Rugal Bernstein vs. Ryu Hayabusa

I don't believe in roll-cancelling at all myself, sorry to say. Maybe it's fun, but I think it's cheap. And I win pretty much all the time.

Oh and I saw Cloud on last night quoting, that means he's replying for the sake of his ego now... especially since he said he wasn't replying to a non-canon character. I'm not sure I'll bother with it this time.

Hence why it's garbage. A system like that destroys the essential qualities of the game and removes the ability to combo or use the full extent of the gameplay. I should also mention that the gameplay on the cube version was buggy as hell. Since the xbox game is also EO, I believe it to be similarly afflicted.

Sad thing is while Shin Gouki deals a great ammount of damage he does take a lot of damage. =\

No fighting game can be played well on the GC, unless it's Smash Bros (if you really wanna consider that a fighter). The buttons on the GC just aren't positioned right for my taste.

The XB's fighting game compatabilities fare far better than the GC, IMO. It's just that for a time SNK was making alot of games only for the XB.

I agree. The Xbox 360's controller is better for fighting games than the GC's. Heck even the original Xbox's S controller is better. However they made very bad decisions with games like Capcom vs SNK 2 for the Xbox.

Yeah, but in the process they ruined the gameplay. It became too easy. I loved CvsSNK2 for the PS2, and I was willing to buy it again for the Xbox, but the controller layout ruined it for me.

Don't buy the XB version if it's not necessary, unless your an XB Live type of guy. This version will do nothing for you.

I'm an xbox live kind of guy, but I still didn't get it. That's just how bad they made it =(

Wow, It wasn't that bad of a game. Its was just FAR BETTER on the PS2.

My bitching is about the controller scheme.

What was your team?

Mine usually was Ken ratio 2, Terry & Kyo.

Other times it was Ryu & Ken ratio 2.

I had a few, but I usually just played with S. Gouki for the challenge, and to keep my fingers and reaction time fast...

And yeah I picked other characters as well, but usually first 2 times playing the game every day I picked those teams.

Who is your absolute favorite?

-Ryu Ken Chun Li

-Terry Kyo Iori

-Dan Yuri Sakura

-Yun Rock Kyoske

Those are my favorite and best teams.

Chun Li is always a solid choice...

I don't really like the CVS2 version of Chun Li, compared to her original SF versions.

She isn't quite as strong though... Origianal SF was just too cheap for anything though...

I use various combos of several characters, mostly on the SNK side. My best guys are Zaki, Geese, Rock, Terry, Iori, and Rugal. I can pretty almost anyone on the SNK side. Scary thing is, my brother plays Shin Gouki on A-groove, and he whups my ass if he can start a combo.

Chun-li is actually a pretty strong combo character. She's really fast and her triangle jump and heel drop kick can really disrupt a guy. But yeah, she's nowhere near as evil as she was in SF3.
