    I wonder who'll be next to get the schoolgirl treatment?

    Cammy, I'm looking in your direction...

    Also: there's a full list of changes on SRK.

    Come on now, half the alts we have now look like they came from either one of those weird fashion shows or a village people tribute act. :pac:

    Some are good like, but plenty are... WAT.

    each character has at least 1 decent alt at this stage, thats good by my standards, we do need wacky to keep the game exciting

    Reno from versuscity.net talks about the SSF4 location test for a bit in the latest SRK podcast.

    Deejay Ultra 1 seemed to do less chip damage

    :eek:

    Some awesome new alt concept arts. Apparently before he was an angry one-eyed giant getting scarred by dragon punches, Sagat was ginger!

    Also really awesome Boxer and Akuma concepts.

    And a Gouken one I feel pretty neutral towards.

    Good idea, but looks extremely boring.
    15_altcostume09.jpg

    ...not really sure. But at least they included another giant knot costume. Not enough of those going around.
    15_altcostume08.jpg

    Awesome.

    That Honda Alt is brilliant.
    Hope it's included.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,880 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    I'm pretty sure I'd have to pick formal wear Guile. My calculations indicate he would be 21.52% more annoying in that alt.

    Alot of those alts creeping up actually, I wonder if all of these are in.

    Increased to 22.38%

    Several sources seem to indicate a PC version of SSF IV will be announced at Tokyo gameshow. Woot woot. Its about damn time.

    Formal wear Guile looks like a photoshop using the SSFIV character with the uniform stuck on rather then actual concept art or a render/drawing so I'd also be interested to see how many of these alts make the cut.

    I assumed that was a technique they would use, just scribble on an overlay to get an idea what it would look like ingame.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,345 ✭✭✭Dunjohn


    I'd have preferred Zangief wearing an el Fuerte costume, or even a Hugo costume, but I suppose he hasn't had a truly serious alt yet.

    I love that Honda.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,070 ✭✭✭Placebo


    el futera [sp?] needs this costime

    rufus needs bam bam bigalo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Scavenger XIII


    You've just given me nightmares for like the next week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,138 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    El Fuerte needs something like this as an alt.

    Considering how little the Japanese care for PC, you'd think it'd already be done by now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Scavenger XIII


    You kidding? Japan loves Personal Computers. :pac:

    They do love their pro wrestlers there though, especially masked ones.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,239 ✭✭✭UberPrinny_Baal


    Of the alts that have come out, I'd say Zangief probably has the best 2.

    Mike Haggar pants and Mechagief are both awesome.

    I think at this point all the SFIV vanilla characters have one good alt (like I thought Rufus's Alt 1 Michelin man was really poor, but his Alt 2 Chinese Hopping Vampire outfit was really cool).

    I think the characters that came with Super (and only have 1) have the weakest.

    Obviously though, the more they give us, the better chance we'll all like at least one.

    I think both of guile's are awesome. Dead friend clothes and I'll-shoot-you-if-you-win clothes.

    Gen's alt 1 is a standout too.

    Seth's... not so much. Nor Honda, so much missed opportunity.

    Chun's alt 1 is pretty nice too. She's classy, see? :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,239 ✭✭✭UberPrinny_Baal


    Gen's alt 1 is a standout too.

    Absolutely. I only have 5 random costumes for each version of SFIV that I got free, but I'd really like to have Gen's alt 1.

    That or Mechagief are probably the most impressive of them all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,070 ✭✭✭Placebo


    theyre all pretty good. Just look back in the olden days when we just had colours, last strange colours in sf3 that u had to unlock were really welcomed as well, violent ken and white chunli, awesome

    also twelve morph Q

    ^ I really liked the custom colour mode in CvS2.

    I had Rugal made out to look perfectly like the Joker from Batman, and then proceeded to play with him exclusively.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,333 ✭✭✭Sairus


    Man, this is sweet.

    That's his late father, Go Hibiki, who looks like a Japanese Goblin for some reason

    dave you noob
    Thats Takuma Sakazaki from KOF/Art of Fighting
    dan was made as a deliberate copy of a generic SNK character, as they copied SF's fireball, funny thing later in the years when they made SNK vs Capcom
    dantakuma1.png

    How did the narrative of karate change now that both SNK and Capcom were making parodies of themselves and the culture?
