[quote name='gunm']Add me for T5DRO! I'm not sure if anyone will ever play me since my schedule rarely syncs with the CAG Fighting Thread folks, but I won't shrink from any challenges, if you catch me online. I promise to lose honorably. Or at least quickly. As my Internet connection allows. :p[/QUOTE]
Yeah same here. Add me so I can lose to you guys!!
 
I downloaded FF: Special, even though originally I wasn't going to. I had some extra MS points anyway.

Fun game, but it's crazy to see how far the series (and SNK in general) has come since then. The single player, though the controls aren't as fluid as SNK's best, is enjoyable.

The game hasn't even been out a day and Krauser players are popping up all over the place on XBL. >_

I'm happy with Slash so I'm on the fence about paying $40 more for a GG game. I'd rather just save the $40 and put it towards Arcana Heart next month.[/QUOTE]
I have also seen it up for preorder on Gamestop along with KOF XI and Neo Geo Battle Coliseum.

The MSRP is 29.99 according to my preorder at GS. Unless you need to get it through PA for some reason.
 
[quote name='DomLando']If anyone wants to play some Fatal Fury send me a FR.[/QUOTE]

Same here. If anyone else has FF Special, hit me up if you see me on XBL.

I got my first 50 wins against random people on XBL. It would be nice to attempt my next 50 (for the 100 online win achievement) against some CAG FT peeps.

Thanks for the heads up Halo05. Right after I read that a friend of mine sent me a text mentioning the same thing.

Is this stick any good? I know markman reviewed a couple a while back, but I can't remember the site he reviewed them for (is it SDtekken?). 50 dollars is right in my price range since I plan on getting a stick for the 360 soon as well and don't want to drop a ton of money into sticks.

Also do PS3 sticks work with PS2 games? I know this was a problem early on, and if they still don't I will pass and just get a 360 stick until they do.

I like mine a lot. It gets the job done without glaring flaws (at least, to someone who hasn't used super high end sticks.) Definitely worth $50. If you have used the DoA stick on the 360, it's the same thing. It's Hori, so you can depend on it. Also, they patched it so it works with PS2 games.
 
Thats the stick I use (also my first stick).
I love it. Its perfect for me (I haven't used things that are teh spensive, so I don't really know how it stacks up). For $50, its perfect IMO.
 
Yea as a stick it's fine, there are way better sticks (but they also cost more money)... my main gripe with the stick(IMO the arcade stick is fine), is the buttons, the layout is abnormal lol... Usually the face buttons are slanted in the traditional way(see every other stick) lol.... but instead this is slanted in the opposite direction... I have 2 of these sticks and I think they're solid, but I'd rather pay a few more bucks for a quality stick... not a bad stick for starters though...
 
picked up Fatal Fury Special a few hours ago... not too bad though the controls still feel wonky on a 360.

Some Fatal Fury Special gamerpics are up... the Billy Kane pic is sweet as hell and Rodimus needs to pick it up ASAP. More packs will be coming out later... I'm waiting for a Joe, Geese, and Mai pic.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']Too much Tekken DR in your blood ATM probably.[/QUOTE]


nah. I've never liked the older SNK games much, so this was kind of a reminder why. it just feels ancient.

My 360 got 3 rings of death about a week ago. I won't be online for a while :cry: But you better believe I'll be using Billy as my new gamer pic. Is there a wallpaper or anything elese for FF Special?

Just a picture pack. There are only 4 pics, but it is only 60 points.
 
after not being able to play much for a while I finally have some time this weekend. I did realize how much better tekken DR is online after the firmware update. Superb.
 
Rolento, I wanna play against you tomorrow if you have the time. I can play pretty much any time after 12:30. You'll probably win.
 
[quote name='Chacrana']I would so engage in fighting... bah. Twill have to wait till the weekend! Tomorrow shall be a brighter day.[/QUOTE]


stop reading books >_<


I'll be on maybe late tommorow night. I have a huge art show opening happening on saturday that I gotta prep for... put alto of my heart into it so I can't set it aside.

this is the piece in the show... interactive/video game (very early screenshot... like a month ago):

If I'll be home tommorow I'll PM you :)


I'll be on probably later tonight as well.
 
hmmm I'm slowly getting better at dragunov... I just wish I knew better pokes with him... mr slow poke.

I guess my best online guns is Kazuya... Jack needs reworking and everyone else I don't know... Dragunov better be good in Tekken 6 or I bitch.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']GGS B__L :)

tired... need to go to bed...[/quote]
GGs. It was my first Tekken online experience. :lol:

Goddang was the latency getting to me. It just feels horrible when Lee is moving in molasses.
But that wall jump was completely called for. I got King's back and I woulda wall juggled him had the knee actually came out instead of Lee standing there doing nothing. :bomb:

Is the lag usually that bad, or was it just that room? In any case, I gotta adjust my moves. If df+2 feels like it's 30 frames and if I can't hit uf+4, 4, b+1:1~f, 1,2,f~ 1,2,f~ 3,4 consistently, I've gotta dumb things down. :cry:
 
When I get Lee using Mokujin I just do u/f+4, 2,1,1, :/

But yea, for the most part there is lag where you can't do some of the more strict juggles, UNLESS you're playing someone local/with good latency/ping... when I play vs Ace/n8/any other SDT guy that lives nearby, I'm able to do iSW juggles and break throws etc...

I was just kidding about the wall jump ;) . I could tell the guy totally wasn't expecting that.

I could probably get uf+4, 2,1,1, slide guaranteed :lol:

How's the connection between SD and LA? Still pretty good?

Guess I can find out tonight. ;)
 
[quote name='Chacrana']I'm home. Who wants to do the fighting in Tekken.[/QUOTE]



I will in a little while. no 360 chat though, since I don't own a 360. :lol: what? Did you really think I'd keep a weak PC around after getting my new one? or quit Trader Joe's for the semester?!


speaking of which, how many of you guys actually have bluetooth headsets? just wondering if its worth making a chat enabled room...
 
If anybody is interested in joining me Cha and Smallwind, just message me on PS3.

@Cha: dude, sign on to XBL and invite me to chat. I can't handle the silence
 
Yeah those were some GGs with Smallwind and Chac.
I finally got around to beatin down Chac with Raven (who knew?)
Anyway, maybe I'll play with more of you guys next week.
 
Anyone know if they delayed ggxx ac? It was supposed to come out on tuesday but amazon sent me an email saying that the publisher changed the released date to november 6 :bomb:
 
[quote name='gunm']Sad. I could not beat Jinpachi with Christie. Gave up after the 15th continue. :p[/quote]
I HATE Jinpachi Mishima.
Its a good thing that its so unbearably easy to beat him with Jack-5 (b+2, 3+4-repeat 3+4 until over opponents head- anyone?)
I've beat him down with about 9 different characters, I just CAN'T do it with some people though.
I think Alpha-152 from DOA4 is WAY worse.

Heres to having a non-cheapass boss in Tekken 6.
