Wow.

Yeah, good luck with that. The last time I saw a huge naked guy laughing, I called the cops before kicking him in the balls and screaming, but I don't think that will quite work with Street Fighter IV's Seth. This new video shows off the world's most violent naturist and it doesn't skimp on the "scary bald bastard" stuff.

Of course, as I type this, some mentalist in Japan will have already beaten him within three seconds ten million times over. Such is the nature of fighting game fans.

Is it me, or does he have at least one move from all the other characters?

Why is it that super powerful characters in games end up looking so generic and boring like this?

Meh, I've seen better fighting game bosses. He seems to borrow a couple moves from Urien.

Wow, talk about an ill-fitting name. Seth? That'd be like Dr. Manhattan going by the name "Dave", or the Silver Surfer going by "Mike". It's just... Weird.

He should be like... "The Black Hole", or "The Onlooker" or something pretentious like that. But Seth? That sounds like a college stoner.

I like aggregate movelist bosses. Less character, more "everything to kick yo' ass" ability.
@ Mxyzptlk, that's fantastic.

Im so glad I got high before i watched that link.
This character is pretty boring to look at... I still hold out hope that he'll have a decent backstory and good dialogue to justify his weirdness.

I hate teleporting bosses! they're just too cheap sometimes (DOA4 I'm looking at you)

And I wonder what's with the people at capcom that insists on having some men in speedos (Seth is wearing a speedo.right?) in SF games

I'm detecting hints of Shang Tsung's ability design here.

I noticed him perform one of Abel's combos, a Shoryuken, and Zangief's Spinning Pile Driver. However, interestingly enough, he seems to be able to add his own twist to them. Like with the SPD, instead of simply picking his opponent up and performing it, he launcher-uppercuts the fucker, TELEPORTS UP TO MEET HIM, then SPD's on the way down.

Visual design and name aside, I like Seth.

*sigh*

More unoriginality from the SF team.

Seriously, how can you go from SF3:3S (the greatest 2-D fighter ever made) to what looks to be one of the most generic and boring 2-D fighters ever.

They even took out the best gameplay mechanics from SF3 in order to put in older, more trite SF mechanics.

DinnertimeNinja: Because SF3 sold less than the other generic SF games, even if it has more interesting characters.

Amp: He also seems to have moves from Urien, Vega (Bison) and the deformable limbs of Twelve.

Funny enough, it seems like this boss should of been in King of Fighters or something from SNK... not Capcom.

Also, now I got that damn party in my tummy song in my head. Thanks.

@ Acefowl:

Yeah, I saw Urien primarily. Dhalsim, Ryu, and Zangief are all in there as well. Looks pretty boring to be honest.

That video I posted is from an completely insane kid's show on Nick Jr. called Yo Gabba Gabba. The basic premise as best I can figure out has a Steve Urkel look-alike cosplaying as a Devo band member who keeps random tiny monsters as pets. I'm pretty sure the people behind it do a lot of acid.

@Mxyzptik: The show was created by a member of the superhero ska band The Aquabats. That's why it's demented. Plus I've heard they're Mormon. That would explain a lot.

I like his variations on other fighters moves, but that laugh makes me want to stab my ears.

The video work this time!

I'm confused as to why they gave all the clothed characters bulging packages but then when they finally have a naked one there are no signs of penis.

WHY NOT PENIS WHY NOT?!

Lmao. Guile smashes against the screen. Doesn't make sense that he'd be borrowing some of Urien's moveset. Maybe they're related? Like the Solidus to Solid and Liquid.

have to agree with him looking like the generic "beyond the need for blank" boss. blank in this case being clothes. not too impressed, but still looking forward to this game!

What the fuck did Mxyzptlk link to? I feel like I should've taken a hit of LSD to understand that. In regards to Seth: My god I thought Bison was cheap as hell. I'll never beat that thing. And of course to further the humiliation he has to be bald and naked as he kicks my ass.

This is what Twelve should have been. I dig the "i have all of your moves" characters, like Eugene, but less retarded.

Because it wouldn't be a fighting game without a cheap as fuck final boss.

This is one aspect that I HATE about fighting games.

Didn't they just do the "God-like" character in Street Fighter 3? And didn't he possess fire and ice or something?

Someone needs new ideas...for some reason this Seth character's design bothers me greatly.
