Speed glitches = stages run at different speeds. Gief’s stage runs faster than normal, as well as Sim’s stage I believe.
Damn the hsf2 tourney looks awesome. I hope that game comes back over here.
It’s a fun game, but I’m not sure how it stacks up competitively. A lot of the old characters seem way too powerful, and from what I hear, there’s a variety of weird odd bugs and glitches that make it more suited as a ‘fun’ game rather than a ‘competitive’ one.
Although, it would be awesome to see it as a side tournament sometime. Hell, I’d love to play the SNES SF2:Turbo game as a side tournament.
The vega and blanka bugs kill it, plus the CE and HF characters being hilariously too good
Are you referring to the glitches that severely screw up their inputs for their charge moves?
I kind of like the idea of everyone playing a CE or HF character. At the very least, it’d be a fun side tourney.
The one year they had HSF2 at EVO it was basically an all CE Bison tourney. The game is fun, though. Playing it on XBL on the original Xbox (laggy netcode and all) is what got me back into playing SF2 again after not playing it at all for years since the arcades died. The high damage output of the CE and HF characters made those versions the better options for almost every character (Honda and Balrog the only ones who are probably better in ST). Maybe not the most balanced but still fun.
Mars, you just want to wreck people using CE Guile, LOL.
I thought those bugs only existed on the console ports (japanese re-release notwithstanding).
