Yeah that shit was obviously a 09er article. :lol:
daigo and nuki won 3s at sbo one year
alpha was referring to SFIV…not 3S.
i read it all.
mm, daigo made me feel like shit when he said, japanese are better over all.
Does a dirty mexican like me, has no chance at all? =(
I might just concentrate on college.
Just play KOF…
the sheer wimpiness of this post made me wanna take a piss on your forehead :razz:
edit: man I just read that article. I have to give him a little bit more credit than I did before, him saying the stuff he said.
wikipedia says he was born in 1982
I was born in 1986
watch the fuck out, Daigo
OK, I’ll bite. CvS2 is way more Street Fighter than 3S.
No, he wrote it for himself. It’s the current crop of wannabe journalists mistakenly thinking that they’re the key to any good article, so the pretty much just look for something to masturbate over. Hence we get Daigo saying a bunch of interesting shit while Self Absorbed Hack couches it in a bunch of indulgent wank because it’s too hard to admit that he’s not doing any actual work in just letting someone else talk.
“Since then, Umehara’s fame and reputation has spread through the fighting game community and beyond. He plays with unrivalled precision and grace, combining the reactions of a peak-form Muhammad Ali with the strategy of a Garry Kasparov.”
Christ.
he sounds a bit mental.
i can’t believe he has a proper day job aswell.
the way he describes the parry fight is really weird.
also he sounds like an akuma guy:
no one good enough, where is the one who can face me…etc…
maybe he means SF2 Hyper and STHDR on xbox live and psn. i don’t think capcom expected Hyper to sell as well as it did. i’m pretty sure it was the reason they decided to do HDR which sold well too.
Wasn’t SF4 out in arcades before HDR? I don’t think HDR got an official Japanese release either.
Ima be honest, i laughed a little
haha you’re right, he does sound like an Akuma type.
how feel lose? i want know lose…
that is a godly interview much thanks to everyone who made it happen
wtf that man was won more tourneys in more fighting games than youve even entered
^^ that has absolutely no bearing on what alphaqsilly said.
also, I agree with him… I remember hearing something along the lines of Daigo is a beast in America but a grunt in Japan. if this is true, Daigo is pretty damn delusional wouldn’t you say?
I wouldn’t call he delusional. From the rest of his quotes, he seems like the kind of guy who assesses a situation based on past experience. He doesn’t say he’s the best, he’s saying that he hasn’t met anyone younger than him who’ll be able to challenge him. That’s probably why he doesn’t feel threatened by them. Considering he’s played well over 10000 matches, it’s probably a reasonable position to take.
Really wish it had been intentional
lol that isn’t remotely true though
I wish the “journalist” would have asked him why he doesn’t play GG anymore.
No, they should ask him why he doesnt plays MKD, MKA and MKvsDC
xD
