The GranGlue Fighter Lounge: Corona Virus bodied Shadaloo Free AF

Because the name is a reference to Zato-ichi? I thought he was a known character, I believe Kurosawa even did a big budget movie for the character.
Anyway Zatoichi is a blind ronin titular character of a Japanese TV series and many movies.

Weekends doe, week ends

What’s ridiculous is that you keep playing the damn game or better trying to talk about its fuckery in here, don’t know if you noticed but since the CPT has been on hiatus basically no one here has talked SFV.
And this not a knock on you, play whatever you like, but this whole thing furthers my old point, SFV is a spectator’s FG, no tournaments, no interest.

You’re fighting 2 opponents: lag and the idiot playing Cammy or Ken on the other end. Just know Ono has a brick under his boxing glove when he’s coming at you.

Our province released a list of “essential services” and I’m shocked by everything that is so “essential” to our survival.

I know this isn’t really the place to bring these sort of things up, but I’m curious what some people think of this list.

Yeah, that’s why they decided to spice it up with the reverse weeb tech.

Instead of boring, old Zato-Ichi, they went with Zato-One.

Kurosawa didn’t ever direct a Zatoichi movie. I think you might be thinking of Zatoichi Meets Yojimbo, though that was directed by Kihachi Okamoto and I’m pretty sure Toshiro Mifune’s character in it was only similar to the one he played in Yojimbo and Sanjuro, rather than being the same character.

All the Zatoichi movies I’ve seen have been great though. I love how Shintaro Katsu plays that role.

Had the same reaction until someone pointed out in the CoVid thread that alcoholics going through withdrawal and trying to drink anything would probably lead them to the ER.

No need for the extra work.

Returning to the console performance topic I just want to know few things.

If the custom GPU the new Xbox / PS5 will have,has similar performance to an RTX 2080 , a 700 euro high end card, then how will the console maintain it’s expected 400 / 500 price range ?

I’m very skeptical.

I know, just pointed out a little tibid.
I guess Ishiwatari didnt want to be so on the nose with the Zatoichi reference and named him Zato ONE instead.

Usually consoles are sold at lose, with the console manufacturers actually recouping costs by selling games/exclussives.

Which is why i am curious about the Xbox, since it wouldnt have exclussives for a while.
They probably plan on using the streaming service as a substitute for that.

Well, that seems like quite a huge risk to take.

Sell at a loss and hope you recuperate your loss as well as make a profit based on exclusives ?

Is what they have been doing since the ps3 and 360 days at least.

Tbh i never looked into the manufacturing costs of the consoles over the years, i won’t say you are wrong but still seems quite a gamble.

Still if they will be around 400 euro / dollars for the performance they will bring then that’s a good deal.Just add keyboard and mouse support for shooters though. Can’t stand gamepads for shooters.

That would depend more on the devs and not the console manufacturers.
Every console supports keyboards and mouses.
But the devs dont allow them to be used on the games.

Anyway, there are special keyboards that act as controlers where you plug the mouse to play with them anyway.

THEY GAVE HIM THE LOINCLOTH
