Cobb

Post by the_gentoo »

I don't think that Rockstar should have put in the Furies' catcher Cobb in the game. That just spoilt it. What's wrong with what's his face, yellow face?

I think the 2 bats tied together is dope its original, to me it symbolizes a type of leadership. Maybe he shouldnt have been so big then I could find he character alittle more real.

they were very unreal, the leaders like cobb and the hi hats leader ect

but then again, the movie gangs were un real, we only except them beacuse we are use to them from the movie, but the movie had a very comic book, anuther world kinda creepy feel with the odd gangs...and the game just has that on a bigger level with the addition of people like chatterbox and cobb

Chatterbox is fair enough as he is killed so that CrackerJack can take over. But not Cobb.

Nah, Cobb is awesome! The double bat makes him seem more, I dont know, imposing. Same thing with his size for that matter.

My only problem is when you play him in Rumble mode. Whenever he has his bat he always swings it twice and makes it kinda hard to aim...

Yeah i'm not a Cobb fan either , his skull-ish make up and his size kinda just don't work for me.
The look of the Furies just has that special something freaky , bizarre , trippy & scary . Cobbs make up was just kinda obivious.....meh to each his own.

That whole Cobb sequence seemed so out of place to me.
And I always got a Batman villain vibe from Chatterbox.

I don't like how they did any of the Furies really. After seeing the movie a thousand times I remember the facepaint and uniform of each. It was kinda switched up in the game. I don't have too big a problem with Cobb, he's supposed to be a bit over the top.
Who named you leader?

Yea, I agree. The game doesn't have the KISS-style face paint that the movie had. I think Cobb fits perfectly with the over-the-top style of the movie and the game. But I think the main reason R* added him in was becuase, with the Warriors, they were trying to take the brawling genre of games back to the styles of games Like Double Dragon and Streets of Rage, which always had over-the-top bosses like Abobo and Shadow Boss from DD, and there's quite a few from the Streets of  Rage series, too.

personnaly, i don't think cobb should have been in it. I mean he was to strong and made the other furies look weak and puny because he had his huge 3 bats tied together and his catcher pads and stuff :doubt: I would have liked it more if Yellow and black fury was the leader more ;)

I think cobb made it seem more real because in the movie it never said anything about the leader of the gangs. plus th thing with the two bats made it seem like he was somethin' real special. also his size make it seem like the furies workout more than the warriors
