MATtheHAT Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 I was wondering how sucessfull this venture was for you, as i've ordered the game for pc (i've only got a wii) and am looking for a decent control option. TBH I have not got round to it yet. I have the pad and the neccessary tools for the job, just CBA. Besides, I have been practising with the PS3 controller on SSF2THDR.: peace:
DuD Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 I can't find a usb pad to strip the necessary parts out of. Only just realised i'm gonna be waiting forever for the pc version (should have seen that coming), so im playing capcom vs snk 2 on the gamecubes tiny little dpad to help with the wait. Might just crack out champion edition on my mega drive. The official mega drive pads rocked for street fighter, i had a 3rd party pad with the x y and z buttons yet still prefered the official one with the press start to swap between punches and kicks. The d-pad was simply brilliant.
Jav_NE Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 I feel sorry for anyone having to use the 360 controller. It's awful for SFIV. PS3 is the way to go if you're not buying a special pad. In fact it's pursuaded me not to invest in one of those Saturn type controllers because i've just gotten so used to it. I can use the stick and the D-pad and it feels good (though i mainly use the stick now).
Dan_Dare Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 yeah but my pad will have Ken on 360 for me though so yeah. No mercy- essential purchase for me. I love SFII HDR but not being able to pull of a goddamn dragon punch on demand is like I'm playing with a hand behind my back.
Goron_3 Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 yeah but my pad will have Ken on 360 for me though so yeah. No mercy- essential purchase for me. I love SFII HDR but not being able to pull of a goddamn dragon punch on demand is like I'm playing with a hand behind my back. Possibly the most beautiful thing, ever?
Dan_Dare Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 It's pretty sweet ay. The Akuma one is really ace but I think it's only in America.
Mike Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 I'm getting on all right with the 360 controller now; it's just a case of getting used to it. I have gravitated away from the d-pad and towards the analogue stick now, though, which makes most of the special moves easier.
Pit-Jr Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Here are the preliminary sales of new game titles released last Thursday in Japan, including Mario & Luigi RPG 3 and Street Fighter IV: 1. Mario & Luigi RPG 3 (NDS, Nintendo) - 291,000 2. Street Fighter IV (PS3, Capcom) - 79,000 3. Street Fighter IV (360, Capcom) - 37,000 4. Mobile Suit Gundam: Giren no Yabou - Axis no Kyoui (PS2, Namco Bandai) - 36,000 5. Mobile Suit Gundam: Giren no Yabou - Axis no Kyoui (PSP, Namco Bandai) - 32,000 Those numbers are a bit underwhelming....
Jav_NE Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 They prefer playing at the arcade i guess :p And they bum RPG's so, to be fair, its not bad at all.
Dan_Dare Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 If I made a new game and sold 116,000 copies in a week I'd be pretty pleased... edit: Joystiq also reported Capcom sold out of stock in a day or something.
McPhee Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 I'm not ordering a fight pad til pay day, low on funds and i want to see how i get on with the 360 pad first. It's not a decision i wanted to make, but until my "mates" pay me back the £150 they're owed me i'm more than a little stuffed for cash
Shorty Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 My order of the special edition just shipped =O by TNT 24 hour delivery. Guess I know what I'm doing tomorrow! assuming it doesn't arrive during the 2½ hours I'm at Uni >.<
ReZourceman Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 My order of the special edition just shipped =O by TNT 24 hour delivery. Guess I know what I'm doing tomorrow! assuming it doesn't arrive during the 2½ hours I'm at Uni >.< Word. Assuming that Claires sister has woken up. She has a tendancy to sleep when my parcels come. Of course I'll only be able to play it when I get home anyway but still. And in fact I just realised Im going out. But yeah apart from all that. Shopto ftw.
Jav_NE Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 I'm having withdrawal symtpoms today. I've played it every day for the last like, 3 weeks, and now i cant play until tonight. I... must... fight!
Babooo Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Loving the ken pad too guys.....can't wait to get mine through the post! But as someone mentioned before, I doubt I'll have it on release day as I've heard nothing from Amazon (where I ordered it). Anyways, I do wanna try and get used to the 360 controller if possible....i doubt all my mates will have spare fightpads to use lol.
Dan_Dare Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 if you check your amazon receipt the estimated dispatch is the 19th. Mine is 1st class so I'll definitely get it this weekend. in the mean time I suppose I should tell Shorty now I'm going to be stealing his copy.
MATtheHAT Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Shopto ftw. QFT. Any PS3 owners getting the game tomorrow?
Jav_NE Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 I've got it on PS3. My PSN is JavidSangra (i know, boring using my real name, but meh). I guess we need an online thread for this at some point. Don't want to play people that are too good though :p
Dyson Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Fffuuuuuuu... I'm gonna call shopto. Can't change delivery address on the website. Edit: No such luck. Card is registered to home address so they can't send it to uni for security reasons. Guess I'm waiting til Game.co.uk send it out..probably tomorrow. *fingers crossed*

Don't want to play people that are too good though :p Added you: peace: I thought I was good at Street Fighter, until I got consistently owned on SSF2THDR online.
Happenstance Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Ive got mine preordered for PS3 aswell, I needs me some Street Fighter now though!
Jav_NE Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Added you: peace: I thought I was good at Street Fighter, until I got consistently owned on SSF2THDR online. I'll be happy if i win one in ten! I'm undecided if that will be for rounds or matches. It could very well be rounds :p
Domstercool Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 My 360 CE just posted today, WOO! Will be here tomorrow as it's gone with TNT, woo woo woo, WOO WOOO WOOO FUCKING WOOO!! WOO WO WO!!
ReZourceman Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 I'm actually not exactly very good* at SF, so this should be quite funny when I play onlinelolololol. *shit
Dyson Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 I'm actually not exactly very good* at SF, so this should be quite funny when I play onlinelolololol. *shit ...on your 360 or PS3?
