Will Capcom reveal who is the 5th character next week?

 

[nk4e]

The hints were:
This new character hasn't been in any SF series before and its a girl.

 

[Spektru]

@LamborghiniSV Unfortunately Alex is impossible.
See what nk4e wrote. In addition to that, the 5th character is from SF comics.

Nobody playing SSF2THDR anymore? I just got the game btw. (PS3 version)

I never play HDR, but I wouldn't mind playing... if our locations were closer.

So I got eliminated from a league match yesterday, 7-1. I knew it was all going to go downhill after losing two matches straight because I didn't know what to do to break my opponent's autopilot ground game. It's not as simple as simply demon flipping in because that's just plain obvious. I don't like to play lame, but Gouken's neutral game does dominate when playing a lame fireball keepaway. Maybe that's the problem I'm suffering with.

Online's fine (apart from time issues), is it PS3 or Xbox 360? I have PS3 version.

 

[AOS-]

PS3. Add me if you like.

 

[nk4e]

I like to play HDR

Either, one of Ibuki's friends, Ken Masters fiance Eliza, or a unknown background character.

So, Guilty Gear Xrd will be coming to the PS3/PS4 sometime this year. Confirmed by the developers via twitter.

I came.

 

[AOS-]

So, Guilty Gear Xrd

It has bugged me for a while. How exactly is that even pronounced? "Surd"?

 

[nk4e]

Either, one of Ibuki's friends, Ken Masters fiance Eliza, or a unknown background character.

Or one of the Dolls aside from Julie or Juni.

@AOS- It might be turd....or X-urd....lol

I have been watching some of the videos for Super Smash Bros. for the Wii U. Excitement grew as I noted MegaMan and Little Mac joined the roster. Here are dream matches I could predict as far as all-time matches are concerned:

* MegaMan vs. Samus
* Little Mac vs. Captain Falcon

MegaMan seems like a more dynamic Samus. Sad thing is, both MegaMan and Mario are my favorite video game characters ever. So I have to imagine a Mario vs. MegaMan match.

Little Mac rather grew on me when I saw that video. Man! Since when did Little Mac get so fierce? Toughest dude to wear a pink tracksuit! . Joking aside, Little Mac is going to be quite fun to use. In fact, using him will almost be as entertaining as playing the old combo-happy fighters of the Killer Instinct series.


Great looking title regardless.

Hindsight, it depends on the player.
Megaman vs Samus:
Its probably a 6-4 match up because Samus can be a good keep away and she has good normal pokes.

Mario vs Mega:
Probably a 5-5 match up because I can see that they can play alike.

 

[AOS-]

Samus despite all the tools she has doesn't seem to be an entertaining character to watch. I find a bit more enjoyment watching Link play. But then again, are there even any top Link players?

 

[nk4e]

Mew2King mains Link....I think he switches between a lot of characters.

 

[AOS-]

He does? What happened to Metaknight?

 

[nk4e]

I think he switches in between. He tends to pick Cap. Falcon also.

 

[DeathSmiles]

I don't think I've ever seen M2K play Link. I mostly see him use Marth. Especially in Melee/PM.

It has bugged me for a while. How exactly is that even pronounced? "Surd"?

I believe it's "Ecks-zard".

 

[nk4e]

 

[DeathSmiles]

That vid is from 5 years ago. No wonder I have not seen it. Anything more recent?

 

[nk4e]

 

[DeathSmiles]

Thx. I don't know if he really uses him anymore (I don't see him in tourney's, at least). Marth gets most of his time, when he is serious.

CAPCOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Spektru]

"there's only been about maybe four people who got it right" Troll phrase of the year!

Disappointing is the key word for this, we don't need another Cammy.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

Technically half the guesses are on the Shadaloo Dolls anyways. The Decapre/Cammy differences seems to be somewhat like Ash/Saiki.

But Saiki (despite SNK Boss Syndrome) is much better for an addition i think. I just wonder if the reception is as mixed as when Evil Ryu and Oni are confirmed 3 years ago?

 

[nk4e]

My first reaction was " YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
