[quote:post_uid0="SSJKarma"]as for SAKURA being like that !
well for all i remember, MvsC2 doesn'T even have any story !
tho i never played the arcades, the DC counterpart is exacly the same as the arcade so i'm sure there is no stories if there are no stories then there are no reality in these moves these characters does ![/quote]
Of course MvC2 has no storyline. NONE of the vs. games have any real storylines. Rather, they really have implications made in there. For example, why a Dark Sakura instead of Evil Ken, or something? Why? Because Sakura is willing to take the fighting to the upper levels, while Ken just wants to be rich, drive in his car, and have children. So, basically, there are reasons behind the moves, as they are really just.. well, implications of what the character would do.

so basically, her evil self doesn't even exists !
if anything to use the dark hado you must have evil in you, thus ryu has cause he keeps that grudge over akuma, that's also why ken doesn't go evil, cause he live his life without keeping any grudge against anyone !

Boy, do you have it wrong. You do not need to have evil in you, you need to have the will to fight and the desire to become the strongest fighter ever. That's why there is no evil Ken, and why there is a Dark Sakura: Because Ken has other things in life to worry about, canon-wise of course, while Sakura can do as she pleases with her life. When you think about Sakura so far, you have to admit that she will more than likely become Dark Sakura later on, even if they don't show it yet. If they produce an SF4, and if it includes Sakura in it, I'm absolutely sure that Sakura will have the Dark Hadou, whether she's a secret character, or just transformable, or she changes in an ending, etc.

for sakura, its only a matter of kicking butt and having fun, nothing can go against that and she surely won't go evil on anybody, thus she cannot master the dark hadou ! and since she doesn't even learn the moves from the real sensei (which is dead) and since ryu or ken never told her what it is, she cannot even know what it is !

For Sakura in SFA2/SFA (they're the same story, but with more people in #2), it is only a matter of having fun and kicking butt. If you really played SFA3, you should be able to tell that it's not about that anymore. Plus, Ryu does not really understand or know what the Dark Hadou is, and Sakura DOES learn (vaguely) about it, as seen by her ending in SFA3. That does happen, btw. That's how she found out about it. And who gives a damn whether she learned everything from a master or not; fact is, she still uses the same martial arts, even if it is so raw that she made her own versions of the special attacks. You don't need to be in contact with some old guy to be able to use some form of martial arts.

but let's forget that... i mean its not even going to be the same in here !

You started it. *raspberries*

why would you want RYU's hadouken to be like SAKURA ? i mean they are big yes but they don't even go all the way, they like do as much as DAN HIBIKI in range, only they are a little stronger !

Actually, if you had played with Sakura once, and if you had only pushed the stonger punch buttons, maybe you'd have noticed that her hadouken does go across the screen, and it goes way farther than Dan's Gadouken, even when you use the jab version. Of course, I doubt you've played as her in the vs. games, or else you wouldn't have said that.
Of course, even if it did go only as far as Dan's Gadouken, a little more damage can mean the difference between you being a winner, or you losing to someone who had less than a millimeter of Vitality left.

Just wanted to clear that up. Also, I'll be happy with whoever we get, but I just really think Sakura would be a good addition. I mean, we have Ken, Ryu, and Chun-li, so why not complete the circle of friends?
