    Sorry, bit of an odd thread but did anyone every [bar chopper :p] appreciate T.Hawks character? I mean gameplay and graphically, I always thought he looked really ugly and rigid. Just did not suit the roaster, so i've always hated him.

    I made my mother buy me SSF2 when it came out for the snes, the day i finished my exams and i remember looking at him thinking, why you so ugly bra?

    POLL TIMES.

    Dumb character


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,005 ✭✭✭Creature


    I like his fighting style and design. His stance looks quite ridiculous though.

    I would rather a million T Hawks instead of any 3rd Strike characters though, now there is one badly designed and forgettable cast.
    I mean I'm a big fan of Balrog but one is enough thanks.

    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO:eek:

    there is a lot of ****e characters in 3s, none as bad as t-hawk imo. The ones they're adding however are gold. I look forward to playing ibuki against you muahhahaha

    Dudley is nothing like balrog, they wear boxing gloves, thats it. They are nothing at all alike otherwise.

    **edit**

    Scratch that actually, theres hardly any ****e characters in 3s. Hmmm still the absolute worst has nothing on how bad t-hawk is..

    On that note, which 3s character do you hate the most Creature?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 599 ✭✭✭FoamyMushroom


    Never really liked him tbh...

    All I know is... Ultra... VERY feckin damaging..

    Would like to see a Hawk n Gief match... be such a contest to get an ultra in


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,099 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    T. Hawk was awesome, **** stance and all.

    None of this shouting out every time he does a move for T. Hawk oh no!

    He just hums.

    HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,748 ✭✭✭Cunny-Funt

    Who do I hate the most? Well they're mostly all quite bad really

    I suppose the likes of Necro, the white blob who shapeshifts and the wierd guy in the toga who looks like a melting candle. They belong more in Darkstalkers than SF. I'm sure their gameplay is probably sound to the fans of the game but their design is disgraceful. Don't get me wrong I like new characters in games but if you can't think of new ideas then don't just keep the movesets of old characters and slap them with new skins.
    Got a Sonic Boom? Yup. Got a Flash kick? Absolutely. Guile? No...some emo guy who wears his hair down instead of up!
    Token crappy joke character who nobody likes. Dan? No! It's Sean! Wtf?! Who the hell is Sean?!

    Don't even get me started on Gill. Bison was such a brilliant boss of SF2. Then they replace him with that ridiculously cheap multi coloured naked idiot :(



    And while I'm sure Dudley plays quite different you can't deny that design wise, he's just a Balrog stand in. A black boxer who uses dash punch attacks. Hmmm how can we make him stand out from Balrog...I know! Lets make him English and give him a moustache! It is an awesome moustache though :pac:.

    T. Hawk was awesome, **** stance and all.

    Lol epic post. Hawk is a real man. He has an Eagle ffs. No rose throwing pansy nonsense for me thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,229 ✭✭✭Dreddybajs


    Sean isn't a joke character really, he was completely broken top tier in 2nd Impact :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,005 ✭✭✭Creature


    Lol well I'm not complainging about moves and gameplay, and yeah Blanka and Dhalsim are a bit crazy but they're nowhere near as bizzare as Necro, Twelve and co.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,005 ✭✭✭Creature


    Nah it'd be like if in LoTR if When Gandalf fights the Balrog, he fights a Boxer looking for fight money instead of a giant fire monster.


    I wish I had a combo video to illustrate my point better. :pac:


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,255 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Of the 4 charachters introduced in Super Street Fighter II, I thought T. Hawk was the lamest. However, I still prefer him to a large percentage of the charachters in SF3TS.


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


    all 3s characters played well and had completely different styles and were innovative to say the least. Their supers well thought out and when executed with perfection, displayed mind blowing effects. Look at oro for instance, all 3 SA were absolutely amazing.
    Same goes for Q, the destruction super etc.

    Character designs themselves were great, sure oro looks ugly and old and has only one hand but look at blanka then? would you have sex with blanka? no wayz

    Thought Oro tied one hand behind his back to give the competitors a fighting chance?

    Is that your usual criteria for playing a Street Fighter character? :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 220 ✭✭meducation


    t hawk is lame,
    i think dj is lame but t hawk is far worse.... it was fun in alpha 3 with flying headbutt air recover flying head rinse and repeat in mirror matches just do it till someone wins :D
    anyone see the gameplay footage for him his ultra looks very very strong...
    just a new zangief without being cool

    Indeed remy was not a character I was instantly fond of, although he brought some interesting ideas to guiles limited move set (he has guiles moves and more, guile who people are always bitching about needing more moves) Btw rufus and abel nicked moves from 3s characters interestingly enough.

    Oro didnt steal anyones moves. & he's no more oddly designed than sim. Seems like an odd character at 1st but he's very impressive actually.

    Seans way better then Dan, he's bottom teir in 3s all right but he's not meant to be a joke character, just as vega nots meant to be. He's a damn fun character to play, plays a lot less like a shoto then dan does. Abel stole some of his game play.

    yeah I care little about gill myself, better then t-hawk though.

    Of course I can, he's as far from balrog as you can get. He's a boxer whos black or rather I think he's meant to be more Indian black rather then african black. But thats it. Its like saying fei long and ryu are the same cause they're both asian and martial artists..

    You really think the fact that he's english and has a moustache is what makes him different to balrog eh? You don't have a clue. He's not a charge character, the guy has a dragon punch ffs! lol.


    You rate t-hawk over dudley? tsk tsk tsk. You have no dignity.


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


    duddleys moves are better


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,181 ✭✭✭✭Jim


    I think Creature's issue is that Street Fighter characters, while ridiculous, were always segmented someway in reality (with Blanka being the furthest out there). Sim is a Yoga Master, and his limb stretching, teleporting and fire breathing are exaggerated versions of actual Yogas. T Hawk is a native American with has a big totem (from what we're led to believe). Dictator is an evil Dictator with slight "super (physco) powers".

    Whereas 3S has Oro...bird man with one arm. Q....Cyborg Robot detective. Gill...multicoloured elements controlling man. They seem more like Xmen than SF characters. All the SF2 characters had some (vague) reason for having their powers, whereas 3S everything seems randomly put together.

    Don't get me wrong though, there's characters from 3S I love and I'm glad some are making it in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,748 ✭✭✭Cunny-Funt


    Oro is just an auld fella....


    <_<

    >_>



    .....who lives in a cave & is supposed to be such a a powerful fighter that he has to tie up one arm so as not to kill his opponents.....





    ....and his powers appear to come from snots in his nose...yep.. lol.


    But indeed, there is a reason why most of the 3s guys are known as freaks. I still rather them over the bland T-hawk. I dunno I just never ever liked t-hawk lol.



    Btw thats from that flash ropedrink posted to those that didn't watch it. Watch it , as youtube censors out the funniest clips. There are some boring ones though (as that clips shows) but theres gold there too :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 551 ✭✭✭Monkeyto


    I really can't stand T-Hawk.

    **** your couch T-Hawk. With a rusty blade.
