If there's one thing to keep us interested in video game golf it's alternate costumes, followed closely by karate masters and top-heavy succubi. Thankfully, however, Capcom is giving us all three in its upcoming Wii exclusive We Love Golf, which will let players dress their golfers as either Street Fighter blondie Ken or Darkstalkers femme fatale Morrigan, among other familiar faces.

While the pair's North American-exclusive inclusion in the game was revealed last March following the results of a reader poll, Capcom took time today to send over some screens showing what we can expect when the duo hits the links on July 15. Check out the shots below, including what Capcom calls its "first African-American incarnation of Ken Masters." Shoryuken!

Why does this look less "homage" and more "creepy" to me?

Looks like dhalsim in drag.

Now if EA would get online multiplayer gameplay in for TW'09, that'd be great.

DOUBLE BOGEY

Ahh this looks well...yeah a little bit on the ridiculous side. I understand the whole pleasing the fans..but uggh..

But Capcom, your possibilities were endless! If I could be golfing as Godot, I would have bought this day one.

Neil: May 16th 2008; 2:39PM

Talk about putting in as little effort as possible.

SoulBlade: May 16th 2008; 2:52PM

Worst Ken Ever.

I nearly wet myself upon realizing Morrigan made it.

Then I realized she looks like a coke whore with wings.

Damn it.

Capcom is retarded:

LOOKS BLACK TO ME. MvC2 should count.

Ken is listed as a caucasion in the official cannon. Color swaps don't stand a chance against the mighty official cannon.

This is a bit too much of a california tan...

Kye: May 16th 2008; 3:42PM

It's well known that Ken's mother is Japanese.

Vince UK: May 16th 2008; 3:04PM

I looked at the screen shots, I cried.

Lonecow: May 16th 2008; 3:24PM

Looks more like He-Man.

Kye: May 16th 2008; 3:43PM

Finally, someone else besides me has noticed it!

Both Ken and He-Man have blonde hair but black eyebrows!

Velops: May 16th 2008; 3:54PM

I suspect it is because the carpet doesn't match the drapes.

funk_dat: May 16th 2008; 3:30PM

Look like he spent a little too much time in that there sand trap without any sun block. He looks like an old beach granny - with the platinum blond mullet to boot!

Ninjakamster (PSN: Chin-Poh): May 16th 2008; 3:32PM

Looks like Dreamcast era graphics, if that.

Fragmit: May 16th 2008; 3:39PM

Well, I now know what Senator Obama would look like if he dressed up like Ken and went out to play golf. Thanks for that.

Kye: May 16th 2008; 3:44PM

If I could dragon punch the ball I'd buy it.

Jacksons: May 16th 2008; 4:12PM

That doesn't look much better visually than Hot Shots on my PSP. Oh well, I'll still get it.

Evan: May 16th 2008; 5:14PM

It would have been much better if they included the actual characters, instead of just costumes for the standard characters.

Also, it's my understanding that you have to unlock those character costumes, which means we'll have to start out playing a character we don't care about, or worst, play as a Mii. It's like Brawl - you can't start immediately with a Mario-vs-Sonic battle because you have to unlock Sonic. Fuck Off! Let me play the good characters I want to play from the start!

Unlockables are an incentive to lengthen the life of a game.

Whether that's good or bad, that's how it is.

Ken Seang: May 17th 2008; 2:44AM

Fugly...

Truth Unknown: May 17th 2008; 3:53AM

This is what you get for setting up a poll for character costumes. Damn fans failed to realize which costumes where going to show up on.

Truth Unknown: May 17th 2008; 3:57AM

Still no Edit function? I guess that's what I get for posting late at night.
