For years I've pretty much scoffed at any story mode in any fighting game because they always struck me as irrelevant. This is still more or less true with MK as the gameplay remains king, but at least when I played through Story Mode, I gave a shit about what was happening.

I gave a shit too. I give it two shits up for wasting my time with that dreck of a story.

Hey so who wants to do the bellagio buffet at evo this year? Rio is good an convenient too, BUT THEY DONT HAVE OSTRICH!


or didnt in 09
 
Looking for a new main for Arcade Edition:

Sagat -- my first pick but his play style has been putting me to sleep
Fei Long -- his game feels a bit weird but I'm trying him next, has some tricky links so far.
Ibuki -- tons of fun but I feel she's going to require a lot execution practice to be effective with, and at the end of the day I hear she's not very viable regardless.

Why is low tier so fun to play =[

Sakura is jumping up in AE so logically I should stick with her, but I feel I could do better with someone else.

Wait, are you saying those 3 are low tier or Sakura?

If my hook up still works, I can get 4 or 5 people into the bellagio buffet for free.

Thanks for the link AxC.

If I do go this year, I'm definitely down.

Went to Bellagio Buffer near the end of EVO last year and it was amazing.

Same here. I never expect much story-wise from fighters but I was actually interested in what was going on. I also like the little nods they take towards previous past elements, like calling Johnny Cage "Chopped Liver" and Quan Chi & Shang Tsung's team up a "Deadly Alliance."
 
personally i'd rather just to go a real restaurant in vegas since for $35 you can get some pretty damn good food with portions that would fill you up anyway

but i'd go just to make fun of everybody

[quote name='Jimbo Slice']Fei is arguably the best character in the game
[/QUOTE]

He was already great in Super, but no one really played him outside of (eventually) Mago, Inthul, Starnab and one of my friends locally (who knocked Floe into losers @ NCR 2010 and then again out of the tournament)

Already great character, getting hella buffs.
 
So ... SFxT ... and Cole as an exclusive guest character for the PS Vita version. Maybe the PS3 one too, it didn't specify.

I didn't expect Capcom out of all companies to do something like this, at least not to their fighters.

Agreed, this is really disappointing stuff. Can't wait to get my exclusive Ryu costume for pre-ordering at Best Buy (or maybe I'll go with Ken from Gamestop).... I hate modern gaming.

(by the way, that was just an example, they don't actually have exclusive costumes coming - yet)

I thought it was the fact that everyone else got nerfed (notably Dhalsim, one of his harder matchups). This sort of phenomena happened with Sagat too. He stayed pretty much the same and his harder matchups were weakened.
 
Not me or anyone else that I can imagine. We heard about Super HD for what seemed like years. Hell, there was even a beta for it. At this point it seems like we have less than 2 months for 3s.

I don't know if it's overshadowing anything, I'm equally excited for both but at least I have a release date for AE.

RETAILER EXCLUSIVE COSTUMES CONFIRMED BY JIMBO SLICE, YOU HEARD IT FIRST ON CAG!!! :cool:

Console exclusive guest characters that have nothing to do with the two main franchises in a crossover game is stupid.

On a positive note, I'm really excited about 3S Online. My mind was blown that it'll be available this summer - I figured at least Nov/Dec.

I got eliminated by a norcal Fei player last year at evo... I wonder if he's your friend. =[

and that :)

Fei got the Chicken Wing Nerf, but everything else is the same or better. I still don't understand all the nerfs/buffs in AE but will be buying the DLC for both PS3 and 360 :lol:

Do you remember his name? My friends' name was Doug (or Ballatician as he sometimes goes by), White Guy :)

Also like everyone I wasn't expecting 3S Online until the end of the year or longer.
 
Excited about KOFXIII. I liked what I did get to play in Arcades.

I'm sort of undecided now about getting AE for both Consoles. Mostly because I played most of you fools in AE on PS3 :lol:

I thought a lot of us switched to the 360? I know option, esper and beef don't have a choice since they don't own one.

I think in the life of SFIV/SSFIV, I played on PS3 because I didn't have a working 360.

I bought Super for SSFIV sort of late when I bought my 360 during December 2010. Even then I played a so-so amount with my friends who live locally as opposed to stupid grind sessions on PS3 :)

You, Beef and Esper are probably who I played most on PSN SFIV/SSFIV.
 
I'm not overly excited but yeah, I'll get KOF13, but not day one. I'm defiantly waiting a few months for a price drop. Sorry SNK but you hosed me with KOF12. Shelling out $60 for that half-assed game, never again. There's no denying KOF13 plays great, but it's just too little too late IMO.

I think SNK should've gone back to Fatal Fury with a MOTW2 or something.
 
Man, forget about SSFIV AE. It' s all about. . .

Yeah that's him, I remember seeing him on a stream. I didn't know the Fei matchup back then so I panicked and switched to Cammy (from Abel), and my Cammy is freeeee.

Nothing to feel bad about :)

Even when you know the Fei matchup, Doug is a ridiculously good player with execution to match. I think he got 10th last year at NCR?

What's funny is after I read your post, I went online and he invited me a XBL Party/SSFIV: AE game with a bunch of our friends. He thought the story was pretty funny. He said sooner or later he knew he would play someone that posts on SRK or any other forums.

It's weird going back and trying to play SSFIV again. They did so much to Seth that it's more frustrating than anything. I was pretty headstomp/dive kick shenanigans reliant and both got nerfed, so it feels really awkward playing him now. I need to either get used to him in AE, find a new main that clicks with me, or just not play the game at all and stick to MVC3.
 
Hey I got AE for xbacks, we should play.


Im thinking about picking up cammy again. Guy/Fei/Cammy/Oni??
