I totally wanted to play you last night. I was with Khuntri when he invited you. Too bad about the connection, though. Maybe next time.

I will send the word out for when I am ready to punch some jeans in. Right now, 90% of my game time is going to Smackdown and it's only gonna get worse because I'm getting Dragon Age today.

I just got it yesterday. No story arcade mode?
And everyone's unlocked from the beginning? |

Story arcade is in scenario campaign. Once you complete a couple stages, the arena is unlocked, which is story arcade mode. Trick is, you can only play as characters you beat in scenario mode.
Fyi, endings are also unlocked on a time release just through playtime. Don't even have to deal with that stupid demon chicken to see them. |

Working on Devil Jin theories in my head. I think I've been too 'soft' with him, let people breathe too much. Had some matches with my (very dangerous) brother and got some wins with a more aggressive DJ. Gonna see where that goes.

Looking back at my losses when I last played online, I'm infuriated by the lag. It's those matches you just KNOW you'd win if you had better response. Currently unimpressed with the comp overall.

My bro got his ass handed to him by the best Lei player I ever seen. He knew kung fu.
Anyway, the patch really smoothed things out a bit and gameplay online is much better. Also, JUGGLES RULE. Fuck you, .44, if you're still reading. It's still a lame system you need to win. ANYWAY... Who still plays? Betting you guys moved on. |

Really? It's my favorite Tekken easy, all the characters seem fully realized in this one.

Nah, V's got a bit of a point. It doesn't wow me as much as Tekken 3 or Tekken 5 did when they first dropped. Plus little or no North American arcade release meant that I didn't get to do the usual whet my appetite for console release/talk about Tekken endlessly. Seemed like there was no hype for this. I dunno.
I really do like it, but between Tekken 5 and Dark Resurrection, it's like this is an ok 3rd best in the series. |

Well, tagging in fighting games was new then. Not just that, but it had slightly better graphics than Tekken 3 and it was like "whoa, this will actually play on the PS2? AWESOEM!!!!"

My biggest issues with the game barely have anything to do with the game.
1) The XB controller just isn't for fighting games. Playing Tekken with the controller stick is annoying and the pad is an embarrassment in Yank design. Surely we could do better. I legit came close to tears trying to play Blazblue with that fucking pad. The kind of tears that well up when you play a cheap-ass boss in a single player game? You know what I'm talking about. The tears that well when something's not fair and there's nothing you can do about it. ...Yeah, pad sucks. 2) Me and the guys don't get together for sessions like we used to. I used to brawl with 6 guys at a time for fighting game sessions. Now we cap at four or less. It's fucking sad and it's hurting my enjoyment. 3) The liberal juggle system is fucking gay. Ironically, however, I've come to enjoy the Bound system. |

If good sticks didn't have ridiculous price tags, I'm sure he would.

Arcade sticks never worked for me. The only game I'd happily use an arcade stick with is Soulcalibur. Pfft, I can play Soulcalibur on a fuckin DSi if I could.
And now I wanna play Soulcalibur 4. |

Yeah I was skeptical at first but they're extremely accurate, even more so than pads. They're far more superior. It just takes getting use to it.

If I can do shadow steps I'd start to be happy.

Dude shadow steps are really easy on sticks. Smooth like butter. I just have an issue with speed and timing since I'm so use to the pad.

I used to silent step every other move with Devil Jin, I made a fucking metagame out of it. But I don't do it at all now.

Had a single player Tekken marathon yesterday. Here's some thoughts:
- Campaign isn't nearly as bad as what everyone says. I made 9mil$ in 3 hours playtime to play barbie with my fighters. I can confirm that is no 2plyr mode. I guess the duel lifebars was an unintended swerve. ![]() - My DJ, Lei, and Christie are improved. I make transitions faster with Lei and Christie especially, and DJ will play closer to his beastly status in Tekken 5. He seems to work well with the pad (he needs shadow step). - Kinda feel bad for playing a game for 4 hours knowing I won't be able to transfer saves. |

Well, I hate the Virtua Fighter series for the most part (floaty jumping, crazy input system, so much wasted potential...), especially 4. I actually have VF5 (gotta love them bargain bins), but have yet to actually play it due to having 3245872585 more awesome games. Street Fighter is a different animal. I love both, but they are not the same to me at all. In terms of quality, SF 4 is a 9/10 and Tekken 6 is an 8/10. |
