I must admit that I totally hoped that Alex would be the next grappler to be revealed for Street Fighter V and Zangief is a character I rarely played with in the last years. However, his movesets in SFV seems to be great and that stage is one of the coolest I have seen in fighting games in the recent time.





Just wonder why they changed only some of the returning character visually and not all.
Zangief looks just like he did in 1991. It would have been a good time for a design overhaul and change him to the "Red Cyclone" in a similar way how Namco changed Julia Chang to Jaycee in TTT2.





You can view and download the hi-res wallpapers of all the SFV characters aside from Zangief (will add that one later today I guess) on Game-Art-HQ here:

So can anyone explain how Zangief can spin like a cyclone while his head remains "perfectly still?" XD
We also have a new female character coming up: A Brazilian Capoeira female fighter in the spirit of Elena named Laura: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKy7-m…
The vid describes her as a Rule 63 Eddy Gordo.....that sounds about right.
