Damn, I'm like the CAG Historian up in this bitch.

I wouldn't check it out, but if your curiousity gets the better of you...

Edit: Oh balls, he dropped his website... 1 minute.
Edit 2: http://vanlandw.com/archives/88

I usually saw his name associated with the CAG Photo Album and having a horrendous picture in there that would make your eyes bleed.
And I found a small version of it...

[quote name='linkpwns']Guys, the adapter for my fight stick came before the stick... :/[/QUOTE]

Well, now you can use a classic controller until the stick arrives. That's at least better than a dualshock 3.
 
What I work a semi regular shift now?

SWTOR is down tonight, so that means only one thing:


STARCRAFT TIME!

What's wrong with a DS3? It's not like it's a 360 controller with the unusable d-pad.
Especially for Blazblue. SF3 is a different story, but that's always sucked on a controller unless you go get something with 6 face buttons.

Tribes time?

Yes, I am advocating Tribes over Starcraft at the moment.

Yes, if you are on. then I'll play.


Also starting tomorrow I will have a friend's voucher for SWTOR, good for 7 days. If you play non-stop for those 7 days, you can hit level 50, but not sleeping for 7 days is a tough one.
 
Har. An intriguing offer.

We miiiiiight not want to play Tribes tonight, though. The new patch introduced a bug that doubles the rate of fire on light turrets, which is funny, because there was nothing in the patch notes remotely related to turrets (not even the bug where they did 300 damage to shrikes). As much as a heavy like me would enjoy the buff to defence, the games may prove... unrewarding.
 
[quote name='linkpwns']I don't have one of those :/

A Gamecube controller, maybe?[/QUOTE]

You have a Wii, but no classic controller?

A gamecube controller won't work with the adapter, but it would probably be worse than a DS3 for fighters anyway.

Josh, this is popular on what.cd today.
I thought you'd like it...
I can hear your voice in the overtones.[/QUOTE]

The video gives me a headache, but the song itself is enjoyable, albeit kind of unoriginal.

A DS3 isn't terrible for fighters like the 360 d-pad, but it's still not the best. If I had to use a current gen controller for a fighter (not counting fighting pads), it would be the Classic Controller since it has a great d-pad and is made for 2D games. SNES d-pad still owns all though. (note: I never owned a Saturn)
 
I think it's embarrassing their code and marketing plan was so easily exposed, but they can sell their product however they please. Developers have functioning DLC planned and working well before they actually release it, it's nothing new. Capcom is just less graceful.

Exactly how I felt. But then again, I know that most of my music sounds unoriginal and causes you headaches, so I figured I'd send it to you anyway.

Also, i can skype tonight, until like midnight.

Well it's going to be how long until the Vita version and DLC are released this fall? 6 months, minimum? It's a pretty shitty idea to be honest, not to mention it'll probably mean the release of a Super version that the Vita version will be renamed to, in addition to the inevitable Wii U version.
 
[quote name='panzerfaust']The only problem I can possibly think of is hackers having early access to characters.[/QUOTE]

PC version ... assuming they don't remove the data now.
 
[quote name='hankmecrankme']I rocked ASCII pads on SNES for my fighters. :cool:

This motherfucker right here.

I rocked that thing back in the day.

I loved that controller.
 
[quote name='BlueScrote']Have fighters been more prevalent this gen or am I imagining things?[/QUOTE]

Imagination.

No, but seriously, I think that online play made a huge difference.
 
The rise of XBLA/PSN downloadable games probably does mean more fighters are being played that the past couple of gens. Though a lot of them are ports or HD remixes of old games.

Playable
online play is the greatest thing to happen to fighters in a long time. SFIV definitely helped in giving the genre a kick start again, too.

[quote name='linkpwns']No, but seriously, I think that online play made a huge difference.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, basically.

Moar costumez and pics of DLC charz!

Real talk, if fighters didn't have a rebirth this gen then I probably wouldn't even be playing games now.

Tekken 5 DR, SSF2THDR, SF3S are the main XBL/PSN games, I'd think, at the moment at least. Skullgirls and GGXXAC are coming.

Then you have:
Soul Calibur 4
Soul Calibur 5
Blazblue Calamity Trigger
Blazblue Continuum Shift
Blazblue Continuum Shift Extend
Street Fighter 4
Super Street Fighter 4
Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition
Marvel vs. Capcom 3
Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3
King of Fighters XIII
Mortal Kombat 9
Street Fighter x Tekken

And that Persona fighter is coming.

I think it's retail and I think that Mikey isn't imagining it.

You forgot the best one! MK vs DC.

You also forgot Tekken 6, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, Tekken x Street Fighter, and KoFXII.

fixed

You guys also forgot Arcana Heart 3, VF5, DOA4, and Tatsunoko vs. Capcom.

See the next line, though I may give it a chance if it really is a only $15 download.

No, I didn't forget any of those. :p
A Wii game, a $30 download only niche fighter, a game that had no online on PS3, and a franchise that I'm not a fan of.

Partially. I forgot Tekken 6 and TTT2. TxSF not so much, since nothing's really been seen on it... and KoFXII was trash in my opinion.
 
Returned my SFxT preorder at Best Buy no problem. 45 dollar NewEgg copy will be here tomorrow.

Picking it up at midnight though so I can play it tonight. Even slept to prepare myself! Super excited.

I now have a $54 dollar BB gift card though and I never shop there. Thinking about just picking up Operation Raccoon City with it.

You getting it on 360, whoknows? If you are and are interested in doing the campaign together, I'll probably pick it up.
