Chun-Li's giant man-hands

chautemoc | April 19, 2008 | News | PC Playstation 3 
Apparently Chun-Li has deceived us all these years hiding these gigantic man-hands of hers, because Capcom seems to have let the secret out on their website with the photo pictured here. Girls with a bit of meat on them are great, but yeesh, you could crush small children with those megaton fists.
Now, this in no way is meant to be taken as an indictment of the quality of Street Fighter IV as a whole -- the game could very well be great despite certain depictions of grotesque fiddler crab pincers. And sure, in the heat of battle, it's unlikely anyone will be focusing on what any character's thumbs look like. That said, I would offer this counterpoint: Look at that goddamn thumb. Seriously. It's as if an ichneumon wasp injected a large sack of eggs into her palm.

    I must admit that is kinda weird. Does anyone know for sure if they will look like that in the actual game?

      I need to copy and save my old comment on this...but now I can't find it, so I guess I'll answer this again:

      GameGrep is like a newspaper, there's your 'important news' section, 'advertisement' section, blah blah blah...this one pertains to 'light-hearted' news, the not-so-important yet somewhat interesting news...sure you yourself may not find this funny and such, but it's gotten a lot of attention.

      GameGrep's purpose is to inform us of what's going on in in the gaming world, whether it be progress updates, company announcements, previews, or light stuff such as this. Think of this sort of news like the comic section of a newspaper. You know it's there from the index (or in this case, the front page), but you don't have to go to it if it doesn't appeal to you.

    The fingers are perfectly fine, but what the *bleep* is with the thumb?

    Maybe they were out of time and cut and pasted Ryu's thumb onto her hand. Actually even the main hand portion is rather out of proportion with the fingers.

      Looks like they did that with her face, too.

        lol. At least they didn't use Zangief's hands, face, or er... chest.

    *bleep*ing Chun-Li doesn't even look like a Woman any more. She looks like Ryu With Ox-Horns.

    And I was pissed that they didn't include my favorite female SF character, Cammy. Now I'm relieved that they didn't, or at least hope they don't.

    You guys need to stop picking on her, I bet she's really self-conscious about it

      chautemoc | April 21, 2008
      Yeah, she might come after us with those things if we keep picking.
