I mean on theory would have even welcome actual guy from Thailand getting the Muay Thai slot over Bruce, but Fakuram is good example of TK chara design terrible decline

Yeah it's just a stupid design. Big giant 7 foot Thai guy, huh? Now if they put in a life size Smokin' Jo Nattawut we'd be talking.

Really I want Bruce's gameplay. He was always my favorite character. Was heavily missed in Tekken 7. I even modded Fahkumram to look like a giant version of Bruce but it wasn't the same.

He does look way better with different skin though:

Well, somebody made t work pretty well

Problem is Namco did nothing but copypaste Sagat, removed his signature traits that make him unique and covered it with a fast&furious stupid TK paint and retarded body proportions

 

[Crimson Fury]

Well it looks like another Tekken with no fucking BRUCE.

Imagine how hyped the Tekken community would be if they dropped Bruce on us? Instead we got lame ass Fuckyourmom who nobody liked in Tekken 7.

If I need a Tekken fix I go play Tekken 5DR on RPCS3 now.

Agreed. There's not a lot of Muay Thai fighters who have a multi-grab. Bruce >>that giant fucking idiot.

Speaking of Sagat is he not that popular? He isn’t in SF6 and he wasn’t in the initial roster in 5.

He's popular. Roster choices are designed to be long term and garner long term interest in an IP. For that alone, Sakura, Akuma, Sagat, Cody etc are all gonna be DLC from here on out.

He's popular but sadly they keep some big names to keep hype alive in late Seasons

Sakura to me is shit char, but is undisputed #1 in popularity and she still out
Actually last big poll has been
1Sakura, 2Makoto, 3Alex and none so far is in

To me no Muay Thai in vanilla cast Is deadly sin, Imagine have to wait at least S3 or worse

Hope S3 "leak" Is true:
Sagat, Alex, C.Viper, Ingrid

I dislike Ingrid, but Sagat+Alex would be great, and C.Viper is decent female slot pick

While at it, Sega released Wolf teaser

Wolf looking thick and tight for VF6. Cant wait to see how Big Jeff and the others look.

City of the Wolves bombed terribly. I dodged a bullet by not buying it. I knew this would happen, the game is already niche and many fans were pissed off by these guest characters and the marketing.

Yikes, what a bummer. SNK stays losing. I was hoping this game could bring them back but doesn't look like it. Admittedly I haven't bought the game either. I was going to wait for a steam sale down the line.

I bought it, no regrets as is funny game and season 1 included wich bring my boy Joe is still good deal

Plus Color Edit catched me for hours, wish i got that in SF6

I'm bit suprised that people are surprised it bombed though

Don't even think ronaldo+ganacci played a role, simply is the sequel of a niche game from 26 years ago and tbh is not THAT inspired

GMotW had great cast and designs, CotW newcomers feel kinda bland or weak and most of redesigns of veterans are not that inspired either, and lot models looks kinda clumsy
I like the cell shading art style though, but poor modern snk chara design fail at make it cool

As owner of both i find kinda hilarious is far more enjoyable play Terry and Mai in SF6 than CotW

But to be fair ever been more a Capcom guy, if anything my fav version of SNKers was when capcom did them in CvS lol

easy one

I went ahead and bought Capcom Fighting Collection 2.

Pretty good job with these arcade ports, primarily CVS2 that I'm interested in. They even have an option for a remixed soundtrack, and can get it looking really nice with upscaling and filters. Wish you had more control over aspects of the filters.

I haven't tried online though, I'd get wrecked.

If you ever do venture online and you run into someone who's gamertag is "Wazzler"? Just disconnect because it's Justin Wong.




Wazzler puts the "fun" in refund.

Refund it and use GGPO/Fightcade

Yeah I've been watching him troll the fuck outta people on YouTube, LOL.

I have a buddy that I've been playing fighting games with coach co-op for 20 years so that and fucking around on arcade will likely be my extent of use.

I already have that and every single rom version of it. Still have my OG X-Box physical of CVS2 EO as well.

I gotta support the continued archiving of classics.

I have my copies of Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 and Capcom Vs. SNK for the Dreamcast.

I love having old physicals, especially these days since I've been on PC forever and you cant get anything physical anymore.

The last system I had was PS3 and I got nearly every single fighting game for it. I even went back and bought every single Tekken game that has been released in the JPN region.

You're a legend bro.
