Is Capcom trying to compete with games that don't suck?

Sounds like Steve Blum doing his Wolverine voice with a drunken slur.
Not that I'm complaining; Asura still seems like the only character out of Capcom action game that I feel can be taken at least remotely seriously, even with all the super saiyan screaming.
Wonder if we'll get to fight that planet-sized guy.

I already had an interest in the game (thought the art style looked great and the sheer DBZ+God of War+Asian mythology and religion+Pseudo brawler, multiplied to ****-all-senseless levels without seeming too obnoxious ie Bayonetta certainly made me dart an eyelid), and the least I can say is that the atmosphere certainly seems more original than I'd'a thought at first. From what the combat thus far shows, I don't really notice Asura there using anything other than his fists; I'm wondering if they'll exercise a bit of variety in the combat. I'm normally not particularly a fan of outrageously overpowered displays of overpoweredness in video games, but I find alot of enjoyment seeing these fights and scenes in Asura's Wrath, cutscene and gameplay. Maybe it's just cuz the approach seems more akin to something of my tastes instead of just trying to make it look slick only to make it look corny.
But why the hell end that trailer on a cliffhanger at that particular shot when we've already seen the guy punch a planet-sized Buddha so hard that it blew up? Not even counting it was delivered to said Buddha's East Coast-sized finger.
