Ultra Street Fighter IV: Is Capcom being a LITTLE less douchey for once?



Okay... if you follow Nerds socialize... then you know how Me (J-foo) and Stormwulf feel about Capcom... we lover their games, BUT WE HATE THEM SO MUCH! WHY DO YOU TEASE AND TORMENT US CAPCOM!? WHY?! WHAT DID WE EVER DO TO YOU!?”

okay... I... I'm sorry... I didn't mean to... go off like that... it's just a reflex at this point...... BUT I WAIT TEN YEARS FOR A THIRD MEGAMAN LEGENDS GAME, AND YOU FINALLY ANNOUNCE IT AND CANCEL A YEAR LATER! WHAT GALL DO YOU HAVE TO JUST GIVE SOMEONE HOPES AND DREAMS AND PULL THEM RIGHT OUT FROM UNDER THIER FEET LIKE AN OLD FILTHY RUG?! HUH!? HUH!? ANSWER ME!.........

okay... I... sorry again... Okay... well... Capcom is releasing “Ultra Street Fighter IV”. WELL, if you bough regular “Street Fighter IV” and got pissed when you had to go out and spend another 50 bucks on “Super Street Fighter IV” in typical Capcom fashion, you guys are probably pissed to hear about “Ultra Street Fighter IV”. Well before you go off the rails like I do, take a deep breath and relax... relax... because for once... Capcom isn't going to pull the douche card on us this time. If you own Super Street Fighter, you can upgrade your game to Ultra Street Fighter for $15. Yeah, you gotta put out $15 bucks, but at least they didn't release it as a brand new game and demand another $60 bucks out of you for once. Though... those of you who bought regular Street Fighter IV... you're STILL fucked!

Now all I gotta do is get Capcom to make Megaman legends 3... and then MAYBE.. just MAYBE I'll forgive them a little bit... MAYBE!



Though, I wonder how people will react to “Poison” being thrown back into the fray. Personally, I love the character poison, not because she dresses in a provocative way, or is overly sexualized, which, lets be honest folks, she IS. I love Poison, cause she fucks with your head. If anyone actually keeps up with the story behind the character Poison, when they brought her over to the States, they decided she couldn't be female, even though she looks decisively female. Well... only in the fact that she dresses in a way that you can't ignore that fact. The reason they decided this is the fact that Capcom didn't want to get sued by “Feminists” for having a game where it's okay to beat on a woman (regardless of the fact that she's the villain and was trying to kill you). So Capcom's BRILLIANT idea? Poison is a Tranny. So it's OKAY to hit someone that LOOKS like a woman, cause she's actually a guy? Man... I don't think they really thought that one through...


but I'll say this, having a Transexual Character isn't a bad thing in a game, not by any means. It actually includes a whole group of people in the world who are for the better part, never really mentioned or spoken of very openly. The only thing I don't like about Poison, is that she protrays a transsexual in a very misogynist manner, and is the butt of several jokes throughout the game series, though usually not intended as insults, but more confusion amongst the various characters in the series who are unsure of the fact they're fighting a woman or a man. So there you go, a small Street fighter history lesson.
