Sirlin.net: "The Anti-Progress Attitude"

3SO can be rebalanced if you want it to be. Just make a lobby and ban Gill/Chun/Yun. There ya go.

I told you guys this thread would be nothing but butthurt, and you guys still posted in it and you all still got butthurt.

Dovod Sorloin is powerful magic around these parts.

But what happens once scrubs start getting bodied by Ken or get destroyed by dat Dim Mak? How can they ban them too with only 3 slots?

Lol Couldn’t of said it better.

Agree 100% with this post

They’re fkd. Fk’m. You want the bike, you gotta work for the bike money. Werd. looooool

I usually don’t participate in these mud slinging threads cause its essentially pointless…

However I knew amidst torch and pitch forks of the 3S lovers, there’s going to be atleast one person thats gonna take some kind of stupid shot at the current games.

Before you respond to this, ask yourself…

Who am I? What have I done to make my opinions matter?

What do I know about the SF4 tournament scene? What do I know about putting in work? Was I even playing in 3S tournaments when the game was still relevant?

To me, your just another fanboy jock riding a couple japanese players, just like the rest of the sf4 community.

Its cool keep playing 3S, i respect that, but don’t act like you know it all or you been there and done that…

Fuck it right? Talk down on the SF4 community, Its like the popular thing to do nowadays anyways…

Shoots my Cred up like 10 folds

The problem w/ Sirlin’s HDR was apparently just the HD background…If 3S would keep everything the same(classic) & add a remix mode that would have been nice. Keep the OGs happy & get new people interested…

What?

Why should a rebalance be necessary to get new people interested? Why should people who have never touched the game be concerned about how ‘new’ it is? If you haven’t played it, it’s new to you. If anything it’s the dudes who’ve been playing the game for years who have the most right to want a rebalance, and they don’t.

Yeah the classic mode still had HD backgrounds due to time constraints & probably more cost…If they would have implemented it, maybe the OGs would stop bitching about classic mode in HDR.

sirlin sucks, hdr sucks, 3s sucks, chess 2 sucks, yomi sucks. puzzle strike is ok. dominion is better than puzzle strike. ggpo is cool.

Jesus could tell them the classic mode is perfect and they still wouldn’t budge.

Actually this is so true…For them the only way to play ST is on 2 japanese cabs going head to head w/ CPS2 hardware running…

I played the original & i didnt like it…Maybe with a remix i be incline to buy it to see the new changes. Why do you care so much if there is a remix version of it if they keep the original intact? Having rebalance would be like a fresh start & may help even the play field for newer players.

Love all these games. Played all of them a lot. I played them when they were first released and now I own all of them on arcade cabinet.

You have to consider that out of all the games mentioned Third Strike is the game that aged the best. I live in So Cal and there is still a scene for 3S in arcades. There is really no scene for Alpha2/3 or Super Turbo in arcades today. Third Strike still has aged well. It’s a game that took a while for people to get around to. When Alpha 2/3 came out it was an instant hit but now no one plays. The opposite is true for 3S.

One has to ask that with all it’s “imbalances”, why do people still continue to play 3S up unutil this day?

3S didn’t really even take off until 2002 and not REALLY until 2004 so that’s hardly a fair comparison.

whos david sirloin?

This is true. ST purist are a weird cult.

I personally like hdr and get a lot Of play time with it though

ST purist for some reason deride everything.

Everybody have fun with what you play!

Well besides games like def jam icon

I still am holding out hope for capcOm to give us sfa3’upper:online gold and cvs2:oe

I personally think 'upper got it to the good point and we get maki, ingrid, eagle, and yun

Mental orgasm designed only for capcom that is the shit storm if cvs2 gets re-touched

Also age well? ST and A3 still play fun as they did back then. Just us dudes playing are old

sirly he didnt mean it ?

:stuck_out_tongue:

see wut i did der ?

Stopped reading there. He’s using Blizzard as an example of how balance should be delt with? Are you kidding me in my balls? Have you EVER played a blizzard game? The things he’s listing blizzard is good for is actually EXACTLY what they’re guilty of. This guy is out to lunch.

Sirlin couldn’t have made it more obvious that he’s salty HDR bombed and is seen as a bane on the ST community whereas this game promised arcade perfect 3S with ggpo, and gave exactly that.

Re-releasing a game without balance changes is NOT an admission of ‘so what if its unbalanced?’. Its saying 'Hey, a TON of people love this game, so here it is on a modern console, with a bunch of new features, and you can play it online.

It isn’t wrong, it isn’t bad, it isn’t damaging to the community Cough HDR Cough it isn’t counter productive. He’s just plain wrong.

Are you SERIOUS? Capcom should be embarassed they ever let this salty, conceited, ragecase work on one of their games? Sirlin needs to be locked up where he can’t hurt good games anymore.

When you said ‘thread’ you meant to say ‘article’, right? The one written by a guy who was supposedly a professional yet writes like I’d expect anonymous forum trolls to?
