Ashley Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Had to be posted. This game buzz has got me waxing nostalgic. Hopefully I'll get a chance to play when I visit Sheffield.
Dyson Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Got two of them, they're 4-gate instead of the usual 8-gate, but work fucking perfectly for fighters. 4 gate? That's odd. Must have a weird feel to it, then? Hmm.
MATtheHAT Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Thats 50% of the Trophies got! But I just know I aint getting the platinum. Some of the Gold ones like 'The Gold Standard' (earn gold medals in all challenges) are so difficult they border on impossible. And defeating Gouken on the hardest difficulty is going to take a while. Also, fought a Jap who played Cammy wearing the DLC costume.........Mint!
Jav_NE Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I still suck in online ranked matches Hovering around 300 points now, still winning 1 in 3/4 as an average. Ah well. Must be playing hard people, that's my excuse :p I was training with Chunners the other day on hardest CPU. Won like 80 per cent of the time in 50 fights (yeh, i was bored), so i cant be that bad. Online opponents are just so different, by the time i've gotten used to their style it's the third round and i lose. Pah.
BlueStar Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Grrr, knew I should have bought that Hori stick from Amazon at £39.99 before I went out for a drink. Came back and they've all been snapped up to be sold on ebay for £75 each.
Deathjam Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 When it comes to online play, I generally use the first round the analyse my opponent, and come up with a game plan to absolutely smash them, should I win the first round. If I lose that round, it's all part of the gameplan. Really annoying though when you realise you are up against someone who is just gonna rip you to shreds like yesterday. There was this guy who was using ryu and he was kicking the crap out of me with his cross-up play. Could just not block it.
Jav_NE Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I should hopefully be getting one of the £70 official fight sticks, and one or two of the pads (prob PS3). Be happy to sell them on, i dont like them :p Not sure about the stick either, i'll give it a go.
The Bard Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 This is awesome, looks like people are finally getting properly into SF =D. I'm really loving getting the hang of Akuma. So many more combo opportunities compared to the other shotos, seeing as you can combo either his light, or EX Tetsumaki into a heavy shoryuken. Only problem is not being able to combo into his super or ultra moves, but other than that, he's turning into my favourite character, since they kinda screwed Ken in this game.

The only problem with it is that with the 360 analogue sticks I often don't land the move. Shouldn't be a problem with Akuma's super move though.

Esequiel Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I want a pad or stick, just seen a stick go for £112 on eBay and been offered a pad for £60.
McPhee Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I know it seems like a stupid question, but can anyone else pull off Rose's Med Kick - Hard Reflect combo in the Trial? Every single time i try it the Med Kick pushes Dan out of range of the Hard Reflect. Doesn't seem to matter what i do, it misses by a pixel or two every single time It's wierd, had no problem pulling off the first 2 combo trials with anyone else i've tried... EDIT: lol

That is fucking hilarious! So true too I'm gonna be online inabit, challenge me peeps!
ReZourceman Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 OOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGGGLOOOLLOLOLOL. Theres moments on the internet that are genius. This is one of those times.
Deathjam Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 OMFGLMAO! THAT IS HILARIOUS! And so damn true. That move takes off a serious amount of hp. Got hit with it twice and i swear, half my hp was gone.
Shorty Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Lols, I love "is he close?" -> "no" -> "**** it" -> SHORYUKEN I really enjoy playing as Ken but it's bit disappointing to find everyone using him - might have to migrate
The-chosen-one Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 my most used characters are Ryu and Sagat i dont play much as Ken
McPhee Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 This game is sodding ridiculous some times. I really shouldn't play it when i'm tired, just broke my 360 controller in a rage fit after Seth got a PERFECT against me when i was trying to unlock Gouken. It's taken me all evening to get that far, i was on my 3rd attempt at 1 perfect, 3 ultras, no continues (couldn't get the perfects in, got hit by a light punch every time!). Made it right the way to the end and he goes completely nuts. Three Sonic Booms, followed by a teleport, a Shoryuken, a throw, another throw, a teleport, three more Sonic Booms (the last being an EX), that stupid move that freezes you in mid-air, a teleport away from me, teleport behind me, EX Shoryuken. Me = Dead without even making a single attack. It was basically a bloody cut-scene! The worst part? That was on Easiest. Capcom need to fix this broken pile of shite.
Dan_Dare Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 dude: Sagat. Jump in. HK. HP. HP. Jump away. repeat. Win.
McPhee Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 dude: Sagat. Jump in. HK. HP. HP. Jump away. repeat. Win. Was doing pretty much the same with Ryu, Jumping HK, HK, HK, Hard Sweep. Jump up, repeat. I just got tagged by a lucky light punch here and there. Tried again, this time Abel caught me through my flying kick. Wierdest thing i've ever seen, the kick landed but he didn't flinch at all, grabbed me out of the air and threw me across the arena I've given up, will get Gouken tomorrow.
Dyson Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 You know Capcom made an official statement on how to get to Gouken right? It was on Kotaku the other day, it's something like 1 perfect, 2 ultras and 5 first attacks. I'll see if I can find it. Right, here's the official word. 1. Complete Arcade Mode playing as Akuma and watch (not necessary to watch everything) an ending. 2. Then, unlock Gouken as an opponent, and defeat him. Necessary conditions to unlock Gouken as an opponent: - Play with any characters with which you watched the ending once (so play using a character you have already beaten the game with) - Do not continue at all. - Do not lose at all. Not even one round (easier if you only play 1-round matches) - Achieve certain number (or more) of "Perfect" rounds. The number of Perfect Win you need to achieve are: If you play on - 1 round match: 1 time or more - 3 round match: 2 times or more - 5 round match: 3 times or more - 7 round match: 4 times or more - Achieve certain number (or more) of Super Combo -OR- Ultra Combo Finishes. Super and Ultra finishes both count toward this number. The number of perfect win you need to achieve are: s If you play on - 1 round match: 3 times or more - 3 round match: 5 times or more - 5 round match: 7 times or more - 7 round match: 9 times or more - Achieve certain number (or more) of First Attack (this means you must score the first strike in a match—the screen gives you the "First Attack" message, and you can mostly do this without even noticing): The number of First Attack you need to achieve are: If you play on - 1 round match: 5 time or more - 3 round match: 10 times or more - 5 round match: 15 times or more - 7 round match: 20 times or more - Then Gouken will appear. Kick his butt to unlock him!
Shorty Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 I don't think that's meant to say 'perfect win' for the second list of numbers but still, it's interesting to know it took all those first strikes - must've done it without knowing Agreed with McPhee, Seth is a gamebreaking pile-o-crap.
DiemetriX Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 I didn't watch any endings. That's why I had trouble.
