Street Fighter IV Commercial To Air During Real Fighting
Capcom revealed today that the first TV commercial for the hotly-anticipated Street Fighter IV will debut during the CBS EliteXC Saturday Night Fights mixed martial arts event on Saturday, May 31, at 9:00 PM EST. During the show, which will apparently feature "internet phenomenon" Kimbo Slice battling James "The Colossus" Thompson, viewers can see a 60 second trailer and 30 second television spots. I have no idea who those people are, but how can you not love someone named Kimbo Slice? (Even if The Colossus — pictured — is way hotter)
Immediately following the broadcast, the trailer will appear on the newly-redesigned StreetFighter.com, along with the chance to pre-order the game for Xbox 360 or PS3 exclusively through GameStop. Pre-ordering will get you a limited edition collectable Street Fighter Tribute artbook, illustrated by comic book and videogame artists. And since it's apparently the trendy thing to do, the site currently has a timer counting down to the release of the new trailer.
I'd say too bad the Wii lost out on getting a port of Street Fighter IV, but maybe they'll still be happy enough to have Brawl...
