Well, you’re right and you’re wrong. It’s not so cut and dry. Sometimes a normal will beat out another normal from a certain range or at a certain timing, and at other spacings/timings it won’t. So it’s not so simple, especially in some cases where said normal is your ONLY option AT said spacing/timing. So if you just let it go at “Well it didn’t work that one time”, you’re boxing yourself into having no options. Kind of a specific example, but it does happen.
Colored me interested as well.
Really a teaser tho, is it a new movie or a new game?
pP
…well…the MK series (…actually video games in general) has always been a little too campy. Turning campy franchises into “real-life” adaptations has been the new trend for cinema the past couple of years…it’s how some of the hollywood blockbusters survive. These kinds of films are still trapped in the “Dark Knight” era…I’m not the biggest fan of production companies trying to make real-life adaptations. Often times they stray too far away from the franchise and hardcore fans always leave disappointed. Films like these make it seem like just because you give Baraka a term like “homicidal maniac” to describe him, that its the only way society will understand the game/comic genre. However, this direction isn’t necessarily a bad one…it’s a much better effort than what the 90’s produced.

::EDIT:: Jordyn, I wouldn’t mind ST coaching…I like to think I take criticism well. I still play DeeJay…and I think I have the metagame to some degree. I usually don’t mind playing other games because it gives me a break from Tekken. We’ll play this week if I make it to AL…
Is there a way to get my saved SSF4 replays off my memory card and on to my PC? I have an Xbox 360.
edit… Meh…
Matt if you have GG at AL thursday im down for playing a bit.
Yo how about you just lose this post. This wasn’t really called for. He isn’t forcing anyone. -__-
Sounds like someone has sand in thier vagina.
lol what a douche. Gimmie a ride to AL thrusday!:mad:
Money is required, couple bucks is fine. Please pay with $20’s. No, I do not have change.
Damn, missed it.
Was this an “anti-everything that’s not SFIV” post?
I don’t listen to hip hop.
Dashio, Epsilon J, Momochi, Uryo, Kindevu, Gasshuku, Aru, MA@ERO, Kyabetsu all confirmed for Evo.
^^^ the US is so fucked
^^^ Hopefully it will scare everyone shitless into practicing like they “should be”. Sweat bands and all.
We gonna push it to the limit.

I don’t know. I think the U.S will do better this year… Oh wait Momochi and Uryo? Hmm yeah fucked. Maybe we will do better at SB.
I wouldn’t sleep on any of these guys (if I was JWong**), especially Momochi, Uryo, Kindevu, and Kyabetsu. Dashio is really good too, but i’m not familiar with the rest.
***Besides, JWong sleeps on Marn. Literally.
Momochi- Arguably best Akuma
Kyabetsu- Viper that won SBO
Uryo- Arguably best Viper
Kindevu- Best Rufus
Dashio- Top Viper
U.S. is fucked. Also in regards to ST not being gimmicky, uh what? There are certainly gimmicks to be had in that game, and many of them result in loops. These loops require you to be able to perform a 1 frame reversal, and your character to posses a reversal move. Say you pick Bison, and you’re fighting Honda, an already terrible match up. Now you’re in the corner. Welp, better put down the stick if you don’t have a super because you cannot escape his Oichio Loop (read gimmick). ST is the game of no options, 3s is the game of too many options, and 4 is the game of option selects.
no you cannot sleep marn!
I used to be a “US WILL COMPETE!!” hopeful until I was invested last year and we got smashed anyways.
Since then I’ve been with Adam when it comes to our chances at SBO. Between them just having better comp AND it being a single-elim tournament which we just don’t ever do at majors…it’s too huge of an advantage before we even start playing…
And that’s before they put our best teams up against Japan’s best teams…just to make SURE we don’t cause any noise.
Until I see it, I’m with Adam, we got no shot, so no sense getting excited. Watch SBO to watch the amazing play, but put the flag away, cause it’s not gonna happen for a long time if it ever does…
Someone just has to play Guile. How can you lose with Guile? amirite? Bald Eagle bros…
lol, what did Quentin say in his post? I’m curious. Especially if it was derogatory.
Anyways, I’ll be at AL Thursday for anyone interested in getting some ST in.
