yeah i know what you’re saying
if you talk to a lot of hardcore SF2 guys about 3s, they’ll tell you how parry or wahtever ruined the game. which is respectable.
i don’t think saying “3s is old, SF4 is better cause it’s newer” makes sense at all.
not to say sf4 blows, i mean think about it, it took capcom 3 tries to make 3s what it is today, maybe sf4 will take 4 tries or something.
If we’re lucky, it come out **within **a year :o
regardless, i’ll play both and try to become better at both.
but 3S is definitely where my heart will be. x]
speaking of SFIV, though…
Donutholes, are your online matches good?
me and my friend keep disconnecting. it’s annoying as hell.
hahaha, i didn’t like sf4 when i first started playing it, i was like “3S is so much better.” It took me a while to get used to it. SF4 rewards perfect execution with all the combos requiring links. I was used to the sf3, low forward xx super, option select, etc… SF4, feels like a combination of sf2, sf3, and cvs2. All of which are great games. I’m not saying that this makes SF4 the perfect balance of all 3. But give it a chance. Play it for an extended period of time to allow your style to develop. Besides, what other game would you be playing on your 360 or PS3 right now anyways? Nothing else good is out yet. Looking forward to RE5 though…
there’s always dota…
If you’re a sad wii owner like me, go for Madworld ;o
As for the battles disconnecting, my online matches are fine, at least the ranking battles. No random d/cs and stuff. But if you’re playing on campus, I know that sometimes it gets a lil crappy.
Only at 800ish bps. Boo hoo D: crappy 360 pad…
But ggs last night to lionheart and his roomies, odnas, and that andy fellow. I need to learn to play stick while sitting down lol. It still feels weird for me at times.
really random question… but did any of you guys try to do the kara-raging demon motion for akuma in SFIV? it seems to work. didn’t want to ask in the akuma thread because i may just be misunderstanding or what not. plus, akuma’s super doesn’t do a lot of damage in this game anyway. just wanted to ask.
^EDIT^
i tried it with the ultra and it really does seem like i’m interrupting akuma’s forward + strong.
seriously, someone confirm. i’m still n00blet and may be misunderstanding.
^EDIT 2^
lol, found the thread in the akuma forum. look at me getting all excited.
anyway, have a nice day.
oh god… please don’t speak of such atrocities when in the face of capcom greatness.

But so far, I don’t know any way to combo it in besides FADC to dash to Ultra/Super
SFIV and SFII HDR are my first SF games that I’m really serious into. I would try my hand at 3S, but I’m so behind and the learning curve is sooo steep. I’ll just concentrate on SFIV and HDR. Hopefully when SFIV - something comes out, it takes out the shortcuts, big reversal windows and so on.
thanks for finding that. i really didn’t believe i pulled off the kara (i could never do so in 3S x] )
i guess Street Fighter IV really is more lenient than 3S, which i thought was already pretty damn lenient.
i dun think there’s a practical purpose for kara-ultra. kara-super however seems to have the same function as it did in 3S (i.e. comes out faster), except not as much damage.
If we’re talking about karas…
>.>
<.<
Fei seems like he has a godly kara throw. I just have to remember to use it, as well as confirm that it actually works. I think I did it before when I was messing around in training but disregarded, but really I should work on it more.
anybody wanna run some 3s games today? i feel like using my elite twelve
where? at the Game Room again? lol.
12?
FUUUUUUUK
I tried to learn him. It was not pretty QQ
But I don’t think I’ll be around today.
Hm… according to this past wednesday…
Dancing child in background is top tier in sf4. Beats sagat ezpz.
LOL… wut?! o_O
very true, that kid is a beast.
lol flight - try playing on that background in china (most likely) where there are a bunch of kids just cheering in the background.
And then look at the fat one. LOOK AT THE FAT ONE. Try to win while focusing on that guy.
I swear, he looks like my roommate…
Hey, I play 3s, melee, Marvel and Barlw at UCSD. I live on campus in Warren. I’m the half-asian kid that randomly comes to Game Room and I use Chun. Duno if any of you have played me or so, but yea… PM me anytime if you guys are up for games or IM me at cant cook rice. Hope I can play more people at SD. Let me know if you’ve recognized me before in the game room.
we should roll on tuesday
