Its impossible. I cant even beat the game on easy. I need a JOYSTICK.GiveMeSomething

I beat the game on the hardest setting with a Dual Shock 3.

I had 30 ranked wins in A ROW with the Dual Shock 3.

I have played 186 matches, with a 89% victory rating with a dual shock 3.

I would be able to do these things with a 360 Dpad, or Analog stick.

I have Beat the game with every character, and have 50% of the achievements with a Dualshock 3.

I just won a GameCrazy Tourney with 34 players vs. Me, and no arcade stick.

Arcade sticks are better, but as you can see, certain Dpads ROCK!

well... i can beat it on medium... but its sooo damn difficult. and forget about using sakura, thats not something u want to do willingly GiveMeSomething

It's tough, but this is no surprise to really, any Street Fighter game. SFIII had Gill, and the EX and Alpha series were tough too.

What controller are you using? 360 or PS3, because if it's 360, you really should go buy a fighting controller or arcade stick, the Dpad is very poor, which forces many gamers to use the Analog stick, which unbeknown to them, is VERY, VERY Imprecise.

They aren't going to Tourney's though, so they may never notice (I have two more tourney's to go to Saturday, which is later today.)

I have a 360 and its Analog all the way, I know that sounds crazy but I wont touch the d-padonewiththegame

That's because you have no choice. Trust me, I have SF2,SSF2HD, and SF4 on 360, and since the DPAD blows so bad, it's has to be analog stick.However, it's not as precise as a GOOD DPAD, which puts you at a disadvantage against good Dpad players.

To negate this, it becomes an Arcade stick issue, however, many things can be done with a Great Dpad > Great Analog stick.

I agree with SF2, but I'm telling you the analog really isn't that bad in SF4, there hasn't been any moves I can't pull off cuz of the controls

but nothing beats a acade stick

I'm probably pickier, since I'm a tourney player, and I alway have to have over 75% win/loss ratio in SF (right now I have almost 90% ranked wins, in almost 200 matches.)

I know it's doable, but it's not preferred. The other problem is I have friends come over constantly, and they don't like playing when I am rocking an arcade stick, while they have to use the frusterating Dpad.

This isn't an issue when we play on my PS3 version,but yeah, the analog stick is doable...

I agree, Arcade stick is the best, but it's nice to have a good alternative for yourself or friends.

Yes, so far only the ARCADE players are allowed, which means No AKUMA, GOUKEN, SETH, Fei Long, Cammy, Rose, Gen, Sakura, and Dan.

It kinda sucks because I rock with Rose, Gen, and Dan, but them's the breaks. I luckily mastered the SHOTO's a long time ago, and play Sagat, Blanka, Vega, and Zangief....sometimes Dhalsim.

Yes, it's a long list, but think how much time and effort I had to put to achieve such a long list. I'm sorry you had to read such a list, but I had to endure playing through that, so I don't mind modivating other Street Fighter players with lists on what to accomplish....especially since he came here asking for it. :)

Who don't I use? I love em' all, Man, I guess I don't use the new characters all that much yet.

Also, I haven't used AKUMA, GOUKEN, or SETH in Ranked Matches, I don't want to take the chance at people being rude.

I grew up always loving Ryu and Vega, but I mastered every character in the SF games, from Dan, to Zangief, to Skullomania.

Although true, I don't know what that has to do with SF4, I use my hands to play that game.

One thing I never understood was the hate towards the 360 d-pad. It works just fine, I use it all the time in fighting game and I never have any trouble pulling off moves. It's a little stiff, but other than that it's great.Vlaphor

Well, that's fine, but M$ acknowledged there is an issue, and even REMADE the Dpad for use in Europe to play Winning for Konami.

Many sites, even GS's review of BIONIC COMMMANDO knocked the 360 score by .5, again due to the Dpad.

Anyone can overcome a hinderance, but if you want to go a few rounds in SSF2HD on 360, I'll oblige you. I will win, and I will point out the flaws through the headset if you want.

I too have overcome the issue, but not to the point where I would call it "great."The Dpad isn't even servicable, it's just poor.

Being good at Basketball, Chess, Football, Videogames, Jeopardy, Writing, Poker, Singing, or whatever doesn't mean you don't have a life. Some of us with talent just have it.

With that mentality you'll won't get better. Don't hesitate to go to a tournament just because you aren't good, fight better players and you'll improve over time. Pros don't mind playing low level players, they'll even give advice if you ask for it. Also try to compete offline, lag can mess up your input.
