Mayor Mike Haggar wants to take back the streets but Mad Gear have other plans, they proceed to kidnap Haggar's daughter Jessica and make their demands.

    TURN SEQUENCE • Play cards from your hand. • Total up your Power and purchase cards with total cost less than or equal to that total. • As soon as you buy or gain a card, place it into your discard pile, unless instructed otherwise. • You may play additional cards even after making purchases. END OF TURN • Resolve any “at the end of your turn” effects. • Place all the cards you played and any remaining cards from your hand into your discard pile, and draw a new hand of five cards. • Fill each empty slot in the Line-Up with a card from the top of the main deck. • If the top card of the Stage stack is face down, flip it face up. Do not reshuffle your discard pile just because you have no cards in your deck. Wait until you must draw, discard, or reveal a card from your deck. Then shuffle your discard pile, and it becomes your new deck. The game ends immediately when either of the following two conditions is met: • You are unable to flip up to a new Stage on the stack. • You are unable to refill all five slots of the Line-Up. ©CAPCOM.

  • Transgender in Games a Comparative Study of Transgender Characters in Games
    Transgender in Games A Comparative Study of Transgender Characters in Games Emil Christenson and Danielle Unéus Faculty of Arts Department of Game Design Bachelor’s Thesis in Game Design, 15 Credits Programme: Game Design and Graphics Supervisors: Ann-Sofie Lönngren, Hans Svensson Examiner: Masaki Hayashi September, 2017 Abstract This thesis contains an analysis of transgender characters in games. The method for selecting the characters was based on the importance of the character in the game with the requirement that the game must have sold at least half a million units. The goal was to analyse well-known characters in gaming history to get an overview of how the game industry has represented transgender in games. Out of 102 characters only six of them met the requirements and have been analysed with the use of queer theory. Gender and how the characters break the norms of what is feminine and what is masculine is in focus. In the analysis, the characters are examined through their mannerism, design, personality and dialogue. The analysis is then summarized into identifiable patterns. The result of this thesis is a better understanding of how transgender characters are portrayed in the game industry. Keywords: Transgender, Video Games, LGBTQ, Character Representation, Queer Theory Abstrakt I denna uppsats analyseras transgenuskaraktärer i spel. De karaktärer som analyseras har valts ut baserat på hur mycket karaktären syns i spelet och ett krav är att spelet måste ha sålt minst en halv miljon exemplar. Målet var att analysera välkända transgenuskaraktärer från spelhistorien för att få en överblick över hur spelindustrin representerar transgender i spel.
