I have always wondered why there is no giant spider nor a giant snake. They are more or less the usual suspects. Maybe thats why. xd

A Medusa would be cool, though they would be hard to realise, especially the part about the petrificication. They would become a smaller, walking/snaking version of the evil-eye (the other monster that can get you petrified) I guess. I mean, both the Evil-Eye and the Cockatrice gather their whatever before they start the act of petrification, but a Medusa just does so by looking at you with its snake-hair. Maybe that would become a bit unfair.

I think a Phoenix would be more of a dragon-clone than harpy-clone. But I'm totally with you on the whole clone part. Also the Gargoyle was more or less just a no-brainer clone like the Succubus. An always-burning bird would be hard to kill though. Think of all the poor melee-classes. xd

water-combat would be awesome. Monsters from the depth of water are still the creepiest any legends can hold. Screw that, even today the sea holds so many creepy fish, it gives me chills.

Personally, I would say Capcom should add some northern gods, centaurs, a centipede, the titans from greek mythology, a giant frog, maybe south-american and egyptian gods and some sort of shape-shifting liquid monster thingy. Also, just swap some of these bandits for barbarians and other human-like enemies just to bring in some variety.
