I'm tired of people using the same five characters. This game badly needs a better (more varied) character selection. Which is the only thing I can see wrong with the game right now. The SNK side is decent, but the Capcom side sucks ass.

Edit: You know, the more I think about this game, the more I realize that they'll probably never be able to come up with a decent cross-over game. I'd much rather a totally new series.

You should have followed the AIM conversations of Roufuss and myself as they revealed more and more characters.

1st week: "Dude! Hugo, Shiki and Earthquake!"
2nd week: "Dude! etc. and etc.
3rd week: "......*old character and old character*..."
4th week: "Zangief and Blanka will be next."
5th week: "Balrog and M.Bison. Whoop de fuggin' doo."

When we saw Hugo, Shiks' and 'Quaker, we thought for sure that we'd at last get the variety in a vs. series that we'd been looking for. That enthusiasm was dead at about week three.

Good read, though the game doesn't sound all that impressive.

First off, thinking back on the fifty-wins guy, I’m not sure what to think: should I be amazed that he so thoroughly mastered a game on the first day of its public release, or be annoyed that the game mechanics are so insultingly similar to years-old games that there was no significant learning curve at all?

Three years – probably more – in development or at least planning, and all they have to show for it is a standard Street Fighter engine with a predictable character roster. Sure, the game plays great, is fun, and has no glaring bugs at this point. But I didn’t come out of this experience in any state of awe, wanting to shout out my discovery of this game to the masses or some shit. That’s happened to me before; not now.

One thing I can say for SVC Chaos – and maybe this is really important – is that it avoids the whole MUGEN vibe given off by the first couple of CVS games. That is to say, the characters have been completely redrawn into a new, yet familiar, visual style rather than ripped directly from older games. And yet, I wonder how much this is really going to count for in terms of gameplay.

Still, I want to see this for myself...

Guile looks pimpin' in SvC.

Well, it's about time for some characters that haven't been used as much. There are some good ones in FF3 (Bob Wilson, etc) that are totally being wasted. Playmore should not hesitate to break some ground by introducing some more characters that haven't appeared in CvS 2.

The game does not sound earthshattering, but that doesn't mean I don't want to see it for myself.

Most definitely. I don't want to play the exact same characters 4 sequels from now.

Bob Wilson, Rick Strowd ( I'll say it 100x ) and Andy need to come back.

Well it sounds like it doesn't play or feel anything like CvS1 or 2 so thats good.

I stopped expecting anything mind blowing from this game when the majority of the roster was announced so it'll take some ridiculously horrid gameplay for me to be dissapointed at this point.

Still, was Mr.Karate AND Evil Mr. Karate necessary?

Thank god. I hate CvS2
