[quote name='JEKKI']yeay Im sorry that u suck at games. Im sure the X series ranks rite up there with your scrub ass sponge bob collection[/QUOTE]

Ooooh, I might actually take offense to that if it were someone who had a good taste in games telling me that. :cool:

When did this become about sucking anyway? I'm just telling you you're wrong. :lol:

[quote name='LostRoad']Jekki is mad.[/QUOTE]

Apparently, god damn, I was just teasing him too. :rofl:
 
u're really trying to dispute me on a game I give a dick about? The zero series excels in stage design and the ability of your character to make perfect play throughs each stage given adequate skill level of the character. The game is considered hard by most casual players (which in and of itself is a selling point without going deeper into it), but a more insightful player will figure out the stage layout and figure out how to make best use of your character to succeed the stage. Ultimately it rewards you for clearing within a timely manner with minimal damage taken, because the game was designed to allow such to happen. Granted yes there are some stages that make u do things like rescue hostages, hit switches, collect things that definitely take away from the action, but they are still layed out in a way that feels like it's the stage itself you are battling.

The X series is fun... for the first 4 games. They were nothing more than reskinned megaman with some new abilities and backtracking. The fun lies in the reward you get by powering up your armors and feeling like an overall badass as opposed to Zero series where the reward is you yourself are the badass for figuring out how to play the game. That said the game is much more accessible, whereas in Zero accessibility comes at a price/consequence via the elf system. Come X4, the game was fresh. X5, dont act like u fukkyn remember this game coz aint nobody remember X5. X6 was garbage, one of the worst designed games I ever played. After that I guess the series went to a shyt direction and I stopped caring.

the zero series is a great maturation of the megaman groundwork similar to how MM9 took the years of experience and crafted something spectacular. And as I said, X series does have the accessibility factor to it, but any fan of MM knows that's not why you play a megaman game, therefore truly saying X is better than zero is an invalid argument unless you completely remove X series as definitive megaman similar to how Legends did and treat the argument as lemons vs oranges. If left field is really what you look for in a MM game then go play Battle Network too

Damn Jekki, my comment wasn't meant to be taken seriously. I love the Zero series too but not as much as the X series. Up to X4 anyway, the rest after that doesn't exist. Besides, we already had Zero from Megaman Zero in SVC Chaos, give Zero from the X series a chance too in a fighter.

I would of also accepted "No u" as a retort.

Alot of these are going to get the wallpaper treatment once I log back onto my laptop.

Too fucking tame. Replace all the asians with latinos and I see this every day since I ride the public trans 6 days a week. Let's just say alot of drunk assholes are who I get the pleasure to ride with.


OT I'll just straight up say I suck at mega man games, thus I can't enjoy them. On the other hand I loved Mega Man Legends and am still dying to play MMLII and TronnB.
 
Started casually playing HD Remix again. Dropped Boxer for the time-being to try and level up my DeeJay and Ryu skills. I went 9 and 4 today in Ranked Match (lost the last 2 matches I played to the same decent Sagat, but I really should've won at least one of these matches.)

If anyone wants to get in some games on X360, let me know.

PS: 24 on Friday.... woot woot.

Ridiculously hilarious and unnecessary? Yes
 
Was that Itagaki cross-dressing in pink at the beginning of the video?

I'm down for some HD Remix when I'm around. I probably need to work on a few characters as it is. My Claw and Sim need work.

Length – 1:00:42. (Warning: Language may be inappropriate for minors.)

Credits – Mark Julio, Ace Roa, Harry Chang, Nathan Aguilera, Gerald Orofino, Neil Aguilera, Faye Mata & SDT

Does anyone know if the PS3 version of Tekken is going to have an optional install like Soul Calibur and Street Fighter had before it?
 
MM that was pretty damn good to be honest. From someone who isn't big into Tekken more than a casual stand point it kept me interested though out the whole show. A big plus for me at least was that there weren't pauses though out it, everyone seemed to know what they wanted to say. It bugs the shit out of me when I have listened to a few other fighter pod casts ( gootecks) and " um " comes before and after every sentence.

I liked that you went into news for other fighters as well. I know its a Tekken podcast but I think that is something that should be kept in, nothing to in depth but just a little heads up on what is going on.

Something I didn't like, the cock tease about the third new toon in BB . I have to admit my heart got all fluttier for a second. Evil bastards .

Two quick questions also:

1. Will the xconverter work with the nuby stick? Wouldn't see why it wouldn't but thought I would ask.

2. Why are there more top plays in Tekken on pads like you said. I haven't heard or seen pads on par or peffered since fighters on the saturn( Waku Waku 7 an d Astra Super Stars namly) ?

Good shit over all, I would check out the next one.
 
I'm not gonna lie, I say "um" a lot and have my mannerisms, I just wanna provide content. I'm glad you liked it.

As for the Xconverter360, I tested it with both versions of the SFA stick, works fine.

A lot of top players on pad because arcade sticks were harder to find back when TEKKEN was flourishing on console tournaments. It's actually more sticks now from what I've seen. There's a good mix though, especially with a lot of top players (most of them are old school)....
 
It doesn't sound like Tekken 6 would be something I'd enjoy. You just talked about the competitive portion of Tekken, and you didn't really calm my concerns about it being friendly to a casual fighting game fan such as myself (Easy as hell difficulty, please; MvC2's easy isn't easy)

Also, the load times question was vaguely answered. I was asking about length, because it seemed like on Giant Bomb's quick look of it (PS3 version), load times were around a minute or two (I got bored and switched to something else just waiting).

Also, it wasn't answered: Tournament Edition Stick or Tekken 6 stick. Which one should I get?

It was a fairly entertaining podcast, although I now have to urge to get a "Pad Warrior" signature picture from somewhere.
 
Get a TE.


The load times weren't noticeable on both the EVO and PAX builds, although I'm fairly sure they were installed. There's still a bit of a wait but its nothing worse than what is in the arcade.

Tekken owes its popularity to its accessibility. Like most 3D fighters, u can do simple combos with jus three buttons. From there you learn to launch, you learn to juggle, realize how easy it is, then start to have fun.

depth is there for the ppl who look for it and commit their time to the game which is similar to any well made fighting game. But on the surface the game is still a good time and since so many new ppl will be coming into the game you will all get the chance to learn together.

contrast that with the reason MVC2 isnt easy... coz that game has been out forever and ppl have been good at it for so many years. The way the game was played when it first came out is nothing like how it's played now.
 
King if you dont already have a TE why not just pick up the T6 bundle. The stick is rumored not to be junk and you get T6 plus the other goodies. You can always upgrade to a TE later down the road if you feel the T6 stick isn't good enough for you.

There will always be a scene for any fighter for casual players so I wouldnt worry about that, but Tekken is nothing like MvC2. Tekken is like chess as MvC2 is like a dirty boxing match.
 
@KingBroly: Tekken 6 isn't worth it if you aren't hardcore into the series. Most Tekken games aren't that friendly for casual fighters due to their juggle-focused gameplay or terrible bosses(T5).

The only one that actually was pretty easy to pick up and play was Tekken Tag Tournament on the PS2. It's the only game in the series I really like, and by "like", I mean "in my top 5 fighting games ever". Aside from TTT, I really don't like the series that much.

I think Dead or Alive might be more up your alley, KB. It's the Checkers of 3-D fighting games, it's as complicated as you want it to be. Just go pick up DOA3 & DOA: Ultimate for the Xbox, along with TTT on the PS2 and don't look back until T6 is in the bargain bin for $20.

The "Chess" comparison is WAY off here. That comparison should really be used for Virtua Fighter when talking about 3-D fighting games. In VF, when you fight, you actually think like a fighter and not like a combo-programmed juggler. You need to know what move will work in the situation you're in.

"If a can bait him over towards the edge a little more and nail a 'rana, he'll get a ring-out."

Playing VF successfully without doing ultra-complicated, hours-of-practice-required combos is surprisingly manageable. Don't get me wrong, combos are a part of all fighting games, but Tekken is the only one where if you aren't juggling, you're playing the game wrong. I'm not sure what kind of board game Tekken is, really.:lol::lol::lol:
 
What, really!?

Tekken Tag an easy game to pick up and play?

100% disagree.

TEKKEN 5 and TEKKEN 6 are both way easier to get into/enjoy.

You kidding right? I would really like to know what martial art you have been training under to give you the " think like a fighter " idea. VF5 is very throw happy. Tons of the moves are all about tossing an opponent up in the air and doing some dumb shit, or pokes while they are on the ground.
( Because fighters like to just stand around so you can do your move right? :roll: )

How are you going to make a ring out comparison as well, both have it both use it. Its part of a 3d fighter, and both Tekken and who ever bothers to play VF5 will use it. Knowing what move will work in any fighting game is valid, do you really think you can button mash in Tekken and get far?


I can understand wanting to sport a fighter you like, but you need much better points, especially when comparing the ranking 3d fighter to something that was meh at best.
 
Yeah TTT is hard as fuck compared to T5. I kinda think so becuase there are more limitations than freedoms.

@suko, distgfx, and rodimus: there's a statewide tourney happening in i think june of next year in orlando... I know urai is there so might be a cool time to compete and meet up.

For some reason, TTT has always seemed more accessible/easier than the other Tekkens. I can't say anything about T6, but when it comes to T5, only one word comes to mind...

Jinpachi.

1. I'm saying that you think about your position after a move and where you are in the environment. You don't think in the "[],X,X,^O, X+[]" kind of way.

2. What's the difference between a throw in VF leading into that verses a punch or kick in Tekken?

3. I may be mistaken, but I don't remember ever losing in Tekken via a ring-out. New for T6?

4. Nope. I know I can't.

5. You're calling VF5 "meh at best" and yet are telling me that I need better points?
 
MarkMan I just finished listening to the SDTekken podcast. Good stuff! I've been waiting two years to play Tekken 6, and I am happy to know its coming in less than two weeks. I am tired of waiting though. :hot: Also Tekken Tag is harder than Tekken 5 and 5 DR for less moves and slightly different response from the controls. Great game though.

[/QUOTE]

That's where we see things a little different.

No one cares/should care about Jinpachi. I'm speaking from a purely competitive standpoint.

BTW, Jinpachi is not hard at all. If you know what you're doing, he shouldn't be able to touch you. He's free for most knowledgeable ppl on any difficulty.
