You know some (relatively) old Joes. If the target audience is 30+ then that works, if you are targeting 25 and under at all (and that's a major demographic) then who the heck is Guile and why would I want to play as a boring looking fat guy. New demo, they are gonna like different characters, and I'd actually argue that a bunch of the outcry for Alex came from younger gamers who might not have ever played SF3.
I'm 25 and I know who all these people are. Everyone I talked to about the game before launch asked if characters like Guile or Sagat or Bison were in it. People know who these characters are, even if you don't want to acknowledge it. As for the other part of your argument, how the hell does that make any sense? If they're new to Street Fighter, and they really have no idea who anybody is, then every character is a new character to them. They have no reason to think that Guile or Honda or Zangief are any more or less boring than any other character on the roster.
Personally, I think it's dumb that we even break the roster down into SF2 characters and SFA characters and SF3 characters at this point. They're just Street Fighter characters. It shouldn't matter what game they originated in. If a character has appeared in four out of the five games at this point, I don't think you can argue that they keep showing up because they need to fill a quota of Street Fighter 2 characters. They keep showing up because they're the cast of Street Fighter and this is a new Street Fighter game.

Speaking of, Guile's super should have been Opening Gambit.

does anybody know what sonic blade means? does it just sit in from of him like a trap for like 5 seconds and you can shoot sonic booms through it?

Yea kinda like what you said. Its a stationary sonic boom that can block an attack or you can throw a sonic boom and when it goes through the sonic blade it becomes stronger.

There are a lot of old Joes out there who ask about these characters. They just may not be as vocal online.

Man if Guile still isn't out it's going to be forever until I can get my second main from IV back.
Word. Looks like they just made the hair round. Not seeing a major difference from IV as seen below.

That and the sagat stage are the two best sf2 stages.

Was this a leak? The Capcom Unity post is no longer there.

I think CU is just over capacity with traffic.
But yeah, it technically leaked on Capcom's Facebook first.

That looks like a likely scenario as it's still available on the PSblog

It looks like your wish has been granted. The question is: can he take them off?
better than Ken, where they made him look worseWord. Looks like they just made the hair round. Not seeing a major difference from IV as seen below.
That would be too good.

I don't even understand what I'm looking at.Captain Jack!
What move is this? Looks sick, whatever it is.
His v-skill probably
Seems like the V-Skill. Sounds to me like it will work kind of like a point-blank version of Jin's fireball from SFxT that stays in place.

Damn Guile looks great. Can't wait to see him in his story(original) costume
Jesus Christ. I don't have the strength for a SFV thread right now.

Looks similar to his Alpha 3 version. Let's hope it does a great deal of damage compared to Alpha 3 version. I wonder if it can fully hit opponents in juggle state.

Have to be honest, not feeling mall cop Guile. Also his idle neutral animation looks strange, something bugs me about it but can't quite place it. (in the critical art video, at the very end)
You mean us air force guile

I realize what it's supposed to represent. I still see a mall cop
Lawd. His arms fuckingn exploded.
There truly is a Simpsons image for everything
I'm kinda sad that Guile has no American colors for his liquid thing (though I guess Cammy has that covered, albeit for the UK).
That being said, I am curious to hear Guile's English voice in SFV (Travis Willingham).

That Guile stance is super close to his SF2 sprite.
