Also, to anyone that cares - Sade was incredible. Her set was flawlessly executed from start to finish, she did a ton of songs, and she was gorgeous for every second of it.
Seriously…if I remember correctly Sade is 52…and she would get wifed…today.
They came out every year though, or longer at times, and people didn’t BITCH about imbalance. That was the point…you dealt with it and that was the end of it. How many people remember how stupid Ibuki and Akuma and Sean were in 2I? Well, I do, and they were dealt with in 3s…that game has Urien stupidity, a lot of Yun and Chun Li stupidity, Makoto stupidity, and Ken stupidity…but we aren’t really talking about that game for some reason; a heavily flawed game that is being masked as better than SF4 for some weird reason and the balance is way the fuck off…
There were 2 arcade versions of MK3. Trilogy was never released in arcades and it was not there for balance or “high level” play. It was MK3 and the “free” upgrade UMK3, that was the joke about MVC3…the game was so screwy now UMVC3 comes out like UMK3 did. World Heroes had 1, 2, Jet, and Perfect, but none of these games were patches, they came out, people played them, a year or two later they were forgotten…the specifics for the community now are to bitch and whine about characters. I don’t even USE Yun and my characters are basically terrible supposedly now in this game, but my win rate is the same…that is why I find this so ridiculous to believe…
The fact of the matter is the games came out a year later as a new game, not some wild update that is going to confuse people or releasing games way too early before people even get to figure out more stuff in a game…we’re going to be 2.5 years in and on the 4th version of Street Fighter IV? Really?
Luis: I was a Senior Editor at Tips & Tricks for 8 years…I wrote strategy guides and previews and Tournament Report and various arcade and collecting articles…that was from 1997-2005…
Chris: The only patch stuff really was MK stuff because they had to rush the games out and Chicago always had the game early, so yes, that is nothing new in that sense, but it’s hard to figure out wtf you have in MK if you just buy the game off the shelf…
The other SF games:
91-SF2
92-CE
late 92-HF (in response to all the bootleg Rainbow Edition games)
93-SSF2
94-SSF2T
95-Alpha
96-Alpha 2
97-SF3
98-Alpha 3
98-SF3 2I
99-SF3 3s
2000-CVS1
2001-CVS2
That was it until 2009…all of those games are part of the Street Fighter timeline for SF based games…even the CVS series…2005 had Fighting Jam but that game was a blip and was the first Capcom fighting game for SF characters on that style engine no one really had official tournaments for…
Yes, the list does look crowded but seriously SF4 series was balanced more than that entire list I just listed, that is why the patching and whining doesn’t make sense. Every single one of those games (even ST) only had a handful at BEST of viable characters and some had stuff so dominating and broken that you had no choice but to use it or deal with it (Nakoruru CVS1, roll cancelling and A groove CVS2, A3 V ism and infinites and shoddy hitboxes), Alpha 2 customs that take off 50-70%, Alpha 1 unblockables and Ken and Guy (yes, Guy) infinites in SF3 (Ibuki), etc
But Jason, now we have to deal with shit like Oni infinites.
Oni has an infinite? SfIV has really bad scaling though. How could the infinite really be that much of a factor?

Random info in case some of you forgot.
This Saturday, Aug. 6, is Milln’s monthly Blazblue/Marvel/Mystery tournament at GG. Yes, another mystery game tournament from the same guy that brought you Samurai Kirby.
DARE I ENTER MARVEL!??
There probably won’t be too many entrants, so you might as well go for it.
Doesn’t it cost meter though?
:lol:
…
If I wasn’t broke as shit I’d be there in a heartbeat.
I probably will. I’m just way out of practice. So I’ll still be doing like the day one shit from when the game came out.
Best ever Tekken video commentary.

LMAO!!!Trolled!
I’ll try to be at game galaxy around 5pm tonight.
Why is it that everytime I see/hear Ermac’s intro in MK9… “We are many, you are but one!” I always think he should follow it up with “…but enough talk, HAVE AT YOU!” like Dracula from Symphony of the Night?
My theory is that the voice acting is equally bad.
NeoBlood: LOL…don’t forget, that guy needs a PS3 pad to do Oni Infinite and an HDTV because Trinitrons lag, lol
Yeah man, if whining about balance and crying for patches is a pet peeve of yours, stay far, far away from this thread:
Those are fun to read though, especially the ridiculous posts.

I love those threads. Everyone just wants their character to be ST Akuma. I honestly can’t understand how these people play the game and then say what they do. And half the thread is about Bison. " Ryu should have sonic boom-like recovery on his fireballs. " Sounds like a plan.
