[quote name='Rodimus']I got DBZ: Infinite Worlds coming in from Goozex. Anyone play this? Is it as bad as the reviews say? I enjoyed Budokai 3 so I thought I might like this too.[/quote]Have you given the DBZ:Tenkaichi(?) series a try? DBZ:BT2 is better than any of the Budokai games.:cool:

[quote name='BustaUppa']Man I still can't comprehend how anyone could use an analog stick for fighting games. Much respect for those who do!!![/quote]I played most of my 20+ hour, 100% completion, 1,100+ win Virtua Fighter 5 Quest mode run with the 360 pad's control stick. It really isn't too bad if if you're a Wolf Hawkfield player(like me) because a good number of his better moves are variations of circular rotations.

I wish there was a stronger way to say "No."
 
[quote name='distgfx']I wish there was a stronger way to say "No."[/quote]
Perhaps I should have worded that differently. The Tenkaichi series games are the better Dragon Ball Z games, not the better overall fighting games...if that makes any sense. DBZ:BT2 captured the DBZ way of fighting way better than the Budokai games.

Ah, ok, that makes more sense then.

I'll agree with this. However, it'll take you a while to grasp the controls for Tenkaichi. Once you do though, it's pretty good for a DBZ game.

Yes I did. I owned DBZ:BT2 at one point & rented #3. Not that it's a bad game but just not my thing. I guess I perfer a more traditional approch to fighting games. Tenkaichi just didn't feel like a fighter, more like a 1 vs 1 action game. But I will say that the Tenkaichi series more acuratly depicts a DBZ fight.

Budokai vs Tenkaichi is like Skaters vs Rollerbladers.
 
[quote name='distgfx']Ah, ok, that makes more sense then.[/quote]
Yeah, both are solid, but Tenkaichi's gameplay captured the soul of DBZ better.
[quote name='Mr. Beef']No, you were right the first time, BlueSwim.[/quote]
I must admit that I had more fun with Tenkaichi 2 on the Wii than any other DBZ game. I played it until 2 in the morning one time!:lol::lol::lol:
 
^ It's funny you mention GT. I sold my copy for $150 around when DBZ was hot. At the store I used to work at we sold them. Of course I played them all and knew how bad they were. I would tell people how bad these games were and they'd still shovel out $40 for the converter & $60 for a game. Some would by all 3.
 
[quote name='BlueSwim']Was Dragon Ball GT any worse than DBZ: Ultimate Battle 22? Jesus..... Jesus, that game was awful.[/QUOTE]

Both were fucking terrible.

Legends was the best out of the 3.

Psst... Beef... Budokai
NOT tenkaichi
3 and IW rock your world.

[quote name='asianxcore']GG's to Beef. Glad to see your Rufus/Vega are insane as ever. Beatdown!

My Abel/Seth get sloppy randomly. It's annoying :)[/QUOTE]

GGs to you as well, AxC. I kept trying to figure out a way out of that seemingly unstoppable block string, and then I found out that I could EX Messiah before the grab. Very nice.

And Seth...oh, that Seth! My poor Rufus barely stands a chance!

For Abel's Rekka, you can usually FA (or Shoryu if you are playing a Shoto) after the first blocked hit too. Just be careful that whoever you are playing against doesn't Tornado Throw after the first blocked hit.

Such an uphill battle for Abel against Rufus. Mostly because the lack of a reliable AA. Once the triangle jump/dive kick mix-ups start it gets insane. Either you LK Marseilles Roll on Wake-Up to hopefully get out of there or you block and hope you won't eat a tick throw. EX Marseilles Roll gets you out of there, but it's a waste of meter depending on the situation.

It made me continuously shake my head how lame EX Messiah Kick is. Not because it's actually lame, but because of the invincibility frames on start-up. You either get yourself out of trouble or make someone eat it :)
 
I'll keep that in mind about the Rekka. I need all the practice time I can get. This week is gonna be pretty busy for me, what with my earning my free plane trip and all.

There's gonna be a tournament at one of the Gamestops in Serramonte around the last week of the month. SFIV, Brawl, and even Pokemon. The weird thing is that it's free entry for all of them, and they're handing out gift cards as prizes. I'm gonna enter so I can gauge my progress in SFIV, and find out what I need to work on.

Hopefully my stick comes in by then...

If you have ex messiah and you're getting rock paper scissored by ken in tatsu games, just bust out t hat kick and you basically either beat whatever he's doing because it has so much invincibility or get away and be safe. So annoying.

Always something to look forward to right? :)

At no point when I played HeavyD or Beef's Rufus did I question why he's top tier. Hitting his Ultra from pretty much anything is one of my many things that make me shake my head with him.

Also all this KOF and Blazblue artwork flying everywhere reminds me that I have to go pre-order both for PS3.
 
Man, I just got my first disconnect.

I was on the second round of an ass whupping I was putting on a Blanka.

I had him in the throw animation about to finish him off and my power goes out for like 30 seconds.

I got the email from amazon as soon as it went up for presale.


Damn them! Knowing to capitalize on my hispanic blood, which happens to be on fire because KOF is on preorder!
 
omg FGT off topic rant time!

my concentration is now crap... I cant focus on my work or anything else coz a lady freakin called jus to yell at me and make me feel like caca, trying to blame me for her problems and not letting me talk or explain anything.

:cry:

maaaaan and like I was kinda happy this week coz I felt like I had all my shyt straight and could be productive on all my ends, but life always has to find a way to fukk u over and force u to take a break... now the only thing I look forward to today is nap time.

u jus dont kno...
 
So what have you guys been hearing about BlazBlue? I love Guilty Gear, more than most other fighters. I'm sure the game is going to be great, but I just wanted to see if anyone has heard anything particularly good about the game.
 
Anyone here about Sengoku Basara X coming stateside? I'd forgotten about it until googling for Hokuto No Ken emulation
which runs like ass on my system, stupid old ass cpu
jobs. Wonder why BlazBlue is coming so quck, when SBX isn't announced (that I know of). Not that I'm complaining.

On another note, my TE stick shipped and will be here tomorrow! WOOT!
 
Suckiness for me, my good ole' goldmine has a couple TE's in but it's around the time where I have zero dinero :(

They still got the SE's and Fightpads, so hopefully I can cough up enough moola in time to snatch one.
