Street Fighter IV

damn, im done with this game. Yeah, it's to to hard I thought i was doing really well with Ryu. So i decided to try another player and see if i could master their moves. Well, as i was looking at the other players moves, like Zangie, Blankaf ,sagat or whom ever. I saw that many of their moves required me to pull a wizards hand out of my ass and spin the analog stick in a 360 degree motion two times and then press two other buttons simultaneously just to pull off a pretty move. Yeah, fuk that dude. and then i look and see double Z moves So i said fuk that because the game hardly responded to my half circles. I swear. As Ryu i do two half circles and press punch, but his special never occurs, well, maybe 40% of the time. 😂

Maybe the batteries in your controller are dyin'. That could be why it's not respondin' very well.

Shame really.

360 motions are not that hard to do in this game. You can do them coming from a jump, standing up; and you dont have to do 2 full 360s to get Zangief's SPD.

BTW Is this the first street fighter you have ever played?

Urghh, I can never get the charge moves/combos done. That's why I don't use Blanka that much even though he's my all time favorite. Or maybe the xbox 360 controller is gay.

For charge moves the joystick works 100% better than the lousy dpad. Shit it works better for everything. I will never understand why some people(friends of mine included) cant grasp the concept.

The thumbstick is better than the dpad but only because the dpad on the default 360 controller is a sack of shit.

heh.. even in soul calibur IV, I can only do Kilik's Ashura Dance Guard Break on the analog

So knew Daigo would rape Poongko.

What's this tourny? Where is it?

Got the link?

How is Championship Mode, anyway?

Ken vs Dhalsim

YouTube video

What I love about this video is how Ken managed to land the full ultra from a FlamingRyuKen > FADC. Its beautiful biscuits

Eventhough you need to use the heavy shoryuken and perform the fadc on a counter hit for it to land.

Yeah, i don't know man. I had to send the game back. It was just far to hard for me. I mean really, it was just annoying not being able to pull off simple moves. I expect the ultra moves to be insanely difficult but the simple power moves just wouldnt respond for me. Anytime i tried to execute Ryu's power move (two half circles and a punch) i was jumping all around the screen 😂

I played third strike and a few of the others all the time in arcade, but i suppose thats different. I'm not much of a fighter anymore, at least not the traditional type. I guess i'll stick with Fight night and UFC

half circles start from back > down-back > down > down-forward > forward..

Ryu's "Power Move" (both his ultra and his super) are two quarter circles forward ( down > down-forward > forward x2 + either 1 or 3 punches together).. and you can honestly do the motion combination fairly slow

the problem you'd have eventually, is that the moves are too easy to come out, and wind up getting mixed up with other stuff that you didnt want to do...

i.e. .. you go to use m.bisons ultra, and accidentally do a teleport and get your ass kicked in

I hate it when that happens... 😆

I can do most Super/Ultras just fine most of the time, but damn those double 360 moves (Zangief), can't do those for shit... I haven't done Zangief's Super/Ultra combo once... not once... shitty 360 controller...

honest question:
why do you guys like this game?
i'm not being sarcastic. i sincerely want to see why.

I keep trying to force myself to like it.. but its the most sluggish, pointless fighter from capcom to date.. like.. I cant describe why I feel that way.. maybe its because I cant freestyle the way I usually do?.. it seems like people who love dial-a-combos wind up being good at this game.. I hate combos, and I hate the cancelling crap

the base game is fun, but it loses its charm to me when the above starts coming into play

I like Street Fighter IV because it's a fun game. The soundtrack is good, and my favorite Capcom character (Sakura) is playable. I don't really care about the competitive scene since I'm a casual gamer, but I enjoy all the ways you can customize your characters.

It's not my favorite fighting game, but it's still good.

I like Focus Attacks. They can be quite useful and they are not broken like SF3's parries. I also like the SF2 feel it has....I dunno how to describe it. I also enjoy the hilarious look on character faces when they are about to get pawned. Plus as much as I hate Sagat the game is the closest thing to a balanced fighting game IMO.

.....and i'm hearing nothing new.
on the most base, most passe level its street fighter and like all street fighters its always playable, fun in a dumb unimaginative way and to quote Yahtzee, makes me cough lungs out eventually because of how repetitive and stale it gets after 15 minutes.
street fighter was, is and always will be a "meh" game (aside from SF3) and like "meh" games the "mehness" can only be tolerable if you're with your friends or playing online but on its own, minus the gimmicks etc, its what it's always been: stale and boring and unimaginative...and horribly repetitive.

this like never before shows how the McD effect takes place. this game is getting good reviews. GOOD reviews. i'd give it 6 for being yet another stale sorry excuse for an upgrade that makes all the slap-happy fanboys shit themselves and actually believe that its a new game. its not a new game. new game has new elements. new games have different stages and new characters (that don't suck or at least aren't rehashes and ripoffs). new games doesn't consist of mainly the same cast. new games don't bring the same moves back again and agian and again. new games, if they are so phucking lazy, at least marginally update their characters' movelists. new games bring new specials.
i can stretch myself to give it a 7 for SF2 nostalgia but i wont because that's nothing new at all because its not that the nostalgia ever left. its like watching Ric Flair retire, comeback, retire, comeback, retire, get a good "phuck off already" from HBK and comeback again so that the next time he stands in the ring and says he's gonna leave someone from the crowd is going to run in and slap him for lying on christmas.
as for customization: 😐

P.S. the graphics suck and the game feels like your character is fighting in an aquirium of piss and floating around. the physics of this game sucks worse than the redhead ho in my avatar.

Thats actually a old tournament that has been help annually and it involves a number of games between street fighter soul calibur..And much more i think its held in california, but im not sure though..Daigo was the reining champion if i remember correctly..His character is Ryu.. Now going back to the actual topoc which is SF4..well it is incredibly hard to actually win..Not to meantion getting all the characters and so on.. The game feels like slow.. And the Gameplay is very much repetitive..Nothin much to say

exactly. not to mention shitty "floating in water" physics that it has. am i the only person who got that feeling? 😕

Sado: Frankly, you think DOA and MKvsDC were good games. So I don't see why we should bother trying to explain the appeal of this game to you.

You're not an SF fan, and your comments show that you don't even like the series. You have no concept of tournament play or high level game mechanics. And insulting the game physics? Just because you can't play it or because you dislike the style? Get out. No, seriously, get out of the thread.

Street Fighter does not cater to gamers like you. It's not made for the majority of the market or people looking for a gimmicky fighter. It's a balanced fighting game with depth, intelligent design and limits, enormous replay value, and pure nostalgia factor thrown in for good measure.

SF4 has all of that and more. It's the Twenty-First century version of Street Fighter 2, the most balanced fighting game of all time. The way it all fits and works together, from the characters, to the gameplay, to the music, to the stages, even to the voice acting (original japanese only for that last one, as I despise dub)............it's brilliant.

But you're not looking for that. You want cheap gamebreakers, gimmicks, jiggle physics, overpowered characters and improperly made game mechanics.

So please, do us all a favor, and shut the **** up, and get the **** out. doped
