DARKSTALKERS RESURRECTION coming to XBLA and PSN

No one visits Unity for the gameplay discussion.

Really hope IG listens and gets the speed setting changed to the right one before it’s too late.

I’m tempted to go log in on Unity and wade through the scrub tears, though I’ve got work in the morning and I should’ve been in bed already as it is.

Shoutouts to Mizuumi for helping me with framedata and Dustloop with Bulleta mixup options.

I may not have posted there alot, but I ninja’ed alot of that shit.

Honestly, I think more folks from here should log on there and really just push the game. I mean, here’s an audience that can easily be pushed forward to start playing the games more seriously, might as well take advantage of it.

This is sweet…my computer’s been running like crap lately (playing Vampire Savior and Super Turbo on PC can be borderline unplayable for me now :()
so arcade-perfect Vampire Hunter and Vampire Savior with GGPO…:tup:

At the very least I won’t have to carry around my copy of Vampire Chronicle anymore when Darkstalkers Resurrection comes. Recently I’ve been trying to drum up some interest in Darkstalkers by bringing Vampire Chronicle to my local meetups, but I have little to show for my efforts. Maybe it’s because it’s on the Dreamcast and the folks don’t have sticks for it?

Time to practice Lei Lei again. My Senpuubu cancels have been off as of late.

Early 2013? Why does shit like this always have to drop when I work 60 hour+ weeks, and not in say, April, when I begin my long vacation?

For anyone worried that the DS using Ikeno’s “let’s copy Bengus/Akiman” artstyle, don’t worry, Morrigan had man-hands back then.

Ono gets points for the teaser not being Morrigan/Felicia/Hsien-Ko focused.
I expect to hear more about it at the SF25th finals

Lei-Lei had beefy manhands from the beginning, even more pronounced than that. Infact, SF4 Chun-Li’s hands are NOTHING compared to them.

It’s justified, because you gotta throw and drop those solid tons with something.

Also

[details=Spoiler]The big DARKSTALKERS RESURRECTION poster picture makes two glaring errors on Lei-Lei - the dress is now red in her back making the sleeve round (like MVC3), and the ball on her hat is now a cat bell!

If only they used proper reference…[/details]

A couple of thoughts: the " Darkstalkers is not dead" trailer looked damn good. Zabel looked as fucked up an emanciated as i remember him from the old games but maybe slightly more inhuman. The “manhanded roid beasts” that people have been worrying about were nowhere to be seen, except for maybe Demitri and you know what? He looked fine. The classic Darkstalkers batswarm looked great. In conclusion, im not gonna say that haters gonna hate, but i will say…

Can’t talk about Hunter, but VSav is pretty easy to get into unless you pick a character that’s hella technical to start with like Zabel, Anak, Jedah, etc. And as far as “killers” there’s like what? 10 people in the US that are REALLY good? Not even probably. In most Vampire playerbases I’ve seen the vast majority of players are still relatively green at the game, and it wouldn’t take much to catch up to them aside from wanting to actually play and learn.

Bad reasons for people not play it right now, if those two reasons are actually stopping people.

But Demitri is a manhanded roid beast. Most of the cast is.

And why do you care?

You guys get the chance to not only draw new people to the game you play but also to get a brand new game on the franchise and all you can say is “get off my lawn”? If the new players drop it later on, who gives a shit? You will still have the people that already play it.

Saw the announcement yesterday and it looks like a good port is coming our way. I’m a little worried about buying since it’s probably one of those deals where a purchase might boost the chances of an Ono led DS. Not very fond of that idea at all. The 3D trailer looked decent and I’m glad they used another character besides Morrigan. Will watch the development of the DS franchise carefully for the next few months, I guess. They should totally set VSav to the proper tournament speed for ranked and player matches while they are at it too.

The make sure to tell Derek what the series needs. MvC:O shows that they’re listening. Turbo speed in ranked is gonna be fixed if enough people ask for it (and it seems the speed may have been due to confusion at what speed arcade tournaments were played at).

I’m hyped! I’m really glad with a good actual port coming to PSN/XBLA with GGPO nonetheless, VSav was mad fun to play.

As for the DS4 project, I’ll remain hopeful, I hope that Capcom learned from SFxTK and that they don’t turn the game into a big marketing gimmick and instead create a solid fighter and build it up from there. I hope they retain the speed and feel of the game, the really fast high/low game etc. Hopefully whatever noob-friendly mechanic develops into something good competitively. My personal dream is a reversal system that actually takes some work.

I’m scared for the soundtrack, but lately I feel like that for almost every game, what the fuck happened to the real composers?

I wish they did! But they won’t. They will rehash SF4’s ugly art style yet again.

Sigh.

You know who we need to be in charge of the development of the new Darkstalkers? The guys behind the new Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure fighting game, Cyber Connect 2. Those guys would surely do Darkstalkers’ art style justice. They’d proabbly make it look cartoony and yet smooth and vibrant, like it should look. Heck, they could even base the 3D models on Bengus’ art!

But let’s stop dreaming. We’re gonna be stuck with SF4’s grotesque and crude art style.

How do we tell them this stuff? Unity?

If that’s the case what difference did re-releasing it make? That’s falsifying hope, and as I said already the community isn’t like that at all, just a few folks in this thread :stuck_out_tongue:
