It wouldn't be a surprise to have a fighting game as a launch game for the new PS, TTT2 was for the WiiU, why not TxSf

Ono and Harada... two people who I think make terrible games. =P

I'm really glad Winter Brawl is going to be on the weekend where I get off work early on Sundays. It'll be nice to catch most of the finals for that day.

That's right fuck Tekken.
Alright Jaxel I don't want you banned.

Whatever happen to Odashima? I haven't heard about him for a long time now.
Only if you wanna play one of the finest Fighting Games of this gen.

How does the netcode hold up for it?
Well just imagine that the online mode is just a glitch. =/

Really bad. Seeing as I don't have KoF in my avatar I'll give you the objective opinion that while not "one of the finest of this generation" kof13 is pretty good and even with bad netcode it's a steal at $15. Definitely a fun combo/training mode game if you're into that type of stuff.
Also what does TAS mean!

I never do.
Bottom tier trash. It makes Marvel look playable.

If the netcode really is bad, I'll probably pass on it. Most of my friends who I play local multiplayer with suck more at fighters than I do, so online most of the time is my primary multiplayer outlet for the genre.

Tool assisted speedrun. Using emulator features like savestates and advancing the game frame by frame to get perfect execution for speedruns or combo videos.

Destiny reveal, HTC phone reveal, and winter brawl.
You could teach your friends how to play KOF. If not, then I would pass on it unless you enjoy playing the CPU or doing trials. I'm glad I got it for free on PS+
He still comes through to the big SCV events in Japan, but hasn't said much in a long time. Maybe soon he'll stop being a ghost.

So, my 17" laptop that I use for streaming tends to run hot after a little while. Any advice as to what I should be looking for in a cooling pad (or alternative solution you might have in mind)? I'd prefer something that does NOT draw power through USB; I don't think I have USB ports to spare.

Elevate it away from the surface so the fans have room to breathe. Find a way to give it legs...I used to do it with Legos lol

I've got jury duty on Wednesday. Frack.
This generation is the first time ever that Soulcalibur has outsold Tekken over the same time period.
What if I said the N64 sucked?
Lol I remember people going ham on you when you said that on stream (myself included)

Then you would be at the risk of stating the obvious.
In all regions or just the US? I tried to like it for a little while, but no bugger would play it with me.

I was hoping that vid was the animated series, TAS. Heh.
SCV not returning to EVO even though it out-pulled MK9 made me sad.

Did SCV numbers decline after EVO? MK9 didn't have a great EVO 2012 turn out, but they have a pretty dedicated group of players, at least that's what I always hear. I guess SCV numbers dwindled down and they lack a strong dedicated scene?
Soulcalibur numbers haven't really changed from previous iterations. During the Soulcalibur 2 days, SC2 always had one of the highest turnouts at NEC year after year, averaging anywhere between 50-80 people. Now its SC5, and we are averaging 50-80 people. So nothing much has changed.
The difference is that we didn't get that GIANT boost of players that Capcom players got when SF4 came out. SC5 had 500 people last EVO, MK9 had 250 people. The difference is that Namco isn't sponsoring SC5 at events, while Netherealm and Warner Brothers are sponsoring MK9 at events. Not having SC5 at EVO is a huge mistake if you ask me though. Last year the Japanese rolled something like 40 people deep JUST for Soulcalibur.
Instead they put in SFxT, which nobody cares about. How many extra people will they get to come to EVO because SFxT is there? How many people play SFxT that don't already play SSF4 or UMvC3? I'm going to say at most, 3 people. However, most people who play Soulcalibur ONLY play Soulcalibur. So rather than get 200-300 extra people to come to EVO just for Soulcalibur, they opted to get 3.

I tried teaching them how to play P4A and that didn't even click with them.
they're doomed.

Aside from a handful of games, I'd agree.

I think NeoGAF Member Anth0ny might be the main person to disagree with you, but he also legitimately likes Sonic 06 so his taste is skewed.
I think he said N64, not PS1.
Badmouthing N64 is like my personal bat-signal in the sky lol
Someone else likes that game? I think I have a new best friend

When I saw what my friends had to play with on the N64, I decided to get into PC gaming.

Did I just enter bizarro-FGC-GAF where people like Sonic 06 and Jaxel actually has an account?
Namco just doesn't Monet hats SC as much as Capcom money hats SFxT.
When's Street Fighter X Tekken

Every Nintendo console since the SNES has kinda sucked.
