yea for some reason i couldn’t play jesse. must be operator error cuz no problem playing all the other folk.
Dude, that was like total hell. XBAND was my friend and I was the lonely child whos waiting by the park. God, Ill never forget the countless connections I bought for XBAND.
Duran Duran still kicks ass.
hrm, so it sounds like the server has been down for a while …
is there anyone who woud like to play right now?
it’s tuesday afternoon right now …
everyone should just idle in #zbattle
!
When is the v2 coming out?
Good news… I started the server recovery tonight. All is going well… compiling a custom kernel as we speak.
Digital Master: Not for a while.
Hot damn, just in time when christmas break is just starting for me.
Keep up the good work!
Well…just got HSF2. And I must say, I am greatly pleased. Can you say SSF2 chars with Turbo speed! Now that I have gotten it, the following needs to transpire:
-
get my SNES controllers modified for PSX support or obtain an adapter that allows such to happen
-
get a cabinet
-
get Jesse’s adapter for his cabinet that allows console play on a cabinet
-
purchase a modded PS2 in addition with another HSF2
-
find a suitable & worthy arcade within the LA area (most likely UCLA or Camelot) and donate the cabinet
If I am successful in completing these 5 tasks (in no particular order of course), something new & interesting will take part for the first time ever. Pad guys will get the opportunity to play stick guys on EQUAL ground.
Some say it’s just a dream, I say it’s the future
Thats the best news I have heard all month!
How much longer til the server is up?
THanks for all of your hard work, Vee!
the server it self is up, but i’m running into some routing issues… hope to have them sorted out soon
Fine, so maybe zbattle is up sometime this christmas vacations.
Good work Veeb.
GameBattles
What is this you ask?
A ZSNES league. In this league, you can play a bunch of games for rank. SSF2, UMK3, KI, Tecmo Super Bowl, Mario Kart, and a few others as well. Many of the SF players on here are true experts, and probably have no competition on this site but yourselves, but none-the-less the site itself is quite large with everything else it hosts such as Counterstrike and SOCOM2 clans/leagues. It’s very proffesionally made and easy to understand. So if many of you experts come, the newer players will have someone to learn from. So jump on the bandwagon and go join up, kick some ass, train some newbs, and hope for ALOT more Street Fighter competition from this, as well as other games too. That is, if you’re man enough.
Hmm, this isn’t the first Zbattle League. There were Leagues before. And this will go down like all the others.
Many people would probably just join such a League if it were an official from Zbattle itsself.
I don’t know why everyone’s so surprised at strong play on a pad, but I’ve always been playing on a controller (never been good at sticks)
Anyway, some tips I use for pad :
First, I use the ball of my thumb instead of the tip. When going for DP on reaction, the most important thing for me to remember is to RELAX. I have developed a fast motion on P1 side and a slightly faster one on P2 side, so the main focus for me is to learn to rely solely on my reflexes. Letting go of defense is necessary. It may feel gutsy sometimes, but I’ve noticed if I try to do the DP too fast, I’ll botch the whole thing. It takes a little relaxation for me to move my thumb from down-back to toward, but once I get there, the DP usually comes out just in time.
Also, practice against the computer. There you can try all the risky stuff. Go for the DP everytime, even if you’re entirely too late. I try to perform the motion even if I’ve already been hit by the attack because it helps me to relax and makes me remember faster next time.
bleh, zbattle needs to get back up soon. this sucks. i need some ki comp, no one plays and very few are even decent enough for my tastes. where are you all!?!?!
Good game to mokura. This guy is very polite and he waited until I downloaded ROM. Your Dhalsim is insane man lol
Thanks D. But I only used Sim in one fight; I may not have fared that well after too long.
Will ZBattle ever be able to add multiplayer to DOOM, which could only have multuiplay via XBAND? That would be the shit, becase its damn near impossible to play The Ultimate Doom online with someone nowadays.
go play doom II instead. best of the series to date. and you can play online with like 12 other players. goto www.planetdoom.com and look in the news headlines
Mad thank for the link, SaBrE. Now, off to my local bargain bin for DOOM2, if I can find it. I was lucky enough to find The Ultimate Doom in perfect condition for $7. I just had to play “Thy Flesh Consumed” on Nightmare.
Have you ever tried KIAME/U64EMU? I cant get them damn thing to run KI at all.
Also, when ZBattle comes back up, anyone up for a beginning-to-end romp in Final Fight 2? I used to love doing those with a friend back when I was little.
