Everyone seems so used to how weird Capcom and Marvel characters already are, that they fail to see how much Amingo fits in perfectly. Let me describe alist A man who wears blue spandex, underwear on the outside, red boots, and has little wings on the side of his head. He is in disguise, but his eyes, nose, and mouth are not covered. A Karate man with spikey red hair who shoots lasers out of his hands. An octupus with only one big eye, but shoots many eyes at you. Little Red Riding Hood with artilery. And these are not even extreme cases. To some one who knows nothing of Marvel or Capcom, Amingo appears to be one of the least weird characters. He and Iceman are the two charcters who people find the least weird. They say "O.k., he is made of ice. He can make ice. Yes, that makes sense. And Amingo is a plant. He can make vines grow. Yes, this also makes sense. But Thanos? A purple faced man with ripple chin who makes boulders grow, and thows you with electric mind power? What!?!". So please, if you don't like Amigno, it's o.k. Opinions are good. But adimit he belongs. Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 02:19 PM: They might not be weird but they still suck ass. Posted by Foriegn Man on 04:19:2001 02:25 PM: NO nononononono! They ARE ALL weird! You missed my point! I Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 02:26 PM: OK so there wierd and suck ass, wow thats one hell of a combo Posted by [darkgohan45] on 04:19:2001 02:26 PM: no. Each character has their own inability. Use each character's abilites to make something out of that character. I believe there are no "sucky characters". Cept Roll :P Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 02:28 PM: No sucky charecters when was the last time you heard of some one winning with the team of Roll,Servbot and.........does it really matter whos the 3rd person.. Posted by Foriegn Man on 04:19:2001 02:29 PM: I won with Roll, Servebot and Dan! I beat my dad... Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 02:30 PM: do you really want me to comment on that. Posted by [darkgohan45] on 04:19:2001 02:30 PM: yes. Those dou (roll and servey) still can weaken the enemy. THus meaning that after they weaken them out, the third whomever can maybe defeat the last person or two.

It's your dad! :P Posted by Foriegn Man on 04:19:2001 02:33 PM: I love my dad. He's fat... Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 02:34 PM: I'm talking about playing decent people, no offence but not your dad. there is no way Roll could stand up to cable or anyone else for that matter Posted by Foriegn Man on 04:19:2001 02:48 PM: Big Pete, do you only use characters who are easy to win with? Which charcters do you use just because they are fun to use? When you just want to have fun, and not care if you win. Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 02:54 PM: Fun Charecters Guile,Dalsim,Dan,Rubyheart,Omega Red,B.B Hood.. see the diffrence is I know that against some decent players these charecters suck Posted by DarkZero on 04:19:2001 03:10 PM: I'm sure everybody can beat their dad. Hell, my dad probably doesn't know how to hold a controller, but he like DDR with the pad. Everybody is not weird, cept maybe sonson. They just have different abilities and so on, but I kinda agree with you on Amingo. Posted by Diamond on 04:19:2001 03:30 PM: What? Dadis not challenger! You suck to beat on Dad . Get real opponent loser Posted by Foriegn Man on 04:19:2001 03:31 PM: To me, Son Son is no weirder than anyone else. She's based on chinese myth, most of here moves are from that legend. They are weird out of context, but just as weird as any superhero is, or most capcom game characters are. The thing about her that I love is that the logic from here old game comes back with the POW block. The POW block is one of the oldest video game attacks, and I'm glad it lives on. If you hit the block, the turltes flip over! Video games have their own logic, thats what is most fun for them. Same with comic books. Things don't make any sense.FUN! Big Pete, those are fun characters! Thanks for telling me the information about the subject that we talked about! Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 03:32 PM: Thank you Diamond, very well put Posted by Foriegn Man on 04:19:2001 03:34 PM: YOU DON"T KNOW MY DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD! Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 03:35 PM: SonSon is a half assed attempt at a dragon ball Z charecter.fling cloud,turns into a big monkey, has that big ass stick it's all a little to weird WARNING:the previous post does no reflect the thoughts of a rational think person... Posted by Foriegn Man on 04:19:2001 03:40 PM: Hey big Pete, read the origin of Sos Son post! It can fix the wrong information that is in your brain. She is not a rip off of Dragon Ball at all! Not even a tiney, tiny, little bit! Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 03:40 PM: But once again she still sucks.... Posted by Foriegn Man on 04:19:2001 03:45 PM: It's true. My dad always tries to beat me with her, Cable, and Sentinel, but he just can't win... Posted by Lar-ry$ on 04:19:2001 03:46 PM: I thought SonSon was from BOF.....Right?? Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 03:52 PM: Lar-ry$ I think you have brought this topic to a close with that comment and I thank you, Posted by Foriegn Man on 04:19:2001 03:58 PM: No Larry, she is not. And speaking of which, why is capcom so non-inclusive of there console games in the vs. series? Only mega man, Tron, And Jill Valentine appear. Every one else is from and Arcade game. I think the BOF, Bionic Commando, and others are as good. But they may never appear on the Capcom team. Sad Posted by Diamond on 04:19:2001 04:25 PM: eat it up!! cheese in ass Posted by Marek21 on 04:19:2001 04:26 PM: i'm just posting this cuz then my name's on the top three posts Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 04:29 PM: Diamond your starting to scare me Posted by Marek21 on 04:19:2001 04:32 PM: alright, top three again... wtf, only one post every 60 secs? Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 07:08 PM: just to reiterate Amingo suck big ass... Thank you Posted by The Orochi on 04:19:2001 08:28 PM: What are you talking about? He's everyones favorite cactus Posted by Foriegn Man on 04:19:2001 08:37 PM: Amingo was designed by the same head designer of Power Stone 2. Most people don't like those designs either. But for those of us that understand fun over toughness, we love the sensei look. Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 09:58 PM: He's a Cactus with a guitar that's just not normal Posted by Don Knotts on 04:19:2001 10:31 PM: quote: Originally posted by Big Pete Roasa He's a Cactus with a guitar that's just not normal But like the guy who started the post said, they're all pretty fucking weird. Especially the super heroes, which we all take for granted. Amingo really isn't any diffrent. Posted by Big Pete Roasa on 04:19:2001 10:33 PM: hwo about this for a game some wierd fuckers Vs some even more weird fuckers... I think that pretty much sums up MVC2 Posted by Diamond on 04:19:2001 11:07 PM: Word. Posted by WeaponXtreme on 04:19:2001 11:10 PM: i dunno, amingo is a chubby creepy cactus man... whered they find that "dude" anyhow? All times are GMT. The time now is 01:14 AM.
