MvC3 guide is totally awesome

Character comparisons? Not sure what you mean by this. If you’re asking for a matchup chart then no, that’s not in the guide.
Information on individual stamina? Yes, along with some other goodies
Tournament strategies? Yes. Seriously, the guide is super dense with text.

But yeah, just peep the guide real quick when you buy the game. It should be real apparent whether it’s something you’re gonna want or not.

Thanks for the info. I was on the fence about picking up this guide, but if it’s seriously ~400 pages, even with frame data and ridiculous amounts of whitespace that’s still a hell of a lot of content, and I’ll definitely have to pick it up. The SSF4 guide wasn’t even half that big, I seem to remember.

If the guide goes moderately in depth with each character then it will come in handy.

hey buk does the guide include info on shuma and jill?

The guide is out already? Thought it doesn’t come out till the game comes out.

jesus you scrubs, he’s giving you a heads up. appreciate it. when it comes out you can flip through it yourself and make up your own mind. buktooth’s opinion on the matter holds weight whether he worked on it or not.

Does the guide have a picture of you doing the campbell dance anywhere in it

I would seriously pay $20 for an MvC3 guidebook that had that

Ordered my strategy guide from amazon for $11.55, I will be getting it late but I had to order some other stuff as well so I got free shipping on it at least. I got it just because it’s 350+ pages.

so. Fucking. True.

Thanks for the heads up. Guides in recent years have been disappointing so I wasn’t going to bother but now I think I’ll grab it.

I never understood how people read while taking a shit. I mean, how long are ya’ll niggas on the toilet? It should take less than 5 minutes >_>

As long as no one needs to use the toilet, I spend the time in there for nice, peaceful, silent reading.

Fairly unrelated, but I hate how the word “scrub” is basicly the go to insult for anything remotly related to fighting games now.
Originality, try it sometime.

Anyway, now that I got that unneeded comment out, I’ll definitely be buying the guide, even without the frame data I have a feeling it’ll be worth it, that’ just puts it over the top.

Quite honestly, it depends on the deuce that’s being dropped.

  1. take your poop
  2. read guide for 15min
  3. wipe your ass
  4. ???
  5. prophet

400 pages says a lot about the effort put into it, plus i trust buktooths opinion when it comes to a guide. damn this game is gonna break me. :party:

you hit the nail right on the fuccing head good sir!

the long man dump is the one place where nobody is gonna fucking bother you. You’re sitting down, it gets warm, the girlfriend/roomate leaves you alone, its silent.

Perfect time and place to read for a good 10 to 15 min.

Also when the crappy apartments where you live randomly turn of all the electricity. Often.

lol, advertising for the guide should add “great toilet reading material” since everyone does it.

If this guide sucks Campbell you’re buying me pho
