SRK Lounge: The Now Open Edition

I still play A3 lol.

KOF98 was the one that really got me into the series. Having a Neo Geo cab with it was almost cool enough to keep the wildly impractical thing. But, I learned how arcade parts work and fulfilled a lifelong goal of owning an arcade machine.

…Which is way cooler on paper. I ended up delivering/selling it to a guy who worked for Harmonix. Years later, fighting games largely suck and I am done with them.

Are CCs ever really good? They always end up dominating any game they’re in, even when they’re not really in the game (3S).<br><br>It’s a cool idea in theory, and I guess if Capcom tries it a dozen more times, maybe there’ll be a balanced version somewhere down the pike. But I’m not counting on it.<br>

God, I hate this new SRK with every fiber of my being. I almost miss the old SRK, its that bad

Seriously? $RK gets retooled for the worse, and theres FGD going on in the lounge? Bring back server time outs plz.

Whatever code the forum uses now doens’t even work half the time.

Excel from EX2 is pretty much the most balanced execution of custom combos around.<br>

IIRC they were’t overpowered in CFJ/CFE, but that’s probably because only 4 characters had them.  And Karin was still really good, from what I remember.

The new forums remind me of the free message boards geocities use to give you for your kiddie website…in the nub non-html site creator. My old Gundam Wing site was hot garbage. =))<br><br><br><blockquote class=“Quote”>

EX2 never got the respect it deserved. I have friends who think it’s garbage because all the major websites said so in retrospectives…like really try the game out.<br><br>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HH07hKkBAGM<br><br>Too bad Akira has been silent on this ever coming out.^ <br>Looks great for a test build. <br><br>[spoiler=now I know where Snider and Blair went to after ex1]<br>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPioK-GgT9o<br>

It’s an April fools joke.

EX series was fun, supers into supers, CC shenanigans and a cool cast. Bland ass backgrounds though.

Don’t remember much about EX except having fun with mountains of Kairi bullshit and that cool noise C. Jack’s baseball bat made.<br>

There is no such thing as tick throws in the EX series that cool demon setup you have not going to work at all.

My dick is ready for Destiny. <div style=“font-weight: normal;”><img src=“http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/485162_10151308161867705_568496704_n.jpg”><br></div><div style=“font-weight: normal;”><br></div><div><b>SHOW US WHATCHA’ GOT, BUNGIE!</b></div>

No, because we aren’t faggots.

That’s too bad. If ever that changes though let me or Leigh know. We’ll do lunch or something again. </div>

That and there’s almost no penalty for a missed activation. Even without CC infinite good players could just walk in your face, let you press a button, then activate through it and take 40%+ life off. In A3 the problem was exaggerated in that you started the round with 100% meter and you could activate at 50%. Take away CC infinites and  50% activation and A3 would have been <i>less</i> wacky.</span></font></div><div><font face=“Arial, Verdana” size=“2”><span style=“line-height: normal;”><br></span></font></div><div><font face=“Arial, Verdana” size=“2”><span style=“line-height: normal;”>***</span></font></div><div><font face=“Arial, Verdana” size=“2”><span style=“line-height: normal;”><br></span></font></div><div><font face=“Arial, Verdana” size=“2”><span style=“line-height: normal;”>goodm0urning - I’m doing good.
