UPDATE: Character Art - Tyson Logan and Sid!

Sat Sep 24, 2005 1:27 am

So that's why Nate is acutally IN the game... he has little brother.

Wierd, I was surprised when I read Tyson is Nate's younger brother.... I couldn't first believe it... but it's true.. omg. :heh

And in Sid's bio it sounds like he's a piece of dirt. And maybe he is... "Crazy for Kaori", FUCK THAT BASTARD! And 27 years old??? SHIT!! :eek

Its gay hes japanese personally, he fits the perfect guy for Kaori too well, I love Tyson now I know hes Nates younger bro it rules.

Reading Sids bio it kinda makes me hope Mac does fuck him up, I like dhim up untill his bio.

Now I've done a complete 180 Tyson pwnz.

What kind of Japanese parent would call their son Sid

Hi everybody I havn't been around so much cause I've almost forgot the site but now Im back.

My favorite of all these new characters is Skye, she is awesome! But I also like Elise, Mac, Psymon and Zoe.

I myself use only my first name also.
Sid would kick ass if he wasn't from japan..i'm pretty sure we WONT understand a shit from what he will talk..there for he does not make any point of existence

even after all Sid will pwn.. we need more Warhol ppl...including me =D

I'm liking Tyson more than Sid now. I'm glad there's someone Tyson can look up to.

Sat Sep 24, 2005 6:34 am

The funny thing is I think Sid is awesome. That's my character pick 'o the month and will most likely be the one I choose to play the game through with first. I like ems, so piss on yaz!

A Japanese programmer for the Final Fantasy series might. They have a recurring character named "Cid" that's in damn near every game.

Really? Wow! Never knew that. Thx

Sat Sep 24, 2005 8:22 am

Finally, they give us our character bios after forgetting about us last week! :heh

j/k

Tyson is Nate's little brother? Whoa! That's crazy! I still like Nate more. There's something about Tyson that I don't like. But Tyson does have Nate's clothes from SSX 3, or at least the same type. I noticed that a while ago.

Sid? It's pretty cool that we have another international character, but it would have been better if he wasn't from Japan so the characters would be more diverse (There's 5 from America, 2 from Canada, 2 from Japan, and 1 from Australia; so like a total of 3 International characters, none of them beign European). But anyways, I don't like Sid that much either. He seems like one of those weird guys that I cannot explain. Haha. Sid/Kaori is crazy.

Anyways, I should play all 3 of the new characters and really see their personality in the actual game before I make my final opinions on them. So far, none of the 3 are as appealing to me.

Do you pronounce it like an S or a K? C's confuse me :heh

ENGRISH!

Sid's named in Japanese is シド, or "Shido." It's pretty common. Actually, just about any common name in America and western Europe has an Asian equivalent. Some even originated in Asia to begin with (i.e, Amy, Ray, Kay, Mika, Nori, Tori, etc.)

Sat Sep 24, 2005 9:16 am

... I'm gunna go with Tyson and Skye throughout the game... they seem the coolest right now.

Will you create Griff?

why am i not surprised u like Sid!

as far i am concerned Sid's bio is about as cool as stepping in shit, and as exciting as stale bread! :yes

too bad too cause he looked promising, why'd they have to go and make him a pretentious prick!

i mean cmon, ". Sid rarely
speaks to anyone other than his crew; he looks down upon all -
especially the other SSX riders and skiers most"

sounds like a real winner!!

apparently they needed a villian in the game!

Sat Sep 24, 2005 3:44 pm

as i said before 'xept the fact that he's japanese ..he kicks ass.

Sat Sep 24, 2005 3:46 pm

*does a double take*

SLD = Filip

Is this a permanent change?

Sat Sep 24, 2005 4:35 pm

Dolphingirl, it sounds like this change is a direct result of solid being inspired by Sid's lack of last name and his "pwnage"

Yeah, I kind'a half wondered that...but, didn't expect an official name change from it... :heh

Sat Sep 24, 2005 8:55 pm

"Shido" isn't really a name in Japanese, but "Shidoh" (with a long final 'o' sound) (しどう) is, although it's still not too common and doesn't sound much at all like its English equivalent of "Sid." ('sid' versus 'she-doe'? Not too similar - phonetically, at least.) I dunno, I just think the guy's lame and was hoping for a better international character. Oh well, despite bios and all, it's still too early to tell for sure.

No..Filip is my real name..and i used to use it only a long long time ago when my dad left me..i hate him so much that i don't want his second name.

The idea was that Gondee thought that my name is more usful since most of the people here call me Filip.

Sun Sep 25, 2005 3:26 am

Aaah...I get it now...so it is a formal name change from her on out then...right? Well, I like it better than esselldee (SLD)... :heh

Sun Sep 25, 2005 8:17 am

i was right! i think i was the only one who thought he was japanese! go back 10 odd pages and you'll see! omg i am so clever lol! Nate's bro? when i first read it i thought it meant he was Nate's son! aha! i was really lookin 4ward to usin sid but now that i know he's japanese...he's gonna piss me off big time.

Sid is cool, and when I first saw the screens of him I thought "omg, that looks like another american", but then when the high res screen of him came up on IGN, he looked so british.

So Im kinda surprised when I read he is japanese... :wtf

He looks so OT-stylish. He has the SSX power. I think Sid is going to be the winner of the whole Tour. :yes
