[Marvel vs. Capcom 3 wish list] J’s Capcom character pick: Linn Kurosawa

11 Comments

Linn Kurosawa (drawn by SamuraiBlack @ Deviant art) I was a big ol’ Alien vs. Predator fan back in the day. I’d gladly give the cabinets all my money to slay Alien scum with my favourite cyborg bad ass: Lieutenant Linn Kurosawa. I have soft spot for any woman who chooses to fight an Alien horde with nothing but a pistol, a Katana and a multipack of whoop ass.

At a time when female characters in beat ‘em ups were nothing but stereotypes in the skimpiest outfits ever (I’m not complaining), Kurosawa was a breath of fresh air. A breath of fresh air who could slice you in 2, pop a cap in your ass and had the strength to throw giant Alien species three times her size with one hand.

Ever since Capcom began their vs. series, I’ve always hoped, wished and ceremonially cast on voodoo dolls that Kurosawa would make the cut for one the cross over scraps, but she never did. Instead she was relegated to appearing in the swimming pool of Ken’s cruise liner in Street Fighter Alpha 2 and nothing more. So I’m hoping that Capcom either come across my plea and think “Actually…she would make a GREAT inclusion for Marvel vs. Capcom 3!” or that a member of the development team harbors the same love for Linn Kurosawa as I do, and that she’s on track to making her vs. debut.

I’ve named by #1 Capcom pick for Marvel vs. Capcom 3. So what’s yours?

    AWESOME PICK!!!! I used to love that game!

  2. Khaim says:

    I would ask for a Predator but that’s some barging from another series…

    Nope, got no more sugestions from Capcom’s side. I do, HOWEVER, like to see a bit of Fantomex

    He came before some Cobra-ninja’s movie design.

  3. Ximum says:

    I would really like to see Edward Falcon from Power Stone, or Skullomania from SFEX.

    They both have pretty much zero chance of happening, though.

    i think ROLL totally rocks i vote roll back on this game if anything. i loved her double jump and her height is a plus and a negative. when you jump with her you have the advantage of most of her lenghty jump to be at 3 main attacking points which she’s already at the knee and feet as is she maintains in between midsection (stomach) and head (upper section). then a second jump to achieve any extra or unachieved damage in the first jump. plus a dodging attack.

  5. Jarvis says:

    ROLL. i loved ROLL. i think that Roll. is an god given character her ability to beatplane is a + i score on some of attacks with her the ability to take off damage and deal more with fighting ape girl if timed correctly when she tries to become her ape form. use beatplane to shoot her to stall her firing mechanism and fly behind her to if full enough gauge deal the three person attack. should do good damage on the health gauge done correctly.

  6. Jarvis says:

    (ROLL)I thin it would be cool if we could some of her new abilities thought if you have ever played mugen you know what kind of roll i’m talkin about. that mugen roll rocks. her ability to stop time rocks and think for a good keen idea her bird could form a spacecraft to deal damage according to hit combo that would be great EX.7 hit combo+14 or 15 damage on health gauge. just somethink to give her combos better ability. hyper roll did sucky damage and it was hard to capture enemies in air with they usaually block before being bumped in the air to be shot with.

  7. Jarvis says:

    ROLL would be acceptional with her strenght.she isn’t that bad i think she needs the ability to endure. needs to take a hit as much as dished out. if maybe she could get the ability to endure up she would rock out. that way when you hit her your attacks are only doing half as much damage as would in her primal form.

  8. I think Jarvis likes Roll. I’m not sure though…
