F dat article. That's starting unnecessary controversy.

Like many other similar articles i've seen over the years about video game developers outlook on certain minorities.

Tired of those people who have have the will to express there unpleasant feelings through articles and make a big deal out of something that should\can be tolerated an left alone.

Using the words ( F**k, & Tit***s) in a article...  N**** please....

I agree with you on the fact that a lot of these articles are written out of bitterness (namely this one). but what do you mean with "make a big deal out of something that should\can be tolerated an left alone."?

 Kayo is more or less up to Pejic standards (though she's more moe moe). But, isn't that just catch 21? poison/kayo (and any female character/person born with a Y chromosome) isn't a Rule 63 of some male character and that's ppl don't get. It´s not a guy (anymore). Therefore, the only question that remains is: how much does it matter how this person used to be?

But outside of the gaming scene, Poison got some seriously polarised reactions. Kind of like Ash when people started wondering "what's with the voice? thought these anime things had really high pitched squeals." just before getting a Bridget dropped on them. In short? Most ppl really don't to be forced to think about it. Tons of ppl still think capcom's holding on to an age old troll with the poison thing . kind of cute, that type of fan-dumb :3

Has anybody read this yet
http://ratbagqueer.wordpress.com/2012/03/10/kof-xiii/

in the jungle stage those look like primates then "black" people, Marco don't look like any of them

THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT?!?!

uh, i actually read through the whole thing... it's really hard to comment on it because the game was made in japan and while the japanese poke fun at EVERYONE who brings the whole "the protruding nail gets hammered down" to mind (i.e.: everyone who doesn't act and look japanese enough), we in the west are much harsher when it comes to stuff like racism and homo/trans-phobia. I mean, look at the uproar Poison started in SFxT in the US.

Being part of one of those minorities, I still think it's healthier to see stereotypes being poked fun at than watching how every video game gets bleached of anything "unusual" or even slightly thought provoking. I think most here would agree with me. And come on, how many trans ppl look like Andrej Pejic?

Even the whole Amazon Stage thing, it's real. I was on a news site  the other day and there was an article on the "nodding sickness" which afflicts thousands of children in Uganda. The main photo was a teenage kid, obviously black, lying naked on the dirt. Whoever took and published the photo upheld  the status quo that because it's in Africa, the nudity´s less shocking than if it were anywhere else.

Sorry for the rant, tried to make it smaller :3

EDIT: FFS, how can you even object to a game that makes fun of EVERYONE!?!?

Professor refers to it as Kyo's "yaoi voice".

LMAO, dear god, i hope it's not one of the extras. i understand the need for a female fanbase but that's going WAY too far ahahahaha

soooooooooooooo...
if we had a zip-woosh moment where history is reshaped... why does Iori even have to choose whether or not to take the magatama? and if you ask me, a certain someone is hiding in the magatama as well.

well, they brought back flaming Iori, they could just as easy bring back Shingo.

the guy on the left could be Lin as well, as he always had a pose like that (back turned and arm out) but if they're listening in, it'll probably be yamazaki after all.

If i could have it my way, I'd rather have Adelheid and Mukai as extras. (bc it's not a dream match yet)

^while releasing the game in a decent time frame without worrying about long term longevity. this  is a successful model that's been used since guild wars started doing it.
