sorry it took awhile to reply back, but I wanted to come through and see if arcade mode was even promised, which I couldn't find any evidence that it was.

What do you think is the likelihood of getting urban reign in some form on the ps4?

Highly Doubtful. For whatever reason, rather in a rush to port, all of their PS2 fighting games on the PS4, Sony’s sloth-like process of porting stuff really has no rhyme or rationale. This sucks because there could have been a lot of good stuff that could have synergetic from a marketing standpoint with current titles: Hey Tekken 7 is coming out. BOOM! Tekken 5 remastered for PS4. Street Fighter V? BOOM! SF 15th Anniversary Collection! Soul Calibur 6? BOOM! Soul Calibur III. Etc... 

So with Urban Reign, damn good game, but it unlike not only due Sony’s random qualifications for the PS2 Remasters but because it really doesn’t have a modern anything to attach itself too.

Oh hey before I forget, I did a podcast with @ikerobo. It was great. Please give it a listen when he posts the link.

I think i just miss capcom games looking like anime. They'll probably never go back at this point right?

No and yes. No Capcom fighting games won't go back to "anime". It was great but it was expensive to make with little in returns. Capcom's 2 year development cycle doesn't gel well with that. However, Capcom hasn't complete forgotten how to do that. Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 is a good example. Say what you want about how the game plays, but man is that game expressive as hell. Its possible, given the right budget and time frame, that Capcom could go down that route.

ikerobo replied to your post: Glad you like the art! Hope the birthday was(is ?)...

Just wanted to show my appreciation for your blogging and get some drawing prompts done early for practice while I had the time. Lots of my friends have birthdays around this time of year so I get backed up

OK I see. Well now its the best early B-Day gift I had and certainly something that helped lift my spirits during a trouble sometime. Thank you again.

Glad you like the art! Hope the birthday was(is ?) good! Sorry if this is the wrong way to say you're welcome as my tumblr etiquette is terrible

You're fine but yesterday wasn't my birthday. I'm sorry. I am not quite sure if I said something like it if was but my birthday isn't until May 22nd.

Which one character for your birthday sketch?

Huh? I don’t know. Maybe Cammy.

Update: Apparently you can also get Street Fighter 5 for $15 at Target. You will require a free downloadable app in order to take advantage of ...

@ikerobo and everyone else, this is kind of a good deal for SFV....

Kind of. After you download the shit ton of patches for the game, your still left with 6 characters that you can either earn by playing a lot of matches (you may have enough for maybe ONE character by playing all of the offline stuff. MAYBE) or by the season pass for $30.

So its really $15-20 on the low end. $50-60 if you decide to get the DLC. I guess its a better deal than what it currently is?
