Eventhubs grasping at straws on slow news day.
There is 0 reference to Akuma/Gouki through data mining, he's not in the game.

I completely disagree.
On an unrelated note, if Capcom wants to make some serious dough they should let you purchase The Next Door as your menu theme with Zenny.
I think it looks great

Too bad indestructible wasn't found in the data mine

We both had the same unrelated thought! It's a sign.
Change it to Hot Ryu, and it's a 10 million seller
Is there no second impact AST?
lol I've definitely been overexposed to that image by now so it's a good thing it looks good. would love to see some more art like that for the game

When we get Guile, I hope he's still his "2 moves of Doom" self. I love that he's so simple.

When the game releases I bet the DLC characters will have actual 3D models at that point so we should be able to see what they look like. Someone might be able to make them playable too. LeakFighter V, Thank You PC.
This would be kind of a neat place to hear people's reminiscences over finding him in SSFIIX after getting nothing but perfects or super finishes or whatever it was. I can't imagine how exciting that discovery must have been.
We must not joke about grave matters of national security. I would buy at least two copies on principle if they used that song again.

It's boring.
It is just Ryu
Crossing his arms to look like a V
This is the kind of ish that needs to be the cover
If not a group shot then at least something more than just some dude angrily looking at you, we've got enough of those covers already.
This is the only good cover featuring Ryu and V-arms cross

Ah Ono-san... sorry we hurt you buddy. It's not like Akuma was in New Generation, he didn't show up until Second Impact- he'll likely be 2017 DLC.
... I am glad that Ono hasn't been totally broken by the data mining though... troll away!
Nah 3rd strike and mahvel 3 better on artist alone
You do not respect 1990's PSYCHO POWER
But fair enough, I guess. The SFV cover most certainly does not look better than any of these covers, however:

Now I know you trippin' and messin' around, but I should expect that from just being this thread with some of you kids.

The most iconic one.

The Alpha 2 cover is probably my favorite of any video game, so I'll give you that one at least.

I would be down for a Shinkiro cover for SFV... his VS series stuff was all top notch. Of course in an ideal world we'd get a cover from Bengus, Akiman, Kinu, or Ikeno... but I agree the Ultra cover and the SFV cover seem to be trying too hard to appeal to the Call of Duty crowd.

Saturn Alpha 3 looked better.
The US one is kinda funny , just LOL at Zangief holding dat Capcom logo.

Agreed. But we eSports now tho.
Maybe we might get a reversible box art with a more classic design in the back.

I like the Alpha covers. I have a lot of strong nostalgia for the Street Fighter II Turbo cart with Honda, Sagat and Dhalsim too though.
EDIT: YEAH! That one Slamtastic posted below!

I've never seen that last cover but I like how Thunder Hawk is just going all 'come at me bro' and trying to punch away Blanka and ChunLi's kicks
I'm hoping against hope Akuma is going to be in the game during the launch period as a secret boss/later playable character. Not because I think Akuma is hot shit or anything, he's just an inevitable inclusion in the roster and I'd rather get him out of the way early.
That's not likely with Capcom clearly stating that the game will launch with 16 characters and 6 more DLC characters will release in 2016, upping the game's roster to 22. If they weren't so upfront with the roster's numbers I would think they were trying to sneak one past us.

"Oh, is that supposed to be his hair? I drew that thinking his head was a red scallion or something."
or if it wasn't data mined and no tace of Akuma was found.
More or Art's Sim

okay this would make it better

Akuma what is wrong with your face?
That Alpha 2 art is one of the greatest of all time. I hate that alpha 3 artwork though, and think SF5's is much, much better.

Wow, Blanka sure ended up in a lot of promotional stuff. The big three- Ryu, Chun, and Blanka.

The same thing that's been wrong with his face for 20 years now :V

The youngest of Ryus.
But I'd love to see one that fixes his design back to the real one.
Was never a fan of the short spiky black hair they moved to in 3.

It's crazy how MvC3 went so overboard with fanserice considering how terrible the single player options were.
Why does Akuma's hair look as if it started out from skin and evolved to his scalp?
I'd LOVE to have all 6 brand new characters for Season 2 DLC, but knowing Capcom it won't happen.
They could give an entry for each series though, and character which didn't appear in IV either when possible and that would be quite interesting.
My picks:
I: Eagle (already had modern gameplay in CvS2, wpuld fit the Sf5 mood)
II: Akuma (fan favourite)
Alpha: Sodom (very interesting and unique character) or Sakura (10 times less interesting but huge fan favourite)
III: Q (surprisingly high in character polls, could be made quite unique)
IV: C.Viper (best original IV characters where are females)
V: brand new character
Please Capcom gift us this kind of Season 2

Girl got a battle circuit costume. Do you remember what battle curcuit even is? Let me answer that. No

Those weekly blog entries about cool new costumes leading up to the game were way more enjoyable than the non-multiplayer elements of the game hahaYep.

Very pleased that Alex and Urien are dlc and even though I didn't like any of the new characters in SF4 I am not familiar with Juri as she was introduced much later and actually looks pretty cool. So 3 characters there I will definitely put my fight money towards. Hopefully they are involved with the story somehow. It does seem the first batch of dlc characters have story connections.

When's the Magneto alt tho?
