Tonight is the night - YOU DOWN FOR SFII?

[quote name='Roufuss']How many people want to bet that Capcom will later on release Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo on XBLA for another 800 points?[/QUOTE]

My guess is it won't since Greg is a little picky about releases. I know he told Midway (specifically Boon) to not bother with an MK2 release and stick to either MK3 or UMK3.

That's bullshit then... pisses me off that Capcom didn't just go for Super to begin with.

I'd also rather have MK 2 then 3... I say just release both of them.
 
Aren't they releasing "Ultra" MK3, which is essentially Ultimate MK3 anyway? Why do companies rebrand games for XBLA, when there seems to be little differing it from the decade-old property it is?

If they could have only picked one MK game, they should have gone all out and given us MK Trilogy, but I guess that would be too big for the XBLA.
 
I gotta try the demo first, but I can't see not eventually getting the full game.
And speaking of Metallica, this is a funny recent quote from Kirk Hammett:

What was the last concert he saw? "Must've been our own show on YouTube. I was watching our Moscow show from 1991 and thinking, 'Damn, we were good that night. What happened?'"
 
so can we get an official list of who is going to be on tonight so I can add you to my friends list? I will be on tonight for sure. probably around 11:30PM PST
 
I'm kinda tempted to buy it but I suck at fighters. I don't know how much fun I'll have when my ass is being handed to me over and over again.
 
If I had 800 points and a Gold account, I'd be down for it

EDIT: This may be a dumb question, but I've always wondered. You have to buy points in blocks right? So you can just buy the game and have the appropriate amount for the points be charged to a credit card directly, right?

Damn, that's fucking retarded.

MK2 > UMK3

I don't see why they can't release both. I guess they're intent on making xbla subpar.

I may be wrong here, but I'm almost positive that when they showed "Ultra" MK3 at E3, it was an error. I've heard MS executives since then call it "Ultimate." I believe calling it "Ultra" was just a careless error on MS' part, but we'll see.

[quote name='Roufuss']If they could have only picked one MK game, they should have gone all out and given us MK Trilogy[/quote]
Absolutely agreed. That would kick 10 kinds of ass. What would REALLY be great is if they included MK Trilogy but put a mode in there to turn the run button and dial-a-combos off...since every character/background from MK 2 is in there (along with a few from 1, including Goro, original Raiden & original Kano), you could essentially have any MK match you want.

I'm assuming since MK Trilogy was a home console release maybe they didn't consider it, which is a shame (especially since they are obviously considering some home console tiles, ie Sonic).

but I guess that would be too big for the XBLA.
Click to expand...
I doubt it...Ultimate MK3 can't be that much different. The only difference between UMK3 and MKT are a few characters/levels/music tracks.
 
[quote name='rabbitt']So when's the SFII tournament?[/QUOTE]

I may set one up to hold us over until we get more Uno decks, depending on how well SFII turns out.

Alright, cool. Are more Uno decks on the way?
 
[quote name='rabbitt']Alright, cool. Are more Uno decks on the way?[/QUOTE]
No idea, I've gotta think they'll bring at least one more out when the camera hits, since they'll want to get as much attention for their card games as possible.
 
yes there are more uno decks on the way, someone from the live arcade was talking about that a few weeks back on major nelson.
 
Whoever hasn't added me, please do. I'll be on tonigt with this baby, but can probably play for only a bit since I live on the east coast.

I'm looking forward to a pounding :)
 
[quote name='shipwreck']You are the bane of my XBLA friends scoreboard. I will defend the games that I can actually beat your score on. :lol:[/quote]

Last I checked, Galaga wasn't one of those. :cool:
 
I have 460 points on my account right now if it's less than that i'll buy it otherwise i'm going to pass. Thanks to me losing my wallet a couple weeks back I no longer have current CC info tied to my Live account which is good because it'll stop all impulse buys. I'm gonna keep it like that and buy point cards when I want something. :D

[quote name='Synergy']I stink, but I'm down. Feel free to hit me up if anyone wants to play.[/QUOTE]
I am with you I haven't played many fighters since I played SFII all the time in Middle School/ High School. I will be very rusty but I hope it all comes back.
 
[quote name='CheapyD']I will be there as soon as it's available.
Rumor has it the CheapyD room is gonna be a hot ticket![/quote]

You haven't met have my demands and a couple other sites have gone above and beyond what I asked for, but I mean, I want to play on Team CAG but your cheapness is getting out of hand and you're letting me slip away.
 
I wasn't going to put much thought into buying this, but I've got plenty of points because of $15 1600 point cards and I'm starting to consider it. I'll see how much I like the trial.

I tried to add you cheapy but you got too many friends... being a little too friendly are we now?
 
I think I'm going to pass on this.

I love 2-D fighters. Problem is I already have SF II: Hyper Fighting for my PS2. I also recently bought a custom arcade stick. Definitely prefer that over the standard 360 controller.
