So was Seth but Bison still wasn't the boss in 4
Dictator is basically Eggman-tier these days. Doesn't actually do anything directly, it's his experiments going on rampages that do the dirty work.

As in "Heathcliff"
That was wrong. If you are talking about a list of Little Mac, Wii Fit Trainer, Villager, Mii, Pac Man and Mega Man. All 6 characters got in the game.
Second batch of leak came out about 6-8 months later: It was right about Greninja (Pokemon X/Y), Palutena and Shulk. With small amount of evidences that Chorus Men was planned to be in the game but got cut at last minute or so. Situation with Chrom is just too complication for me to explain here.

Hm, I hope Urien is a mid-boss while Gill is the non-playable end-boss (at first, but with Fight Moneyz or microtransaction you can unlock him).
RESURRECTION!!!
RESURRECTION!!!
True, but if I recall correctly, Ken Bogard said that the story is about the fall of shadaloo. I'd imagine Bison would be the final boss in some way if this is the case.

Final battle with Bison, after the first round Necalli shows up in VT form and rips him in half, donezo
It would hilarious if his final death happens almost exactly like Super Turbo.
Balrog bankrupted shadaloo after Bison died, so they beat you to it.

Is Rashid the C.Viper of SFV?
Notwithstanding all the attention on the Siliconera list, I'd be kinda surprised if Akuma isn't part of the starting roster. I don't think there's any question as to his popularity/recognition amongst both the dedicated & casual playerbase alike.
One could make the argument that he'd sell gangbusters as DLC, but seeing as how this game still isn't fully ala carte like KI or DOA5, & people will need to shell out for that $60 disc/full game before they can even think of purchasing Akuma, it'd be like putting the cart before the horse. I'm sure there'd be some sitting on-the-fence that would be ultimately won over, but they (Capcom) would also have to work harder to get the message out as opposed to riding the pre-launch hoopla. Seems like a big gamble.
Then again, maybe they feel the game has garnered enough positive reception thus far & don't need him to sweeten the pot.

This isn't a thinly veiled wish for the character; I don't even really like him 
Just trying to look at this from a more casual/passing-fancy perspective.

Not that kinda Vortex.

I think Akuma is definately first in line for DLC if he isnt in the starting roster.

Obsessed with 4chan
Yeah he reminds me a lot of Viper, from both lore and gameplay perspectives. Uses similar gadgetry to create his special moves (wind-based, whereas Viper was earth/fire/lightning) and seems to have crazy mobility/mixup potential.
uh we already know they are, just not when.
now it'd be weird if they didn't announce it at the Sony presser.
It'll probably be there. Saturday night in america right?

The website says they will announce a character it just doesn't say what day during TGS. People think it will be on the 20th because they think Momochi "introducing" the new character on stage (for capcomtv) means he will be part of the reveal, but that's not the case. He "introduced" Ken in late July on capcomtv when Ken was actually revealed in early July at Comic Con. To introduce in that context is just to demo the character so the audience can get a feel for the character.
edit: To be clear, I'm not saying they won't introduce the new character on the 20th. Momochi may very well be part of the character reveal on the 20th. I'm just saying that they in the past used "introduction" to mean demo so it doesn't automatically mean he will be part of the reveal.
no that's tonight in america, 11hrs from now
hahahaah damn I'm completely out of the loop, thanks for the tl;dr;
Tonight?! Damn, had no idea, there was a article on EH saying saturday night would be the presentation, but it's probably just Momochi showing off the new character, like KidA said earlier

I've been considering the likelihood of Akuma being in the starting roster after Matt's comments. When I think of characters that I'd expect to be in a SF game, the four that come to mind are Ryu, Chun Li, Ken, and Akuma.
I initially thought he was one of the few definite shoe-ins, but the no clones talk, ken's reveal, and the siliconeria rumors made me stray away from that initial thought. I know he's not really a clone, I just thought they'd refrain from putting too many shotos in the starting roster. I expected at most two. but I'm beginning to reconsider that. We'll see.
It could be at 12am PST tonight, when Sony's TGS event is taking place, if not then the 20th when Capcom's event is taking place.

If it's not Final Fight then crossover chances with other Capcom properties are diminished. This is SF, not MvC, lol.
I think he means chances for a new RE or DMC game not characters.

Well this is an odd thread to ask in, right?
I hope DMC5 happens. Maybe it will since they did drop that DMC4 remaster a few months back.
One of the capcom UK guys said after 4 before 3.
Timeline wise, this is supposed to fall between part 4 and part 3. R. Mika didn't change at all, so going to assume Karin won't either...although I do like the changes made to Nash and Bison, so I kinda wish they would...
It's either before 3 or they retconned stuff because in 3 Chun-Li had retired from the police force and in 5 she's still a police officer.
Although I guess she retired before 4 and came back so who knows?
Edit: The people above me. That's who knows.

Oh shit. You got a link?
Here is an evidence if anyone care enough about it.
Ono will come out dressed as Karin's butler and get hit in the face by a tray.
