[quote name='PhrostByte']LOL what BlazBlue over SFIV? No way.. BlazBlue is a great fighter.. and a worthy successor to Guilty Gear, but come on. Not only is SFIV an SF game, but it's an SF game done the right way. Fighter of the decade :p[/QUOTE]And that right there is why I voted for BB--because I would have been voting for Street Fighter IV based off of the series' past successes and not for SFIV's quality alone.

Don't get me wrong, SFIV is a well-above-average-quality game, but it's not a "great" game yet. It has balancing, move-prioritization & hit-box issues, a lack of stage variety, a sorry excuse for offline mode variety, paid DLC stored on the disc, a forgettable soundtrack & terrible opening and closing story mode videos. Hopefully, Super Street Fighter IV will go a long way towards fixing these issues--thus becoming a "great" game. I want SSFIV to fix those issues so I can enjoy it for years to come like I did with SSFII:TNC on the SNES.

My point is that it takes more than just an online mode to make a "fighter of the decade"/great-quality game--it takes a total package of solo, multi & online options in addition to having great gameplay & and a memorable soundtrack to be the best. Personally, I think BlazBlue did these things better than SFIV.

Don't soil your birthday with BlazBlue, get something manly like MW2!

I'm sure almost all his friends will get him MW2.

Doesn't really sound like you should since all you did was play SFIV on it for a bit. Do you have to pay to get it repaired? If so, then fuck it.[/QUOTE]

I unplugged everything until I figure something out.

It's out of Warranty, so it'll probably cost anywhere from $100-150+ to get it fixed from what I've been reading.
 
i always thought that sf4 was a mediocre game. if it weren't for the hype, it probably would've been trashed like cfe and all the "high level" crap never figured out
 
[quote name='Rodimus']I just got the best Birthday gift of all. I'm going to be a father!!! :whee:[/QUOTE]Congratulations!!!:D:D:D

[quote name='Jimbo Slice']Also... SF4 > BB. Who cares about single-player, stage variety and the soundtrack?[/QUOTE]People who care about more than just pwning noobs online with their elite skillz. Also an acceptable answer: Me.

If that's the case, fuck it, not worth it. Might as well buy a new one at that price anyway.

Got a new Jasper model and everything!:mrgreen: Just go ahead and get a new one, it'll be better to have a new model with a 3-year warranty than to fix the old one for a couple of bucks cheaper. I can't guarantee your Xbox 1 saves(if any) with survive the transfer, though.
 
I apologize for launching the FGT into a "Rodimus" personal thread but thanks for everyones best wishes. It's been the most amazing day for me.

If I can get the Arcade for $100, I'm down. If not and I can get a HD-DVD player for less than that, I'll probably just get rid of my Xbox 360. Who knooooows.

Congrats Rodimus!!

It stinks that this happened like 1 week after Wal-Mart was doing the "buy an Arcade, get a 100 dollar giftcard" promo.

Hey axc, you can get refurb 360's console only for around 90 - 110 bucks on ebay. Thats how I got the one Im currently using, since i had all the cables and a harddrive already, cost me 95 or so bucks.


Has an hdmi input to boot!
 
I went to a BlazBlue tournament today.

I went 0-2... never won a single round, and got perfected 3 times

and the tournament organizer kept calling me JEKKL

:cry: :cry: :cry:

habby b-day rodimus D! the b is not a typo, it stands for baby!

but what does the other b stand for?

that's a typo.

I wouldn't buy anything game related off of eBay. Lots of pirated stuff is there.

At times like this, it makes me wish I had SF4 on PS3. Stupid RRoD.

Thanks D! I'll have to keep that in mind. The HDMI input would be nice since I just bought a 4X1 HDMI Switch recently.

Heavy, I know you're trying to help but I gotta warn axc.

DO NOT DO THIS AXC! I REPEAT, DO NOT DO THIS. You'd be surprised at how many people are selling banned 360s on ebay without mentioning they're banned. Not to mention, I'm sure you'd want a full warranty this time too if you get another one.

Got SF4 PS3 and never used my 360 again since that day. Seriously, make the switch and stop the suffering.

Yeah you do need to be careful, but you should be fine as long as you look at the user feedback. Although if you do decide to do it and get fucked over I blame Markman!

quick question:

i'm looking to replace the CRT TV that i game on, with an HDTV. it needs to meet these criteria:

1: lag-free
2: component-input (for the Wii. stupid Wii, always messing things up.)
3: cheap!

something around 22"-24" would be cool. monitors are fine since I'd rather get an external sound system anyway.

any suggestions?
i ask you guys because you *should* know what doesn't lag.

Go on...

And the true dilemma, buy used during a b2g1, or buy new? Cuz I mean, b2 = BlazBlue and SFIV g1= yummy? Y'know what I'm sayin'?! :rofl: :lol: Hah...

Also, I showed this to the GGT guys, figured I'd show you guys too: I told Santa about it. Maybe I was a good enough boy this year to deserve it.
 
[quote name='Ahadi']I haven't picked up SF4 yet. Should I just hold off until Super Street Fighter IV?[/QUOTE]

I wouldn't be able to hold off until Spring knowing that I could still get SFIV for ~$20 and enjoy several hundred hours of gameplay until then.

That's the one you want if you need it to work with the wii as well. If you are willing to keep the wii hooked up to something else than this is a better choice.

I have two of these in my office at work and love them. Went ahead and bought one to replace the one for my desktop at home and am still very happy with it. I haven't done much gaming on it ( only at work really with Dawn of War II ) but it was smooth as silk.

ahh thanks
i actually have an older version of the first monitor, works like a charm, no lag.

the tv is mainly for a 360 and a Wii. the ps3 hardly gets used. i used to use my monitor but my house is getting re-organized and basically the computer will be separate from the 360 and in a different room than the router. and i can't stand wireless connection playing on the 360...
 
since i'm playing cod mw2 omg the netcode is atrocious
shot so many times behind corners (curving bullets), shots not coming out, etc.

they should've just used ggpo netcode

I have a 34" CRT Tube HDTV, sony, local to you, for cheap. Hit me up in cagfight if you are interested. Has 2 component in for PS3/360/Wii/PS2, including DVI in for digital (good for PS3). It is, of course, 100% lag free since it is CRT.
 
Pre-ordered T6 PSP today. I'll pick it up after internship work tomorrow. I really miss playing it.

Nice to hear the load times on PSP version are better than home console.
