Are you one of them, then? :mad: Can't stand those fucks.
|
I mean, let's be serious: it takes pretty good timing to keep someone down once you have them in that loop, but fucking hell does it makes the game a lot less fun.
|
I hear rumors that Ibuki might be included... gonna look into it.
|
Makoto, Ibuki, and Dudley is the rumor.
|
Pretty good set, if it's true. And while I've got no beef with Ibuki going in, I believe I've already stated which character's I'd like to see make the cut.

Likely Ibuki. |

Dudley FTW!!

I toyed with Ibuki in 3rd Strike years ago. Might give it another go this time in this engine. Makoto should be interesting with the Saving Attack system.

Fucking hate Cody so much.
|
I'd have Karin over Cody easily.
|
Like I said, he was supposed to be Joe from SF1, but they were like let's make him Cody. Then we got Final Fight Streetwise. :mad:
|
You know, Cody's not so bad...

I never knew anyone who played him seriously.

But it led to Final Fight Streetwise. It was so not worth destroying that franchise for Cody in Alpha 3.

I never played FF Streetwise. I mean... could it be worse than the old game? Really?

It was good. I mean it wasn't bad anyway. My theory is either:
A) It deviated too far from the more light hearted, colorful original. or B) It was American. Personally, I enjoyed the game. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kpM3-02blBs&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kpM3-02blBs&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> |
There is nothing more hilarious than busting out an ultra on someone who doesn't know they exist. Especialy when there are several other people who don't know they exist, watching it.
|
Beating on casuals, Fignuts? You're mean.
|
I am a casual.
|
Casuals don't do ultras, you're a fighter.
|
They tell you how do them in the manual. It is not some trade secret known to hardcore gamers.
|
Being a 'core gamer has little to do with skill, it's all about FIGHTING SPIRIT.
|
Street Fighter Alpha 2 is dropping on Wii's XBLA equivalent, WiiWare.
I demand a port of SFA Anthology for XBLA in retaliation. |
It's going to end up being the SNES version of the game since Virtual Console doesn't contain any Saturn or PS1 versions of games.
|
Oh. Oh.
Eww... I had the SNES version but... Eww... You think they'd fit the arcade version in there at least. Also, we know it wouldn't be Alpha 2 Gold. That's almost a slap in the face for Wii owners (they do have CvT though). |
Quote:
Well if it is coming to WiiWare, then it will not be a port. WiiWare is for original games and Virtual Console is for the roms. |
Perhaps the source got it wrong.

Virtual Console

Eww.

Some new screens showing new stages. I can't find the actual screens so this short video will have to do.

Might we see Elena?? Don't know anyone else who has a stage in Africa..
|
That's what I was thinking.
|
Dhalsim seems to have his own stage so maybe character specific stages are back, at least for a few characters so Elena could be there. I've never played as her so it's as good as a brand new character to me if she is in.
|
I have a feeling we're getting Evil Ryu
|
I don't think we will unless they do DLC, which I'm pretty sure I heard they weren't.
The character select screen was shown on a Famistu stream showing off the game and there aren't spots for Evil Ryu. http://i46.tinypic.com/2vkiaeo.jpg http://i47.tinypic.com/snmb1j.jpg The slot under Sakura on the far right is probably another new character, Hakan. The other 3 slots are probably for the SF3 characters which are rumoured to be Dudley, Ibuki and Makoto. |

10 minute gameplay footage from Famitsu. It's pretty low quality.

Is that Platinum Games' Kamiya playing with them?
|
Last Four:
Dudley (3rdS) Ibuki (3rdS) Makoto (3rdS) Hakan (New) |
Quote:
|
They are all on the character list that leaked a while ago. The list leaked before the game was announced and listed T.Hawk, Dee Jay, Adon, Cody, Guy and even Juri. The only others on the list where Hakan, Dudley, Ibuki and Makoto. The same list mentioned bonus stages, lobbies & new ultras which are in to so it's pretty much a sure thing.
The new character select screen has just enough spaces for the final four, as you can see in my post above. |
Quote:
Quote:
At the very least Ibuki seems likely with that dagger showing up in those pics, there's only so much required for inductive reasoning. The last four names will certainly be the characters. |
This game will own lives then
|
This will open up some interesting match-ups. It's a nice big character list now, online matches will be interesting. Now we need to know about the tweeks and rebalances.
|
Edit: The story has vanished now so it could be it was found to be a lie afterall. Then again, the original list of leaked characters vanished to and that's been accurate so far.
Edit No.2 : Yeah, this turned out to be fake. Some interesting (and big) news has come up. It's not 100% confirmed as being true but here it is anyway Quote:

I fought more Kens (and eventually Sagats) than Ryu online, but I see what you're saying. But I imagine trends like that will stop once the game is rebalanced and tweaked. There will always be 'favorites' though, no doubt about it.
|
I'd imagin we'll see Juri a lot online for the first week or 2. I see mostly Ryu online these days but it doesn't really bother me. It bothers me when people employ certain tactics online that make the fight completely unfair. Dhalsim users constantly jumping backwards and doing his fierce punch or any match in general where the player employs one move or tactic they know Zangief is completely helpless against rather than just facing me head on. It's only really Dhalsim players, though. I know you have to keep your distance from Zangief but theres a limit.
I "main" Zangief and I feel I've gotten much better with him since our SF4 tournement but I still have a real hard time against Cammy. Shes my biggest weakness by far. If I block a Spiral Arrow, I get a Cannon Spike to the face. She seems to find a way around/out of any move I pull off. I just can't figure her out. Anyway, look what someone found on the Capcom Japan site: SPOILER: show Edit: someone translated the blog. Those are stages that didn't make it in. Still, maybe DLC eventually? |
New, page stretching, scan:
SPOILER: show Some cool things there. new alternate costumes, new utras. All looking very cool. You can see the completed character select screen in the lower left but it's too small to make out who is on it but that should mean the final character reveal is coming up. Edit: New info. It's a fairly long article to copy/paste so I'll just link to it here. It basically tells us how the new Ultras will work. We select one of the two available Ultras before the match with the idea being it will change the way the player decides to play that match. It also tells us how Juri plays: Quote:

The embed code seems to have messed up. Can someone fix it for me?
|
Cool.
Gunna Goozex mine this weekend so no more Street Fighter for me until this comes out. |
Bison gear for Cammy?!?
|
Out of the new costumes we've seen so far I like Balrogs and Zangiefs the most. Zangiefs new Ultra looks awesome, espeacially the close up during the headlock, and should come in useful when I'm playing against people that like to constantly jump to stop me grabbing them.

I just got through watching the Street Fighter movie over at Screwattack.com and they added their own commentery over it. I've not seen the movie since I was a kid.
Watching it now, I've just noticed that a few small details in the movie seem to have ended up in SFIV. A character workng for Bison looks a little like Rufus. He's a big fat guy with the ponytail, the handlebar moustache and the costume is similair but darker. Bisons lair has a floating platform that looks a little like the reactor in Seths lab along with the floor in Bisons lair having the same pattern as Seths lab floor and in the movie, Blanka is in an incubation unit that is later raised up from Bisons floor. In Seths lab there are similair looking incubation units that seem to have risen from the floor with sillouettes in them. Maybe all coincidences or maybe little nods to the Street Fighter movie. |
Meh. Will wait for the next edition.

I just saw the English version. Looks very cool. I read just now on GameFAQS that there will be an SSIV anime movie but it's a 360 Japan only thing. I hope not.
Looking around online, I can't find it in English but it's downloadable in English on the 360. I was hoping it wouldn't get released so close to RDR. I better start saving up. |

Nice.

I wish they'd hurry up and announce the rest of the roster officially. There is a tournement in Japan at the start of April and it'll have all the characters available to use so it seems we'll get the characters revealed before April anyway. That still means we could be waiting until March for the official announcement, though. Someone did point out that new characters tend to be revealed on the 28th of each month so maybe we'll get something tomorrow. I doubt it. Probably the end of March.

US box art is horrible when compared to the Japan box art :

Famitsu show screens of the next 3 character revealed. If they are showing them off, I'm guessing the next official reveal trailer could maybe be here on Friday, so you could just wait until then if you want a reveal with more punch than a few screen shots:
SPOILER: show |
Cool.
|
I know this isn't really the thread for it but I bought DOA4 a few days ago and, after Street Fighter IV, it takes a bit of getting used to. The AI is pretty relentless most of the time. Espeacially the last fight.
I used to be really good at DOA2 when I was younger but with DOA4, I'm feeling like an amatuer again. I can't even pull off any move more complex than *direction and punch/kick* because the AI doesn't stop moving at all. It's constantly punch or kicking. Reversing isn't as simple as I remember it being in DOA2, either. I don't care much for the online or lack of English VA, either. Anyone else go through this when they got DOA4 or am I just bad at 3D fighters? Still, it's a good game but I prefer SFIV. |
Def harder than DOA2. Hell, I remember more than a few occasions where a bunch of us would be completely shit-faced and still pull off the most amazing combos and reversals. Only people that were any trouble were Leon/Bayman (good god, the counters that just kept chaining :'() and Tengu. DOA4 is a right bitch tho. AI can be relentless, especially when dealing with the ninja characters.
