    How about another American, period.
    Out of the 18 fighters only 2 are American.
    *in angry and proud redneck voice* "I wanna see more fucking Americans."

    But seriously, it would be really interesting to see what AM2 would do with an all Boxing character.
    I've always wondered how a character like Dudley from SFIII would play out in VF.

    Maybe a thread like this is not totally useless: a while ago a couple of threads were created to talk about what style people wanted to see in the next installment.
    Somebody said Judo in one thread and that happened and in another thread somebody wrote monkey-style Kung-Fu and that one happened too.
    One time I wished for Goh to have a light-down foot stomp instead of his down-punch and they say VF5R has that now.
    (and it's all because of me, MEEEEEEEEEEE)

    ...I don't really know if Sega or AM2 actually reads these forums... or if they even care what style we want to see... are you out there Sega... AM2... show me a sign.
    ...
    ...
    ...
    ... why won't you write back?
    Why won't you return my phone calls??
    Why won't you love me???
    WHYYYYYY?! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cry.gif

    If Sega is to add a boxer, they will be the second or third to add one. Nationality does not matter, but I hope this boxer will be a woman since the only female boxer fighting game fans know is Vanessa of the King of Fighters series.[/size]

    As far as I'm concerned, all the English-speaking characters are American.
    I think the only one with an accent would be El Blaze? The rest are just plain American. Why couldn't Sega hire some native voice talents for every character? Those stupid taunts would be A LOT less cheesy in other languages and accents.

    agreed,

    LOL at Brad the Italian sounding like an American. what a stronzo

    LOL at Lion from France sounding like an American eunuch. what a stooge

    and give Jeff an aussie accent in the next game, Sega.. you stooges /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

    Lol at Brad and Lion speaking English at all...

    What's with an Italian kickboxer in the first place? That country has no proper fighter's tradition. Brad should've been German, Dutch, Swiss or Swedish or something. France has a very large traditional fighting sports community so Lion isn't that strange, but them now getting a second fighter while ignoring the rest of Europe? Calling him Jean is laying it on rather thick as well, from now on I'm referring to him as 'the Belgian'.

    Ah well, this ignore Europe thing is pretty much universal in fighting games. Apart from freakin' World Heroes... Jeanne d'Arc is coming for your Viking arse Erik!

    Cadorna:
    hmmm, let's have a go at that then,

    Original: I'm twice the man I used to be
    My trans: Je suis double d'homme hier*

    Nope, still sounds gay.
    Brad would sound even more metrosexual in Italian.

    *(approximate translation, my French is not that good)

    What are you talking about dude? Italians have no fighting traditions?
    We certainly do! LOL

    Poppa Well-Known Member

    Bitch Slapping is not a fighting tradition...

    Lol, I kid. (I'm half Italian BTW)

    What we need is an angry Greek guy. I already know what his intro quote should be: "Ela re malaka!!!"

    Too bad Jeffry already has Pankration. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif

    (and yes, I'm half Greek as well...awesomeness)

    Brad would be:
    - Che posso fare? Sono al top!

    The fact that he's Italian and a kickboxer is nothing. What kind of name is "Brad", that's what I'd ask Sega!! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif
    And last name "Burns", ay ay ay ay ayyyy.....

    They need to outsource their character creation ASAP, hahaha...

    Well, a name itself does not define nationality, right? He could be of Italian origins.
    Cadorna are you Italian?

    I think that AM2 is very watchful in terms of creating new characters & the characters up until now are carefully selected. You can see how many characters (with Tekken 6) the Tekken series has presented over the past years, and how many characters (with VF5R) the VF series has presented...
     
  20. cadorna

    cadorna Well-Known Member

    Yes I am.
    It's true that a name itself does not define nationality but it does define your origins. In real life a Brad Burns can be born in Italy and have the nationality but not the origins. In creating a character for a game I don't think it is a good idea to have this kind of confusion.
