Street fighter 4 screenshots

I'm going to reserve any judgement until I've actually played the game. To transfer the gameplay of Alpha 3 or Third Strike over to full 3d is going to be ridiculously hard. If it falls below gameplay standards it's going to get burned by the rabid fanbase pretty harshly.
 
It's graphically not as sharp as I was hoping. The east, for the most part, are really struggling to get top visuals on games with MGS4, Lost Planet, this and others looking quite plain visually. The only one that blows me away is Dead Rising which is graphically fantastic as the stylisation of the graphics works, but it still lacks high quality normal mapping, specular mapping and particle effects.

I thought it wasn't full 3D. I just thought the characters where. I may be mistaken however.

It's full 3d, look at the screenshots. Not a sprite in sight. The gameplay is supposed to be identical to previous Street Fighters, right down to the 2d-esque snappy movement and collision detection. That's where the 2D gameplay anecdote come from.
 
Just to clarify, the game world is full 3D but its played on a 2D plane.
The camera does shift in and out and around though which might give the impression of it being a VF5 and Tekken esque 3D fighter. :)
