Should Characters Look Older

[Frantastic23]

Well it's proven that the characters are all old

I mean shit they have been around for a while and they did look alot older through the timeline.

Just post what u think

[mepaphoros]

I think it would be cool, but Ken and Ryu didn't look much older in the trailer.

[ObsidianZ]

Well it's proven that the characters are all old


Bullshit.

We have no idea where in the timeline SFIV takes place. The only thing we have to go by is Ken's short hair in the trailer.

*ObZ

[Frantastic23]

Bullshit.

We have no idea where in the timeline SFIV takes place. The only thing we have to go by is Ken's short hair in the trailer.

*ObZ

I'm talking about from the timeline:arazz:

[Shade]

IV can take place the day after the end of III, or it can take place in a parallel timezone, crated by Dark Chun Li. We don't know yet.

So, yea.

[Biolink]

Not Gray hair,old ,but it should be noticeable enough.

Make Ryu look rougher looking such as his gritty looking Street fighter 3 self with added touches/

I'd love some nice concept art of all the Street fighter 3 characters,that way we can get a feel for how they would look.

I saw some art with Sean having dreads and a Basketball jersey.

[Ephidel]

Yes they should, but not too extremely.

[goodm0urning]

The original cast is getting pretty long in the tooth, so yeah.

Here's hoping that Ken is at least old enough to have a teenage son at this point.

[izanagisama]

If it fits with the story, yes. If not, no.

[MAGUS1234]

I wish designers knew that old people are cool in games :(

[Xiii]

I wouldn't mind if Ryu and Ken got more of the Terry treatment from Garou. Though I think it'd be hard for anybody to grasp Ryu without hi Gi.

[natural_ice]

Maybe a bearded Ken and semi bald Ryu? Cmon guys, give the game a "human" feel.. We all age, we all die sometime. The original SF players are gettin up there in age, so should their counterparts. Plus, you could throw Chun Li in a wheel chair (say Bison crippled her) Im sure shed be as effective as ever regardless the handicap...

[epp1e]

A lot of people are asking for an older Sakura after seeing the older her in the manga

[Henaki]

I want to see Akuma in a wheelchair talkin bout the good ol days as the final boss

[Dragonfave723]

Chun-Li in granny panties. mmmmmm ***shivers***

[Sasmasta]

Not Snake Clone Gone Wrong Old but yeah, a little older would be good. :tup:

Depending on timeline of course...

[ruthless_nash]

definately older, (depending on the storyline), but if not older at least look a bit different.

this wont happen, but i would like to have seen a ken with shirt and trousers or something. guile with a bomber jacket, sagat with combat pants ala sf2 movie. cammy in a corporals uniform complete with medals. lol.

[MaybeMemories]

while id like to see some reality perception at this stage but making character look completley different might make us hate their new looks so its not a safe bet, saying that id love for them to look slightly older

[sowutifmahsnsux]

the original cast should definitely look a bit more aged, but not too old.

[BloodBane]

I always hoped that Ryu would look old in SF IV
By old I mean Gouken old. With a beard, and scars and shit.

[TaiPing]

I want Oro to use his second arm on normals and specials.

[orochizoolander]

It's impossible (for me at least) to fathom what the OG sf crew would look like "old" so if capcom is going in that direction (which they should if it's the 4th WW tournament) they definitely have their work cutout for them.


The main problem i see with updating any characters from old games is that we love n remember them as cartoony looking so it's nearly impossible to take those cartoony images of characters we love and translate them into more realistic looking people without losing the look that made them who they were in the first place.

Whens the last time u were walking down the street and saw a guy that looked like ryu?

[Jaldaboath]

Hmmmm.... Milf Sakura...


*slobbers*

[Shade]

IV can take place the day after the end of III, or it can take place in a parallel timezone, crated by Dark Chun Li. We don't know yet.

So, yea.

Because you guys don't read.

Like I said, You're asking for something that may not have a place in the story. We don't know WHEN IV will take place. What if the shit took place directly after III?

"Yea, let's give him a beard, and a cane! That makes sense!"

[Meynizzle]

Of course they should look older, with age comes experience.

I just really hope that Oro's ending is canon where he trains Ryu, thus making Ryu have a different fighting style, which is a good start if they want to get rid of clones.

[Sasmasta]

Some people would be caught off guard though if Ryu changes fighting styles. Alot of people will take it with open arms, but then again, for every +, you get a -.

Oro with two arms if he shows up. :amazed:

[Master Chibi]

If Karin is in the game, then hell yes, Hot and older <3

[Meynizzle]

Some people would be caught off guard though if Ryu changes fighting styles. Alot of people will take it with open arms, but then again, for every +, you get a -.

Oro with two arms if he shows up. :amazed:

This much is true. An excellent example of this is Jin Kazama, I know a whole shit load of people were pissed off when he went Karate.

Maybe they can bite off Tekken right quick. At the cost of Ryu switching up styles and ultimately becoming stronger, the Satsu no Hadou kicks in (Devil Jin anyone?) and fucks niggas up, which makes a nice excuse to put "Evil" Ryu back up there.

[Baron Samedi]

older and they should give them lives too
what does ryu do for a living?

[elvis_a_presley]

what does ryu do for a living?

Begs and fights until he drops dead. :)

Me personally (and I do mean personally - this is elvis' little fantasy land ahead), I'd love to see it set many years later, and with a whole new cast (maybe with some "next generation" kids where appropriate - Sakura and Sean perhaps, and in their late 20's to early 30's, or even older).

Ken and Ryu were top blokes, really. But I stand by what I said in the "sf4 music" thread - I want something totally new. It's not that I didn't like them as characters. It's just that if this story is set a fair chunk after SF3, I'd hope they don't artificially prolong characters for silly reasons. Tekken is a great example of such silliness. We're up to.. what... 4 generations of Mishima now? Seriously... just drop dead already.

Same goes for if they do a SFA4. I'd love to see it go back even further and happen way WAY before Ken and Ryu are even teenagers and in the picture. Get some Gouki vs Gouken biff happening.

Honestly, there's nearly unlimited potential for the Street Fighter timeline to extend in either direction. And I'd love to see that potential. Covering only 10-20 years or so is just a drop in the ocean compared to what could be covered.

With all of that said, I 100% expect none of it to occur. I can see the SF2/3 character base being re-used once more, with maybe a few token new faces. In a way, I wouldn't blame them. I'd say they'll play it safe for this release at least to guarantee the sales. If that's successful, then we might see more experimentation with SF4.2 and 4.3 (because I'm expecting there to be patches and updates, just like there has been for every major version so far).

[masher]

give ken a mullet w/mustache

and ryu a mohawk w/5 o'clock shadow

that outta make look older! :nunchuck:

[spudlyff8fan]

Give Ken a straight up beard. That'd be too beastly for a game to handle, though.

[Shiro887]

older Sakura with bigger bubz and skimpier clothes d(^_^d )

[JubeiNinja69]

they don't have to look older for all we know SF4 can be in the past or 1 year right after 3rd strike depending on how they want the timeline to go.

[TaiPing]

Karin and Sakura needs to be back ... with breasts.

[Lvl.3]

Like someone said, we don't know the time line (another dumb thread). However, it's no alpha time line, it's a true sequel. I have to admit, I too was hoping to see Ryu with a few Gray hairs.

Actually, I was kinda hoping after SF2,but before 3rd strike. Call it SF beta.

[Gutter Trash]

it should be like Western comics and western cartoons were the characters do not age or the characters age really slooowly.

Weather it's Spider-Man comics or Simpsons cartoons. Having a slow age rate insures longevity of the cast .

the Japanese however feel the need to age characters for whatever reason with development time is beyond me.

Just because it took almost 10 years to go from SF3 to SF4, the characters should not age 10 years..... if we do that then Ken and Ryu will be on walkers with arthritis.

[Hellion]

http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Ryu
I found this both disturbing and hilarious.
Old folks home. Heh.


Totally unrelated, but funnier.
http://www.uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Terry_Bogard

[SiLLiEMutAfuKA]

I agree with what's said for a few times now, we have absolute no clue what timeline SF4 is in, so anything is possible.

But if you guys think about it, even though all we got was a trailer, I don't think the outcome of the game's look will differ 100% from what we saw in the trailer. Don't get me wrong, it's possible, but that will just totally throw everyone off after watching the trailer when the game comes and Ryu is balding and Ken has a goatee. They can change it to that and then explain that the trailer was simply a 'dream' or a 'scene' Ryu & Ken thought of once again in their younger days.

Overall, characters should look accordingly to what time the game takes place in. But if the trailer is reflecting straight off the actual game, I would say it's not far from SF3 at all; or should I say Ken & Ryu actually look younger o_O. I do believe that Capcom would draw them accordingly to the timeline though, judging from the series of SF.

[ruthless_nash]

you can make the characters look older without looking stupid. Look at hoah in one of the 3d SS games, he looks old and dignified. I always thought ken would look fine in a box beard or something.

[Humbag]

I love how VF has been aging the characters, with Akira now looking like a middle aged guy.

I dont want Ryu/Ken to be like 60 or something but making them older looking (ala 3s) would be cool.

[AKUMA2000]

Depending on the storyline where the game takes place they should look older (not grandparents old) but more mature looking, their martial art skills are refined from battle experience with battle scars to show from their years of fighting.

[Hawk]

Option three.

This thread wins.

[2agingMonk]

I hope they try and be a bit more original this time. IMO, Street Fighter 3 was definitely a step in the right direction. I'd like to see them handle this sequel similarly to how they handled Garou: Mark of the Wolves. Quality, simple, unique yet familiar.

I really hope they don't go overboard with the shotos again. Maybe start to show some variations of those types of players. I'd like to see them finally start to make Gouki more deranged/ravenous than he has been and really distinguish him from being a maxed out Ryu clone. To me, for a guy who's been completely possessed by murderous intent, Gouki just seems a bit too composed and 'clean'. I think his moves should start to be a bit more wild and untamed [one-handed thrown hadoukens maybe]. Not neccessarily like a complete lunatic, but I'd just like to see him shy away from the typical Ryu style. I always thought Gouki looked more badass without his gi. or at least ripped.

Same with the Ryu/Ken's styles. Ken should be much more noticeably flamboyant and flashy with his moves and should not entirely play like Ryu. I'd like to see more variations of shoryukens or hurricane kicks from him. It might even make sense to get rid of his gi and give him more casual-wear.

Ryu probably should be left with essentially the same style. His whole thing is 'refinement' instead of creativity like Ken. I'm just hoping they don't keep rehashing the exact same basic animations for the same moves.

I wouldn't want them to go TOO crazy with the beards and stuff like you guys are suggesting though. Facial hair, sure.

[ZEBES]

I'd like seeing Ryu with *some* beard, like this Akiman Sketch:
http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/2152/829d740dll1.jpg

and I'd love seeing Zangief with some grey hair/beard.

[Zazzarius]

i'd like some sf3 age, maybe a little bit older but not OLD.

A lot of people are asking for an older Sakura after seeing the older her in the manga

i missed this. pics plz.

[Nickoten]

I'd like to see an older Ryu and Ken, at least in their 30s, who maybe take the place of characters like Oro or whatever. Not in that they'd be extremely powerful, but moreso that they're not pursuing any kind of personal vendetta or anything - they're the "enlightened" fights, so to speak. They kind of went with this angle in SF3 it seemed, and I really liked that. It'd be nice if they could take that further here. Hell, maybe even have them be like midboss characters or hidden.

[TaiPing]

I want Ryu to be like 45 years old. Fighters are more deadly as they grow older (this does not necessarily mean strength) because they are more experienced. I don't want Ryu to be like ... 22 years old.

[Old_V3]

I think that aging would be better, but as with most people said not by much though, like an older Ryu and Ken would be nice but not around the age of Oro or something (although an Oro-influenced Ryu would be cool).

[lexicon of rage]

I have said this in other places before, but I require capcom to make up for all of the beard hate in earlier games by making this the most beard-heavy fighter of all time. Also, a few less eyes in the mix wouldnt hurt.

And of course Sean, but older, and with breasts.

[Nickoten]

I'd like to see Ryu with a beard, too, but I don't think that's going to happen if the trailer is any indication. :(

[lexicon of rage]

Luckily it isnt a trailer. Teasers are meant to give people something concrete other than the word of a shifty video game company. I dont think capcom knows whats going on with street fighter four at this point.

[Jorant]

I won't vote because the options are all gay, but yes... I think they should look older. That's what makes MOTW and Tekken cool. I'd really like to see the characters age. Have Ryu's gi be beat to shit, since all he does is fight fight fight. Have Ken's son in there. I'm willing to bet not many characters will return, but if they do, make them OLDER. It's been 10 years, for crying out loud.

[Shin Sho-oh-ken]

I just really hope that Oro's ending is canon where he trains Ryu, thus making Ryu have a different fighting style, which is a good start if they want to get rid of clones.

And what, have Ryu fight like Oro now?

No thanks.

[ElderGOD]

Have Ryu and Ken look like in the trailer.

I hope Makoto will be in this one and they better not make her old.

Same for Chun and the rest of the cast.

[o8z]

This is something I've thought about often in the past. I can see it going both ways.

It seems that many players identify with characters like Ryu and Chun Li as archetypes, as unchanging ideals. Even as the game evloves around them, their place in the fantasy remains intact, timeless.

I can see the appeal to this, but after spending so many hours inhabiting a game character, I like to think of it as something that can grow and change, as a real person would. Maintaining this fantasy requires characters that age and change in appearance from sequel to sequel. Their gameplay evolves with each new game, why not their design as well?

Characters that age can grow and become stronger, take on students, go in unexpected directions. I've always liked "old master" characters like Gen and Oro. It would be nice to see how a person like that is formed by their life experience, to see a personality emerge through many incremental changes. What kind of fighter will Ryu be when he is 50? 75?

Or Chun, for that matter. It seems like in most fighting games a female character has to be young and sexy. Nothing wrong with that, but let's not limit ourselves. I'd love to see a middle-aged Chun (dressed differently, I'd guess) raising students like the little girl in her 3S ending, who might be ready to fight by the time of SF4.

Of course there should always be characters in a game that represent the new blood, the rush of potential in the young. But the familiar cast should age. :tup:

[TrueSephiroth]

As a player who's always played Ryu through his numerous incarnations in games that he's been in since SF1...all I can say is this. This is me considering that SF 4 is taking place not long away from SF3, so with that notion, I wouldn't mind Ryu looking slightly older, I agree in that he should look something like his SF3 counterpart but more rugged.

He'll never leave his gi...like ever, as stated by Capcom's statement about his gi "when wearing his gi, he is always training." So the notion of him ever leaving his gi is when he's hung up the gloves to dry and has finally accomplished his goal, or has just simply stopped training all together.

That's the only time I'll ever see him taking off his gi, otherwise the guy will be wearing it always. I would really like to see Sakura fully matured, as to her outfit...well...let's hope that she wears something a little bit more appealing then her idol (although Ryu imo is the only character who can look simplistic yet badass). "Maybe" even possibly giving her longer hair??? I wouldn't mind her still sporting the white bandanna though.

Imo, Ken shouldn't change too much at all, he imo should age slower then Ryu from a psychical standpoint. Gouki should definetly have more grey hair though, and Sean if he's in SF4 should have a goatee or something, that would be pretty pimp imo.

Chunli imo should stay the way she looks facially from SFIII, however I would like for them to make her legs less exaggerated, because I really liked her smaller more toned down look from the Pre-SF3 days more.

That's all that I can think of for now.

[B&B]

I always hoped that Ryu would look old in SF IV
By old I mean Gouken old. With a beard, and scars and shit.

Co-sign.

Wait, I thought color change was the best they could do. IIRC, Ryu had brown hair in the alpha series, but he had black hair for the SF III series.....

Ryu should look older, IMO.

[white shadow]

Cammy with spider veins awesome!

[Gimpy]

Maybe a bearded Ken and semi bald Ryu? Cmon guys, give the game a "human" feel.. We all age, we all die sometime. The original SF players are gettin up there in age, so should their counterparts. Plus, you could throw Chun Li in a wheel chair (say Bison crippled her) Im sure shed be as effective as ever regardless the handicap...



No semi-bald Ryu. :wasted: But I would like to see Ryu with semi-long hair wearing the headband. And they should have an alterante uni for him ala Tekken 5 with some of the characters.

[BunnyHead]

Well they should actually be in there 40's
..well alot of them like Ken, Ryu, Chun li

but I dun want them to look to old

honestly I hope they look different from the trailer
Ryu kinda...looks like a gorrilla:confused:

I hope they look a lil bit older though

[Zazzarius]

in summary:

ryu with old man beard = no thanks
sakura with big bubz = yes please

[Kuprin]

My thoughts:
- Karin is twisted and greedy, an evil corporate scion and the main villain. Think Dictator style evil, just with a wicked Cruella DeVille style - not quite that old though, and more sexy.
- Sakura has been so broken by her friend and rival's actions that she does the one thing she can do to set things right - train with Gouki and let loose her Murderous Intent.

Obviously Ryu would be another main player in the plot; Ken, Sean, Gouki, and Dan also could be. It could also show a return of Sagat as a side plot, and whatever new characters bring.

How about an old and burned out Dictator with no Psycho Power, and one of his supers is Psycho Awakening, where he goes all Shin Bison on people with a timer on it?

[Zazzarius]

My thoughts:
- Karin is twisted and greedy. . . wicked Devilotte style.


fixed for capcom goodness :wgrin:

[Sano]

Depends on when the game takes place but I think a lot of the designs are classic and shouldn't be tinkered with too much.

[El Ton-K]

I would personally like to see Ryu look kinda like Gouken, all full of scars and with a huge beard

[El Ton-K]

I always hoped that Ryu would look old in SF IV
By old I mean Gouken old. With a beard, and scars and shit.

You stole my idea I told you about it

[Wai]

none of the street fighter games are linked. every street fighter game is an alternate universe. Think about this for a moment.

[Terry_nb]

I'd welcome a more mature cast, too. SF had a long way to go to reach part IV and it would be great to see some chars developing further.

I don't agree with beards through, why do people always think first of a beard when it's about aging chars? Same for scars ..., some are nice and quite real but don't go overboard. I mean look at the 35 years old Terry, he didn't need a beard or hundred scars to look aged and somehow still keep something of his old design.

However, I think a more unshaved look for Ryu would fit him well and ads a bit to at least his physical development.

On a sidenote, a like 35 - 40 year old Chun could still look good. Of course not like being 20, but the modern make up, clothes etc. change stuff nowadays. One can't deny that fact.:sweat:

[Sano]

none of the street fighter games are linked. every street fighter game is an alternate universe. Think about this for a moment.

Not to open a big can of worms but even so for the purposes of staying on topic in this thread, Sven of Capcom USA did say "...where it fits in the canon" when talking about SF4 so at the very least it seems that a timeline where this event will fit into place will be considered. At the very least, all of the SF character's birthdates still remain at this point.

I guess we'll see how they handle things though, a lot of the characters are getting old and they may wish to drop birthdates.

As for Ryu having an unshaven look, Dante of Devil May Cry got it this year so maybe next time. :rofl:

[JackTenrac!]

...it's Street Fighter, not KoF.

[coco_j]

I guess we'll see how they handle things though, a lot of the characters are getting old and they may wish to drop birthdates.

They really fucking should. I think they kinda have anyway, I don't see them being mentioned past SF2, unless in a book or whatever.

[Sano]

They really fucking should. I think they kinda have anyway, I don't see them being mentioned past SF2, unless in a book or whatever.

For what it's worth they do mention birthdates in versus games but only when it suits them. Like, they'll mention Chun-Li's birthdate but they won't mention Sakura's because she's frozen at 16 in all of the crossover games. :rofl:

[Gimpy]

You know what I was thinking about? You know when SF 2 came out, and years later it was found out that Capcom USA might have translated it the wrong way. So if SF 1 came out in 86 and Alpha is the remake that would mean Ryu and Ken were probably 17 in 86. Jump five years later to 91 with SF 2. Both of them would be around 22 and they looked like they were around that age in most of the artwork for the game. Jump ahead, again, to 97 when SF 3 came out. it would be six years later and Ryu and Ken would be about 28 probably. So we jump again to 08 when SF 4 is suppose to come out. Ryu and Ken, according to my thinking:lol:, would be about 38 or 39. They really wouldn't look that old.

[Hisham]

Alpha wasn't a remake, it was a storeline bridge between 1 and 2.

Just to let you know.

[ToyRobotTerror]

Bison should have a psycho-powered wheelchair

[vasili10]

SF1 came out in 1987. It's about the only game that remains as coinciding with the same time in the SF universe as its real-world release, and remains the axiom for the SF universe's timeline due to seniority.

As Hisham said, Zero's not a remake. It's the fleshing out of the gap between SF1 and SF2, a gap that was four years and now is six years.

For the time being, Ryu and Ken are frozen at the most 35 and 34 respectively. How old they'll be in SF4, only time will tell.

[nf0x]

I wouldn't mind if Ryu and Ken got more of the Terry treatment from Garou. Though I think it'd be hard for anybody to grasp Ryu without hi Gi.

[Arsenal]

Although aging is appropriate in some games/series/works of fiction, I think SFIII ages are were the characters should stay. Just like how Superman will ALWAYS be early-mid 30's, the SF crew should stay where they are... I don't want aging like Metal Gear Solid 2 ~ Metal Gear Solid 4.

[bodler]

yo i heard somebody say he saw a screen or info of sean wearing a jersey..any links?

Sakura could be older.

And wearing something different.

[Sasmasta]

A non-scantily clad outfit perhaps? :wonder:

[Avery]

Non?

[n8archer_XI]

The fourth poll option summarizes the answer to every question in the SF4 section of the forums. Who cares? Besides, it's obvious Ken is going bald...

[bodler]

ryu will only have one ball left due to overtraining ken wont be in it cos he said hes to rich for this shit sean will fight with a mic and a jersey akuma will be fighting on a wheel chair therefore he will be using a gun urien is dead according to the storyline yun and yang are to fat to fight because theyv been eating to much in Gen's restaurent Hugo had gay sex with zangief and his now banned from sf tournaments chun li has now become a hong kong whore cos she lost her police job and will enter to get some money cos shes a poor whore dudley has been beating his wife becose his wife was seeing ken and is now in prison wow wata gentlenman twelve has gone psycho cos he doesnt have a penis necro got yoga fired and killed by dalsim because dalsim couldnt handle an other motherfucker taking his place ibuki is smoking crack and is all fucked up elena will go to the tournament to get some money for surgery cos she complains about beeing black without a fat ass oro said he still wont use his other arm but will use his penis and has more mucus alex has exploded due to overuse of steroids makoto decided to become a trangendered therefore she has been trown out of her town and dojo and will enter the tournament to try to survive on the streets Q will enter the tourney to get some new cloths we discoverd that remy is guiles little brother and will enter the tourney hoping for guile to be there to get revenge on him because guile used to rape him.

this is the only info we have for now.

[Spinning Beat]

elena will go to the tournament to get some money for surgery cos she complains about beeing black without a fat ass

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[GouShRyuKen]

it would be nice to see a scar on Ryu a la Sagat.

[coco_j]

^ Going in the opposite direction on his chest, from the Tiger Uppercut. That would be cool.

[bodler]

^ Going in the opposite direction on his chest, from the Tiger Uppercut. That would be cool.

whats the point, its not like we will be able to see it since ryu wheres a Gi.

[coco_j]

Well obviously he wouldn't wear his gi top. *gasp* Or, have it off before the fight, and would put it on as his intro, or takes his top off to reveal the scar in a win pose, whatever.

It's obviously not gonna happen, was just a thought.

[jabhadouken]

I want to see Chun Li's dentures fall out whenever she whiffs a kara throw. :wgrin:

[jabhadouken]

we discoverd that remy is guiles little brother and will enter the tourney hoping for guile to be there to get revenge on him because guile used to rape him.

This would explain so much, lmao!

[Bass X0]

They should age. I'm expecting Street Fighter IV to have plenty of new characters anyway, I find it pretty stupid when the years pass but characters don't age (King of Fighters does this).

And I'd love an adult Sakura.

[bodler]

i wanna see chun li vs elena booty contest wooop wooop!!!! --_--

[Zulu]

I want to see Ken look like aged Ryo:

http://www.fightersgeneration.com/characters3/ryo-buriki.gif

[Master Chibi]

Everyone should be wearing diapers.

[bodler]

they should add a takkyun fighter. and they better keep sean hes the only one who keeps this shit gangsta

[Lvl.3]

What was the timeline between 2-3? If that same amount of time passes on between 3-4, then yes. Ryu and Ken should look like they've aged a bit.

[bodler]

theyr just gon look difrent, im just wondering how they gon make sean look older, maybe theyl make him less teenager like and more adult like ryu and ken in sf3

[jabhadouken]

Meh.

Sean ought to be in SF4, and he ought to be ever scrubbier than ever... but with the added attribute of having contracted AIDS between SF3 and SF4.

From Remy.

That way, even after someone beats him, there's a chance that they'll lose stun bar/life bar and/or the ability to do specials/supers, the effects compounding as the rounds go by, crippling them to the point where they willl be unable to actually beat the game.

Hell, have him cut himself as a taunt - that ought to keep his opponent off of him long enough for him to maybe chip out a win.


...either that, or Capcom could actually give him some skillz this time around. (And no, GA Sean doesn't count... damn it :sad:.)


Sadly, between the two options above, the first is the more probable one.

the boss should be revived shen long with the kiiling aspec of ansetsuken that would be fuckin cool..or spirit shenlong, or or shenlongs spirit taking over some mofos body. althou hes good guy but they will find a way to make him evil

^ It would be dope if you could spell.

What was the timeline between 2-3? If that same amount of time passes on between 3-4, then yes. Ryu and Ken should look like they've aged a bit.

It's around 4-5 years between 2 and 3.

If Sean gets scrubbier in SF4, then that will be proof that he's the most idoitic fighter to ever grace fighting games. Not even Dan is stupid enough to run towards Ryu repeatedly and get hit by a Hadouken mulitpe times.

if you cut out all your swearing then you'll have enough time to correct yourself and still type a post in the same time it would have took normally.

[Shin Sho-oh-ken]

No, they should look younger.

Wtf, what a dumb thread. They'd be stupid to not have characters look older considering SF4 is progressing the story.

[COMMONSENSE]

Meh.

Sean ought to be in SF4, and he ought to be ever scrubbier than ever... but with the added attribute of having contracted AIDS between SF3 and SF4.

I wouldnt say that play the first two street fighter 3 and sean was beast. New team that came threw on third strike had a different opinion about sean and look at him now trash. Anyway street fighter 4 older chracters and SEAN should be awesome

Ergo, GA (Giant Attack) Sean doesn't count, being a qualifier in my post. :bgrin:

...largely because the sheer brokeness in SF3 that came before 3S, made 3S look like a winner in comparison.

I kinda don't want that level of brokeness in SF4. :lol:

GA Sean was hella fun though.

Well i guess we both can agree a good sean would be nice. We already have one dan we dont need two. He was young in third less see how his training has paid off.
