You get good playing real people, not AI. Real people throw you curve balls way more often than AI and it forces you to get better.

If you're talking to me, I was just bitching about people on XBox Live.

But on the subject of AI, I would like to also state that I'm a little disappointed when Street Fighter has a final boss shades of SNK or--dare I say it--Mortal Kombat. By that, I mean I just got teleportspam/multihityuken/sonicboombsonicboombsonicboomed for about the thirtieth time, and finally decided to just turn the fucking system off and walk the fuck away. Good job making a generic piece of shit spam ass stupid shit piss dick balls fucking boss that makes me stop playing the goddamn game, Capcom, totally disregarding how hard it is to get through Arcade on anything but Easy with Vega. All that work didn't mean shit, I'm not fighting Seth a thirty first fucking time.

God fucking damn.

One of my biggest problems right now is nailing ultra combos with te 360 controller. Would have possibly won a match with Crimson Viper, but she did the EX Seismic blast instead. I can hit it in training, and against a low level CPU all day, but in the heat of competition with a human player, I almost alwsays hit the EX forward, down-forward move instead. Not only do I not hit the ultra, but I waste a super gauge box. Suckage.

Is it any smoother with the arcade stick?
Try my configuration:

Face Buttons:
(X) - Weak Punch
(Y) - Fierce Punch
(A) - Weak Kick
(B) - Roundhouse
Top Buttons:
[LB] - Mid Punch
[RB] - Mid Kick
Triggers:
{LT} - Focus Attack
{RT} - PPP

Now Khuntri may remember that my face buttons are SNK/Vs. fashioned and my Mids stay up top, but SF4 forced me to alter my triggers from the usual PPP/KKK set-up. With the importance of Ultras (life savers in many cases), I had to make a decision to make them more viable during gameplay. My PPP was on the left trigger (during the PS2 days), but I put it on the right trigger for 'instant-kill' access. This means I do my KKK ultras manually with all three kick buttons. RoXer can attest that this isn't a problem for me.

The big draw with my set-up is the left trigger being used for Focus Attacks. For a time I used the top buttons for Focus Attacks, but they're too important to rely on pressing the two top buttons together (not to mention Focus Cancels and such). Being that I no longer need a KKK button/trigger and I rather not conprimise my old face button set-up (I tried, much too used to it), I put Focus Attacks on left trigger.

The first time I fought RoXer he blew me out. We went at it a little while later with me on the above config and my game changed dramatically. Much more give and take now.

Yeah, offline is the way to go. Still, RoXer is good games. And I love that SF4's yellow bars might as well be green bars - very smooth. It lags but so often I wanna kill myself. I imagine a green bar is HD Remix perfect.

Good for you. Did it with Sakura m'self. I'm playing her more than I care to admit, but I won't be adding her to my stable (Cammy would get jealous). RoXer pulled out some Gouken action, he's definitely not over-powered (unless RoXy is holding back).

I got a perfect against Seth with Chun-Li of all people. Nothing against Chun-Li, I'm just a very average or less Chun-Li player. The sweeping technique really works.

Unlocked Gen after the perfect against Seth. I had a quick spin as him in a fight against a CPU opponent and he seems pretty good. I'll have to use him in training first before I get good enough with him to play against others.
Is his name pronounced as "Jen" or is the G prononced the same way it is prononced in the word "Gun" but with an e instead of a u?
