This guy is the new Dan. Anyone see what he said when he wins?

My old lady, she wants to get a cat, but I’m like, “no way babe!” I mean, those things just meow and meow all day you know? How you s’posed to get to sleep with all that racket? I mean, I guess cat’s [sic] are cute an’ all, but I can’t stand not bein’ able to hear myself think! So…

Man, I love the localization. I haven’t laughed this hard at the Japanese perception of Americans since Earthbound.

First the mexican wrestler and now this fat circus jerk, I know it’s hard adding new characters to a game universe but this is just terrible.

Rufus is an unbelievably bad design, but El Fuerte? He’s awesome.
Not wowed by C. Viper or Seth though. I’m disappointed by the utter SF2-ness of the cast, but it looks like it plays great, and it’ll be nice to play PC Streetfighter without an emulator, so I’m still down. Really hoping they expand the cast for the home release though.

I’ll buy it on PC. Then I’ll hope someone comes up with a mod or hack to permanently delete this character (but without causing any game issues, for example crashing when the game wants you to encounter him, etc). Then I’ll have fun.

You can get decent imported Hori arcade sticks at specialist game retailers. You know, the real arcade quality shizzle that makes the ones out in Europe look pathetic.

I can’t wait for this, all i need is a GOOD joystick not that shoddy crap that is out for PS3/360 already. http://www.arcadeinabox.com is the best I’ve found but I can easily build something for less money.

Street Fighter 4? Come off it, even the fanboys aren’t going to fall for that one. Let’s have some honesty for once and call it Street Fighter 287.

DazzeL: I can imagine it doing incredibly well in Tesco/Walmart, even if it’s not a good fit with the more regular PC game demographic. If they keep the system requirements reasonable and maybe do a bundle with a controller it’ll be big – people who haven’t owned a console since the SNES and have no intention of getting a PS3 might well grab it for PC.

As a regular PC gamer though, I’d get this on a console. The only CAPCOM games I’ve really wanted on PC lately are Dead Rising and Puzzle Fighter HD (and Resi 5 if it’s a good port).

Does he have the obligatory burping + farting special moves every fat beat’em up character since Samurai Showdown’s “Earthquake” had?
