I can do two Air Slashes with Dee Jay almost back to back, much like Guile with Sonic Booms in SVC: Chaos, but I cannot say the same for Guile.

Weren't Dee Jay's charge times always less?
What gave me that idea was a fight I had as Dee Jay against a Honda, where we were both rapid firing charge moves to the point where I thought maybe the time needed was less.

Native Americans hail from the Americas, not just the modern day United States.

But Capcom was seriously just pulling stuff out of their *** with T. Hawk. He's hella fun to play tho.

I know, but the way he dresses just screams US Native American stereotype.

I find it funny though that people typically don't think of Native Americans outside of the continental US and Alaska. Shows what people know I suppose.

That's what I was saying, that they should at least have included some indication that his tribe is from Mexico. I mean what's with the Bald Eagle?

Had he had a golden eagle, it'd be a completely different thing (lol brown eagle) considering it's on the Mexican flag. Speaking of which, Fuerte strangely has a bald eagle on his costume, but that might have been for aesthetics, but a golden eagle wouldn't hurt it either.

I love using Ibuki. I also think it's awesome how she has a Naruto color scheme.
I sure am having issues using her in SFIV for some odd reason. I realize I relied way too much on parries in 3S.

I was playing today, and I did low kick x2 > ex legs> u2, but missed the link. So my opponent stood up, and got chipped to death anyway.

CODY ALL DAI. I'm the only Cody I've seen online. The only new characters I haven't seen are Hakan, Ibuki, Adon, Cody, and Deejay.
Really? Cody struck me as the new Ken. Oh well, I can't wait until tomorrow afternoon. I wasn't able to get it at my bookstore today, but my friend was awesome since she was able to get her boyfriend who was going to get the game get me a copy as well.

I can't wait to kick some *** tomorrow. Here's my Gamertag:

I guess everyone should post theirs. Come to think of it, what happened to that launch tournament idea? Should we just do it Saturday or postpone it?

I'd say postpone it. Not everyone has it. Plus I need to relearn matchups with Ibuki.
But given how no one has mentioned the tournament idea again until now, I don't know if people are even still interested in doing it.

Also, for anyone with a PS3, my PSN ID is: Izanagi_XIII

That's always irked me. Heck, from what I hear, T. Hawk is hated in Mexico.
Heh, I hear the opposite actually, I heard one of the reasons he was brought back is that people in Mexico wondered why he left, and weren't as happy with El Fuerte. (Which I thought was strange, although he is pretty silly.)

I was glad to hear Hakan had a good reception in Turkey; I like Hakan's character alot. :laugh:

Can't wait to try him out, going to be playing this weekend. Good pre-finals cooldown game.

Is that true about Hakan? The only two Turkish people I know irl are pretty annoyed by him, and one flat out says he was offended.

Ken isn't very offensive, but they made him offensive with the alt. Same with Makoto, a simple stereotype, made into a "All Chinese are poor farmers." Korea hates Juri of course, no one wants to be called evil and a **** in one blow.

Japanese rice farmer, but same deal, she is a country girl (Japanese equivalent of being from the Southern US).

I think why a lot Korean were (initially) dissapointed by Juri was that they were pretty vocal about how "non-Korean" she is, compared to someone like Baek or Hwoarang from Tekken or Kim from SNK. Here's a link where a fan redisgned Juri to make her look more Korean:

I can guess fans from Turkey were similar with sentiments to Hakan.

I thought Makoto was a carpenter?

How is Ken's alt offensive and to what groups is it offenbsive to?

And I'm guessing that Balrog and Dudley both perpetuate the stereotype that black people can't kick?

Dee Jay, Sean, Birdie, and Elena (Who only kicks).
Well you see...

Dee Jay is Jamaican, not black. He just has dark skin. Same thing with Sean being Brazilian.

Birdie was white in SFI.

The stereotype only applies to people of African descent, not actual Africans, so Elena is exempt. However, she is also the only black woman in the game so the stereotype could be extended to mean that while black MEN can't kick, black WOMEN can't punch.

Either way, Capcom is hella racist.

He was pale because he was sick, duh.
No johns, he was white. He's got re-vitaligo. It's the opposite of what Michael Jackson had. Every year his skin gets darker and darker.

Africans aren't of African descent?
Uhh...the quality of the gene gets dilluted through years of, uh, crossbreeding and the uh...**** you.

You are, cracka.
Hey, I find these stereotypes just as bad as anyone else. As someone who is part French, I can say that my memory is just fine, my sister is not frozen in a block of ice, if she were I wouldn't just let her sink into the ocean, and I didn't steal anything from Guile and Charlie.

As someone who is Spanish, I can gladly say that we are all narcissists who kill the ugly for fun by hoping off walls with claws on our hands.

**** YEAH

Fair enough, but even in joking, this statement is pretty stupid:
