Yeah, 360, because the PS3 doesn't have shit until 'The Last Guardian' comes out. I don't see how it matters what console I have it on, though. Doesn't change it's game play.

Thats not what I meant,I was just wondering what system you bought it for.Do you have online?


Ah, no, I don't have online. I'm not about the online play thing at all. I rather play face-to-face. Plus, I've been told it's full of Jin and Noel's. I don't really play it too much right now, anyway. I'm still enthralled by GG2O to really bother.

Yeah its really awful that he has zero mobility,but I'm pretty used to rocking Gief in SF so hes pretty easy to use for me.Do you play 3rd strike at all?I bought the aniversary collection the other day and was thinking about practicing on that before heading on to GGPO.Is it a hard game to learn?

It's actually quite a bit different than other SF games in general, it can be slightly difficult to learn but at the same time you don't really need to learn all the mechanics to actually be good at it. Really, learn to parry, parrying is the best thing ever. If you get really good at it then you can use that to open up a lot of offense for yourself. It's all just finding a character you're comfortable with and going for the gusto.

pirate you're wrong
i dont remember what its called but that green slash thing that tager has moves him little by little across the screen while not letting him be stunned or tripped, i play Nu and my sword spamming wont touch him when he's like that, if they try to hop over you do that jumping elbow drop or air grabs, then just combo it up taking full advantage of his magnetism thing.

noel is tough is you cant get away from her, her ranged attacks suck and for me as a Nu player i have a great advantage so long as she doesnt get close, with tager you're in-game is so much stronger than anyone elses ('cept maybe hakumen) practice bro, practice! lol


JIn is the most annoying character in any fighting game ever(minus the obvious ones in MVC2, Sagat in SF4 and some MK characters) his combos are so easy to master because they give you so much time in between freezing your opponent.

I was going to play Jin, because obviously, he looks like Ky, but slowly I just ended up saying, "Eh..this guy is too gay for me." Wow, and Sin apparently isn't, with his tube top..but I digress.

I haven't played BB enough to learn anything great. I have basic little shit things I do, but my joystick is being upgraded, so all I have is my pad...and I don't like using it, so I haven't touched the game anymore. Doesn't bother me too much. The game plays a lot like King of Fighters, I've noticed, so I won't have too many problems in learning it more so, if I even plan on doing that, derp. I wasted my money D;< oh, well, if it gets another GG to come out, it was worth the...wait, how much was it? $60? Fuck, I don't remember, lol. I could have bought some gay doujinshi ;( which reminds me that I have a BB doujin with Noel and Litchi, lol.

I have a friend who mods sticks, so it's cheap for me. I bought a cheap Hori and he's modded the crap out of it. Arakune sorta plays like Zappa in the fact that he has objects that get thrown out (insects), like the Ghost that Zappa gets. Arakune has a move where he 'curses' and insects come out. Eventually the screen is just full of insects and it's just like, lolwut. He's a cheap, broken character, dare I say more broken then Eddie, and that's why I play him. He seems to have a lot of crossover moves, also, but I haven't played enough to really get the full feel of him.

This is the worst game ever. At least, the most annoying one.

Plumbers don't wear ties, for the 3DO

My money is on Kartia. God, that game was horrible, "I'M GONNA USE MY WATER KARTIA TO MAKE SOME TEA!" Yeah, you go do that, fag. Silverload was pretty shit, also, because..nothing happens.

That game reminds me of all the Hentai/Porn games that Japan released for the SNES, lol.

I really don't know. I know if you modded the PS1, it'd die within months or even weeks. I'll ask a friend about it, and get back to you.
