Perhaps they could fit in some Rival Schools characters, done up in 2D? That would make it REALLY interesting. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Hibiki? You know, Lee Rekka would of been a better choice as he has no real weapon. They said 44+, maybe there will be more.

Dunno. in the screenshots of the Madman's Cafe, Yang appears in one of the specials/Dm of Yun. It seems that Yang and Choi will remain only as islated sprites, like Mature.

What the HELL are you talking about? You should be happy that this 'dreammatch' type series we have been waiting for is happening, and getting better with each one. Praises to Capcom for their efforts.

Rock Howard is in?

Yay!

All I need now is K'..........

God I hate that SNK artist who draws those pics...he makes Rock look like a dork. Hopefully the capcom artists will make him look as good as the orignal and not that stupid-hair version....

And that is not even looking at Haohmaru...(>_< )

Rock Howard's portrait looks like K' with blond hair. Mwahahahahahaha...Haohmaru's hair is too 'spidery' looking while Yamazaki...need I say more? <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

OK, I'm confused... The new characters are from CvsSNK2, right? But I notice that the screens look to be CvsSNK Pro. Is this right? I would hope they are not gonna just reuse the backgrounds for 2.

Very cool link, THANKS!

hebretto: Oh, most of the character sketches ain't bad...you should see the Capcom's drawing for Kyosuke of Rival School. *puke* *puke*

NeoTurfMasta: I think the screenshots with the CvS backgrounds are screenshots for CvS Pro. As you noticed, there doesn't seem to be any of the CvS2 new characters in those screenshots aside from Joe and Dan, who are in CvS Pro.

Hmm...

Hmm...

Chang is an AWFUL choice. Just AWFUL. What a freakin' letdown. Andy and Robert had BETTER be in there after this announcement <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">! Who ever asked for Chang to match up with Capcom characters!?!?!?!?! And is that grounds for a lynching?

Rock Howard...cool. No problems there. Wonder what Rock and Geese will have to say to one another when they meet?

Hibiki is not a bad choice, but my reaction is lukewarm. Why not Zantetsu, Kaede, Moriya, Setsuna or (and this would be the best one) Lee Rekka? Who is making these decisions and why haven't they called me about them:P?

I posted my thoughts on Maki elsewhere, but here they are. As long as her play style is similar to Guy's with some minor differences for character differentiation purposes I'll be happy. I feel the need to layeth the Bushinryu smacketh DOWN!!!

Ryuhaku Todo...um...did anybody really care?

Eagle gets a lukewarm reaction from me too...the decision to include him falls under the 'how else can we confuse the fans' category.

I dig Kyo's new outfit, but would have MUCH preferred his Perfect '99 threads, or at least his blue jeans/leather jacket striker getup from '99 Evolution. And ditch the gloves because they look stupid with short sleeves that end above the bicep:P.

ROLENTO!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!! Now HE'S COOL! Finally, a WORTHWHILE character makes it out of the Alpha series into CVS. Any hope for some Maki/Rolento prefight antics <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">? Or maybe we'll get REALLY lucky and they'll throw Guy and Cody in there too. Well, a guy can hope, can't he?

Got no problems with Yun being in there. I'd rather have seen Alex, Ibuki, Elena or Remy but there you have it.

Thank you, seanpyro.

Am I the only one here who is ticked off that Rock is in? Sure he's an awesome character and even a marginal translation should result in several SNK-issued beatdowns, but is there even any pretense at creating a reality for this world to make the characters in the fights something more than animated pictures?

More specifically, how old is rock (given that Geese is alive and Terry is young)??? 5? Is he CVS2's answer to Marky? Say, "Mission... complete!!!" <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

Or has the timeline actually been advanced, and can we expect to see Garou Terry and every character in CVS1 aged over a decade? Doesn't look like it in the screenshots...

neojedi, I don't think they're observing the continuities for these games. They're just throwing everyone together for the hell of it, regardless of age, timeline or storyline relevance.

I'm really curious to see how CVS2 Rock will look compared to MOTW Rock. Will it be as good of a rendition? I wonder...

Maybe Rock hopped in his time machine and went back to get the sword fighters(SS takes place in 1700s, LB in the 1800s), then ran out of gas in 2001. <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">

No Way that could be the only new characters. They're skipping a whole load of awesome old school characters that I know they could put in. Damn!! Where's Mr. Big, Robert or Andy!!! I'm sorry but I'm just getting those anticipations up again.

This is all great news. But when is this game coming out for the Dreamcast if it does come out? Will it come stateside? I hope it does. They better ditch the SFA sprites...lazy people (was going to say bastards but I like Capcom).

Actually, come to think of it, both Nako and Haohmaru should be 6 ft under during the CVS timeline. But for some reason that doesn't upset me as much as the much smaller inconsistency of changing Rock's age. Can't quite put it into words...

As far as what Rock will be like, I don't know but I dread it. If Capcom can shit on Kyo then they are capable of anything.
