What a rocky start for the Street Fighter V Beta tests

The Beta tests for the upcoming Street Fighter V (Five) was supposed to start on July 23rd  but from two Youtube channels I've checked out they either can not get the game to load at all or only get as far as the training room fight ( 1 player vs dummy).
Below is just one tweet from the Official Street Fighter twitter account...

We are aware users are still having issues logging into the SFV beta. We are continuing to work on a fix. Thanks for your patience.

Note that the game is a console exclusive to Sony's PS4.  Capcom has been trying to make adjustments to their severs and Reboot the servers. If you want to follow the beta thread, I left a link below.

Here's the link to the official Capcom discussion thread  .

Just really disappointing because probably well over 50,000 viewers were watching the game being played at EVO 2015 but this Online multiplayer just doesn't seem to be working.  Most of the thumbnals on Twich.tv page are of error screens and face cameras of frustrated streamers.

If you want Shenmue III you will need to help fund it

Not a mean joke. Can the Internet do it again? Fund a game by the original creator. The last time Shenmue was seen was way back in 2002. Going to be using the latest Unreal game engine. I don't know how difficult it was for Mr. Suzuki to get the series name and stuff from Sega but it is really cool nonetheless.


This was announced/launched during the Sony E3 2015  presentation earlier tonight. Quite the aggressive funding goal at 2 Million US Dollars.    PS4 and Windows PC (if it gets funded)


I really hope  one of the features this game comes with are recap videos. When Shenmue II was ported over to the original XBOX it came with a bonus DVD that had the cut scenes from Shenmue I... Oh there it is Unlocked if funding reaches 2.5 million. I'm really just interested in continuing the story that was left at with Shenmue II.
