Ouch, looks like Famitsu has already scooped Capcom’s big character reveal for this Friday six times over. Scans from the latest issue of the Japanese magazine have already leaked onto the web, revealing that the original eight characters from Street Fighter II — Dhalsim, E. Honda, Guile, Blanka, Zangief, Chun-Li, Ryu, and Ken — will all be returning for Street Fighter IV. Not much has changed in the looks or the moves of the characters it seem. E. Honda is still looks like he’s wrapped in a beach towel, Dhalsim’s arms still stretch, and Zangief’s chest hair still looks like it should be studied in a lab. Hopefully, whatever Capcom has to show off this Friday will be something different.

The one thing that hasn’t been revealed yet is whether I will be as awesome with Blanka as I was 15 years ago
Maybe they’re going to reveal a new character?
ummm.. they already revealed the new characters in Japanese magazines.
Doesn’t a leak mean that some information that is not publicly available has escaped the confines of secrecy? This is a 4 page spread that looks like it came from a press release from Capcom.
