Super Street Fighter 4 was released today. All the details you’ve been salivating over for the past several months are now at your fingertips…. or are they?
We received today (what we thought was) a prank email from a group of guys we met at the PAX East Street Fighter 4 “unofficial” tournament that happened in the free play area. Their email states:
“What’s up guys,
It’s ****** and ********, we met you at Pax east about a month ago at the SF4 tourney ****** set up. We were wondering if you guys are interested in some screen shots of a secret character that wasn’t announced for SSF4. We found him today after playing a certain combination of win/losses with Ibuki. We have screen shots of the game paused with the secret character “Pandar” in play. We believe he may just be an easter egg but he is playable.
Email: ***** if you would like to discuss payment arrangements. We have attached a cellphone pic of the screen shot so you can see we’re serious. The actual screen shot is taken with a better camera and has been saved on our computer. We will give you the first copies for the right price.
This isn’t a joke. “
While the above email is corny at best, the attached photo was pretty damn convincing. We’re having Rocket take a look at it to see if its been tampered with… but it looks pretty damn good.
If you have unlocked this “Pandar”, please let us know. Take a picture if possible and send it to GameGamePOW@gmail.com.
We’d like to have the WORLD premiere of the infamous ”Pandar”. We’ve heard that he is originally from the original 1994 Street Fighter Anime TV series that only aired in Korea. There are a few images, but we’ll let you be the judge once they are examined.
