There's been a lot of talk about Haggar from Final Fight as the grappler, so I don't know about Gief making it in. Grapplers don't fit well in Vs games usually (though Gief is unusually beast in MvC2). I guess we'll see.

And back on point; yeah the fighting game community are bitches. Rampant elitism, contradictions, stagnant growth; they're their own worst enemy. The MLG situation proves this in spades. The gaming community at large were pretty shamed with how Sonic fans reacted to Sonic 4, well the truth is fighting gamers are like that on a regular. They're so cynical and overly critical some people pointed out that they don't seem to like fighting games at all. Pathetic.

The idea that people choose characters based on tiers is epic gay to me. The idea that the fighting game genre is somehow outside of the general gaming industry (in regard to modern design trends) is pompous. I'm glad Capcom and other companies are smarter than that, otherwise fighting games would remain in a drought.
