    Her current alt is kinda like her alpha one so I guess thats why.


    I hope akumas will be good, but everything about akuma's design in this series so far has been pretty bad imo, so I expect to be highly disappointed.

    As far as I can recall, these are all the costumes they've shown off.

    Ryu - Hakama - Not terrible, but definitely not great. Too big or something.
    Ken - Cowboy - Far too silly for my liking. Had they gone the more casual Kevin Bacon cowboy he would have been grand.
    Chun Li - Pink/Blue dress - This is just ridiculous. Dont know what they were thinking.
    E Honda - Grey Skinsuit - Another 'I dont know what hey were thinking' attempt.
    Blanka - Saikyo gi - I love this!
    Zangeif - Mecha - I also love this! Went a little too far, but still awesome.
    Guile - Spec Ops - One of the best. It actually fits Guile as a costume.
    Dhalsim - Turban - Not terribly amazing, but not a bad costume.
    Balrog - Gangsta - Another of the best. Balrog has great taste in alts!
    Vega - ?
    Sagat - ?
    M.Bison -?
    T.Hawk - ?
    Dee Jay - Reggae - I've only seen one small image of this, but it looked great.
    Juri - White vest and pants - A little too plain, but still good.
    Adon - Black comabat suit? - Couldn't really see this.
    Cody - Updated classis FF costume - Another of my favourites. Just a solid design.
    Guy - ?
    Dan - Wildman - I like the idea, but it looks a little too goofy for my taste. (Yes, I know it's Dan, but still)
    Rose - Salsa dress with hat - Meh. I'll wait to see it moving before I openly dislike it.
    Sakura - ?
    Fei Long - Kato - I dont know why they got rid of the sleeves, still cool though.
    Gen - Topless - Looks great. His sinuey muscles look fantastic.
    Cammy - Bison - Like her first alt, this could have been perfect had she been wearing pants.
    Abel - Beard - All I could see was his face, so no comment XD
    C. Viper - Skintight leatherish combat suit - This looked pretty sweet, great step up from her boring first alt.
    Rufus - Chinese Vampire - It looks nice, but why in Gods name is Rufus wearing it? (Them both standing on one foot a lot is the only reason I can think of) Would have much preferred a biker gang costume.
    El Fuerte - Mayan priest? - I like this one, nice and colourful. As a Luchador he can get away with ridiculous costumes better than the others.
    Seth - Exposed glowing joints - Only saw one small image of this, looked pretty good though.
    Akuma - ?
    Gouken - ?

    ...cos Doom and especially now Ken B, were a piece of piss to play against before this.

    Maybe FINALLY Doom's game will improve in that he wont have to keep running back and spamming sonic booms ;)

    I won't HAVE to.

    I'll still do it just to annoy you though.

    Fuerte's alt should have been the sleeping Mexican gunslinger in a huge sombrero that covers his face and a poncho.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Honda's one is may be trying to emulate those sumo suit things you see people messing around in.

    From what I've read it supposed to be a stereotypical japanese thief costume.

    But Honda's no theif! :(

    Full length animated bit we've seen clips of before. Chun and Cammy kicking (or attempting to) some Juri ass.

    That is a sweet video.

    That it is. Some fantastic camerawork.
    Could have done without the Cammy/Chunners back to back thing though. Too cheesy XD


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


    Nice animation, nice illustration, but the wispy lines thing this game has going on bugs me. It's nowhere near as cool as the ink splats from the first one.

    Its really hard to believe that's a video for a videogame we're looking at. Capcom really goes all out for their games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,910 ✭✭✭Sisko


    I agree with all of yeas, looks great fantastic animation , I did like the ink better and the chun and cammy pose was cheesy but capcom really do make impressive visuals.


    8.9/10

    :P


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


    yeah yeah film revealed whatever.


    SONIC HURRICANE FTW!!!



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


    Not even Ryu has mastered the art of pointing his hands at a slightly different angle!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Orim


    I like sakuras and vegas new ultras. They look a lot better then the current.

    I may have missed it but does the Sonic Hurricane travel at all?

    It didn't in other games (that I can think of), just kind of sat there for a few seconds.

    It never has before so probably won't now. It tends to have a vacuum effect.

    It was usually bigger in other games though.

    The vacuum properties tended to be what made it a killer. Catch someone poking at the other end of the screen with it.

    Capcom still teasing... LINK


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,006 ✭✭✭Ramza


    Capcom are seriously taking the piss like cmon :P

    ****ing hell


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


    With capcoms form of late, this probably means Dudley ISN'T in the game :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 137 ✭✭Shloer


    I'm pretty sure Dudley Ibuki Makoto and that "Hakan" Arab wrestler guy are a definite at this stage. Also some rumour of a "Shadow".

    If it doesn't happen I'll be surprised.


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


    Oh please not Shadow. Bad enough they brought back as many dead people as they could think of the first time 'round.

    I love this ****! They're really making people pay for seeing that rumour list! I'd be happy if they kept this up right till launch!

    But Guile says they never found a body in his intro!
    However, yes. Keep Charlie outta this.
