Street Fighter fans

I guess this message is directed at robdigi and potter. I dunno if anyone else cares.

As of yesterday, a new character has been unlocked in Street Fighter IV. And that new character is...

Gouken. Ken and Ryu's master, Akuma's brother.
I have turned into the biggest geek ever from this.

That's him in action. Some things I'd like to point out:
*One armed hadoukens.
*ANTI-AERIAL HADOUKENS.
*ANTI-AERIAL TATSUMAKI SENPUUS.
It seems he's kinda got the same Tatsumaki Senpuu that Akuma has in Alpha, where it hits vertical instead of horizontal... except it goes up. More anti-aerial is sweet.
*His focus attack is Ryu's kick from 3 that was strangely left out of 4... which means he learns it from Gouken and not Oro or anyone else.
*He doesn't seem to have a normal shoryuken that every other shoto character has, but watch in that video at 2:04... HOLY SHIT.


Uhm... so pumped up. Akuma is a bitch.

-Joe.
