In case you want to gear up and buy the updated Tournament Edition S stick, here's a link:

http://store.gameshark.com/listCategori ... PerPage=50

If you type in SUPERPAX you get 20%, bringing the price to $119.99. Not a bad price for the new revision of the stick, especially considering it's probably the best on the market.

Merk you were saying that to learn Ibuki I should play 3S. Apparently, like many of the 3S characters, the way she plays and "feels" is significantly changed. But who knows, Justin Wong is a over exaggerating fatty.

I think I will like the change since apparently everyone says she plays like a mix between Akuma and Viper. I love her cross-up/wake-up vortex options with the kunais. She and Juri will likely be my alternates besides Akuma.

Here's Dudley for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfNzqW_l ... re=related

crazy cross ups

[Merk]

Dang, if Ibuki can dash through characters who've been knocked down then she'd be really good against charge characters.

Not that charge characters are particularly good in SF4 anyway.

[Riot]

Merkmang, I agree. I want to play Ibuki, Adon, and Juri on top of Akuma. I hope that we can spar and I can learn the intricacies of these new additions to the cast. I look forward to our future duels, and hope that we can one day recreate the experience of playing each other 100 times in a row.

Sincerely,

Riot Underwood

I want to be as good and precise as Lord of Ultima. He is a really good Akuma player. Look at his frigg'n accuracy with the timing on his repeated FADCs over and over and over.

Merk, here are some pros showing why Dudley is good with detailed combos and play info, among other characters and more if you look at the other related "game night" videos.

Riot you want to play some 3S tonight?

I was going to call Chad to hang out but it's going to storm like a bitch here and now I am on the fence.

EDIT: I will be watching the game tonight with Chad though. Game starts at 9:20 so I'm available til like 8:30 tonight if you want to play.

I can try just give me the files and I can sort it out and see if it works again. I am literally poop at 3S but it will help to brush up on the mechanics if there's gonna be some playing at DAT.

good new music on seth's stage too

here's a good interview with seth killian about ssf4, and even the future of the vs. games and 3rd strike http://www.gametrailers.com/video/seth- ... reet/64177

buy ssf4 on amazon and get $10 off another videogame credit, plus you get a free costume pack for some characters when you pre-order from amazon. not a bad deal at all!

Some info about team battles, which I'm most excited about:

• You can press a button while in team battle to record the match you're watching.

• You can play 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, or even 1v2/1v3/1v4 if you're confident.

• If you thought a match was pretty boring at first and you didn't start recording it -- don't worry because the system keeps track of everything and even if you start recording late, it will pick up the entire match for you.

• Match replays will also offer statistics like how much move a damage did in addition to input displays.

• Players have the ability to become broadcasters and invite you to a room for viewing matches and such. The broadcaster can then narrate the match as you watch it.

• Team Battle will keep looking for players to fill slots so that you can keep going, as long as the slots aren't set to private. You don't have to keep re-creating rooms.


I want to hear Merk go into players' matches and narrate them in typical deprecating Merky fashion.

Also, reviews are starting to come in and it's been getting consistent 9's. woo woo! I'm excited, I just hope other people are excited (clearly not since I'm the only one spamming this thread), but I want to play with you guys and fight new rivals together!

Ken looks like an idiot. But here you go Chad, looks like Ken is going to be able to combo his Ultra off a few lp links. Looks really good:

Almost a week left!

A lot of the new character themes are out, and they are actually pretty good! A lot more funky electronic influence this time.
