still demo version for the ps3.. when is the full version out?

edit: just found out release date for ps3 is aug13.. why release it 2weeks after xbox release

Kreeeee · 1 Aug 2009 at 23:46

Because you own an inferior console

At least you've had the demo for ages, we got our on game release day.

Been on this all afternoon, finally got some achievements on it. It's really tough online but it's such an enjoyable game! Can I ask what the difference is between pressing LB + RB to execute a super move is to using dpad + XY? Unless the XY combo is for a hyper move?

This is such a mess, had it crash a few times and when I've failed to join a game or a player left it boots me back to a screen that I can't do anything on so I have to reboot. Mine just locked up again after the loading screen and went to a black screen.

Can't believe this made it to release in this state, oh and whenever I try to join a ranked match it's very lucky if I manage to connect rather than get the message "Game is full blablabla"

Quick match often says no games can be found yet loads of them show up when searching for a custom game, it's also ridiculous how you join a lobby yet the host chooses not to start the game for ages so I have to go and find another game. (this happens in SF IV too but at least that has the ready status)

Wish I never bought it.

Err, no I've had it crash multiple times, I've read about this on the net and I've also seen it happen on Darksydephil's videos that I watched before buying it. (don't try and say it's my 360, which never crashes on other games)

Even when a player disconnects from the lobby you sometimes get booted back to a screen where all you can do is press A while the background of the main menu animates, of course nothing happens and all you can do is go back to the dashboard.

Player matches work fine, getting into a ranked match is a nightmare and even if you do in my experience most of the time the hosts don't even press A to start the game the stupid *****!

It's not bad behaviour, unless there's a new rule stating that you can't talk about the issues the XBLA version of this game has.

I like this game a lot! Me and a mate button smashed till our fingers hurt last night, no idea what was going on.

Fav characters are Hulk, Iron man and the muscley wrestler dude from Street fights (Russian one)

Your whinging is behaviour that shouldn't be encouraged

anyone getting this for the ps3?

Streeteh · 13 Aug 2009 at 22:20

Gonna see how it pans out in the bugs department, far too many complaints from the 360 release so want to see if the PS3 is the same. Tbh i'm still not done with SF4, wish everyone else wasn't too

Kreeeee · 13 Aug 2009 at 22:59

Still a huge number playing SFIV!

You will never really get a group of people on OcUK playing one game like the GRAW/Halo 2 days again if that's what you mean. CoD4.1 is the closest you'll get but even then there will be a bunch of fragmented groups.

Streeteh · 13 Aug 2009 at 23:03

Still a huge number yeah, but i want the OcUK community days back

as you say it'll never happen but the majority of the gooduns still play from time to time so it's ok i guess. I just miss the days where i could log on and it was guaranteed that Ojste, Margaret, Tony888, e36adz, Raniac or any other number of guys would be online. As you know the PS3 sucks for finding random games, i would happily pick it up for the 360 if my stick worked with it but there's no way i'd fork out more than the price of the game again so no stick, no point

Oh and, i suck these days too, lack of practice and the switching to stick in terms of skill never paid off (in terms of enjoyment it paid off ten fold however!) so i can't even get it for gloating purposes!

Kreeeee · 13 Aug 2009 at 23:08

Well at least you can play. I've been on 3G based internet since I've moved house so no online gaming for me. I need to find some muppets in Birmingham to own on Street Fighter

I'll be running a team based tournament once I get the internet back

Streeteh · 13 Aug 2009 at 23:10

PC i assume? I'll keep my eyes on the MM for a cheap copy, now i've been forced home (student loan dried up, still can't find a sodding job

) i've got the PC hooked up to the HDTV so it wouldn't be too dissimilar from playing on the PS3... i hope.

Rainiac · 17 Aug 2009 at 10:36

Anybody got this on ps3?
Just wondering if it is buggy as hell or if the online play is decent.
Really want to get this game for old times sake but if its really buggy I might not.

No, 360.
