I don't see the big deal about the Bombcast; I'm not sure why they'd even do this, because they've been terribly vague, but I imagine it'll work out. Besides which, we've still got some hours left to get that last 1,000 subscribers, perhaps a little less than that. Seems plausible.

It isn't TNT until the banner goes up. I hope for Jeff uppercutting Brad's head off.

It's really embarrassing to read through some of the bigotry in this thread directed at Christians, as it is totally unwarranted. All the OP wanted was to find other Christian gamers - yet, he gets a torrent of abuse from members of the community spitting all kinds of insults at him about his religion. I haven't posted that much on these forums, but this thread makes me somewhat glad, if this is the kind of attitude certain people have toward a religious [or other kind of] group. 
 
I'm not a Christian, by the by. As if it mattered.

Excellent news.

I have an exam in two hours and have studied for barely half of that. Funnily enough, have failed it three times before. 

DO IT.

The bleeding heart brigade will disobey the law and redistribute middle class wealth to support millions of criminals living in America, I see. 

I have read a bunch of discussions on this matter over whether SSFIV will have downloadable characters; personally, I doubt it. There have been the odd mentions of Yoshinori Ono talking about such an event, but this set-up makes little sense - at best Capcom would have to compete with their own branded DLC, like costumes, at worst they're splitting up the Street Fighter [IV] community in providing another alteration in which the game can be sliced up, as I'm sure at least one-million players from the original won't be coming over to Super.  
 
Tournament play out of the question, it would still require a hell of a lot of data to store these characters as downloadable objects - Ono has rather much confirmed there are no other characters on the disc to unlock, unlike the costumes, so it would need to be all new data. Street Fighter IV models are extremely high-fidelity and to match the rest of the cast would take some extreme storage space, in comparison to things like costumes. At which point, Capcom can of course not bundle characters - it wouldn't be worth the time or effort if they did. Then again, if they were to offer one character in a pack, who would that be? I can't imagine who would be popular enough to put out there as a standalone character, Ono has been talking about obscurities like Hugo and as much as I love that character, I doubt that Capcom would be prepared to put money behind that as the development team's current project. Soulcalibur IV did this with Yoda and Darth Vader, but these characters are extremely well-known in popular culture terms and it is quite a bizarre comparison to any prospect of Capcom releasing constant one-ups to the SSFIV cast. 
 
So I suppose the likelihood of it comes down to the possible conundrums one would face in handling this kind of project - how could Capcom possibly profit from it, who would actually pay for it and who would have the space or patience along with all the other downloadable content? It makes far more sense to package it all into an 'Ultra,' 'Turbo' or 'Bunghole' edition in 2011, where they can again charge around half-price and make money back on costumes or that ilk. RANT GET. 

Ryu and Sagat were my mains in SFIV, I'd want to drop both of those and adopt at least one of the new characters. Hakan is apparently terrible, Juri doesn't do it for me - if Adon, Guy, Dudley or Cody are to my style, I'll try to pick those up.  
  
Stupid UK release date.
