I want to know who this guy:[details=Spoiler]

[/details] is, because he shows up a buncha times and, unlike the other Shadaloo thugs, has a face.

[details=Spoiler] I’m wholly excited to hug Aprile. Overwhelmed by this bitch. <3

Well, it was to be expected.

Well, same “drunk fools” from IGN play Act 2 of story mode. So feel free to avoid this video if you don’t want spoilers.

Spoiler

[details=Spoiler]I needed to see Ken’s face, so I couldn’t resist. Anyway:

  • Ken’s face looks unchanged, BUT this could be a different version from release. Maybe. Ugh.

  • Urien fights Nash at one point, probably teaches him respect. Juri fights Rashid. Then they all kiss and make up.

  • There are basically 2 major teams that are trying to find the pieces and stop Bison:

Team 1: Guile, Chun, Karin, Sim, Ibuki, Ryu, Ken, Gief, and Cammy (probably Laura too)

Team 2: Urien, Rashid, Azam, Helen, Nash, and Juri

Psycho Power For ALLL!!!

Abracadabra!!!

Agreed, they are avoiding one of my biggest problems when it comes to adapting Street Fighter into other forms of media – they DIDN’T just focus on the shoto side of things. I get that they’re a vital part, but in so many adaptations they bulldoze over all of that rich character diversity that you see in Guile, Chun Li, Cammy, Blanka, Gief and others and it’s only shotos, some cameos and Bison and if we’re lucky a bit more on the other Heavnely kings.

9678

By the way, isn’t it a pity that they have apparently ditched completely Urien’s transformation? He appears with bronze skin and silver hair all the time, it looks like they want this to be his normal appearance. I really liked his transformation in SFIII.

9679

It’s more than a pity, it’s utter blasphemy.

9680

I’m guessing those are the dolls at the headquarters, the others are probably assigned to project CHAINS

9681

Well, the bright side is, that greek alt will be on PERMANENTLY when you select the costume. So there’s that at least.

9682

Bison’s quote at the end of the trailer

I get this feeling that he’s gonna say that to Chun-Li at the end when they have their final showdown, and not in the streets of New york

9683

Anyone who thought Ken was getting some makeover baised off nothing need to be slapped; anyone who thinks in game models confirms playable need to be stabbed. Not every character needs to playable just because they have a model.

[details=Spoiler]Literally the entire cast are after Bison sans the 3 Kings and maybe Necalli. That’s assuming one of the 3 Kings doesn’t betray him as well.

Oh Bison, this better be part of your grand plan. :sad: [/details]

9686

What is it with you and stabbing? I think we need to get you a copy of Shank on Steam, if you don’t already own it.
