How is Jax a bruiser who “only f*cks things up?” He’s a goddamn captain in the special forces.
Hopefully Obama can CHANGE this!
Maybe you shouldn’t search for role models in a video game.
deejay, birdie, and balrog are awesome looking characters, why do you have complaints about them?
You can use this for over half of the white characters and complain. Get over yourself.
Also if they did obey your “rules” they would be boring as fuck.
Most importantly, why do you care? You actually look up to video-game characters as role models AND only look up to them if they’re black? How about looking up to real life persons for what they achieved, thought and done regardless of their skin color and ethnicity? Otherwise, can’t you actually just play the game with a character you like to play?
Also, Brazilian is not an ethnicity. We’re a country of immigrants just like the USA. Most of our population is white, followed by mixed race, then blacks, then asians and native americans.
Palette swapping white characters => role modelling them => win
xD
DUH id like to complain cause the only eastern european characters are just drunken wrestlers
IM SO OFFENDED, I NEED A ROLE MODEL
Rodriguez doesn’t sound brazilian to me

his name is khushnood butt
King Cobra, bitches.

There’s also the menacing military type. Like Dragunov, if Russia counts. :tup:
Edit: Also, here’s another black fighter: [media=youtube]b5pnWQTrESs"[/media]
that is so stereotypical!
WHY MUST ALL SOVIETS BE DRUNKS OR SOVIET SOLDIERS
WHERE IS THE REGULAR RUSSIA SCIENTIST WORKING IN A LAB TO CURE CANCER
WHY ISNT HE IN A FIGHTING GAME
seriously, fuck this thread and the op is a moron
fighting games are based around stereotypes because it makes it interesting
duh where is my black fighter in a suit working at a mortgage firm, i need a better role model than a boxer
lol fuck off, id ban you if i could cause you are so goddamn stupid
this thread is racist
Why would you want to look up to videogame characters…that’s just silly.
What are you, 7?
You know what, I’ve been wondering where the average guy was in fighting games, were is the guy working at the office/manual labour/retail (pick whichever you like)?
And then I remembered, in all likelyhood he is in front of the controller or in contact with the guy in front of the controller and probably wouldn’t find another guy like him much fun to play as in a game unverse where you have green dudes giving off electric shocks and karate men lobbing fireballs like it’s nothing.
It might be ok for an FPS or something where you are seeing everything from your character’s viewpoint and are meant to sympathize with them, but in a fighting game aren’t you just going to go for the coolest/cutest/manliest/strongest/ect character every time regardless of how realistic they are?
