Fighting Games Weekly | February 4-10 | Majority vote declares Smash a fighting game

Bloody Roar > Super Turbo
Come at me, old people.

If we're talking 3 or Primal Fury/Xtreme then yes. 2 possibly. 1 maybe. And there isn't a Bloody Roar 4 because I've never heard of it. Nagi. Underboob. Period.

edit: they should release hyper street fighter alpha on XBLA/PSN. then the SFA2 fans can face the SFA3 fans with their respective versions. it would probably be broken as fuck

If that survey from a couple of months ago from Capcom could be taken for something then it might just be coming. They could just do HD Double Upper and add Kyosuke and I'd be good with that. But something along the lines of what they're doing with Darkstalkers would be great but choosing what versions of A2 & A3 to use would be a pain. The dream would be 1, 2, Z2A, 3, Double Upper & Hyper and call it a day.

It's been a minute since I've played HSFA but broken would depend on which version of A2 & A3 was the version those would be. A2 > A3 > A3DU > A2G

The nerf in A3DU for wiffed throws aint shit compared to 1.5 meters for an Alpha Counter in A2G.

The contest of who touches who in A2 or A3 first goes slightly to A2 because of how dirty Custom Combos are there versus V-ism in A3.

If Capcom does it, I'll buy it.

So, my cross tekken buddy Tizoc and myself are trying to create a new OT for SfxT, do you guys know if we need permission? If so, to who we should ask this permission?
 
90+ MINS OF UNREAL BLACK THINGS FEATURING A NEW CHARACTER!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5zKSRpv5js

Huh? New character?

If you're talking Hilda and Eltnum they've been in the game for a while now. 1.02 for Hilda and 1.03 (Current Revision) for Eltnum.

Still wondering why they just don't call Eltnum Sion
seeing as she's the same character from Melty Blood just a bit older.
May be some right issue or something with the name but not the character.

i HAVEN'T been following much info about the game sad to say, and I'm pretty sure most others haven't either~
Now I just need AKSYS or XSEED to release this on PSN, XBL and Steam and this'll be another great year for fgs~

Doesn't surprise me in the least. UNIB is an awesome game to watch and my hype for a release on something is just as high as The Rumble Fish and Shin Kohime Musou because of the possibility of a console release.

RF2 has the best chance this year coming out with something seeing as Dimps is still sitting on that revision for the game as of now.

SKM is the most slept on fighter currently. Game is beautiful and very technically sound and with the series being what it is that how a PC port of some kind hasn't happened as of yet is a mystery.

French-Bread releasing something on a console is a hope you should never have because if it was then we'd have some kind of MB Collection on something right now. Current Code 1.07 should be on PSN/XBLA at this point and why it isn't is a mystery. And I bought Carnival Phantasm so I'm not part of the problem at all.

The only other thing I could suggest watching out for is Phantom Breaker AC because that game needed an overhaul and maybe this is the way we get such. We'll see.

EDIT: And forgot about Arcana Heart 3: LOVE MAX!!!!! It'll be interesting to see how different that game becomes with the new stuff and balance changes coming to it.

I only watch baseball when the Cubs are doing well.

Therefore, I haven't watched baseball in 10 years. Damn you Steve Bartman.

Thinking about goin to EVO this year to spectate/attempt to set up casuals for a certain competitive puzzle game I pretend to represent. How much did you guys spend last year at EVO? What's your expected budget this year?
 
Cody and Guy had the infinites, Haggar was essentially bottom tier in that game

but he could still grab people, jump in the air, and fuckin' piledriver their ass, so IDK, maybe it evens out

I think this was actually covered in an earlier FGW thread. If I remember correctly, the (joke) tier list went like this:

S-Tier: Haggar (great health, stupid hitboxes, throws for days, DOUBLE LARIATOOOO), Guy (fast walking speed, good normals, infinite, good back throw)
D-Tier: Damnd (one of the few Dominican video game characters, loves strawberry sundaes and barbecue ribs, but kinda stereotypical)
Below-Damnd Tier: Cody (infinite hampered by shortest normals in the game, bad throws, only specialty is with one of the worst weapons in the game)

I may or may not have tweaked those last two >_>

Yea, where's Red Rapper?! That's fucked up man, c'mon!!

EDIT: put_redrapper_in_wb

dodged a bullet

This new Twitch Turbo thing seems like it is going to take a dump on streamers' chances to get subscribers. I kind of feel like streamers should probably start getting 100% of their sub fees if this is going to come into play, otherwise they may as well pull the button and just ask for donations.

I'd get the first two off JPN PSN...if I can find a JPN PSN card that doesn't cost more than its actually worth =_=

I remember using Viren, dude looked cool and he threw grenades/bombs at you~
Would really like this on console @_@

I don't remember this game, does it feature young girls is wacky ass clothes?

What I would give for at least an English PC release @3@
Props for getting Melty tho, who do you use? I'd use Nero personally.

EDIT: And forgot about Arcana Heart 3: LOVE MAX!!!!! It'll be interesting to see how different that game becomes with the new stuff and balance changes coming to it.

That isn't out yet? Thought it was out in Japan by now o_O
 
FGC-GAF I just wanna say it's really spooky sitting and waiting for my next class and seeing someone that I see on fighting game streams a bunch.

Also SFxT 2012 = baseball in terms of unhype and how there are only very rare occasions of hype.

Also lol at the FGC pictures.

Also, when's Marvel?

Since Melee is going to be at Evo, I think I'll take this chance to start posting awesome Melee matches. Every day. Possibly multiple times a day! ;)

The Road to Evo Day One: Magnificent Melee Matches

Ken (Marth) vs. PC Chris (Falco) | MLG Anaheim 2006: Grand Finals

Set 1 Match 1
Set 1 Match 2
Set 1 Match 3
Set 1 Match 4
Set 1 Match 5


Set 2 Match 1
Set 2 Match 2
Set 2 Match 3
Set 2 Match 4
Set 2 Match 5

One of the classic sets in Smash history. Marth vs. Falco. The best of the East Coast vs. the best of the West Coast. Close games. Crazy combos. Comebacks. This set had it all.

Safe to say this set (and the other MLG era match videos) got me into competitive Smash. They're worth a watch for anyone who wants to get a taste of what high level Melee is all about.

It's also hard to believe these sets are close to 7 years old. Of course, they're a bit slower than the average Melee set in 2013, but I think that's good for any FGC peeps who haven't been following Melee at all. The fundamentals these two players portray still stand the test of time, even though players' execution has got dramatically better over the years.

Disagree. I don't think people really subscribe just to avoid ads.

These matches literally got me into the idea and frame of mind of playing Smash competitively and really training. I'm definitely going to watch this again when I get home, I think it'll light the fire that I've been lacking for playing fighting games quite a bit.

That's good. One qualifier for the Northeast is not bad. I would of choose ECT because people would of had more time to plan.

Alot of people are already planning to be here for Winter Brawl, so I'm glad to see this happen.

Looks like Spooky is to thank behind this.

The twitter reactions to WB becoming a road to evo event is making me laugh. Not everyone over here cosigns on what triforce says although we can see where he maybe is coming from. Some of us just want to play though. Kinda silly to treat the whole coast as "those guys" idk maybe I'm reading in to it too much
