Is that supposed to be Alex on the left?

Hard to tell; I watched the video on chrome and enlarged the screen to try and see it more clearly, but it just looks like a guy with a brown shirt and green pants.
 
Written with letters. In a series that uses roman numerals. And is currently reffered to as Alpha by marketing. It can still be a mainline game and be distinct/seperate from the others.

Zero doesn't have Roman numerals, does it? Roman numerals themselves are letters. It's called Alpha outside of Japan and changing that would just confuse people, it's as much of a mainline game as anything else is.
 
What's the hivemind opinion on Guile being the last vet? I guess for my tastes, having Charlie and Guile in the initial roster is a missed opportunity for some variety, but what are some other thoughts?

considering the recent tendency of the cast, having guile would add variety.

I'd rather Charlie just take his place but they're only superficially similar, to be honest. If Guile makes it in I hope they change him up quite a bit, probably moreso than any of the SF2 characters in V.

There's also a chance Zen is a replacement for Dhalsim like Laura is "replacing" Blanka and Sim seems to be the only competition for Guile for that spot.

Guile would bring a needed playstyle . Plus dudes whole involvement in sf has been for Nash....he needs this to finally go home and be a family man

I think it's one of the more likely guesses. Guile and Nash no longer play like each other, Guile represents a playstyle not really included in SF5 at this point from what I can see and he's a popular classic character.

His V Skill will be him whipping out a comb and then tossing it like Birdie's can. Calling it now.
 
"Alex and Urien are FOR SURE going to be in"
"Alex and Urien are probably DLC"

How the times have changed.

The Siliconera leak was looking pretty reliable for a while. Everyone is assuming Zen is the last new character because Bogard's other info was right, it's the same deal.
 
It's probably not Alex, but it's kinda funny that people are focusing on the shirt like Alex is physically incapable of wearing anything other than a tank top or bomber jacket.

The leaks had so many accurate long shots that you have to think that Urien and Alex are in development. Just somewhere along the line they decided to switch them out with Zangief and possibly Dhalsim. Fear of not having enough SF2 characters, probably.
 
In motion it still looks like red light artifacts on the shoulders from the headband (to me). Until 100 percent shown otherwise: Alex first gotta fix his truck before he can enter the tourney but he in there.
