Street Fighter IV

play it and decide for yourself before running me down you sad little prick.

 

[revol68]

it might be annoying, i remember M.Bison being so back in the day of the SNES, doesn't stop the fact you're a whiney lil bitch.

 

[DotCommunist]

Zangief was always the shittest character by far.

Yup followed closely by the yoga fire guy...

yoga flaaaame

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Yeah that's the guy, boring as shit to play as...

 

[DotCommunist]

Was he fuck, his stretch kicks wer ace.

He was just a pussy though, to easily beaten. Blanka was a much better novelty character

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Nah he was too jumpy and slow, bad combination. Blanka was better mainly due to surprise attacks...

dont remember before since i never could play him, but he's possibly the most powerful character in this game.

grow up sonny, then you might be worth listening to.

I dunno what his beef his, probably best to ignore him...

Even though I'm not a big fan of the slower characters I always did like E Honda, his fast slapping thing is great fun!

I ordered Streetfighter 4 on express delivery. It's arriving any momenty now!

 

[fen_boy]

Played this last night online with my mate. It was great fun - no lag at all either. Can't remember any of the moves except Ryu's though and I still can't beat Blanka in arcade mode.

 

[mwgdrwg]

I has a stik!

This game has made me buy an arcade joystick, can't wait to play with it.

I got bored after 30mins! I don't know, maybe I tried to like it too much. It reminded me of watching the Phantom Menance for the first time. All nostalgic though lacking essence...(be cool if they released Gaunlet too).

I try again tonight.

(Ryu still rocks. Ken's uppercuts devestating. Chun Li is still sexy as hell).

One's going for 40 quid somewhere I think, where did you get yours?

Some Hori EX2's were in stock at Amazon very briefly yesterday evening. I managed to nab one but they all sold out quickly. Amazon keep getting a little bit of stock every now and again so it's worth keeping an eye out.

I would dearly love one of the new Madcatz Tournament Edition sticks, they are fantastic, but out of my price range at £150. The £70 Standard Edition sticks are apparently shit with a lot of problems with the stick sticking (!) and a loose washer grinding out the pcb after a few hours play.

I love that Ken flowchart. It pretty much sums it up. Especially the end of it.

Yeah I saw that deal on the CAG tweet, but got distracted at work and they were all gone when I went to the link...

 

[Kid_Eternity]

You can pick it up for £21 brand new here.

 

[Awesome Wells]

my thumb's gone numb playing this. I have Hadoken Finger!

I'm not so sure about this, I obviously loved SFII back in the day but I just can't get the hang of this one - I can't work out the special moves at all, they seem just about impossible to do on a standard 360 pad and there's no way I'm paying for a stick.

The game looks great and I can tell there's a whole lot of depth to the fighting, but I just don't know if I can be arsed to put in that much time to learn it all...

I can pull off the fireballs and dragon punches about 70 of the time now with the dpad. There's a game pad coming soon which is meant to have a better dpad (and also got the 6 buttons on the top of the pad)...

 

[Final]

maybe that's cos we didn't know any special moves yet.

What happens if you try F,D,DF + P ?

 

[Kid_Eternity]

?

Anyway, still loving this game! Decided to spend some time trying to unlock characters rather than battering the shit out of people online (not that that isn't great fun). Have just unlocked Sakara (sp?)...

 

[Final]

love it.

 

[Awesome Wells]

I see they've started charging for DLC costumes already on the discs we've all paid for.

Yeah utter piss take given its nothing for them to change the bloody colours. I like Cheapy D's open letter to Capcom about this...
