Not like you're going to need that interview, cause you'll be too busy playing Skullgirls when it comes out on March 17.

They're going to release the day before the PC AE-2012 patch and own Capcom forever.

I'm actually going to school at the Mike Z School of Awesome Tech. It's a major in Skullgirls with a minor in Kicking rear end.

Got to offset the "Oh this is a generic sexy animu fightan girl game" reaction, perhaps? v :v:

v. But yeah. I was expecting someone else too.

Guys, I think I've got that episode of GTTV on right now. It's playing the Battlefield 3 and Leisure Suit Larry segments it mentioned in the promo. If you're a West Coaster, I suggest you flip on the idiot box.

Just because she appeared in a commercial doesn't mean she's the one
how would you even play as that anyway.

also gross characters own, especially when girls are allowed to be horrifying and gross for once.

Umbrella's sister alone fights with a handgun and an army of bodygaurds in addition to an umbrella thing.
Umbrella has to have some gimmick so far unheard of

Ideally, the art is being worked on now while the code guys are crushing bugs.

Her (likely joking) concept art implies she interacts with her umbrella in really weird and chaotic ways, like eating it to inflate (like if you opened an umbrella inside of a garbage bag) or wearing it on her arm like a claw-gauntlet thing. Either way Umbrella owns.

Holy poo poo! She's like Seth on crack. Including cut moves is just genius. And those creepy, blobby animations. Amazing!

# ? Feb 17, 2012 07:25

anime was right: Jun 27, 2008; death is certain
keep yr cool

To summarize for those who missed it: She's like a nun that turns into some weird shapeshifting thing. When she does attacks, it's just the animations of other characters (c.MK from Parasoul, airdash attack thing from Cerebella). So most of her attacks don't have animations unique to her. Her movement had unique animations at least.

Here's what I got about Double from the preview:

*Made up of a bunch of weird squishy body parts, turns into weird things for attacks, like for example, her grab turns her into a giant hand with teeth and she eats the opponent

*Her dash carries her in an arc like Venom's Venom Fang (but doesn't do damage, natch)

*Some kind of body slam that I think causes a wall bounce (edit: apparently this is her in Cerebella's body)

*Transforms into other characters (e:fb)

*The only ultra we saw turns her into a giant car and runs over the opponent

You forgot about her getting attacks other characters don't use. Like Cerebella's butt bomber and Parasoul popping shots with her pistol.
