[quote name='KingBroly']Alright. That's 3 characters I know nothing about now.[/QUOTE]

They came about in the alpha games. Cody and Guy are from an 80s arcade game called Final Fight. All suck and all bad choices to bring back. Where the fuck are our 3rd Strike guys at. Also why bring guys back from Alpha but not have Juli in it. Hell it makes since to have her in it with T.Hawk back. /more bitching and moaning
 
Never used cody, and his character design is still that insanely bad prison outfit. No hype there. But Adon and Guy looks awesome, and Guy is so fun to play, and has a good mixup game which is a lot of fun. Adon is just badass.

Also, i had a McRib today. It was awesome.

Guy, Cody and Adon are all welcome additions by me and I think most people. Guy and Adon are both a ton of fun to play, and as long as they beef up Cody's move set a little bit he should be fun as well.

Juli on the other hand, would be a real head-scratcher if revealed and I think a lot of people would be upset that Juli made it in over character _______. I don't think many people will bitch about these being the Alpha characters they selected.


[quote name='blitz6speed']Also, i had a McRib today. It was awesome.[/QUOTE]

Those still exist??!?!
 
Also... who is up for another round of interview blogs? I could probably post 2 over Thanksgiving Break.

Anyone care to nominate anyone? I still want to get Rolento interviewed.
 
[quote name='blitz6speed']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.[/QUOTE]
i'm looking for an LCD because things move around a lot and i don't like carrying 34" CRT behemoths.

we had a 27" CRT at AX and i hated that thing. i didn't want that in my house =)

[/QUOTE]

I'll retract my comment about Adon, but for me I still don't like Cody or Guy. Cody will need buffed up a lot. With out A-ism boosting him into broken he is pretty damn weak. Guy I just have never liked, and with options like Gen and Lee I never saw a reason to pick him, thus not putting any real time in with him.

I think Juli would fit well into the roster, more so that T.Hawk is back. I'm sure I am in a minority in this but I think it would be cool.

Really I just want Makoto back, and then I won't care who else is added.
 
while looking at monitors/tvs i was made painfully aware of how much i hate the fact that you have to really look for stats regarding input lag.

some guy saying "there's no lag at all" is just awful. i never believe any hearsay on that.

if only there was some sort of timecode test database...
 
I can finally play Street Fighter IV the way it was meant to be played, with Cody as my main. My dreams have come true.
 
Cody and Guy? Ughhhhhh

Adon was my main in SFA2, so I'm excited to see what changes they've done to him.

Seriously guys.....Rolento > Cody/Guy
 
Adon's one of my favorite Alpha characters, awesome. Guy is okay, but I've never been a fan of Cody.

Jekki - I love hate mail. It's so counter productive cause it makes me smile. But I don't get it, cause I have more respect for a good Dhalsim player than a cheesy Akuma player.
 
[quote name='notorious_pip']Apparently T6 is getting its online patch on Thursday/Thanksgiving.

It still doesn't sound like they actually fixed the netcode. You can just more ably avoid the worst laggy matches.[/QUOTE]

I'm not expecting any miracles, but we'll see how it goes.

Hey now, I'd take Rolento over Adon any day. Cody is a welcome addition for me, Guy's alright but I never liked Adon at all.
 
[quote name='Thomas96']You know I was listening to some Anime Music.. then I ran into this.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBBYXOcDfVg

Based on the music alone he should be added to the game! You'll know the game when you hear the music.


SOUL CALIBUR!!!!!
[/QUOTE]
InuYasha would be bad ass in Soul Calibur! That PS1 InuYasha fighting game that came out in the U.S. during the beginning of the show's Adult Swim run was pretty good. Not the deepest thing in the world, but still good, nonetheless.
 
ALl you guys goin $$$gy over me now for SFIV?

honestly, any FF character in SSFIV makes me happy since I "tried" to main them in SFA games... plus they are fun as fuck.

playin T6 PSP as well ^_^



Imma be mainin Cody most likely now. I loved him in SFA3.
 
Getting close to the holidays... what does everyone have on their wish lists??

I have:
Raiden Fighters Aces
Diary of a Wimpy Kid books (for my classroom)
Left 4 Dead 2

I agree. Either Rolento or this guy and I be even more happy.

Honestly based off the new roster, I'll be finally comfortable with a character...

It's probably because I've played so much alpha.

Dont worry, youll hate Guy even more when I eat you alive with mine !!!

I fucking love McRibs. I hope I can get some here soon. :bouncy:

Lame as hell. Hopefully it does help, but fuck Namco if it doesn't.

I can't wait to use Ibuki in SSFIV. Hopefully her SA2 from 3S is still beastly, if she has it.

Also a bit late, but congratulations on the kid, Rodimus. Now it's Markman's turn. :)
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']Well, MM is living anti quote 16 so its gotta happen sooner or later.[/QUOTE]

Then he'll have to sell some sticks to make room for a baby crib. :bouncy:
 
If Hakan looks like this...
ECW Wrestler - Sabu.
I'm so going to main him. Kinda fits the 'turkish wrestler who loves oil' character.
 
[quote name='heavyd853']Dont worry, youll hate Guy even more when I eat you alive with mine !!![/QUOTE]

Pfffft. I'm probably still stick with Seth so J.HP all dayyyyy on Guy. I know it's not going to happen but Adon should have CC's.

Not much I really want.

-3 or 4 Blu-Rays's on my Want List
-A Thermal Shirt
 
I just cant get back into SF4.
I loved it when it came out, and recently bought the pc version hoping to get back into it.

I dunno what is wrong with it/me.
 
i'm getting more and more skeptical of ssf4

sf4 was cool in the sense that it was simple, except for c.viper and her funky canceling shenaniangiangaings.

this game is looking more and more complicated
 
It was a beautiful April afternoon Sakura was wandering the grounds of Aohura high school, they were having a festival today, people from all over town were walking around, enjoying the sights, sounds smells and tastes the school had to offer. The various classes had set up games, activities and food stalls for people to enjoy. Sakura had stopped by the judo club's display, they were selling Noodles. "Egh...these are awful" she thought to herself "They all like wimps too...I'd give anything to spar with Master Ryu again..." She sighed to herself, the sight of a lovey dovey couple passing hand in hand compounded her melancholy. "Sa-ku-RA!" A bright and cheery voice called out from behind her. Suddenly she was being groped. Quickly she turned around to see her best friend Rin, grinning ear to ear. "Rin!? What are you doing here?" Sakura said, flustered. "It's my school too silly, stop being so love lorn, lets go have some fun!" "All right, all right" A sheepish grin crept up on Sakura, Rin had such a healing effect on her. "what do you want to do?" "Well, I want to get some Taiyaki, and some udon, and a chocobanana, then there's a concert, then I wanna go to a haunted house, then some icecream then I..." "Ok Ok! I get it, I get it, slow down...lets get something to eat, I'm starved"

On the other side of the school, an odd phenomena was occurring. Ordinary people would be walking along, minding their own business until suddenly a cold chill went down their spine, a feeling of dread and evil would pass through them. Occasionally somebody would spot a large man in a dark GI standing, but he would fade away like a ghostly apparition and move on. Unbeknownst to them this was Akuma's Ashura warp. Teleporting from spot to stop he could travel quickly and silently, his movements invisible to the untrained eye. "Crowds" he thought to himself, rife with disgust. He began passing through them, literally. As he passed through a pregnant woman, he felt the child inside her die from his malicious intent. He smiled to himself. "Where are you Sakura? Take me to your master"

"Man, you sure can eat a lot" Sakura said to Rin. "eh heh...heeee" She beamed at her, Sakura wiped off a chocolate smudge and smiled back. "So what was that band called?" "Um...lets see..." Rin checked her guide "After school tea time...apparently they are really good, half of the people here are to see them, we should head to the auditorium if we want to get good seats" Rin grabbed her hand and began to run towards the multipurpose gym.

Akuma smelled the air inside the hallway. The stench of humanity was less prevalent. He felt he could start to hone in on his prey. He opened the first door he came across. It was full of loud young women smoking, the talking and laughing stopped abruptly as he stepped in. They all stared at him. One of them, the ring leader apparently, stepped forward. "What the hell are you doing in the girls washroom you creep!? Get the hell out of here you pervert!" "Where is Sakura?" He asked coldly, his deep red eyes burning with contempt for her pitiful soul. "How the hell should I know!? Who the hell is that anyway!?" The other girls began to chime in, harping on him, cheering on their leader. "Whats wrong with you, coming in here all of a sudden, asking weird questions. Did you escape from a mental hospital or something!?" She put her cigarette out on one of his massive pectorals "You smell like old meat, you dirty old man" "Blood" Akuma said, he had had enough of their impudence. He figured a medium punch would be more than enough for her. He took a half step and unleashed a devastating chop, catching the ring leader cleanly at the center of her head. Her eyes rolled back as her soft skull concaved under the massive force. She saw her teeth, shattered and broken suspended in the air for a brief split second as she fell to the ground, they sparkled like little pearls before her head hit the ground. She thought it was a beautiful sight. Her posse, alarmed by the fact their leader was bloodied and having an epileptic fit were not so pleased. One of them rushed up to Akuma, accidentally stepping in the pool of freshly released bodily fluids. "What have you done!?!" Akuma could not hear the rest. Their fear and shock had turn to anger, their hysterical cries were indecipherable. Several of them had produced knives. Akuma began storing energy in his legs. He pondered if he was put on earth to kill...for about a second. He released that energy. Bolts of lightning enveloped his leg, spinning at hurricane speeds he unleashed his tatsumaki zankuukyaku upon their unsuspected bodies. His devastating kick cut through them like a hot knife through butter. Their fleshy bellies offered no resistance as his foot passed through them, ripping out their insides and sending blood and guts careening, like a blender. On his first rotation he counted 5 hits, five large chunks of mid section ripped out and sent flying in the opposite direction. A couple of them had fallen, those unfortunate enough to still be standing felt his foot pass through them again, effortlessly going through their spine and bisecting them. 7 dead. 10 hits he thought to himself. The final rotation finished off the last two. "12 hits...very good" There was blood everywhere. A rib bone had been sent flying and pierced on of the stall doors. He heard vomiting and quiet sobbing coming from it. "Hayate...hayate...please save me". Akuma briefly considered round housing the door in and send it flying into the pitiful creature, but decided he had wasted enough time and energy. As he turned around, small man peeked his head in..."I heard a lot of screaming, are you oh...?"He went silent. He bolted away. Akuma instinctively lept after him. Unable to control his inner monologue, the little man, probably a teacher, said "I've got to warn everybody in the auditoriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii" Akuma had already grabbed the man mid air by the neck, he flipped over and then sent the man flying though a window. Akuma was pretty sure he was saying auditorium. Unfortunately, several security guards saw his demon flip and were running towards him. "I don't have time for this" He thought to himself. He concentrated his hatred into the palms of his hands and unleashed a massive beam of fiery death. Blinded by the light, one of the guards put of his hand to shield his eyes, he was shocked to see it was only a skelleton. His flesh was boiling, but he could not feel it. Looking over, he was repulsed by the sight of a humanoid pile of a of burning flesh and disturbingly white bones. The lidless monstrosity shared the same look of shock and disgust. His attempts to call out resulted only in a cool air passing through a hole in his throat. "I don't have a hole in my throat" he thought to himself. He went black. Akuma was long gone, he had shoryukened through several floors of school building to reach the roof. He saw a large rectangular building. He heard the hustle and bustle of people, the concentration of filth was strong there. He smiled to himself.

Sakura was tapping her foot to the beat. For an all girl quintet they were pretty good. Sakura got the impression they didn't practice that much, but the songs were catchy and the bassist was really pretty. "She looks like a doll" Sakura thought to herself "I wonder if Ryu like girls with long hair" She sighed twisted a finger around one of her short locks. The guitarist stepped up to the microphone; "Everybody! Thank you all so much!We've all had a great time here today, but we only have time for one more song, its called..." "KONGOU KOKURETSU ZAN!!!" Hundreds of massive beams of dark energy erupted from the center of the ceiling and filled the auditorium, piercing people like pin cushions. Sakura had closed her eyes and crouched down into the fetal position, there was smoke, dust, a lot of crashing a screaming. A second later, when the chaos seemed to die down a little bit she opened her eyes. She was covered in debris and filthy. Her clothes were stuck to her and her hair matted down. Blood. She realized most of it wasn't hers. She then realized she was standing under the open sky, The gym had been cracked in two. The devastation of the scene around her was apparent. There were bodies everywhere. Some moving, some not. The air was full of cries and moans, the clattering of scattered chairs and bits of crumbling debris. The stage she was looking at a few seconds ago was dark and running with blood. She saw the bassist she was admiring was lying down on her stomach, her eyes wide open, her mouth was also open, as wide as a basketball and she could see all the way through her. She had been impaled. The drum kit was crushed by several stage lights...the keyboardist was crying frantically, her arms were bloody stumps that ended at the elbow trying to drag herself offstage, the sight of her slipping on her stumps almost amused sakura. RIN! she suddenly realized. She had been right next to her. But now there was nothing...just a shattered discoball. Sakura's head was spinning. A sudden movement snapped her back into reality. It was a hand twitching from under the ball. It went limp. "GWAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOH" she cried and fell to her knees. On the stage she realized the massive, evil presence. A large man, clad in a dark gi was standing there with his back to her. A firey "heaven" symbol shone brightly on his back. "Sakura" He said "Come"
The guitarist, unscathed and oblivious to the carnage around seemed to awake from her daze and began to play a rendition Ken's theme song.
She did not need to be asked twice, she was already running at him top speed, screaming "sho" repeatedly. Akuma laughed and teleported behind her. She skidded on her heels to a full a full stop, waving her arms frantically to keep her balance. "I'll kill you!!!!" she screamed and lept at him , arms bent back, hands clasped, ready to deliver a crushing hammer blow. She quickly realized it was a foolish move. Akuma was already punching her out of the air. She felt his meaty paw solidly deny her airspace has she was winded by the great blow to her gut. She shook off the pain and stood up again, her opponent was no longer in front of her. She looked up, saw him and smiled. She put all of her energy into a gigantic hadoken aimed upward. "hm" akuma grunted as he brushed away the energy 3 times. He awarded himself a thousand points for technical proficiency. Then in an act of physics defying violence he shot downwards like a rocket, foot pointed at Sakura's skull, she managed to back dash at the last possible moment, Akuma missed her head but landed on her foot, a lifetime of violence and hate concentrated into his big toe, landing squarely in the middle of her foot. Sakura heard a sickening crunch, but didn't feel anything, She did notice that once of her shoes was noticeably redder and than the other. She barely noticed she was looking at the sky, she must have been swept. "Where is Ryu?" A voice boomed at her. Hearing his name gave her a new sense of strength and courage filled her. She quickly got up. "I'd never tell you! I hate you! I will defeat you!" She hopped and spun, with her bloodied foot sticking out, sending an arc of crimson droplets flying. But they did not touch anything. Akuma was again airborne "Cheap jerk!" She shouted "I am merely playing with you" he retorted. Two giant fireballs were slowly moving towards her, she could not escape because of the unfair angle of them. She grimaced and braced herself, holding her arms in front of her. She cried out as they hit her, incinerating her arm hair. Her skin smoked and peeled, she screamed. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH" she threw her arms out. Everything stopped for a moment. Her movements were fast and fluid, yet precise and exact, her arms seemed to move in slow motion, leaving behind a faint blue trail behind them...she felt like she could combo anything. "Is this...Ism?" she thought to herself "I can do it! I can win!" She took a step forward, she noticed Akuma seemed to be moving very slowly, but she was like molasses. It was the oddest pose she had ever seen, he was standing on one leg, the other one bent...she noticed he wasn't walking or running at all, just a slow, graceful glide towards her, a deathly presence following him. "Ah" she managed to gasp as 2 powerful hands gripped her. She couldn't describe what happened next. It was like being punched and kicked...but worse. Like, her insides were being poked and prodded and rearranged. Like her heart was at the soles of her feet, then in the middle of her arms and then she couldn't feel it anymore. She felt her spine shatter.
It hurt.
A lot.




The End.

Whats wrong with complicated!!!


I dunno, I still think that it will be able to appeal to a wide audience, despite its new bells and whistles seemingly needing to have some time devoted to its their complexities.



Still, its no marvel, so it should be fine as far as hard stuff is concerned.
 
ADDDOOOONNNN!!! EX Jaguar Tooth!

I'm fine with complicated. Hopefully SSFIV will bring a handful of my friends who thought SFIV was too "Scrub Friendly" back into the fold.

Also really hoping they have an option to take out those stupid shortcut motions. Df, df FP? WTF
 
[quote name='asianxcore']Also really hoping they have an option to take out those stupid shortcut motions. Df, df FP? WTF[/QUOTE]

Don't quote me on this, but I remember reading that the shortcut for DP is now D, DF, D, DF + P. Seriously, don't ask, but I remember reading that it was stated by Ono somewhere. Take this with a grain of salt, but I'm praying it's true.

How about no shortcuts period? Or at least have an option to turn them off?

That "New" motion is still pretty easy to mash out.

They don't make FPS's easier for beginners, why do we have to deal with Shortcut Motions because Joe Six Pack can't Shoryu with ease?

Hey, I'm sure everybody agrees with you, shortcuts are bullshit. I'd like something like you mentioned, shortcuts can be optional for player matches but none for ranked matches. Kind of like easy specials for BlazBlue, that'd be good.
 
Man the new trailer pretty much makes me happy cuz of two things:

1) Cody

2) the music is finally something that will make me want to fight


the only 2 games I've prob ever played that the soundtrack gets my pumped to fight was T5DR and the og GG2
 
So I think I'm going to open up a can of worms here. Blame LostRoad if this blows up :lol: Here's what I posted in the GGT about a dilemma I'm having between purchasing SFIV or Blazblue in GS' b2g1 sale (I'd buy both, but I can't afford it this time around) Any way, here we go:

[quote name='Ahadi']Here's the deal on this now. SFA3 is my favorite SF game so far and that's been my fighter of choice since 2005 (when I discovered it and moved on from SFII). I've been holding off on SFIV for no good reason, then I recently discover Blazblue and I'm completely enthralled with it's art style and how fluid it looks. But I got no idea where I'm gonna go from there. I hope it will just come down to not being able to find one of the two. Then again, Christmas is around the corner and I can throw the one I don't get on my wish list. Maybe Santa will bring me the collectors edition of BB. But what I need to know is what makes BB > SFIV or what makes SFIV > BB.
[/QUOTE]

And the voice of wisdom:
[quote name='LostRoad']True Ahadi. Nether fighter is better than the other. Blazblue flows in line with Guilty Gear being very fast paced and combo heavy. There are a lot of little techs in BB that put people off because it is very easy for new players to just get crushed if they are not willing or able to put the time into the game.

SFIV in itself is a great fighter, and much easier for players to get into. On top of being a name people grew up with it has pretty solid mechanics. It really comes down to what type of fighter you like more. I would say SF is a safer choice if you never played GG or any other fast paced fighter. Though if you want something new, or Turbo II was always your choice of speed, and you like a deeper combat system than BB may be right for you.

You should ask more though in the FGT, that way you can get more well rounded answers on both, other than random dip shits spouting their own personal fandoms.[/QUOTE]

So please help me out!

SSFIV is only a few months away and looks to be a big improvement over the original version. If you can get the Limited Edition of BB with the strategy DVD and the OST CD's, do it--the soundtrack is excellent.
