Uh oh... This is just ammo for shippers.
 
Okay I really want to pre-order the game on PSN now.

That Chun-Li costume is great! Even better than it was in SFIV, going from adding more details to putting her hair down.

Me wants that cover. Makes me dread when Japan generally gets the good packages.

Would hope someone makes that printable, at least.

They said the outfits are $4, you'll save $9 with GCU and get a different outfit for free. Do the math.

The pre-order outfits probably won't be available for sale separately for like 30 days or something though, and bae demands your attention now

hopefully the whole cast will have some high quality costumes available early on; I don't plan on playing any of these 4 much.

Do you have a link where they said that?

It's in the F.A.N.G announcement:
http://www.capcom-unity.com/haunts/blog/2015/12/05/fang-finally-emerges-in-sfv-and-psx-announcements

It's actually 400 Zenny which in the lowest purchase amount is about $4, if you buy in larger amounts it can be less. Characters are 600 BTW.

I'm not a fan of it tbh. If you need it right away and it's indeed not purchasable for a time period it might be worth it to give up the discount though.

Not really. But it would be cool to have a Chinese actress play her.

I have mixed opinions on that idea...

On one hand the thing is we have already heard Chun li for a long long while, so suddenly changing up how she sounds is a bad idea. Last time I saw that happen to a really established character the fan outrage was real... (Chie in persona 4 to P4Golden) it's best not to mess with something that's already established...

On the other hand if it was like a brand new character it could be cool but I would prefer someone who is a really good voice actor/actress over someone who doesn't sound good and doesn't do that great of a portrayal. Regardless of race.

I don't want to make this thread about this but I feel like it would be fine, unless the actress was bad no one would notice. I just think it would be neat.

No it'd only be racist if Chun-Li were black, according to GAF.
Sigh.

I can't think of a genre where it matters less who is voicing the characters. None of the reasons for having the actor match the character demographically apply when the character is basically a collection of sound barks. A Chinese actress wouldn't sound any different or better doing Chun's weak ass English VO. I mean, I guess she could have a Chinese accent when speaking English. That wouldn't be cool for a white actress to do. Does Chun-Li canonically have a Chinese accent when she speaks English?

More on topic:

They need to fix this dumb open eye/closed eye thing. The closed eye would obviously be on the side of the impact. Fix this shit Guerilla.

It may not matter much to some of us but for the industry it would be cool. Diversifying the voice acting pool in video games isn't bad, is it?

I know at least you saw that Nadine reveal thread and posted in it Scientist Supreme!
Yeah, I did. I don't really get what your trying to say in that comment besides being upset that we talked about that.
