[QUOTE="Got_to_go"]Rank D+ now. I'm getting my ass handed to me most of the time, but I'm improving...slowly. I need to work on combos and looking for openings to use an ultra.Got_to_go

Who do you use?

Trust me, it works. Well, it did in SF4, anyway. I'm sure it still does now.

LOL!

The next time I see you on, I'll take you on - and the trash that goes along with it. ;)

If anyone wants to play, soon would be a good time because I've been in a SF phase. Just ask ShenLong. Had to take out the trash. ;)

To the pad VS controller discussion, yes you can probably get much better with a pad, but I don't find it necessary. I play with a controller, it's what I'm used to, and what I've learned to play with. I'm definitely not great, not tournament level, but I'd like to think I am pretty good, and can pull off specials and ultras usually always first try. I'm not sure how familiar you are with fighting games, or if you were/are a big arcade player, but if you are used to controllers, you can probably make it work for you. The game is great regardless and you should most definitely get it at $17. That's a steal. (Unless we're talking about original SF4..then that's pretty normal.)

That being said, PS3 controllers are defintely better. Though I don't like how the R2/L2 buttons are. My fingers always slip off them.

If it really means that much to you to get in there for old times' sake, go for it, stick-be-damned. If it really starts to mean that much to you to up your game, shelling out another $50 for a Hori EX2 wouldn't be a question at all.

GGs to those that I have fought.

It's just too damn bad that I wasn't able to get back into the party or the game after that.

Someone else's connection really sucked! *looks at Shen* :P

On the bright side, my connection is fine for HD Remix and Forza 3, if anyone's interested.

[QUOTE="SteveTabernacle"] If your not willing to drop big money on an arcade stick and spend large amounts of time on this one game, don't bother with it, because you won't be able to compete. Most of the more casual players have already been scared off, and really, their wasn't half as many of them for this game as their was for the standard version in the first place. Unless you have a lot of local friends who can play, then it can be pretty damn fun. If you don't already have an account at SRK, don't waste your time or money. My two cents.DarkCatalyst

See that's why I haven't picked up SSFIV or the original: It wouldn't just be the cost of the game, it would be the arcade stick too. I just can't play a fighting game with a regular controller. Add that to the fact that I haven't been a competitive player in fighters since SFII, and that also makes me hesitant. I know my skills have greatly dimished. Shame too as I would like to challenge some of you(Catalyst in particular for some reason), but I just don't have the desire to build myself up to that calibur again.

Alright, I'm on XBL again... strictly speaking. Thing is, the connection sucks so effing hard, I might as well not be. There might be a way to get more out of it, but right now, it's bad. Like, pointless-to-play-SF-online bad. Ugh...

So I should be back on XBL in the next day or so. Who's gonna be down for some battles?

Sup guys...

Alright, so I read DC's proposal for the GUP redux, and I'm not against it at all. What did we learn from the first GUPs? That playing as only one character for a whole month SUCKS ASS, that's what. Well, there were some cool things, like the gameplay mechanics I might have otherwise ignored (piano method, anyone?), but a month with nobody but Sagat? Shoot me.

What if we do this: we go about choosing Project characters for each other just like before, and we still have to stick to with that character for a solid thirty days. But this time around, we can choose up to two more Project characters for ourselves, with the only limitation being it has to be someone that would demand real effort in order to make headway. Truthfully, I think if we have three characters to choose from for the month, the one that is chosen for us by our peers would pretty much get ignored, so two total Project characters seems like a smarter compromise.

I'd do it anyway... and just think, now we can all get together and actually enjoy this Project in several big sessions. Pretty cool.

[QUOTE="DarkCatalyst"]We need to get some team battles going at some point. I want to periodically discuss with Shen and Kreatzion which one of us will Daigo the entire other team any given time. :)Metamania

That is all.

:P
