That's Ryu and Ken's master, so naturally he's going to be a Shotokan user. I'm like you guys, though. I wish there weren't so many shoto users... I'm surprised there haven't been any "IT'S SHENG LONG!!!" comments.  |

Can we please not have so many damn Shota types? God damnit, its bad enough there still using the same character designs and there are only four new characters, but damn, another Shota character. Nice job Capcom. Blaz Blu is going to kick SF4's ass. Blazblue will suck. The character designs are just the Guilty Gear characters with a different hair color. They might as well just call it Guilty Gear XXX. |

I marked extremely hard when Vega was confirmed. Now all it needs is SAKURA KASUGANO!  Damn right. |

So far, SF IV looks to be the best fighting game to come out in ages. I only have a few minor queries:
1) Where are the black characters? I mean, the least they could do was include Dee Jay. An even better idea was to make Abel black. Seriously, when has a brother been represented cleanly in a fighting game, save Raven from Tekken? C'mon Capcom, it's the 21st century.
2) The boss character looks cool, but hasn't the "new weapon created by a secret organization as the boss character" motive been played out? And I know he's technically the "leader" of "S.I.N", Shadoloo's weapon department, but self-modification? Couldn't M. Bison just do that?
3) What the smurf is up with Rufus? We already have a fat character, and he's not even fat, but just incredibly built as a sumo wrestler. We don't need some popcorn eating fatty farting up SF. But who knows, he may be my favorite character after I play the game.
Other than that, this game looks amazing.

And that bugs me to, Iron Tager more than the Ragna but its nowhere near as bad Streetfighter. Blazblue and Tasunko vs. Capcom>SF4. |

He's one of the more powerful and intelligent characters, and not a stereotype, so that's good to see. |

He's one of the more powerful and intelligent characters, and not a stereotype, so that's good to see. And Namco made a big deal out of saying "He's not really black, that's not his real body, it's just the one he's living in right now." Although, his 'future' reincarnation looked exactly like his SC4 body, so who knows... I suppose I'd still take him over the likes of Lucky Glauber. |

Balrog is Black. You know the boxer guy who gets horribly owned by E. Honda's hundred hand slap. Let's see black guys in fighting games .... Boxers: Heavy D, Balrog, TJ Combo, Dudley Elena, Dee Jay, Bruce Irvin, Jax, Zasalamel, Birdie, Seth, Lucky, Zack, Eddy Gordo. Thats quite a few off the top of my head, who all have a variety of different roles. |

Zazi from Dead Dance/Tuff-E-Nuff Zazie from Fighters' History Dynamite Vanessa Lewis from Virtua Fighter Bob Wilson from Real Bout Fatal Fury Micky Rogers from Art of Fighting If you want to include Marvel vs. Capcom characters, you can add in Storm and War Machine. Orion from Time Killers Jeffry McWild from Virtua Fighter and if Eddy Gordo (who's Brazilian) counts, so does Sean from SF3. |

And now lets count the whites or close to whites from... just Marvel vs. Capcom 2. Ryu Ken Mega Man Wolverine Guile Rogue Sakura Zangief Mega Mans girlfriend Tron Bon Captain Commando Jill Spiderman Venom Hulk Bison Hayato Strider Doctor Doom Cyclops Marrow That Pirate Girl DAN HIBIKI! and more And the black characters from that game.

I hate to ruin the joke, but a number of those "white characters" are Asian.
Ryu, Dan Hibiki, and Sakrua, for instance.

Also, aren't Hayato, Strider, and Bison Asian as well?
Plus, the Mega Man charcters are machines, so they don't exactly count either.

Maybe not Dan, but Ryu looks as white as Ken. And to add to the joke. Lets name all the hispanics in that game. That weird cactus with a sombrero. |
