    If that picture is true... goddamn... :shock:
  • That will be awesome, because game play need not adjustment :D
  • I wonder how many "points" this will cost me...
  • O-oh geez...

  • For some reason, I see comparison pictures as equal to vin diagrams. And I love vin diagrams.

    More please.

  • This stuff looks so good, aren't these like the original artworkses they used to pixilate? Probably not but still.
  • Street Flightier II rules.

    MY GOD! IT'S LIKE LOOKING AT THE FACE OF GOD!!!
  • I'm bringing it back. It's Street Fighter I guess. I played it alot when I was like 6 but I didn't know what I was doing. After I found Marvel vs. Capcom, I never really looked back. Well, I bought it for the PS3. I want to use Chun-Li but I can't do her hadoken well or her spinning bird kick. I mean, do I need an arcade stick?
  • You need practice. The dpad will work. I've seen people do some incredibly sick stuff using the playstation controller.
  • What about the 360 controller? I call it "daddy" because it's tempramental and rarely works.
  • I've been playing this for the last few days. While the sprites do look like that, SFII's low frame rate makes the animations look kind of weird. It only bothered me for the first few matches, though. After that you get used to it.

    The people online are all pretty good. (Except that, without exception, every person I've played who used Akuma was a total scrub that got trashed.) I've discovered that the only character I'm really good with is E. Honda, but it's okay because E. Honda is GOD.

    I mean, his jab torpedo goes through fireballs! You can't beat that!

    This is so very true. I think that most people who are using him now don't realize that he is no longer rigged to hell and back.
    I'm amazed at how much more balanced they've managed to make a game which I had previously though was pretty much perfect in terms of balance.

    P.S: The fake hadouken is
    Spoiler:
    SUPER COOL!

    True words. When I first popped it on, I was intensely bothered by the disconnect between the detailed sprites and the sparse frame animation. But as I kept playing, I just stopped noticing it all together. I think the actual drawings are a little over the top. . . way too many muscles that are way too well defined. But it's still an awesome experience.
  • I done did the GameSpot.com review. I like this game a whole lot. WHO WANTS SOME!??

    PS: You will beat me.
  • I'ma get this as soon as I can get the taste of Lips out of my mouth.








    :wink:
  • So I played a bit more. For me, it's easier to do the kikoken or spinning bird kick when I'm at the edge of the stage but I have difficulty doing it in the center. It's the charging that's messing me up because I can't seem to do it right. Is there a trick to it or is it just a motion I'll learn through playing?
  • Characters with charge specials baffle me. I can't charge and then go *left right left punch!* without throwing my controller. It just doesn't work with the pad.
  • Something feels off about the game control-wise to me. I just can't seem to pull off moves consistently with anyone. I remember playing SF2 and being able to toss out fireballs and dragon punches all day long. However, I keep failing attacks when I try to whip them out real fast. Anyway playing it did bring a smile to my face. Even if every time I tried to host a game it wouldn't connect.
  • Anyone who can explain the "trick" to doing the left/right/left/right+button specials on a d-pad would be most appreciated here too.
  • If your crouching, that action is a lot easier. Blanka and Guile had a similar move in SNK v. Capcom.
  • [quote="sad_genius"]Anyone who can explain the "trick" to doing the left/right/left/right+button specials on a d-pad would be most appreciated here too.
    You have to hold back for at least 1.5 (2 with lag) seconds for it to work.
    Like Joel said, crouching helps a lot too.
    You can still maintain a back charge by holding diagonal back.
  • Try throwing in a few extra punches if walking backwards becomes a problem. If your committed to an attack your sprite won't move back. This can lead to some pretty bitchin combos.
  • Did ANYONE buy this? I have it for both systems and REALLY want to play with somebody I know.
  • I bought it for the PS3...and it'd be a great chance to get to know each other? PSN name is the same as my forum name.
  • I don't have a mic yet.

    So I speak with my fisssssssssts!
  • Truly, that is how men communicate.
  • We should set up a night this weekend to all play -- all being whoever bought it.
  • Technically friday is the weekend dot dot dot
  • I have no idea why this is not out in Europe.
    Come on Capcom, (almost) free money!
  • Mitchy, I own this on the Xbox 360 and I play frequently.

    Challenge me at your own peril.

    Everyone playing this should check out the Capcom Unity blog entry
    detailing all of the gameplay changes made. It helps.
  • So I decided to pick this up, I am terrible but add me and you can kick my butt while I hit some buttons. My live account is amasher.

  • The headset port looks like an anus.
  • [quote="David D."]The headset port looks like an anus.

    In what way does that look like an anus?
  • Mostly in that it 100% looks like an anus.
  • Port, anus whats the difference.
  • [quote="exagenous"]Port, anus whats the difference.
    It's all the same to Dave
  • Some fit, some don't.

    I feel horrible. I'm either not as good at Street Fighter as I was when I was a kid, or I was terrible as a kid and I've been lying to myself for years. I haven't even beat arcade mode yet. I'm such a sham!
  • [quote="blank"]I haven't even beat arcade mode yet.
    As far as the arcade mode, it seems like the AI has been tweaked
    a bit. I've always had issues with characters like Blanka and E.
    Honda, but I was thrown for a loop when I found myself having to
    face T.Hawk nearly ten times before finally shoving a Shoryureppa
    in his gut.

    T. Hawk has been a consistent pain in my port.
  • T. Hawk and Deejay can go fuck off. They can fuck off together, and have fuck off babies. They can fuck off too.
  • T.Hawk and Deejay are the cheapest characters in arcade mode.
  • Has Anyone Beaten Akuma In Street Fighter HD? Because That Is Fuck Off Hard After Trying For an HOUR on Beginner Mode I Finally Had To Do The Chun Li Cheat That Is On Another Forum. And It Was Such A Fucking Stupid Cheat Because You Can Get A PERFECT With Chun Li Where He Just Butt Rapes Anyone Else.

    Well If Anyone Wants To Play On XBOX Live Just Invite My Forum Name.
  • No one's going to invite you because no one wants to hear you capitalize each word when you talk.
  • Anyway besides all your blatent hatred for me shaloop Akuma is still a bitch...
  • Its not the cheapness of the computer that gets me, its the fact that they perfectly execute every move they attempt. They never seem to do a forward jump instead of a hadoken because they over rotated like I have a tendency to do. The more I play the more I dislike the xbox controller.
