IGN Montage - Street Fighter IV: Abel

[eltrio619]

LMAO Abbel Wins! No wonder they replaced him with a new announcer

[ColonelTwisty]

abble wins

hes a real man now

[DaGleese]

when are they going to make a street fighter who uses savate as his technique?

[MrKamshamnida]

Abel is a berserker!

[ICHIBAAAN]

He is French.

Judo

[CASILLAS1g]

Alex vs Abel would be a perfect match

[ChaoticRyan]

Abel Is French. He Is A Hero. He Has A Case of Amnesia. And He Loves Puppies.

[iwanttofight69]

ha sambo mother russia

[ryubaku]

But an add will

[waswillsch]

abel looks like Jean-Claude Van Damme!!

[Verminator4]

I love how Ryu's face slowly goes all "Oh shit" at 0.40.

[mohawkny115]

Stupid ass street fighter 4 announcer, sucks at pronouncing Abel's name. Sounds like he is calling him Apple.

[g4m3r43v3r]

abel: no fancy bullshit magic. pure grapple and throw!! much like zangief.. but hes a big ugly fk

[RILOVINCO]

@g4m3r43v3r i see that u have lost a lot of matches against him...

[porkdemon]

is he russian? he looks like heas wearing a sambo uniform.

[dkfalco76]

@porkdemon french

[Eistea1]

@porkdemon

no abel is french ;)

[jonathan00013889]

"I don't care what the critics say, violence is a beautiful thing!" LMAO!!!

[mike013567]

fuk abel i cant stand his ass....everybody who challenged the computer as abel u know wat im talking about......he does the same bullshit move over nd over lol

[goanyways]

is this ps2???

[CoolFreeWorld]

@goanyways No, PS3, Xbox, or PC.

[goanyways]

@CoolFreeWorld ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!! LOL k. any suggestions which sf is best for ps2 cool? thnx ;)!

[nomickok2]

@goanyways

you can try looking fro marvel vs capcom 2 or street fighter alpha anthology if you want a taste of capcoms goodnes...but you should really upgrade to a new gen console...even if its a wii:)

you can play tatsunoko vs capcom on a wii btw

[goanyways]

wut street fighter is this and is it for ps2??

[09vjblue]

abel is hot LOLZ look at that bulge!!! O_o

[1hitgamer]

LOL im serious if you dont laugh at ryus face at 0:43 something is wring with you

[MalakaiSwift]

I like Abel and everything, but look closely at the video. At 0:42, Abel got a Perfect in round 1. Can you say "STAGED"?

[krossthug]

He does MMA. He automatically wins everything.

[wayness5]

the new able in SSF4 is alot more powerful with his new ultra. i play able all the time, and it just got a lot easier :)

[FabuleuxFab]

Abel is Jerôme Le Banner !!

[spites1]

all I know is he is ABEL to kick a lot of ass

[Goin2MarsBro]

@spites1 nice

[namman11]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAa bel?

I thought it was

Ayyyyyyyyyyyyy bel

[SevRyan]

Abel is cool. and Kinda looks nice :D

[theTROOPER1945]

im thinking about trying him out, but im not to good at setting up his ultra to where they cant block it. i want a combo similar to ryu's shoryuken cancel that makes the opponent fall into the ultra. Is there anything like that for abel?

[darkspirit1973]

@theTROOPER1945 Crouching Hard Punch to Ultra works wonders. Just time it right.

[ShadowCrowX]

OH YEAH I forgot how badass he was. Can't believe I disregarded him in SSFIV

[BSAARedfield]

LMAO at Ryu's face 0:42

[jose2090]

He has...ehm....white eyes ????

[SuperiorHawke]

No, they're very light blue.

[xSLeviNx]

@s13ara lol thats true. He reminds me so much of the greatest fighter of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). In my opinion combat sambo is the most complete martial art today. Combining stikes, kicks, grappel, throw, ground game, and submissions. Thats why Fedor Emelianenko is the baddest or greatest fighter that ever lived on the face of this planet.

[Dothraki]

@xSLeviNx Fedor isn't the Last Emperor for nothing :)

[yungS12]

abel is not human he is the same thing as seth notice he has same head shape same hieght same wieght and all those scars are marks from when the shadaloo base was destroyed and abel was spiacialy created but doesnt remember anything

[s13ara]

or hes a rip off of fedor

[yungS12]

@s13ara yea that 2

[pepOnshow]

@s13ara actually some of the fighters in SF are based on real life martial artist like abel is fedor fei long is bruce lee and el fuerte is based on a mexican wrestler called mistico

[Oneilius]

From what i read Guile thinks he means Charlie's SB when he actually means Seth's SB. Idk it could be either side of the story they both kinda make sense, maybe ur right when u say capcom wants it to seem a certain way. Hopefully they'll shed more light on Abel's story/background in the new SF4 coming out in 2010.

[yungS12]

its gonna be SSF4 super street fighter 4

[xxlimpyleg]

thats a good point about it being seths sonic boom i never thought of that

[sonOFsephiroth07]

@bobbydylanio

First off SF IV has poor AI for a few characters meaning duh..they will preform the same move more than twice. This is what we call a broken AI. Zangief and Honda are guilty of this. Super Street Fighter comfirmed that the AI will be improved and characters will be more equal but will still have their respective advantages/disadvantages.

[xmileena]

Rushing a character with a command throw without a plan is your problem, idiot

[bobbydylanio]

so why is this an issue with one character?

[jeneizsolt]

Yes he does :) Btw i am not a pro i just love SF...and o heard people say that Abel is for advanced players 'cause you can't spam and he has tough combos. not true! Abel is the only character with wich i had completed all trials......and i have the pc version and use the keyboard....:D

[SENNDRAGON]

Abel OWNS

[polm1111]

abel is a robot !

[gigagrip]

Abel's a badass character. I hope he gets included in future games.

[bhibatsu]

lmao "I don't care what the critics say, violence is a beauuuuuuuutiful thing!"

jesus christ they said that? hahaha

[bhibatsu]

He's modelled after Fedor Emelianenko, undefeated world MMA champion for 9 years.

[ArvaF]

He's my new favorite. I always play with him, even if I lose most of the times.

[theponytheory]

able is kens son. i think ken and chun li had him around the time SF2 Turbo came out, he didn't like the fireballs that his parents used to fight he thought it was "pussy" so he learned judo then joined some kind of MMA school where he learned to kick ass. His parents disowned him for learning judo and not shodo, so he became a cutter which is why he has all those scars. Also he's clinically depressed and on a lot of medication, he misses his family.

[jamesrick2007]

i could agree with that, fireballs are weak lol

[Cherrypoppins18]

funny ass shit dude, your story would have been way more interesting than the canon.

[SeoulMan]

I like Ryu's jaw dropping reaction there

[sjda123]

THE BEST CHARACTER FOR ME =) he is BADASS !!! not like other characters with their Hadoken or Shoryu-ken ... hes unique

[maitlan]

Abel is probably Bison's son.

[somonesetusupthebomb]

abel is charlie

[Renceau]

Charlie is not French.

So Abel is not Charlie.

[CASILLAS1g]

That's right, but Charlie could actually be that man that cured Abel while he was injured. I think that in SSF4 we will know to answers to all questions...

[Oneilius]

charlie isnt the man that pulled abel outta the building & helped him back to recovery. When he tells guile that he's seen his sonic boom before he's talking about seth's sonic boom not charlie's

[xmileena]

no that's what they want you to think, it's charlie's sonic boom he remembers, not seth's, because he doesn't remember his time in shadaloo at all, only what occurred after, and since he wouldn't have been around seth after being pulled out of the base he wouldn't recognize the sonic boom as belonging to seth

[Oneilius]

@xmileena --- yeah but he still has images in his head & nightmares involving shadaloo memries that he wakes up from. U might be right the sonic boom he tells Guile he recognizes might be Charlie's & not Seth's but he seems like he's definately hunting Seth or Bison or "a particular member of shadaloo" as he puts it. Which means he has some recollection of shadaloo.

[CASILLAS1g]

@xmileena Actually it could be Charlie's, Seth's or Remy's (SF3rd Strike)

[jamesrick2007]

lol i think he's a failed experiment or something

[johnnyvann]

able is seths brother...an experiment that got away. thats all there is to it really

[subslament]

Abel is Fedor Emelianenko

Sambo

[Cherrypoppins18]

that explains his huge oddly colored black penis, as opposed to the rest of his pasty white body.

[Riggidig]

You have to give props to CapCom for actually getting the name right. Before watching this video I always thought Abel's name was pronounced like the traditional "Ay-bil", as in "Cain and Abel", but then I watched this and heard the pronouncer say it as "Ah-bil".

It's still not 100% correct French mind you. It should really be pronounced "Ah-bell", according to a Frenchman I spoke with last week and asked how one would pronounce it properly in French.

[mikedjmix]

This guy looks and fights just like fedor emelianenko

[AmericanTaxAvoider]

He looks like he was modeled after Fedor Emelianenko.

[maitlan]

Who?

[Riggidig]

Apart from the Ultra Combo at the end Abel's basically getting his ass handed to him in every scene, WTH?

[bdogrular]

@Riggidig LOL

[Deadpool3E]

What's the theme used in this trailer?

[Ramgord]

the announcer says when ryu is ko.- i dont care what critics say violence is beatuful thing jajaja

[Unfaadable21]

[xxLatinKillaxx]

abel is BADASS!!!!!

[bloodsoldierZ]

Abel has more moves than that. Anyway, where's his evil brother Cain at?

[TehComs]

I think that "Cain" is actually Seth, but some of you probably saw through that symbolism a long time ago...still, I think it's funny that the (annoying!) announcer pronounced his name like "Apple". Hilarious!

[alegdro]

ABEL PRACTICE SAMBO ART RUSA

[gandehatti]

i main guile but have to admit abels a beast but not just in this video lol

[sorrow12593]

His Ultra Combo sort of reminds me of Captain America's Final Justice. But still, Abel is cool.

[SpadeHand]

@sorrow12593 Don't tell anyone, he's actually Captain America.

[RotaryPoweredRX]

If anyone wants to fight a GOOD Abel player, hit me up and ill give you my tag, i get my 360 back in a couple of days.

[RotaryPoweredRX]

whoever is playing as Abel in this video has a lot to learn.

when you do his change of direction and land the first hit, it is unnecessary to kick rather than just punch,punch. usually the low kick will be blocked then you will get hit almost every time. this video also lacked a lot of his combos.

also, the guy who says he is a Ryu clone is pretty stupid. This character couldnt be any further from shoto.

[SlRDancealot]

Couldn't agree more

[SlRDancealot]

Wait, there's nothing to "agree" about, is there?

It's fact, people.

[RotaryPoweredRX]

Whether its a fact or not a fact, he still has his opinion to agree or not to agree.

[SlRDancealot]

That's me saying I agree, fyi.

If you thought I replied to someone elses comment, that is.

[RotaryPoweredRX]

no, i knew you replied to mine, but you did say there was nothing to agree about. but nvm, its not important :)

[greycarngex]

abel is my favorite character in that game i hate all the other ones i like abels style hes cool like teh tornado throw move

[Anjohl]

Great, another Ryu clone, with a more strength-based style. *yawn*.

What's next, 5-7 palette swaps of the Shotos, MK style?

[pcramirez]

LOL, how is he a Ryu clone? He's nowhere close to a shoto.

[Balmung102]

Haha wow you're retarded.

[MickieJamesFTW]

Retarded indeed.

[Balmung102]

t-t-totally

high five o/

[marseillesroll]

Because MMA is just like Shotokan karate, am I right?

If you're going to troll, troll intelligently. I suggest you watch UFC matches and read up on MMA.

[tcrippa]

u dont know what the hell youre talkin about

[DevinHades]

Wow, you really must be into sniffing dog crap just like that shit you came up with. Stupid fool.

[malkrow21]

you're calling Abel, a guy who doesn't do the Hadōken or the Shōryū-ken, a Ryu clone.

you're calling Abel, a guy who unlike Ken doesn't dress up like Ryu, a Ryu clone.

you're calling Abel, a guy who's fighting style is totally different, a Ryu clone.

can you say "RETARD"?

[bobplatypus]

@malkrow21 Ryutard

[chocolatecakebunny]

abels a beast

[Ryumal15]

lol at ryu's face

Ryu: OMG!

[Tigamer]

The PWNED face is too funny to see when an Ultra is launched ^^.

[GtownBigBootyLover]

Chun Li's thighs thick as hell lol

[youngromeHLBG]

has abel the most muscular arms in this game i dont know

[xxlimpyleg]

lets give it up for that Abel technology!

[VampyricalCurse]

Haha Ryu's face. WTF

[IllustriousEvent]

Abel: "It's time to get serious" TORNADO THROW TORNADO THROW TORNADO THROW TORNADO THROW TORNADO THROW WIN HEHEHEHE

[oOIcaro89Oo]

tekken is more more better ^^

[IIDaemonII]

Actually T6 BR is now all full of juggles and isn't like T5:DR(which is way better). But I'm still a Tekken player but I would say Street Fighter IV has a lot to offer :D (My fave char is Abel btw, can't wait to use him ^^,)

[EngulfedINDarkness]

me who is absolutely rubbish at this game n hated it now loves this game coz of abel lol. wat can i say hes a fukin awesome character. most characters are not close combat n u jus gota love that roll, hadouken is completely useless against it :D altho im more of a tekken player,i hav to say that both fighting games are on a similiar lvl, but i still like teken better.cnt wait for numba 6 graphics looks epic but i think it shud b exclusive to ps3 coz tekken need to have graphics that rocks out.

[Chrisxulo]

hahahahaha la cara de Riu 0:43 / 1:12

[elfirrepins]

"I don't care what the critics say... Violence is a beeeeautiful thing!"

[alanlovedog]

he appears to be a sambo fighter - maybe a fedor tribute.

[oggedask]

yea now that you mention it he looks kinda fedor-ish

[hassmann2000]

**by JSP i meant

George St. Pierre (so not J, lol)

[hassmann2000]

Abel is basicslly JSP, like how fei long is bruce lee. lol

[theRoyalty12]

que asko de personaje..

[SecretDimension]

So obviously based on Fedor Emelianenko..

[kleavonbradshaw]

The more you learn to use Abel the more you realize how solid he is.

Great Hi-Low mixup potential with his combos to keep the opposition guessing, and his EX throws have great priority. Use the EX "Crackshot" to overtake fireball spammers with ease.

I'm loving/not loving that his Ultra is just Capt. America's Final Justice rehashed, but take the good with the bad.

[Tikimon400]

In the english voice of this guy he does not have an ounce of a French accent and doesn't seem French at all.

Actually most characters in Street Fighter don't have an accent relitive to their country. And where the hell is a Canadian fighter, eh?

[piruetten]

Where is swedish fighter?

[d3nyd]

Abel does too have a French accent, but it's very slight. He speaks so quietly and his voice is so deep that you can't really tell half the time.

[Hellooli]

This is my fucking character.  such a beast

[taylorx14]

nah man this is my character woot woot abel for the win

[mittROMNEY666]

graphics suck shit. should have been 2d

[Raiden36O]

Fighting games in the arcade are a rip off.

[shadowdonftw]

lol look at ryu's face at 0:42

[psycho642]

Lol...He's like "That's it,I'm boned" XD

[rellik619555]

c awsome game. but put DLC characters more pls! taken6 looks good 2 check it out guys.

[gaddes01]

i'm gonna have to learn how to use this dude.

[Topdek]

0:06 "I will show you the power of my boob-grab stance."

[Wack0Br0]

HAHA

[maitlan]

LOL.

[FutureHD]

abel has nice ultra that keep dodge like 1 range move . but his special are hard to use, has to very close.

[BoreDTempesT]

They kept that Ryu face? xD

0:45

[crackerjackofclubs]

Oh and also if you ever played arcade with seth, his rival battle is with abel.......Seth says, "you should of been destroyed a long time ago".......WINK WINK

Abel says,"That face, That face, I Know That Face"..........WINK WINK WINK WINK

[crackerjackofclubs]

If you remember, Guile asks abel where did he see the sonic boom before he performed it. After Abel wins the fight he says, I cant tell you, you might be a spy......This reveals the code of secrecy that charlie and abel had during there time at the shadaloo base.

[yeoldeface]

no offense but that sounds extremely contrived

[crackerjackofclubs]

Abel is next seen having his wounds treated by a guy by the name of (You guessed it) Charlie Nash. Abel had lost his memories from being in the brutal fight with seth. Abel and Charlie have a father and son relationship for a while until Charlie was murdered. Charlie was hiding among the shadaloo base and was very secretive about it, because if someone aroud found out, He would be killed. ( which actually was the case in the close future).

[zztopis]

Is Abel the father of remy from street fighter 3 ?

[Birdyroxas]

He has no Memory of his past

[crackerjackofclubs]

This is the real story. Both Abel and Seth (Who was originally going to be named Cain) are both experiments among many. Abel was supposed to be Bisons' greatest experiment at the time and Seth was defective at the time. Seth was amazingly Jealous and saw hisself as the strongest being alive (not Bison, or his brother Abel).......Seth attempts to kill Abel (and believes that he has finished the job) while they were teenagers ( Bison: Abel My Have You Grown).

[knoxxkick]

lol @ the subtitles saying 'Well than'

[shadewings]

Heh, his little spin throw made me think about Mario

[TheTrillz]

Cheapest character in the game, hands down.

[supergimp112]

i play gief and this guy is a pushover - and btw there is no such thing as "cheap" in fighting games.

[TheTrillz]

Umm.. Maybe I wasn't clear in my meaning. I guess abel isn't cheap when the npc does the his little hurricane throw every time you get up and then after he rolls under your punches. Yeah Abel isn't cheap at all. I believe you are wrong there is such a thing known as "cheap" in fighting video games, but im pretty sure that you wouldn't know what cheap is since the only fighting game you probably play is Street fighter games.

[tehghost132]

he sure is, right after Sagat, Ken, Ryu, Zangief, Akuma, Gouken, Gile and Boxer

[ArmandoXIII]

rofl. probably to a loser he is, he is mid tier.

[Siberianhusky89]

He's actually better than I expected, besides, tiers are for squares. Also, grabs are broken in the game.

[supermariothegreat]

I prefer to say tiers are 4 qweers. XD

[Siberianhusky89]

True, but it still doesn't change how overpowered Zangief is XD

[supermariothegreat]

true. so true. so very true. did I mention true? XD

[worksa7]

Mortal Kombat wins in the over powered characters genre.

Onaga, kintaro, Goro, Blaze, Etc...

[KKSHC]

Hahahahaha, look at Ryu @ 0:43.

He has a perfect "OH CRAP" expression.  The expressions in this game, although slightly exaggerated, are great!

[Ho0lihan]

can you blame Ryu? Abel had freaking demon eyes

[KKSHC]

Hehehehe, I guess not. Abel's eyes are pretty scary looking :P

[LEAFtea57]

I dont know he looks a little uninspired in terms of overall design but his fighting style looks cool

[buklao123]

Abel is my guy in this game

[JOBIETRICE213]

Abel's french and Remy' french. I wonder if they're father and son.
