-The producer is going to be Yoshinori Ono. His previous works include: Street Fighter Alpha, Street Fighter III and Capcom Fighting Revolution. We'll forgive him for that last one. Maybe.
-Online play will be included, however, I'm always really leery of online modes in games where frame-specific precision is key.
-Similar to the Street Fighter II games, the graphics will be toon-shaded.
- The gameplay will be in 2D while the graphics are in 3D, but the camera angle will be fixed. This pretty much answers all those rumors out there. Look guys, it's Street Fighter. It's gonna be a 2D fighter. EX never existed. Cough cough.
-Capcom wants to bring as many characters back from the Street Fighter II series as possible. Fei Long please!
-The story takes place between Street Fighter II Turbo and Street Fighter III. I'm not really sure what this entails, any experts out there want to shed some light on this?
-The battle system will be more aggressive and focus more on attacking instead of defending. Maybe now I'll actually win a few rounds now and then.
-A decision has not been made which platform the game will be on, the test version was build on PC.
-Yoshinori Ono assumes the most suitable platforms to be PS2 or NDS. The DS? Really? I really hope he didn't say that. While it does have a large built in market already, even a ported version would lack the tight control scheme that would be needed for a game such like SF.
-Capcom is interested to bring the game to as many platforms as possible, no platform exclusivity.
All I can really say is, I'm freaking excited to get my ass handed to me in a new Street Fighter that's been a long time coming.

There's one main point you failed to include, and I'm disappointed you missed it. I've done my share of research on SFIV and there's something pathetically lacking in your blog post:
"-I really hope they put in a computer assisted mode, because it's obvious that I lack the skills and mentality necessary to play an even remotely decent game of Street Fighter. Seriously, my friend Chris hands me my ass all the time. It's only because I know, like, three moves total. The first move is yelling at the screen, the second is throwing my controller on the floor, and the third one is crying like a pathetic little bitch. Naturally, I've more than mastered the third move."

...Ok, you win. However, don't forget that I know how to unplug your controller when you're not looking.
