    Cleared Juri's trials and all but one of Poisons with the limited time I had to play with it last night. So far the trials have been noticably easier than SF4. Tried a few of Hwoarang's also and didn't run into any bother which is great because execution ain't my strong point. Looking forward to properly sitting down with it after work.

    It's as if Capcom crept into my head and took out all the ludicrous things I wished Juri could do in Super and made them all possible. Jump cancel crouch fierce? By all means. Ground bounce with airborne jumping fierce? Fill your boots. Combo after senpusha, and sekku and Kaisen Dankairaku that travels along the ground and be combo'd into from pretty much anything? Monsieur, with these Rocher, you are really spoiling us.

    The way you can choose to hit in front or behind when hitting a falling opponent is sick. Risky as hell, but a sweet little addition to the move.

    Oh did they finally add the hitboxes at the back that should always have been there?

    Just been messing around with trials. Done all of Abel, Cammy and King's ones. Some of them were a real bitch and completely stupid that you'd never use in a game but whatever...

    Game seems pretty sweet, no icons though :(

    Also it doesn't seem like there are dizzies? (haven't been in training mode so not certain)

    No, no dizzies at all.

    Which makes me a happy Guile.

    Dizzies are archaic anyway. They introduced ultras to allow a comeback to a person getting beasted and then keep in a round ending feature like dizzies for the guy getting beasted :D.

    Mine hasn't arrived yet. I did get Mass effect 3 this morning though so....happy days :). Hopefully sfxt will arrive tomorrow.

    Dizzies aren't that bad in SFIV. Damage scaling is not reset.

    I think we figured that out when I was playing you.

    "Jesus, what a beat down. This game definitely doesn't have any dizzies, or we would have seen it there."

    Mine was from gamesnash.

    Had a few games online there, wow the sound is beyond awful. Never realised how dependent I was on sound for the timing of combos.

    Dizzies are great in SF4. Glad they're not in Gems though, the damage is far too high anyway.

    Played this for awhile today at Nutrient's. Am really liking it. The Tekken cast add a massive variety of playstyles to the game. Still some problems to be sorted out like missing sounds when playing online, but it's nothing a patch won't fix.

    Fergus being as predictable as ever with his character choice. :pac:
    GGs to Doyler.

    No sign of that blog post from Capcom anyways. On another note, if anyone gets bored of SFxT or sees a pre-owned copy about give me a shout. Thanks.

    The Tekken characters are turning out to be pretty fun to pick up. Last night I was using a Lili-Kuma team and making some decent damage combos (ggs Kuma). Gonna try out more Tekken chars at the weekend. Asuka trials were cool, so try her out more.

    Really impressed with the offline stuff, and it's a damn fun game. The online needs a fair bit of work. The sound is borked and it's seems a little less stable than SFIV online (which is pretty solid for me).

    Online needs a lot of work.

    So far, I'm really liking Asuka, bit bleh on Lili, might change her for someone else.

    Asuka deals so much damage but feels like a snail.

    Gonna have to get used to the Tekken strings, and get used to the fact that st.hk whiffs on crouch :pac:

    It's a really fun game though, I would recommend it.

    I'm really liking Jin, I like how they've made him fit an SF game. I love his Dudley on steroids command dash and you feel like a boss when you pull off the kazama combos.

    I don't feel I am anywhere near there with him but he'll be taking the place of easy mode Sagat when I am.

    Also Guile's alpha counter is boss- under pressure in block string? Mash that hp +hk! He's got no restriction on direction unlike other chars (I assume there were issues with people reversal booming by accident).

    Got it yesterday but didn't get much time to play because I forgot to update my delivery address :(

    Haven't played through the arcade but the offline stuff I have done is well implemented. The trials, missions etc. all seem to be good but we'll see how it feels later. Even the tutorial was good craic with some nice references in Dans little speechs.

    System it feels strange. The mix between chains and links is kinda odd but it seems to give a lot of freedom to the combo system. Although I'm not a fan of the fact that launcher seems to be the only way to end the chains (Maybe I've been doing something wrong?)

    Spent the most time with Chun thus far. She's able to combo into and jump cancel out of her b.MK, MK launcher which is a lot of fun and gives her some fun stuff to play around with.

    You can end a chain with an ex move but a not with a basic special.

    The online is fine imo. I prefer ****ty sound rather than input delay, can't stand input delay. I hope they do something with the sound without creating lag. Games mad fun

    I've been getting rollback when there's a really bad lag spike. It's like GGPO, almost.

    Nowhere in Belfast stocking it except HMV and they were out of stock for 360 as it appears they had a grand total of 3-4 copies for each system.

    What a bustling center of commerce. :pac:

    Yeah the jump arcs feel weird after SF4 all right.

    Maybe it's just in our heads, but I don't think so.
