# im not buyin this cause — Spawnx777x 2008-09-23 07:12

the ps3 box looks gay

# I am buying this because it will rock — Commentor 2008-09-23 07:46

Sorry, but There is NOTHING gay about Chun-Li. The American PS3 box art wins by far.

# Read the article — TheMallrat 2008-09-23 07:47

Dude, read the article. Both the PS3 and 360 get the same character on the front. It's the different regions that get different characters.

So if you're in the US you'll get Chun Li on the cover no matter if you buy the PS3 or 360 version, whereas here in Europe we get Ryu.

# I like the — Nevers 2008-09-23 08:00

US version too... she's actually less manly-looking than I've ever seen her before and Ryu just looks like he's trying exceptionally hard to drop the Cosbie kids off at the pool.

# Whats up with SFIV Ryu? — kitenai 2008-09-23 10:47

is it just me but he doesnt look very japanese in all the art for this game? he almost looks like half black/half white or greek or something.

# WIN — HIDEO KOJIMA 2008-09-23 13:35

This is Win Win for me, I would prefer having a girl on the cover anyways, like with the GTA4 LE. So even if I did get the 360 of GTA 4, I would've preferred the PS3 cover. Anyways, even if it was a console specific box art (which it isn't), I would still be getting the PS3 version, not saying the PS3 is better in any way, but its the controller that plays a factor for this type of genre.

I don't see why Europe would get Ryu though. What about Japan? Who are they getting on their cover? I kind of think they should have the character on the cover mirror that of where they come from in the game. Like Ryu should be on the Japan cover, Ken should be on the US cover, and I guess Vega or whoever from Europe should be on the EU cover

# YAY — hush404 2008-09-23 14:43

I hearts Chun-Li

# you are right — dominicanito 2008-09-23 16:18

you are right every continent should have there character

# ~~ — ~~ 2008-09-23 22:06

This is bull*****.. I want the Chun-Li box...

# Another Thing — HIDEO KOJIMA 2008-09-24 00:37

The US cover seems more accurate than the EU cover. At the bottom of the US cover, it has Ryu vs Ken. That seems more accurate than EU's Chun Li vs Ken.

# People amazes me how stupid they cana be.. — RyutsukeMurakami 2008-09-24 06:25

Did you just graduate from middle school or something? Eating your candy even before paying for it. Use that little brain of yours and read the entire article...

# Chun Li — RyutsukeMurakami 2008-09-24 06:29

I think Chun Li looks great! I prefer a girl over my cover then some black dude anyday. Not being raciest but compare Chun Li over Ryu... I mean obviously! The GIRL!!

# but seRYUosly — xche78x 2008-09-25 05:25

why use Chun-li?

Ryu and Ken should be the biggies on the box....

In ALL Territories!

or is Capcom just teasing gamers lol. not funny
