OMFG, please, PLEASE Capcom, on OST A let me have the same or even remix ver of Cosmic Elevator music ; -;

I remember when gamers weren't so whiny and entitled First off, you don't have to buy a whole new disc, you haven't had to do that since SUPER STREET FIGHTER 4 a 3 year old game, if you so choose you could be using that disc for AE, ver 2012, AND NOW Ultra, all of which boast MORE characters AND features. I still remember people flipping their shit that CSE had to be a full (discounted outside of Japan) game and only added 1 character and story. And if nothing else, the price for characters alone isn't that bad either with both AE and Ultra costing $14.99 for the download versions adding 4 and 5 characters respectively at $3.75 and $3 a piece (again using BB; $8/character (only 3) then "forcing" you to buy a $40 game). Then there's the roster, it might seem "lazy" to you but here's the thing...THOSE CHARACTERS ARE ACTUALLY REALLY POPULAR! And as awesome a game as SFxT is (and stop hating, it's played very healthily and especially now no one hates on it but people who are stuck in their 1st impressions) it's a different game from SF4 and tons of people would love to play them in that environment. Everyone clamors for more SF3 characters (Hugo, Elena) and Rolento hasn't had a SF game since Alpha, and before SFxT he wasn't seen since CvS2, and everyone loves to fap off to Poison. Also they're making new animations and HAVE to completely retool them to work in a different engine, and aside from that, what sense would it make for them to create 5 new assets from the ground up at the tail end of a generation? And yeah, you're getting a BRAND NEW character, one that hasn't been in SF period and who has been confirmed NOT to be either Asura or Mega "Bad Boxart" Man (and even if it is Haggar, so? Again, another widely requested character, and who would be even MORE work to port since not only are the SF and Marvel gameplay engines wildly different, but so too are their graphics engines). And we haven't even gotten into the fact that EVERYONE is receiving balance changes (some of which have already been previewed at their panel at EVO, but for obvious time restraints couldn't be shown on the main stage) and new modes which could include the much wanted online training mode. Oh and if you buy the boxed version, you get $40 worth of FREE DLC, something that WAS NOT offered for the boxed ver of AE and one of the most enticing incentives for me and they're still offering it at the discount of $39.99 as opposed to a full $59.99 Any way you slice it, Ultra is a perfectly fine and possibly great update. From the sounds of it on here, most people skipped AE anyways, so none of those can say shit about it, and more of those people blindly hate on (and most likely passed on) SFxT too, so again shhhhhh!

Heca, I like you, but please stop doing this... .v. This is the second time in recent memory you brought my hopes up only to kick them in the teeth and stomp on its throat.

Yes, because revealing everything about your game on the debut announcement, when the release is months away, is excellent PR :V

I like my HDD space, also unlike buying AE, this time I actually get the DLC which I refuse to spend money on :V

Ultra huh, now all of a sudden I want everyone to have 3 Ultra choices a la 3 Super Art choices in SF3! Make it happen Capcom.

John Stewart voice+skin! .o.

Man, I knew Tekken was jokes for awhile now, but this, this just hurts... First let me address the preexisting characters; Togo. Just...why? He'd be a Lars clone, and if we're not making another Tag game, just leave him out, he didn't do anything in the story, he WON'T add anything to gameplay, Tekken seriously needs to REDUCE and REFINE it's roster rather than add in more copy pastas with some spice. I actually like Revolution's smaller roster size, however I don't like the particular limit or those who got in, OR the fact you can't even have the whole roster anyways... Next, Shin, ok F THIS! He's just as pointless as Togo, he did jack shit in BV and he was already proven to be an inept loser. There's 2 possibilities with him; he's ANOTHER Mishima clone (because we SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO need another one of those! :D) or he's has an original style, but he'd probably be a fucking joke (Harada has already been expressly against Shin for awhile now so including him in this poll is only to sate fans, if he won, I don't think he'd be handled well, not that you can handle shit any other way anyways ). Also while not actually existing (because there were no women in the Tekken Force, if there were, Jin did the right thing and gave them unisex uniforms, as it fucking should be with a military unit) but the problem with the female Force character is the same as Togo, at worst they could give her a new moveset, but again, just don't see it adding much actual dimension to Tekken as a whole, just further muddling the roster. Next let's address the animals, sure Tekken is no stranger to including them to its roster, but (with the exception of guest Gon) they were all at least practical; Roger (come on, Kanga boxing is about as old as it gets), Alex (he's a fucking raptor!), Panda and Kuma (bear wrestling, again an old tale) but adding either a Salmon or Mantis is just....ugh....the first would be a joke immediately on the level of Gon is added traditionally, and just plain stupid any other way. The Mantis COULD get away if they made a mini Nancy, which is the only way I see this (realistically) happening... Sure they could add something to the game but I feel Harada just wants them to be "whacky for the sake of being whacky" one of Japan's hugest weakness in modern fiction. Ok, before my final rant, let me address the old man, fucking really? What the fuck in Wang then? And isn't having the now slightly flamboyant Sebastian enough? If anyone is going to be old, just "resurrect" OG Heihachi and give him back his diapers :P I fill this "run-of-the-mill" old man would be "anime" average, meaning he would play to all the tired tropes....middle aged (possibly balding) salary man with thick glasses who's meek, frail, but for no reason a humongous pervert. Yeah, no thanks... Finally...I want to address all the female suggestions at once...I know sexism is a non-issue in Japan but their focus on the "sexy" and "cute" borders on the psychotic, creep factor aside, it has made Japan stagnant and extremely predictable. I mean, we have the trifecta right here; loli, 63, and slut. No, I don't want an Idolm@ster crossover of any sort, keep that shit where it belongs. a Female Paul adds nothing to the world except more hentai (some of it now canon). I already mentioned my gripes with a female Force character, but even worse is when the word "sexy" has to be deliberately added...we already know how superficial the world is, especially Japan, it always irks me to have the words "cute" and "sexy" deliberately pointed out because it already cements the character in shallow waters and means that you've pretty much unearthed all the personality their going to bring. Also "sexy" usually isn't "sexy" so much as it is "whorish", if I want that, I have Anna lol. All that's left is the vampire and the zombie; the latter of which I actually think could add the most in terms of actual gameplay, the Soul Calibur team made a very successful 3D trap character in the form of Viola, and if this zombie character could create multiple "orbs" for control from her limbs, that could be interesting, especially since that could alter hitboxes but also limit your own options. It could be a very risk-reward character that I doubt Harada will think off because he's too busy making her "fuckable" which is exactly what I DON'T want from a zombie of any type (but if chosen is exactly what I'll get...*sigh*). The vampire is another pointless addition, using her supernatural background there are some interesting possibilities, but again, one I don't think would ever be brought up in a meeting, and the only reason to connect her to Lili's family is "oh hey, they're from Western Europe, that's close enough to Eastern Europe, you know what that means!". She'd probably even looks like a generic blonde/similar to Lili, and I just...can't give any more fucks... As I said before, Tekken, re-evaluate yourself; make your roster more lean and effective. The biggest turn off for new comers is having to see 50+ different matchups to learn, especially when like half of them are clones "except they do THIS" to just annoy the piss out of them. No one asked, but that's my angry 2 cents, now... IGNORE ME!!!

How is it obsolete when SFxT is still a good game, still played, and the best characters are Tekken characters anyways

#thejokeisthedream ( ; -; )7

It's really sad that I actually kinda liked the game back when it was pure and simple, still a joke but the simplicity of its punchline was heart touching. Then they went and added in all these pointless systems and became more and more like the games it mocked ; -; I'll buy it

Guess no one was excited enough to care lol Unblockable Eddie Drills D:

Oh sweet! Thanks :D Looking forward to that then, I should probably pre-order this game lol

Hermes is the chick with Baiken's VA right? Since I don't know anything about Jojo's she the only character I care about atm lol Will she actually be fighting in this pseudo tourney? Like is everyone going to get a shot or is it popular characters only ; -; cause I'd like to see more of her play, even by meh CPU

Suzuran preforms exactly like a regular standing guard, so yes, you can be KO'd by chip and unblockables will still go through it.

Don't worry, this will be buried in a week o/ No netplay, no life. No way this is going to make in back into larger scenes, but maybe smaller places will play and stream it (I really miss Southtown Arcade's bi-weekly stream for it ; -; ) And pretty much everything's been found, but I guess it doesn't hurt to go back over for anyone even slightly interested in this game. Now I must prepare to suffer at the bliss of the links orz

Still don't think it deserves its own thread (we need like a Misc Fighters new thread) but might as well take advantage of it! Latest episode of the PSBlogcast revealed CvS2 is coming to North American PSN this Tues. No price revealed and also keep in mind this is probably the same as the Japanese version, so no netplay (sadly).

Isn't that were all women go

But you only get 1, F this game :\ EDIT: Also seems like on Tues Dragunov and Hwoarang are being added to the random roster v.v EDIT 2: Also seems like their adding training mode ("Warm Up Space") and Arcade will see multiple levels of difficulty, there will also be items purchasable through the PS Store like costumes, "premium" effects, and an item which can reset your stat points. Increased level and dan-rank cap and it appears you can have Player rooms without the use of stat points, just vanilla characters.

The fact that I have no idea who that is, is proof you need to step back... = w=

OMFG, I'm sorry, had to stop at Batman with Zod's into LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL TOO FUCKING PERFECT! KNEEL BEFORE THE NIGHT!

Wait, people find MK women attractive? Damn, any port huh guys?

This article seems to invalidate that theory somewhat. But hey, all's well that ends well.

That's what has me most intrigued at the moment (I don't play or know anything about LoL) but I'll try any fighter, especially ones that try different things. I think the closest I've ever had to this would be in Star Ocean 3 with managing the Fury gauge (give that to a traditional fighter, I think that could make for an interesting mechanic too). It'll be interesting to see how the balancing act works with determining how low a move should be out. Not looking forward to MvC1 Assist/Strikers though lol [shit is usually broken]
