Whip it, whip it good - The Poison GD Thread

Poison’s speech is FAR from feminine, pal. Pay attention, she’s using more slang than any character in the game. Likely because she’s from the streets, and owns it.
Poison being the most feminine character in this game is far from a feat with half of the women looking like apes, but that doesn’t even matter because it’s beside the point.
Only a person who lacks knowledge in both characters would bother drawing parallels between the two. Yeah, Ivy is a seductress; but Poison isn’t. She’s just hot and knows it. Taunting your opponents with being sexy as hell is different than luring them in, making out with them, and then killing them or any other variation of solely relying on one’s sex appeal to best an opponent.
Ivy relies on sex appeal, it’s her entire thing. Poison just works it while she kicks ass. There’s a difference, and if you fail to see that then I don’t know what more to say.

damn right, no other reason why people pick blanka’s alt3…thats made for it~ lolz but i was joking…but seriously Poison and Poison ivy dont share much in common…if you want her to cosplay~ thats all you buddy! but i’ll keep her the way she is untill a cool alt comes out for her~

You do know much to be this aggressive about fictional characters huh? Keep in mind I wasn’t even talking to you but you’ve done nothing but be rude as hell for no reason.

Your post basically makes my point in that Poison Ivy is just a more extreme version of poison. They both use thier sexuality to disarm you and then defeat you. How you don’t get this is not my problem and I don’t care.

On topic: I would love a Poison Ivy alt because it fits her character perfectly and would be awesome

I’m only “aggressive” because I don’t respond to stupidity well.
You want a character that’s actually akin to Poison Ivy? Anna Williams.

See how that makes sense and then when you go back to Poison, it doesn’t?

ima agree with Jenet on this one~ Poison is anything is pretty thug like but thats her charm too~ lolz she does slur alot huh? read those quotes a few pages back~ haha

but if she was to have another alt i would want it to be either Punk/Rock(90’) inspired or her alt from capcom fighting allstars. either one i think would fit her better then Poison Ivy from Batman fame.

How is thinking a alternate costume would be awesome stupid? You got mad because I made a loose connection between two characters and insulted me because you disagree. You seem very immature.

I never said Poison and Poison Ivy were similar in every way but did say they have similarities which they do and capcom has made costumes out of connections waaaaaay more flimsy so whats your problem anyway?

LOL Anna would be great if she was in the game like I wanted. Somebody asked for alt ideas I gave one so you need so chill

Isn’t her normal costume already very punkish? I would like Poison to have a Jenny from the block type look with baggy pants and like a wifebeater but that might be to similar

well it is thats why an alt giving off the same vibe wouldnt change the image of the character, i wouldnt want a drastic change…even if it is a alt because i’ll start to feel detached from the character, it wouldnt feel the same. it would be like asking Ryu to wear shoes…he aint going to…

Good because I would love “hoodrat” poison she is from the ghetto afterall lol.

Yeah I would like her in like a metro city jersey and baggy pants,it would fit pretty well imo

lulz way to take it out of context~
you gotta understand Final Fight was made in the earily 90’s alot of things has changed since then…and clothing has changed alot from the, but it isnt too hard to figure out what Poison would were in this day and age… heck she doesnt even need to wear that same hat(thats its like her shit tho), or take if off completely. If anything because shes Hugo Manager she would had stepped her game up and wear designer clothes lolz…if not that then wear close visually similar to what her attier is now. but its hard to say since the character hasnt been used in a decade. D:

I hope they keep the 80/90’s punk vibe she has going and push it even farther.
I want to see some ripped fishnets, studded leather…something.

As long as they don’t give her that mess they planned for her to wear in Streetwise or her would-be alternate from Capcom Fighting All-Stars… They sucked.

I hope they don’t make her look like that second picture. I mean look at her face and hair.

But the first one is fine.

I like my ghetto fab idea better than those horrid designs that make her out to be a whore. I know full well when FF was made thats where my idea came from. Girls in the hood like poison is from nowadays don’t wear 80/90’s type punk gear.

My idea was that if poison was from a 2011 metro city slum she would likely wear more hiphop attire like everyone else does. I’m from Chicago and there are lots of white girls that dress with that style because you grow up with it.

It had nothing to do with turning anyone’s words against them.

yeah her fighting allstars alt was nice

and oh i see what you mean R4U~ i though you were blowing out of proportion

What was Kimber doing in FF Streetwise?

Any idea who’s voicing Poison in SFxT?

It sounds like Karen Strassman to me.

Err, whoops, I should have specified. I was asking about her Japanese voice.

Oh, that’d be Atsuko Tanaka.

That’s what I thought! Though Atsuko Tanaka’s wiki says she voices Nina in SFxT, which doesn’t make any sense as she voiced Poison in 3rd Strike.

If it really is her though, then Poison will have to be on my team. I mean, she’s the fricken Major.
