Goron_3 Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 You don't have to wreck your fingers when you play Tekken though, which to SF players is part of the fun apparently. Street Fighter IV is being considering right now as one of the best 2d fighters ever made, which pretty much makes it one of the best multiplayer games ever. Seriously, with gaurenteed online competition with this game for years to come, get it!
Columnar Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 My game and controller are 'dispatching soon' from Amazon GUTTED - thought maybe they had forgotten to update their page and I would get it today. I'm starting to think I won't get it until Saturday now which would be crushingly disappointing. Hurry up Amazon you bitches the anticipation is killing me!!!
Hero-of-Time Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Well it seems GAME have let me down. My Megadrive Collection has arrived but Street Fighter didn't
Happenstance Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Well it seems GAME have let me down. My Megadrive Collection has arrived but Street Fighter didn't My post hasnt arrived yet but you've got me worried now that I just didnt have any! Scratch that, mines here
Shorty Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I really don't understand why you guys didn't order from Shopto :p they have a guarantee to get you things by launch day, where they give you £3 if they don't make it to your door by the street date. So they go out of their way to get it to your early so they'll never owe you. So does anyone understand how to do something like this in challenges: > Jump H Kick > H Kick > Medium Shoryuken > EX Focus Attack I've tried going straight from the HK to the M shoryuken but it misses, so I tried going from the HK to EX focus by holding it down as the attack starts, then cancelling the focus and going into M shoryuken, but that doesnt work either. I don't understand >.< I can't pull off those ultra moves, been trying for a while in training mode now :| Can some one tell me how to do it with a specific character? when it says 'punch punch punch' what it actually means is 3 punches at once. I've mapped HP+MP+LP to left trigger so for me, Ken's Ultra attack is D,DF,F, D,DF,F, LT
Funktion Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Yep just a bonus disk with no case, just a plastic sleeve. So to re-cap. £30 for 6 page manual of info thats in the game. "Bonus disk" in a sleeve (the kind of thing they give away with newspapers) 2 crappy quality figures. Then I'm returning the limited edition. They advertised a HD copy of the anime (heck, most stores advertised the inclusion of a soundtrack, which is gone from the European edition), if it's just a regular dvd it's certainly spitting on the face of European customers. Lets see: the US gets a cheaper edition, with better overall packaging and it includes a bonus Blu-Ray disc, soundtrack, and a few other bonus items; the European edition adds a cheap looking figure, removes a soundtrack, a HD copy of the anime, a few of the bonus items (belt, ...) and is significantly more expensive. Why do they keep doing crap like this?
DiemetriX Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Thanks I'm able to do it now ^^ Playing as Zangief is a real treat Grab, Fokus, Grab, fokus, Grab, fokus, WIN!
Hero-of-Time Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 SCORE! It just arrived via Parcel Force, I forgot when I preordered it my order was over £100 so it gets delivered with them as its next day. Guess I will finish up on Streets of Rage and then slam this bad boy in

No matter how fast i do it, the Hadoken is always blocked. I dont get it. I cant do it any faster!
MATtheHAT Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Still havn't figured out how to get Gouken, but i think i know how now. Just got to try it tonight. If you want to know, just let me know and I will put it here in spoiler tags.

Portlett Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 yay mine arrived today from play would you believe it, I was pretty shocked as play are usually pretty rubbish. I ordered it about a month ago though so maybe thats why. The game is awesome though!!

Mixing in charge attacks to be followed by a super that requuires charge, and thats' after you jump in and perform a hard punch for followed by a medium. If you do it enough though, it becomes second nature trust me Just that your thumbs are truly hurting the next day. But you have to do that in sequence. Try entering in commands before the previous animation is over. Although if you are using the 360 pad, then I can't help you Seriously, it's hard enough doing this on the Ps3 pad.
Pit-Jr Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 With my preorder still in limbo until Friday , i decided to go pick this up the old fashioned way...at a store. I convinced a friend at work to buy my pending copy. Anyway, on to the game..... All i can say is WOW. 5 minutes into the game and im hooked. The presentation is gorgeous, the controls are air-tight and the online component is smooth as silk. Im on a wireless connection and out of, say 30 matches, i experienced only one laggy match (which i won courtesy of said lag) I made the mistake of diving straight into network battles and got my ass handed to me about 10 times in a row but im slowly picking up some wins and have around 500 battle points so far. So addictive......
Jav_NE Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 If you want to know, just let me know and I will put it here in spoiler tags. Yeah it will be good to see how you got him. Every detail; who you useds, what difficulty, how many Perfects and how many Ultra Finnishes. That seems to be the key.
Shorty Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Anyone else thing Abel is the most annoying opponent in the whole game? >.<
Pit-Jr Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Anyone else thing Abel is the most annoying opponent in the whole game? >.< Id give that dubious honor to Blanka, with Akuma a close 2nd
S.C.G Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Nah Seth is easily the most annoying he's basically a cheap character that just copies the moves of the better characters in the game. :/
ReZourceman Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Tried doing Sakura vs Seth on Easy last night, and got so fucking frustrated. About 20 attempts. Switched the Ken and did it second time. Loading times are a bit crap IMO. About 20 seconds.
The Bard Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 This game is pretty bad motherfucking ass, but it is sooooo different from 3 it's insane. Loving it so far though. Hoping to see some of you fools online over the weekend
Goron_3 Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Got this earlier and omg it's SOOOOO good Absolutely love it! A friend came over and we had about 30 odd games, finally score was around 16-15 to me..good ol' Sagat Also Crimson viper or whatever her name is..so so fit.
Dan_Dare Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 This game is pretty bad motherfucking ass, but it is sooooo different from 3 it's insane. Loving it so far though. Hoping to see some of you fools online over the weekend bring it muthfukkaaah:bouncy:
Pantsu Man! Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Why does Chun Li have so many moves... It pretty much a button bashing fest when I was playing as her earlier. Tried the Trail things earlier. I've got two left with Ryu to do but it's impossible. Jump and H kick to Crouch and H punch to Hadouken to EX M Punch + Kick. ... ¬_¬
Goron_3 Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Argh stupid Mad Catz! Looks like they've completely under supplied the SFIV fightpads across Europe and according to Play they'll be no new stock until June....JUNE!!!! Grahh not impressed.
Hero-of-Time Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Woooo! Got me a 13 win streak on XBL this afternoon, just player matches but I was well chuffed
