Capcom has been slowly releasing artwork of the new character designs for Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix (Hey, Capcom, can we get a longer name for this?). This week it was Guile's turn up at bat and according to 1Up, reactions were mixed at best. Comments on both 1ups coverage of the art and on Capcom's own blog were both negative and positive with an accent on the negative. Capcom is now saying that they will be redesigning the look of the character based on those comments and while they said not all suggestions were being considered, there were no real details on what would be changed.

I took a look at the comments on both sites and I have to say that the things people were complaining about were pretty damned nit-picky. Nit-picky to the point of ridiculousness in many cases. Frankly. I'm rather surprised that Capcom would cave to such rampant fanboy-ism. Personally, I think he looks pretty cool, but then Guile was never one of the characters I favored playing. I'm more of a Zangief or Chun-Li kind of guy. What can I say, I like hot Asian chicks and big hairy Russian dudes with mohawks. Wait, that just sounded all kinds of wrong... Flynn De Marco
