do you guys think that aruze-snk-brezza-eolith- whoever is making kof will they ever get caught by capcom. i mean snk had terry, iori, k, and ryo as main characters in kof (if you count aof as one). in the street fighter storylines the only one they had is ryu, will he ever be replaced by new generations?

Alex is the main character of SF III, though only fans of the big lug; such as myself with ever admit it.

I considered Alex to be the main character in SF III, although I'm not a big fan of him.

They (capcom) will..........
It is not logic when Ryu never get old!...
Perhaps his son and Ken;s..... :cool:

J' Kusanagi · May 15, 2002

They need to. Alex isn't good enough to be a star. They need someone cooler. With a better style quicker style.

SPINMASTER X · May 15, 2002

An older Sakura or Sean could be a good candidate for a new main character. But truthfully no one will ever be as good as Ryu. Have you ever heard the phrase "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"? It comes to play in the Street Fighter Series.

J' Kusanagi · May 15, 2002

Still. I think Ryu and Chun Li should have had a son or something. Or maybe Ken's Kid Mel could be cool. Or how about something really intersting like Bison and cammy's kid. Dude Street Fighter needs to start showing its age and making a real new generation. R

geohound87 · May 15, 2002

CAPCOM should just put Ryu's brother Shun or Sakura and Ken's son Mel or his apprentice Sean as the new main rivals. ryu could be a final boss.

Alex's style is fine with me. I've had my fill with the main character who can win on two moves alone anyway. How many main characters lacked a fireball &/or uppercut anyway?

That's debatable. Never liked Ryu and Capcom hasn't done much to change my feelings toward him either.

BTW, Happy birthday Spinny.

jeff bogard · May 17, 2002

so what about making some sort of mark of the wolves on capcom. you know with Mel, Sean and Sakur as main Chars.

Hun · May 17, 2002

Alex is good enough as the main character since he is the main character of the first SF3, he kinda remind me as a Kyo-type character since he changed from an arrogant fighter to a cool fighter overtime,or Necro since the K' character is somewhat similar to him(They were both used as guinea pigs which is probably the most important) or even Yang and Yun since KoF 2002 is gonna have a mainland Asian main character.

YeldellGW · May 17, 2002

How about a main character that doesn't share a background story/etc. with one of SNK's? That's why I love Demitri; he's evil (How many evil main characters are out there anyway?). Personally, Ken's got Alex beat in the arrogance department.

they should scrap everyone and start from scratch
don't get me wrong i like the old characters, but i want a new cast with new moves.
they should keep the name street fighter though.

Won't ever happen. People didn't care about the beta version of SF III: New Generation because Ryu and Ken weren't in it and so when the final version was released, they were added.

Don't know about the rest of you; but I would've loved SF III more so than I do now if they weren't in the game.

I like the idea of Ryu as the last boss but I don't count Shun as part of the real story.

PoOF!

If its not another guy in a different color Gi, Ill be happy.

Mark of the Wolves · May 18, 2002

They simply need to make Ryu show his age. And besides I look at SFIII as Capcom's MotW. They both virtually throw out all the old characters.

J' Kusanagi · May 18, 2002

Yeah, Remi is pretty damn cool and so is Sean, just need to get rid of that basketball stereotyping shit. Anyways, they still need cooler main characters. I'd like to see it go in a whole new direction. Yin and Yang, Remi, Sean, Eleana, Hugo are great starts. Just throw in some cooler characters that are as hot as the snk characters like K9999, K', Kyo, Iori. Hell SNK just owns Capcom's ass in the character coolness department. Capcom has to do a whole lot better to compete IMO. They are boring the shit out of me with SF characters!! They need to bring back Karin, Guy, bring over some Rival Schools charcters. All of their characters from other series like Darkstalker, Rival Schools, are much cooler than the SF3 characters.

J' Kusanagi · May 18, 2002

They need to make some BETTER NEW CHARACTERS FROM SCRATCH!!! WITHOUT USING THE SAME STYLES OR VARIANT OF THE SAME STYLES AS OTHER CHARACTERS!!! I mean Ryu, Ken, Akuma, thats where they screwed up at in the first place. Just look at the damn uniqueness which is SNK!!! Necro, twelve, are just plain shit.

geohound87 · May 18, 2002

yeah
just hope ryu has a better son then geese, huh?

Won't argue that point (Hell, Vampire is my prefered series over SF.), but I still prefer most of the SF III cast over that of SF II.

The only characters in SF III I don't care for are

Dudley (I hate boxers; period!)
Twelve (Not big on freak characters of any kind outside of the Vampire series.)
Q (See Twelve.)
Necro (See Twelve. Plus, I wasn't a big Dhalsim and Blanka fan either.)
Remy (Like his look, but hate his gameplay. SF III didn't need a Guile rip-off.)
Oro (There are far better old man type fighters; Gen anyone?)
Gill (Aren't many boss characters I do like. He's not even on the list of the few I do like. Plus, I've gotten sick of this full screen super/DM BS.)

Hell, most of SF EX's characters were better the SF II cast. Also, as I said with Remy, I prefer gameplay over looks anyday of the week. I can't get excited about new, cool characters if they play like an old schoolers; especially ones I didn't care for in the 1st place. Looks aren't everything.

I didn´t care that whats the new main character if Ryu and Ken steals the light of picks,more, I never liked the idea of put continually Akuma of Evil Ryu instead of create new characters... if Capcom put continually put Ryu and Ken, I don´t care that put a new character,Sean of Sakura, the Capcom fans pick the ussualy players that pick everytime...

See that's the problem people still want to pick Ryu or Ken. No one really cares for other people. To me SSVI would come out better if the line-up was something like this:

Ken
Mel
Sean
Sakura
Kyosuke
Karin
R. Mika
Dhalsim Jr.
Guy
Cody
Yun
Yang
Gen
Adon

And depending on who you beat the game with you would either fight Ryu, Akuma or Sagat(all who would become playable after defeating them). And a completely new final boos.
