Yoshimitsu is my dawg yo. The lack of him actually being in this video is saddening.

They really need to change the official gender of Poison. It's just dumb and creepy at this point.

Well, that's kinda biggoted, isn't it?

I guess?  She's supposedly a male cross-dressing.  I wouldn't mind a tranny in this game if they didn't very obviously make her a female and just call her a male.  There is literally no way there is a penis there.
 
 
Ok, just read the Wiki again... missed the part where she is supposed to be a post-op tranny in North America.  Ok, well, I am fine with that.  My bad.

Wow, you're an incredibly sensitive and comprehending person, aren't you? Google "tucking".

That music was catchy. B-roll footage is usually monotonous but I found this entertaining.

Poison was originally all female but there was some anxiety about Western reception to images of a woman being beaten up by big burly men so she was characterized as being a hermaphrodite and later a transsexual.  All these concerns seem rather silly by today's standards where you can have sex with a hooker then killer in a game.

Many of you are trying so hard to be politically correct. It's almost cute in a neo-liberal, I-don't-know-what-is-ok-to-say sort of way.

Oooooh yeah, because my Black Ops avatar automatically makes me a fan of the game right? FLAWLESS LOGIC.

You know, looking at the string of replies, I have to also add another defense for you - why the fuck does being a Call of Duty fan invalidate one's opinions on other games?  I'm a huge fan of the series (granted, I'm one of the 30% who doesn't go online), but I love lots of other games too. 
 
Oh, and this is going to be a super-sweet game by the looks of it, though I'll likely wait for the inevitable revamped version.  Learned that lesson after SFIV.

They must have gotten over it quick as fuck, however, since Final Fight 2 and 3 have both female enemies and player characters.

That makes sense, because I totally just called you a fan of the game, and referenced the fact that you had a Black Ops icon :) 
 
That's some beautiful logic, sir.

I'm pretty sure Poison is officially a girl now. I realize that back in the Final Fight days, that character was an effeminate dude (to say the least). But since then, Poison's officially just been made a girl because the world doesn't want no tranny game characters:) And Capcom didn't want to bother with any controversy.
 
Although it doesn't help that, apparently (judging by the english comic-con trailer), they got  Mona Marshall to do the voice. A voice actress who's done both female (Ryoko from Tenchi Muyo ) and male (Beat from Eternal Sonata) characters in tons of video games, cartoons and anime. 
 
Still, I'll say it. That model's hot:) Capcom's got some damn talented 3D artists on their Street Fighter team. WISH THEY'D MAKE SOME MEGA MAN STUFF!!!

It seems though that she is officially a tranny now, from what I gather from Ono press conference..
Like it's official now. 
(kinda how when Sega brought Sonic back in modern games with Sonic Adventure they officialize Robotnik as "Eggman")
