Street Fighter V (PS4/PC exclusive)

So he's Wolverine?

He seems to have the Beserker Barrage, something resembling the Tornado Claw and a powered up state similar to the Beserker Charge.

If so, will he be just as cheap and scrubby to use as Wolverine was in the early Marvel/Capcom beat-em-ups?

Wolverine was ridiculously button-bash friendly, especially from CotA up until about MvC1.

I'm still hoping to see Karin - then again, I just want a fast character with Gouken/Geese Howard-style counter moves.

Hmm... I think I need to see more. At the moment a reworked Honda would have been more interesting as the Wolverine comparisons hold true and the character look is a bit too close to the previous Capcom/SNK type 'demon' or 'devil' variants of characters which have always been a bit boring. From Evo and the trailer though the games speed seems to be about right now.

You've basically defined the point of the Marvel series.

Watching it again, he even has Wolverine's dive-kick.

Necalli looks interesting if a bit strange. I'm still hoping for R.Mika and Alex I think they both have not a appeared for a while and are a bit different.

Looks spot on.

[fuse]

Oh man, he's so derivative. Look at him, with his kicks and his punches.

[bash]

He looks almost like an Omega Red x Wolverine mash up. Not blown away by his look or feel but interested in his back story.

[danholo]

Not big on fighting games but the X-Men ones were fabulous and was one of the unoriginal gamers who always chose Wolverine.

The beta has been extended after it launched with login issues

[fuse]

I tried this morning and no dice. Was trying to be quiet though, so only would've been pad play. Later on though, ohhh, it's on.

[randombs]

Love Ono's tweet apologising for causing inconvenience. Like he tripped over the server's power cable or something

[shaffy_oppa]

Not really any good at sf but looking forwards to giving it ago. Hopefully can log on later today.
