[quote name='hankmecrankme']SCIV isn't bad, if you are super selective in who you play online, and know you can get 5 bars with them. I don't just play randoms, because I've had 2 bar matches from hell that I don't want to play ever again. :bomb:[/quote]

I once played some SC4 on 360 online, and played nothing but 10 laggy yodas in a row.
I swore if I ever found someone in real life who mained with yoda I would make sure that asshole could not reproduce.
 
[quote name='BoneMonkey80']how can i learn how to get better at UMK3?[/QUOTE]check this page out: http://ultimatemk.com/cguide.php There's a general gameplay guide and focused guides for each character (with embedded YouTube videos as visual aids). Not sure how user-friendly it will seem through the eyes of a new player, but the people who post on that site are the most knowledgeable in the world when it comes to Mortal Kombat!


How many people will be allowed in a room/lobby in HD Remix? Two playing and two spectating... or more than that???
 
[quote name='GuardianE']I'm sold. Once I find out when they're being released, it's refresh-o-rama time.[/quote]

Remember! After douching, REFRESH!!!:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:


Played some DOA4 last night with the EX2. I love that game, but the counter system needed to be scaled back to the old system because of the increased speed. The mistakes made with DOA4 really makes me antsy for Team Ninja to fix them when they hopefully make DOA5. Itagaki leaving could be the change the series has needed.
 
hey RR, me + too many tequilas + gears of war = epic fail

but if anyone wants to play tonight hit me up well get some matches.

jim, did those weird guys we were playing with FR you? cause they are actually pretty cool/funny. the one dude loves weed so much.

how much is SFremix gonna be?

E. Honda for life

also if you havent seen the new star trek trailer, it is in fact boner inducing
 
i was also watching people play sf4 on friday. man. people could not deal with a sagat fireball trap. they kept jumping into tiger uppercuts.

made me wanna play ST. then i did.
i think the hardest part about footsies is learning to walk forward.
 
Do you think they'll ship sooner or later? I want a good 360 pad soooo bad. I keep trying arcade sticks and getting fed up with them...too big, too clicky. I can play better with them, but they're not comfortable for me.
 
Actually, looking at the SF2HDR Package, it's not nearly as impressive as I thought it was. I couldn't see any pictures at my workplace, hence my excitement, but now it doesn't seem so grand. It just lacks the exclusivity that I would've expected from a limited to 300 product.

First of all, the comic book is available at all comic shops. It's no different from the retail one that was shipped two months ago or so. The packaging for it is covered in art that was used for the Street Fighter Tribute book or the Udon's Art of Capcom book. AND the Chun Li figure is the same one they've been trying to get rid of for quite some time now, if I remember correctly. The Ryu headband is the same one given away as a pre-order bonus for Street Fighter IV at Gamestop (and if I read correctly, was given out to people at certain conventions). And then there's the magnets... who the hell cares about magnets? Seriously?

That leaves the disc... which I'm sure will not warrant the price tag. I was expecting something much cooler and along the lines of the Mega Man 9 Kit. This package doesn't even come with the game... not that I care that much because by the time it ships I'll have already bought the game on Live/PSN, but still. Having a hard copy of the game is just for awesomeness sake.
 
GuardianE, I'll answer your PMs when I get home, sorry for the delay.

Regarding the HD Remix press pack, it wasn't originally how they wanted to do things, so this is the end result :( The ideas for it were amazing though...

Thanks, MarkMan. Anytime you get a chance. I'm just glad if you'll be able to shed some light on this enigmatic equipment. :D

The press pack makes me sad now. It just seems so slapped together and unlike Capcom. I want to buy it to support the release and because I'm a Capcom fanboy, but I don't think I can. I guess now that's money that I can put towards sticks/pads instead for SFIV.
 
[quote name='MarkMan']GameStop website now has the products available for pre-order. (Note release dates/ship dates are NOT accurate)

PLAYSTATION 3



XBOX 360


[/QUOTE]

So I've not seen anything about the pad ever... can I just assume it's going to be something I am obligated to own like the stick is?
 
[quote name='hankmecrankme']I actually played some T5DR online with one of my PSN friends the other day, and it was probably the best it has been, lag wise. I had some good matches.[/QUOTE]

In the best of lag, it's definitely playable but still a different from an offline experience. It's just that it sometimes seems like the factors that affect lag are random. I can have an excellent connection with someone one match, and the next time around in the same session it'll be lagtastic. Even when my friends in Cali and Seattle were playing DR on a nightly basis, we would just all randomly have good lag nights and bad lag nights. Ah, well, if you guys ever want to play some DR and see me online, just hit me up, but I don't think I'll be hosting any Tekken nights in the near future.
 
Yeah I think that the Tekken nights will fade away since STHD is coming in 2 days, which is what I'll be focusing on till SFIV.

Can't fucking wait for BR though, even if its in a whole year.

Yeah, I definitely agree, it's a different experience having any lag vs. playing somebody sitting next to you. And it does seem random. Hopefully Tekken 6 will have better online, because I'll be disappointed if it's the same laggy shit.
 
Everyone that entered the contest on SDT site, sorry we didn't pick the winners yesterday, they'll be posted later tonight.

6 winners total!
 
foley: we sucked in gears but at least you pissed off some basketball fans ;)

I miss tekken nights... :(

I'll make it come back once more people play fighters with SFIV release... a freind of mine once again glorified SFIV even though he never plays fighters... made me happy.

also he bashed me for being so confident in saying with a straight face that MK vs DC is "Fun but horrible". I said it like it was a fact from God and Science so that shut him up and my other friend who brought it up.
 
I hated that you can't really chat in Tekken... since nobody has a mic.

Goddamnit, I just realized it'll be the same thing with SFII if I get the PS3 version... Sony, you retards. You fuck everything up.

At least the game is probably kewl, tho.

Back to Xenogears... almost done with this playthrough, tho I wanna do the sidequests, since I didn't do those at all last time, and I heard they were actually pretty damn worthwhile. So good.

Also, I should be getting a new TV stand/cabinet for game systems in the next couple of days. Now, that might sound totally lame, because furniture is inherently boring, but it's actually a good thing. I'm excited to have a more legit looking setup.

I should just start sitting in my computer chair for console gaming... this thing is super comfortable. If I get a foot rest, I'm set for life.
 
[quote name='gunm']so y'all are mostly PSN for SFIITHD? :p

MM, what other places are gonna carry the SFIV sticks? Amazon, I hope...![/quote]

Seems like alot of people here are going 360.
 
Kk, thanks guys. I'm prolly going 360, too for now.

And thanks, MM--I found the FightSticks on Amazon, but no Tourney stick so far. I'll keep lookin'...
 
im not a fighting game player but damn for some reason i feel as though i should get the tournament stick even though im never going to make full use of it....*sees price* ok maybe i should just get the standard and a gamepad lol

It wasn't so much that nobody had mics on Tekken nights but rather turning on mics made the game laggier than normal. We used mics for the first couple of weeks of T5DRO, but it made the game unplayable.
 
[quote name='dkreegz515']is it worth waiting for the SFstick... rather than spending 50 on a SCIV stick?[/quote]

yep wait for the SFIV stick
MM says so :cool:
 
dkreegz515, my biased point of view says yes. And my unbiased point of view says yes.

So yeah.

---

I'll contact GameStop in the morning and remind them about the individual designs on the pads. An email was already sent to them yesterday regarding the changes.

Also Amazon has an error in their listing. It lists the PS3 tournament edition stick twice, when one is a picture of the 360 one.

Look forward to Capcom-Unity's post on these tomorrow/Wed. I'll probably do my site preview this weekend.

BTW, just like Amazon says in the description, under product features...

"Very limited quantities available."

lol.
 
so MM is the regular stick perfectly fine for someone like me that isnt much of a fighting gamer? or will all questions be answered tomorrow?

Figures. It'd be nice to have the tourney version--will probably change the order once amazon fixes the listings.
 
Nelo Ice, yea but I would wait and hold your judgment until more info is revealed on em (soon)...

Also, contest winners for the AKSYS Games giveaway have been contacted... Thanks everyone who entered! A good amount of the winners were from CAG! lol!

ic guess i'll wait then cuz the tourney edition is gorgeous :drool: and i would love to get that one but if the standard stick should suffice might opt for that
 
SF2HD!

Another email has been sent out as one of the winners graciously forfeited the prize and asked us to make someone else happy!
 
>_<

I am just about to log off to go to bed due to having to wake up tomorrow at 5am to paint a fake city for someone (ask me later) and I go to check my e-mail to clean up and... apparently I won the forfeited prize >_<

nice! thx MM/SDT

that felt totally random >_
 
Gratz sdtekken winners! People are lining up for BF already? Dayum...

No fighting games for me until I get home. Ah wells...
