Capcom get your shit together

[SSJ_Sonikku]

It is nice that they are making games, but are they ever going to make NEW fighting games?

I wanna suck your huge cock Femto

I can’t allow that.

Speaking of that dinosaur piece of shit. You know the game is broke when a 10,000 pound huge dinosaur who can somehow speak english can be THROWN. I mean what the fuck? You would think that his only advantage would be that he is so fuckin big that he CAN’T be thrown, but apparently physics and logic don’t exist anymore. I just shook my head in disgrace when Urien proceeded to piledrive that piece of shit not once, but twice. Bitch deserved every minute of it.

There WAS a game that addressed the throwing of super-heavy characters…let’s see…oh, that’s right: Samurai Shodown 1-2. The characters would grab then do a sweet 4-5 hit combo ending in a knockdown when they grabbed Earthquake.

IIRC I read in an issue of Play Magazine that they were asking some people if they would want the next SF game to be 2D or 3D. I’ll see if I can find that Issue.

I haven’t played SS2 in years so hell if I remember. I know fighting games aren’t supposed to be real and all with fireballs and all that super human shit, I’m just thinking in terms of balancing the games (IE how they make a shitty character even more shitty). I mean if I’m going to play as a big lard ass dinosaur, at least I should have the capability of not being thrown. Doesn’t matter really, I tried playing the game again last night and the more I played it, the more I wanted to pop in 3S. I think I should return this thing.

the people in capcom r hooked of that 3d bullshit

[beelzebubble]

i love how every thread addressing capcom’s flaws has to have a dose of “but they’re better than snk” in there somewhere…

:lame:

[polarity]

:rolleyes: Yeah, games like Devil May Cry 3, Viewtiful Joe 2 and Resident Evil 4 are just “3d bullshit”.

Bottom line is, some of you guys need to get it into your heads that Capcom doesn’t owe you SHIT. People seem to think that the fact that they’ve played previous Capcom fighters entitles them to more - don’t you realize that Capcom paid back your support with the hours of enjoyment you got from playing those games? Capcom never said they’d keep making SF games forever. Capcom never said they were anything other than a profit-motivated company. So where has this fucking selfish sense of entitlement come from?

If you have a problem with what Capcom are doing, then support other 2d fighter companies. If their products aren’t good enough for you, stop being a lazy fuck, learn some useful skills, get a team together, and make the game you want to see on your own. Games like Eternal Fighter Zero and Melty Blood show that it CAN be done. But of course, you guys would rather just bitch and moan while making absolutely zero effort to improve the situation yourselves. Pathetic.

Wait a minute. Let me get this straight. They can generate and throw fireballs out of thin air. They can jump twice their height (sometimes more). They can survive being set completely on fire. A 500 lb sumo wrestler can fly face first across the screen.

But, the big logical flaw that ruins the whole game for you is the fact that they can pick up a dinosaur?

it’s complicated

[System_1]

When it becomes commerically viable for them to do so.

There were at last reports, plans being made for SF4 and a new Darkstalkers game but those disappeared with the news Capcom lost a lot of money.

When they get the funding and it becomes possible, I’m sure we’ll see another fighting game from them.

Did anyone ever think that the reason the Street Fighter series has remained so popular is because of how Capcom didn’t churn out sequel after sequel?

Yes, they did upgrades of Street Fighter, but because SF2 was such a huge sucess, they were able to maintain interest in the series. We wouldn’t even have this thread if people still didn’t care about Capcom’s fighting games.

SNK on the other hand, chose to flood the market with their games, causing a loss of interest and poor sales. SNK vs Capcom hasn’t sold well at all and is like $15 new last I saw. Now, you can say that it’s because the rom was all over the net, or you can say that it’s because the game sucked. Either way, outside of the die hard fans, noone gives a crap about what SNK is doing, because they are the same game with a new label.

However, wether it’s tommorrow or 5 years from now, if STREET FIGHTER 4 hits, it will out sell every other fighter.

Also, as far as Street Fighter 2 rehashing goes, did Capcom really make that many rehashes? Lets count:

World Warrior
Champion Edition (Adds 4 new playable fighters)
Hyper (speeds the game up)
Super (Adds 5 new fighters, 4 playable and runs on CPS2 with more polished graphics)
Super Turbo (Adds Akuma playable, speeds up, new moves, and Super Combo Meter)

Now, if you go by SNK’s philosophy, they would have done the same, except they would have called them, STREET FIGHTER 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

You’re obviously biased beyond reason when talking about SNK and Capcom, so I won’t even bother trying to reason with you. However, you need to learn and accept the fact that 2-D fighting is no longer very popular. Street Fighter 4 would not sell like hotcakes, in fact there’s a good chance it would hardly sell at all. Dead or Alive would out-gross that shiz without even trying.

He’s right it is complicated. The dinosaur being thrown brings up bad memories of The Land Before Time when the mother brontasaurus got fucked up by that T-Rex during the big quake. On that reason alone the game sucks. For no other reason but the fact that throwing dinosaurs is wrong.

I wouldn’t doubt that at all, DOA is hot. And I am not biased. I was merely trying to prove that SNK has ripped itself off just as much as Capcom, though Capcom has handled it a lot better. Not many people care about SNK anymore, 2-D or otherwise.

the thread was never about cap vs snk you dumb fuck. you turning it into another one of those threads is what makes you a dumb fuck. oh that and your biased unsubstantiated fanboyism…

Nobody cares about Capcom’s fighting games either, and seeing as that’s practically all SNK makes (and they VERY RARELY make 3D games, which have all sucked) then this is kind of a retarded point :rolleyes:.
