    ...Did you watch the end of the most recent trailer? It is a blatant teaser for Hakan, the last new character. Capcom PR just enjoys milking the game for all it's worth. Expect a new trailer in like a month or so where they officially reveal him.

    We have 9 new characters now, it's exactly as they said. They will unveil the last character (who the trailer hints at 2:40, grappler who loves oil) at a later date.

    you grease yourself up from the naval down and win by gaining an effective hold of your opponents pants.
    This is why he says "Time to get Oiled Up" 
     
    the guy will prolly be from Turkey, have a shaved head, a handlebar mustache and wear dark colored capris

    Guess you know all about Hakan then, right? Caus' we've totally seen him. Sounds like he loves oil to me, how else could you perform covered in oil? You couldn't perhaps think that the reports indicating that he's an Arabic fighter who loves oil, lead us to believe he loves oil? EDUCATE YOURSELF.

    Well, maybe it doesn't mean that he necessarily loves oil.  I mean, Sub Zero doesn't love ice, it's just a part of his being.

    And how do you know he doesn't love ice? I love ice already and I don't shoot it out of my hands. I'd probably love it more if I did. Don't tell me scorpion doesn't love breathing fire now. 
     
    @Luke: Yeah that is the supposed Hakan. Definitely looks like he has slicked back white hair, not a turban or anything.

    Hm, good point.  Hakan must be one messed up dude if he enjoys being covered in oil, though.

    My guess is Hakan not only loves oil, but also loves terrible jokes. 
    At least, that's what it sounded like to me when I heard his voice.

    ...and cause unnecessary controversy that leads to a ban of Street Fighter in the Middle East and such.

    Oh cool, I hadn't thought of that. I thought he was like a rich arabian oil barran. This makes way more sense.

    What if they made Hakan immune to throws, because he's too slippery... hmmm?

    Yeah, if they did do anything like this it would totally have to be balanced.  It probably wouldn't work with command throws, because than some characters would have a super tough time against Hakan.  Capcom may have even tried it during development, and then decided against it... I mean, I would at least try it if I was working on the game :p

    @lordofultima: Merely speculation on my part. Just like you were speculating about his love of oil. I was simply pointing out that everyone saying hes arabic and loves oil, everyone is picturing an incredibly offensive character w/ a turban and full beard, wearing a brown robe and curled up toes on his shoes.   
    Saying he loves oil is like saying Balrog loves boxing gloves. Its regulation in the sport, whether you think its weird or not. If you notice the oil at the end of the trailer is not black and shooting out of the ground, its clear and goldish, more of an oil used for lubrication. Being a Turkish Oil Wrestler makes a little more sense, as its a fighting style that could actually be incorporated into his fighting style.

    Why does he have to have a turban - why not give him the same hair cut Chris Tucker had in the Fifth Element ( http://www.movieactors.com/freeseframes-1026/FifthElement187.jpeg
     
    And while we are at why don't we not give him the ability to cover himself in oil by doing the SRK motion + K because you know - that would be fun yea? 
     
    Even more fun would be to make his QCF + P a dive in which his oiled body slides across the ground and knocks people down - and can finish off with a butt slam - YEA FUN! 
     
    Speaking of butt slam he should be friends with E Honda, and by friends I mean rivals. 
     
    Finally he should have his second ultra be where he douses himself in even more oil and lays on his back because you know...it's fun...
