SF x T is fun and competitive. I like it. Hate all you want, but its fun.
That’s fine, depending on where you live. I’d accept that excuse but then I expect this guy to play SkullGirls or another well designed game with good online.
First week sales of SFxT in Japan are in… and it looks freaking disturbing:

In another words, the game looks set to be selling at the level the disc version of AE was selling. Before anyone goes “LOL, horray for Capcom games dying! Long life non Capcom games!” don’t forget SCV was quite a sales flop too. Does this mean a new dark ages for fighting games?
I play the game online all the time, and after the patch, it’s hardly any different than SF4’s netcode. The only difference is that you have to play people farther away because there aren’t as many people online. I only used that quote because it’s the token anti-KoFXIII quote.
My point was that people will deal with a mountain of stupid shit from Capcom’s games, but if one thing is wrong with another game, “That game sucks.”
That’s not a good thing.
But it’s not bad enough to be deal-breaking. As long as you don’t join every 1-bar room you see, you can get decent matches in.
holy shit. i don’t care about sfxt but i didn’t know about this video. yie ar was my first fighting game and this even has a 3S character select screen reference. and the rapping for the white pants guy reminds me of a song from katamari damacy lol. immediate mood improvement upon seeing this.
Do realize that in Japan, they play more Arcade fighters than console only fighters. $50 for MLG for those cash prizes? Why you `plainin?
