SF? Guile Exhibition (Evo2k7 Edition)

i never thought i’d hear explosions in the sky or christie front drive in a combo video

edit: awesome work! the only complaint i have is that the music was mixed way too low, but maybe that was what you were going for. i dunno if the downbeat music in a combovideo really works but it was nice to hear something different for once

SF the movie combos was funny as hell… My god Guile was all over the place in those vids lol!

Yeah it was worth a try. For some reason i just didn’t feel like drowning everything out with rock music this time. I think the volume level works well with the SF2 series segment. Then we run into the intermission where nothing would work due to the constant noise. Then the issue with Christie Front Drive is that the track itself is actually fairly loud the whole way through, but if i raise the volume then the whole thing turns to noise. Anyway that song has too much awesome subtle stuff to survive intact through random fighting game sound effects. My only hope is that people will hear enough of it to convince them to go pick up the album.

Apart from that, my main concern was to avoid drowning out the game sound effects. The end result is not perfect but it gets the job done. I’ve always focused on content first and everything else second. The people who end up with great-sounding videos usually have some musical instruction in their background and i don’t. I’m just a guy who spends a lot of time listening to semi-obscure bands.

Great job with the video.

Is there a reason Marvel wasn’t included in the final cut (time, didn’t fit the theme of the video)? The 3X Guile combo in the trailer was pretty awesome, too bad it didn’t make it in.

Important games like marvel require more time to make combos for

<XNDL> joey
<XNDL> I need you to talk to maj right now
<XNDL> and tell him this video is the best thing I’ve ever seen
<XNDL> ever

hey mr maj, i concur

<XNDL> seriously
<XNDL> this is like a religious experience

love,
your Australian fans

Guile actually has the handcuffs in the Street Fighter Movie game? :rofl:

Excellent vid! :lovin: The combos are awesome, and the encoder just makes the vid that much better!

the video is insane, really really nice

now I want to play with guile too :wink:

Awesome video for one of my favorite SF characters. I really liked the music, I thought it fit really well. Very impressive.

this was easily the best video at evo. as much as i loved nki’s beastly shenanigans, this one just drove me nuts! too bad there wasnt any console sf:tm combos, but the fact there was any type of SFTM combos period makes it too good.

best combo vid of the year in my book.

thanks for the props too =)

the sftm handcuffs stuff was madness good shit :clap:

:wow: maj, that was great stuff. :tup:

AFAIK in earlier SFII games you have something like a 1/255 chance of getting a special move when pressing a button. I don’t know if this was the case here, but it looked identical to what I seen on Youtube.

Thank you sirs. I’m really glad you guys found the video enjoyable.

Actually none of the stuff in the trailer is in the full video. All of it is leftovers that were amusing, but weren’t really up to the standards of the full video. I designed the trailer to serve as kind of a bonus track once the full video was released, cuz if i repeated the same combos then what would be the point of keeping the trailer on your HD?

Originally i had intended on including a bunch of other games, but i simply ran out of time. I had some rough thematic ideas for MvC2 combos but i’m really not a Marvel player even though i enjoy watching Marvel videos. So the choice was: Do i spend a month learning MvC2 so that i can come up with some respectable combos or do i spend the same amount of time working on two or three games i’m familiar with?

It sucks cuz giving up on Marvel was probably the hardest decision of the whole project but i also had to give up on other games like A3 and EX3. However, maybe i’ll do a revision at some point which includes all the games i missed. Not gonna happen for like two years though, cuz i’m completely burned out right now. And even if i do work on a video in the near future, it’s definitely not going to be one of these huge 15+ minute fiascos.

Sorry if i disappointed you, if you were looking forward to seeing more MvC2 combos. That game has a lot of cool stuff in it, like dash forward Sonic Boom (charge back, neutral PPP, F+P) and i’d like to give it a try someday. Not soon though.

Awesome vid maj - major props

i havent downloaded it yet and i can already say its awesome! guile is my fav character yo!

Oh yeah, I never commented… Good shit man! I like how the car did a flash kick lol… I was kind of hoping for more EX combos, but I’m certainly not dissapointed…

Download can’t go fast enough, can’t wait.

At Evo when I was watching this, I remember like a group of Smash player behind me were like WTF. Man this shit was easily the best thing on the Big Screen at Evo.

That combo on Rolento had me laughing man, good shit. Love your devotion to this character, it’s totally inspired me through the years to play him.
