Gill from Street Fighter III was just announced for Street Fighter V, along with Street Fighter V: Champion Edition. (which might be a complete version of the game? It's coming out February 2020, and it seems to include every single costume up to this point along with a gameplay update)

...Hmm, yeah it's really not all that different here. It does smell nice though.

Yeah. This is the third version of Street Fighter V they made. It should have all of the DLC characters from the previous versions. So theoretically, you wasted $60 + DLC money for a version that's now obsolete.

I understand, though don't they do that will all Street Fighter games, especially since II?

No idea. I just know they've built him up throughout SFV's lifespan through Kolin and Urien. It was only a matter of time, really.

That's cool! I always had a feeling Gill would make it in with all the 3 love in this one. Now they just need to add Seth and every Arcade Mode can have it's appropriate boss. I can't wait to pick him up and be a boss!

Did they ever say that anyone with a copy of the original Street Fighter V will get another new update for Champion Edition? Like with the Arcade Edition?

So yeah, pretty excited.

I messed around with the internal clock of the Switch, or at least changed the time for preferred weather conditions and now have a Dragapult.

My team right now, after grinding and trying to find particular Mons, is:

Cinderace
Dragapult
Grimmsnarl
Toxtricity
Corviknight
Bolthund

Pretty impressed with myself that I have a team of entirely Gen 8 Pokemon. I figured I'd pick out Pikachu, or Snorlax, but here we are. I really love the designs of the Pokemon. I really think Turner should stay on as the Design lead, because it's a needed breath of fresh air imo.

I mean, you can pay a reduced price to upgrade your current copy to Championship edition. This is really just an evolution of how they've always done it, only this time, paying $60 for the whole new addition isn't your only option. Remember Street Fighter 4? Be glad you can just pay a few bucks to get the newcomers instead of having to buy a whole new game.

I think Gill has a cool design and some really cool looking moves and I'm excited to finally be able to control him rather than just get my ass beat by him.

Here is another hot take if anyone wants one (Actually, I dunno how many people feel the same way)

We can argue about Death Stranding being nominated for GOTY all day long. I understand its not everyones cup of tea.

However, imo at least, it really should win the “best soundtrack” award. It is absolutely beautiful and I have purposefully took my time walking in the game because of it.

Oh boy. It's less **** now instead of entirely flushed down the toilet. Still can't enjoy the practice.

Okay, I calmed down and took a look at his trailer.

His stage is amazing and his Critical Art is hands down the best one in the game.

They listed something called the upgrade pass in the end slate. So I assume that all current versions of the game will get an update if you purchase that.

It's odd because they already brought back Urien, who's meant to be the balanced version of Gill.

I can't wait to see who else drops in. Right now my bets are that Makoto and Q will show up, considering they are the only two of the top 10 most popular characters in Street Fighter history not to make it in, according to Capcom's popularity poll. Crimson Viper also feels like a solid bet. Maybe Retsu? Just to bring in someone from Street Fighter 1 who's never made the jump into the rest of the series yet. Seth is pretty safe too, he's the only final boss in the series history to not currently be playable. Maybe a Rival Schools character considering that it's part of the Street Fighter Universe along with Final Fight.

Also, I really hope it gets at least one guest character by the end.

But considering I wasn't expecting SFV to get more content at all, I'm almost certain Tekken 7 will get a Season 4 too.

Gill was the bad guy of Street Fighter 3, right?

I wonder what his in-game story is?
Click to expand...
Yeah, he is.

SFV takes place before SF3 in the timeline and it was already setting up the Illuminati with Kolin and Urien, so I suppose that adding Gill was only a matter of time.

Can I just say how surprised I was when I finally picked up SFV and got to Kolin and heard the announcer say "Ko-lean" and not "call-in". I seriously thought it was pronounced that way.

Team Yell are literally just shoehorning their way into the story, and not honestly in a bad way.

I like these guys. They're kind of funny.

Okay, I think Gill looks cool and all, but...

WHY THE HECK IS HE IN HIS UNDERWEAR, and nothing else?
