Street Fighter (SFIV, SSFIV, HDR)

I can swear I do that but thinking about it now, maybe sometimes I'm crouched down. It could be that, so when the first hit is in it leaves me open. Oh and sometimes it looks like a cross up, I block the other way and they infact land right in front of you =/ M

hehe yep! one of the advantages of cross ups is when they are done at the perfect distance, it's very hard to tell which side they are going to land :D
 
Sod :(

I still can't get more than 4 ranked wins in a row.

I was up to 4 and came up against a guy who set the match to 30 sec, 1 round.

Didn't notice and he beat me by the smallest margin by time out.

To top it off he sent a message saying "haha newb".. :rolleyes:
 
I just put input display on in training mode and christ these Sanwa buttons will get pressed practically by looking at them, they are extremely sensitive compared to the MadCatz.
 
You also shouldn't flick the Sanwa sticks to do a fireball etc or you'll get: D DF F B directional inputs :p

The entire Sanwa setup is designed for precise and delicate motions, hence the default square gate (without touching the edges) rather than riding an octagonal one.
 
Don't see the point in something like that at all, most the enjoyment from playing sf4 comes from learning more moves/combo's and adding them into your game.

On a good note, I played some online ranked games this morning for about an hour. I met an akuma player who was on 7300BP, beat him and took 128 points off him :D I'm almost at 3000BP now. :)

I'm not going to get that besides I don't think it would work anyway, personally I feel anyone using anything other than the ps3 pad is cheating :p

...yeah yeah I know

are you still getting a fightpad then? would be cool for a review

you know a review of the ps3 pad v the madcatz se v the madcatz fightpad
 
I've played so many turtlers today I've had to go off, christ I spent all my time today chasing people down, the most recent was a Zangief who I 3-0'd. (and for some reason he kept taunting me even though I was playing the match exactly how Balrog should)

Wish they'd remove Zangief from the game to be honest, the most mind numbing character to fight in the game.

Edit

Apparently championship mode has been finished! http://www.versuscity.net/2009/03/25/sf4-console-update/

Some Capcom SF IV announcement on April 17: http://www.andriasang.com/e/blogs/anoop/2009/04/10/sfiv_april_17_notice/

I try! This new Sanwa stick is throwing me off a little as it does feel pretty different and I've been doing tiger knees instead of the ultra so trying to get used to it again, I reckon I'm just doing the command too fast but I prefer to practice online. :p

Going online now for a bit, toodle-oo.

yeah i realised that most of the time where you f.hk me you did a tiger after instead of the ultra
 
Been having trouble all night. Only managed to play with Lucifurr becuase I sent him an invite.


Great games Plexman, they were really challenging :)

I wasn't able to play gainst anyone else today, doing search brought back a list of people with no bars on the connection quality. Plex and I also notice some people playing champion mode on Xbox Live and were wondering what that was.
