What Capcom needs to do now is take Guy and Cody, make a Haggar model and make a new 2D Final Fight using the SFIV engine.
Because that would be awesome.

Cody and Guy but no Haggar? Horsedookie!

The producers said repeatedly that Haggar would play too much like Zangief otherwise they'd be more than happy to put him in the roster.

It's a common English name (as in in England)
Crazy, I know, but hey. I think the name was there before the term.

I have to admit that I'm a bit dissapointed - 8 additional characters sounds good right?
No Jun from SF3 and if Ibuki is accurate, then there is only 1 slot left meaning max 2 new characters never in an SF game.
I don't think Cody is a reasonable choice and Adon is borderline; Guy is cool.
I would have made the additional 5 unannounced characters be:
Guy, Jun, Ibuki and 2 more new characters, but that's just my opinion.

Ibuki?!
Don't tease me Joystiq.
Don't.

Ibuki is an SFIII character, but I want Alex and Urien, damnit. or Q. hell, even Oro, I don't care. Dudley was hinted at one point.
oh, and does this mean parrying is back? that'd be so awesome.

Dear Capcom,
Just give me Karin and Juni/Juli. Then I'll be happy.
That is all.
Your friend,

Everybody. The whole Capcom fighting roster.
If you don't like them don't use them, but at least we won't worry about anyone being left out.

Yes! Even more incentive to buy this!
Although I'd have appreciated if those three were properly implemented into the story.

Hopefully Cody plays like V-Cody and has the dodge, otherwise he'll be worthless. Unless they give ridiculous damage or priority to his uppercut.
Same with Adon. Make him like X-Adon with the aerial jaguar kick, otherwise he's worthless.
I'm sure they'll nerf both of them though. [shrug]

Come ON Capcom! Haven't you been listening to your NA fans? Cody's prison outfit is HIDEOUS!!
Other than that both Guy and Adon were my SFA series mains (next to good ol Rolento!!) so this will be old home week when it gets released.

Looks like Ibuki's going to be in it, too, judging from the scans. Sweet!
I was hoping for Adon and Guy, though, while a friend was pullin' for Cody.

I don't understand that logic. They would definitley have the same move set but then so do Ken and Ryu, and Akuma, and Dan, and Sakura. Big deal.

two more spots are open, I hope its dudley and ibuki.

Guy, Adon, and Ibuki make me buy 100 copies. I'll be maining Guy/Ibuki now (later Cammy).
2 ninjas in one update. AHAHAHAH~
I wish they'd have given Cody his Final Fight uniform. I hated him in SFA3. Well hopefully it'll be a DLC/unlockable.

Guy is awesome :-)..Cody...on his SFA3 incarnation is just meh... much better if they would put the original Cody there.. or better, replace him with Hagar...
Seriously, Final Fight is SF2's predecessor.. why Hagar never get a chance???

Awsome, love the new characters outside of those now I wish Hagger would be added so we have the original 3 Final fight guys, and add Alex from Street Fighter III. and the roster would be perfect... well ok "maybe" add the twins, or least one of them and the alt. outfit can be the other one.
Posted: Nov 26th 2009 1:28AM (Unverified) said
the twins would be sweet. Yen was top tier in 3rd Strike.
and it's glad to see someone else wanting Alex back. the only thing is, Abel is pretty similar to Alex (would be damn near just like him if they'd give Abel an attack like Alex's D(charge)U+K); so they'll likely skip out.
but there is yet any other character like Urien. so that leaves me some hope.
