The New Fist of the Star/Hokuto no Ken thread

Yeah, thats what I really want to see!

More awesome match videos to encourage more people to play it:bgrin:

Bleh. My computer crashed three times when I was making a reply. One day I’m going to go Office Space on it. The question is just when.

That’s quite unfair to compare White and Shiro to those KOF players without any kind of evidence. Nothing seems to lead me to believe that they would drop the game for that reason you said. Heck, tianyuan and I already gave reasons to why we think otherwise, unless you want me to break it down for you.

I only questioned that date because I didn’t read White’s reply to tianyuan’s message on White’s blog. After that it became somewhat clear without knowing the details as to why he’s going to quiting playing HnK. My reply reflects that.

I don’t think they have to do so, because they already earned their fame in this game. They helped further to break the game, and they fleshed out how the characters they play should play at their maximum potential.

Honestly, I think your trying to save face, because your logic throughout this argument is hella messed up. So let’s just drop this my friend. :slight_smile:

Yeah, lets drop this whole thing, I just get kinda pissed off when this game gets no love or I hear everyone is going to leave this game.

That and fearing there will be not a lot of match vids anymore to encourage this game to many players.

Man, I really hope a lot of players get into this game once it comes out on PS2, its pretty much a 3s/CvS2/MvC2 nation here, nothing against those games, but I hate it when Im the only one playing HnK alone for hours at the arcade, I need comp!!!

Hmmm, not to sure how it will be. Overall here, the game didn’t make much of a splash in the puddle. And it looks like that’s been the case for everywhere the game is at in North America. Though, I do expect a bit bigger and strong scene than there already is right now. At the very least, people are going to want to get the game to do all the broken stuff. So…I guess we will see.

I thought it was going to appeal to GG fans since it was made by Arc Sys, but I don’t think it did to all of them.

Any possibility of having a HnK tourney for Evo?

I heard the Jap players beat the crap out of the U.S. players in that game on Evo2k6 when it was on display, Im hoping a lot of players might sharpen their skills and take a crack on it again!

An unofficial tourney probably is likely to happen. Even more so if the game does get release on the PS2 before Evo. But as an official tourney? No way. It’s simply not possible to build a viable tournament scene with the Evo Staff’s standards on that for a game in four months, which is likely going to be import only. Maybe in 2008…

Don’t get it twisted. I hope you DO understand why this rule exists. And thanks for pointing out the other instance of this, I wasn’t actively monitoring this thread back then(and don’t to most threads unless people TELL ME THESE THINGS). Looks like I got another 400+ posts to look through so you don’t feel like someone has it out for you.

I’ve been looking for a real reason to get rid of that troll anyway.

Does anyone know if or when the Raoh Gaiden OST comes out? The Souther vs Kenshiro fight music r0x0rz!!!

^ I still prefer the 80’s version of that fight but the ending is better than the original IMO.

a few thangs my nigga ninjas

One - this shit about white n shiro talkin bout quitin??! Hell to tha mutha fuckin naw naw dees niggas is trippin casue how the fuck you gonna develop a re-lick-my-dickulous juda (no homo) and one of the most gangsta ass kenshiro’s and tokis in tha motha fuckin community and then be like… " Next year I’m done son and not givin any of you niggas a reason either"?? If any of ya’ll nigga ninjas of mine in this community know dem (shiro n white) personally hit dem up and be like “Its your destiny ta be ill in dis game n scatter clues fa those who aquate the style”…

two- I’ve been going to this nigga Hydra632’s house ta play HNK and thats tha only one in Arizona… Now my nigga ninja has been tellin me that when the console version comes out… That the game is gonna be revised n shit to a point to where its gonna be a totally different game… Like certain combos bein taken out n shit like that… Is dis true??

Yeah, I kinda like the older verion better myself. But I loooove the music of the new one. Now we gotta wait for Yuria Gaiden to come out. :looney:

Quickie Question: Are Heart’s grab infinite’s characters specific? I’ve only had his air throw one work on Rei and his IT HURTS! infinite grab on Roah, Ken, and Shin.

Quickie answer:

^ So HnK has those wierd 2P Side benefits like KOFXI does with Mr. Heart? Neat. Nice to see that the Japenese think Jagi is better than Mamiya(Which he is anyway).

Uh, they don’t. Jagi is horrible. Mamiya has multiple infinites, unblockable setups, and big damage combos. She also knocks off stars like a champ. Jagi has nothing.

i play hokuto some times at university of marlynd but thats only if the guy feels like bringing it

i play raoh any advice on him cause i cant wait until it hits ps2

raoh is hard for newbies :expressionless: .

I play some Raoh, but Gwyrgyn Blood is probably more capable of giving you any advice. Shoot off any questions you have and I’ll answer them to the best of my knowledge.

i can’t describe raoh … his damage and combos are awesome , but he is risky to use .

wow roah is like kinda cool but what do I know I play ken n rei
