DoA is the first thing I thought about when seeing this.
Love DoA but it's not because of stuff like this.
man why they got rose so far in the background...:(
Rather have clean copies, but I wouldn't make it an XB background. Any clues on the artist or site hosting clean copies?
@Amar Yeah, I never thought he would do stuff like this... Poor guy.
I don't even have the words to describe how pathetic this is. Here's a tip for anyone actually considering buying this: when you're willing to pay *real money* for pictures of fighting game characters in swimsuits and porno mag poses, you need to seriously reexamine the direction your life has taken, and also the many reasons you'll never, ever get a girlfriend.
Although I do find it mildly amusing that Cammy, who practically has a one-piece swimsuit as her uniform (technically it's a leotard, but that's not what it looks like), apparently wears a bikini to the beach.
This both sexist and offensive in my opinion but i know most will disagree with me anyways. This is SF not DOA. Besides the game doesn't only have female characters but no, they feel only straight males play it and can "appreciate" females in their swim suits
@ #22:
I find it odd that paying real money for any other sexual product (be it Playboy, a porn dvd, stripclub visit, whatever) it's entrenched in popular culture. But getting Street Fighter chick calender or something like that it's something worth reexamining life over.
We can't aim for interactive entertainment to be accepted in mainstream culture while we gamers ourselves belittle it whenever it does something relatively mainstream.
In fact, a buddy of mine put it better in another forum:
"Humans have been drawing sexy and erotic art since we figured out how to make markings on cave walls. Finding videogame characters hot is just the modern equivilent.
I think it's the videogame aspect that makes people say "Lol, seriously!?". Someone can say they would have sex with Jessica Rabbit if she was real and everyones cool with it because it's Jessica Rabbit but if someone else then said they'd have sex with Mai from King of Fighters, it's suddenly "pretty sad"."
I definitely won't buy this.What's with all those haters I bet they are the ones that don't have girlfriend, why don't you stop playing fighting games and get a girlfriend instead?
lol People can have a girlfriend 'and' be a gamer. It's not even some noteworthy effort. I'd go as far as saying people who try to make the false choice are the ones who find it such an alien concept.
I have to admit that I won't be buying this, simply because I don't want all my friends to think I'm a pervert whenever they play my xbox. xD
I love Juri's look though, ever since her inception she's been my favorite lady of SF. (Just barely edging out Makoto ;)
Lot of ignorance in this of all places. This is a Street Fighter community site. The world would propose we all need to get laid.
@#24/halo: Yeah, that too. But I wasn't going to go there, crying sexism in even the most obvious cases usually leads to being lumped in with the crazy feminists who think women should hide every inch of skin just to spite men.
@Kalyx_triaD: Hah, it's pretty obvious I hit a nerve. Maybe you should work on that insecurity a bit? But don't try to read my mind, it won't work. This isn't pathetic because it presents video game characters as hot, it's pathetic because... you know what, I'm not going to bother explaining why. You *should* know just by looking at it.
I'm offended. There is no way Juri would be hanging out at the beach with those girls.
Dang you guys at xbox hafta pay???? I've been having a sexy street fighter theme similar on ps3 and it was free...,ot cool for them to charge you guys.
I don't think there's anything sexist, or even purely sexual, about bathing suits. Zangief wears less than this when he is fighting.
My only regret about this: I can't go in the water. (Do you know how long it takes me to get my hair this way?)
#43 said "I'm offended. There is no way Juri would be hanging out at the beach with those girls."
Well, we noticed she really needed a tan :)

I'm not buying this even if it makes it's way to america mainly cause I'd be supporting Microsoft's efforts to make everything pay2play
I'll wait for it to become free on PSN before I even consider it or at least a wallpaper, who needs a girlfriend when you got female f*** buddies!
For all of those saying it's sad/insulting what if a woman who was straight and had no sexual confusion at all was the artist who drew this of her own free will? not so sexist now huh? then there's the fact of that beside Juri, Chun and Rose's poses they all look like they're normally just sitting down or laying around.
Anyway if they did a male version of this would even straight female gamers like Choco ever buy it?
If i wanna see tits and ass ill just make a custom character in soulcalibur4
@ricefarmer
Don't push him on us(America), and we have some good chick designs it's really just a matter of preference, a 'few' of the good female designs come from
Bioware located in North America remember but if you want UNITED STATES:
Bungie (Miranda Keys, Oni), EA games,2K games, Blizzard(Kerrigan can infest me any time),DOUBLE FINE!,High moon Studios, Harmonix Music Systems, LUCAS ARTS, Majesco(BloodRayne),MISTWALKER(Hawaii Based studio AKA AMERICAN), Rockstar,Retro Studios,Running with Scissors, SCE Santa Monica Studios(GOD OF WAR),Sony Online Entertaiment(Everquest),THQ, Troika(the girls of Vampires the masquerade: Bloodlines), Monolith.
I'm sorry but if you can't see a single studio in there with good female design in that bunch, you have have have very picky taste in women
@Steadiest shark
lol that works on too many levels
Makoto is actually a guy's name....so that ontop of her body type and rough voice don't help she'll probably end up like the chick in the middle of this picture, http://media.animevice.com/uploads/0/...
and just to give you an idea of how big of a woman that is the guy to her left is about 6 feet tall
#60 is right,
and #48 lost my respect =P really, devon? hahahaha
I wish all of you idiots saying "If you buy this, you have no life." would shut the F*** up because its a free country we could do what we want and buy what we want and plus the whole "You need to get a gf if you buy this", is pathetic. Alot of guys with GF's are gonna buy this still. So please, GET A F***** LIFE!!!
first comment sums it all up!!!
WHAT THE F*CK????
I always find these "discussions" so intriguing. How can you in your right mind complain about this, but not about all the countless killing you do in other games? I can't for my life understand why violence is more accepted than sex-related thoughts.
Don't get me wrong, I see nothing wrong with violence in games (as long as it stays in-game), but I find it sickening that people can rage so hard as such a thing as a drawing of a lightly-clad girl (simply because it is not "real"), and still find it okay to kill masses of people in games.
And even worse, most people thinking "2d is sick!!!1" probably have no qualms about having a brother joining the army, or having a president killing thousands of people.
Logic of eventhub community:
Totally okay with getting raging boners hot in-game character models and alt costumes, but as soon as 2D pictures come out on the Xbox 360(most here are salty PS3 users), everyone is suddeny a fag or a loser for liking the background.
mind = blown.
THESE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE ALTERNATE COSTUMES INSTEAD OF THE CRAPPY ONES WE GOT.
@ everyone taking this seriously and typing book reports or even novels
1. Its not that serious
2. The picks look good
3. If it was all the dudes shirtless in fighting stances nothing will be said
4. Im not buying it, Capcom needs to give some free ish
I would like to see more Chun Li and C. Viper, lol at makoto. Capcom knows what they are doing to the character Makoto, I got she is a tought Tom Boyish lesbian.
@ CMAyhem #84: That has nothing to do with the complaints. I'm as puritanical as they get, and I'm not offended by these pictures.
Though I wouldn't buy it myself, I don't see why people are judging potential buyers so harshly. If someone purchases this stuff, it doesn't mean they're losers with no girlfriends; to even say that makes you an ignorant prick. It just means they just have money to burn, nothing more.
Personally, I'm not buying it because it's overpriced fan art. (And I'll be able to Google it for free in a few months)
@83
I'm pretty sure the people who call people fags for liking this are the same people who didn't get boners for in game chars, likewise the people who got boners from in game chars are the fags who want to buy this
@91
I'm jacking off to your comment because its so awesome.
Anything with Chun li in it i'll get her legs r just toooo hot (this is why,this is why,this why am HOT!)nuff said.
