    Was talking to some people about the crazy 6 player X-men arcade cab they used to have in town on Wednesday.

    Here's a vid about it- man, the it was huge!



    One thing they don't mention is that the two players on the far ends sticks were at a 90 degree angle and it felt really hard to control them.

    So I'll be in Japan next week guys. If you'd like me to pick up ps3 copies while I'm there, bring the money to casuals tomorrow and I'll transport them home.

    Just to clarify, I didn't mean that post to sound so bitter. Any time I get to win against a pro player online it's awesome, but then I always get told "YOU'RE NOT GOOD IT WAS ONLINE, SCRUUUBBBZZR" You should go to Cannes with us this time and show 'em what you're made of, Ladno.

    You looked at it wrong :confused:

    A win online is legit, like a FT5 5:0 pack it up

    Ladno would get bopped because Sagat.

    Oh. also they can see that you're holding down 2 buttons.:pac:

    Ladno was actually in Cannes the year before, where team SaiLaDoom actually did ok and got to play team Japan after getting 2 OCVs on our way.

    Everyone just remembers Italian Sim though :(

    I laughed hard at this yesterday because as soon as Doom was about to come out I knew what was going to happen.

    Glorious unmeatied food dive. Like complaining about getting hit by wake up SRK when the opponent has 4 bars. Your own fault!

    SRKs don't hit you off screen, can be canceled into flight and done again e.g (S>F>S)then dash cancelled for mad advantage, kill you starting from full health, cover you in a body bag of hitbox, or Cross you up.


    FD is the best aerial attack ever

    I see what you mean though:pac:

    Yeah, but srk can't be completely shut down by doing a very simple meaty which is the situation that this particularly braindead fooddive happened.

    I see what you mean though :P


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Ladies and Gentlemen, a fucking master class in how not to commentate. Makes my blood boil to see someone ridiculing new players on stream.

    Don't be silly, that's just american humor.

    Don't think this was posted (mock and shame if wrong), but an interesting documentary on the Smash Bros competitive scene (First of 9 parts - all available on: https://www.youtube.com/user/EastPointPictures?feature=watch - remastered version coming November 26th though mainly audio changes)

    🤪

    That's a really great documentary, despite the time investment.

    I knew nothing about US Smash before watching it, and now I feel like an expert on their history. Job done. 10/10

    Terrifying

    I showed that ad to a friend in work who doesn't play fighting games and he messaged me back saying he had to buy one.

    I was disappointed by the fact that at the Xbox One tour the sticks they had were just standard TE's with KI artwork and not these super ultra LED ones.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,239 ✭✭✭UberPrinny_Baal


    I haven't watched any raw unedited casual FG matches since the death of Excellent Adventures.

    But I stuck on Ultrachen's "Almost Adaquate Adventures" while I was making dinner yesterday, and they seem to be having a blast just playing Hyper Fighting. Now I'm really hyp-.... er... excited to play it!

    They drop some interesting trivia on the mechanics as they play, versus the ones more commonly known in ST / SF4.



    This is what was called Champion Edition on the Megadrive right?

    Back before the 4 Devas had actual animations, half the moves in the game aren't there, and Vega goes up on dat fence.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,063 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Special Champion Edition on the Mega Drive yeah.

    They weren't allowed to have Hyper Fighting/Turbo on the Mega Drive due to Capcom's deal with Nintendo, so they just changed the name.

    HF is the best version of SFII imo.

    Beyond my initial plays on World Warrior machines, and Rainbow edition cabs, "Special Champion edition" on the Megadrive is where I learned to play SF2. I don't believe I've ever played it in the arcade or emulated. We should do casuals!

    It's actually directly why I bought a stick in this gen.

    "If I'm going to back into fighting games, I don't want to erode my thumbskin away again."

    Because the Megadive d-pad was like a vegetable peeler for human flesh. I probably didn't have a left thumbprint for that summer...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,063 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Mega Drive/Saturn d-pad is one of the best ever for fighting games. Up there with the SNES.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,239 ✭✭✭UberPrinny_Baal


    Doesn't mean it's not painful.

    Sure Doom and I only got about 4 or 5 matches of SNES SF casuals at that Thomas house thing a while back; before we both gave up our spots due to sore thumbs.

    Regardless of what the best d-pad is, I think sticks are way more comfortable.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Owwmykneecap


    It's a damn shame 4 face buttons became standard over 6.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,239 ✭✭✭UberPrinny_Baal


    I found Doom's favourite match video of all time.
