You guys are talking a lot about blue meth and megaman, so I thought I'd tease you with this UFGT10 trophy image.

Gonna be late with this, but:

E3 will be insane across the board. I predict the most radical E3 in the last decade.

It's so damn weird for me to realize that we're nearly 3 weeks to E3 total and I feel like so much of it is up in the air. I don't know anything of note that is rumored to be present besides obvious stuff like Halo & Smash.

It's especially jarring since I'm on GAF of all places.

E3 was pretty great last year just because of how explosive Sony was.

I'm only really looking forward to Nintendo's conference at the moment. If Uncharted/stuff like Uncharted is the big stuff that Sony has to offer, then eh, and I'll see about Microsoft. Don't have the money or disposable income to get an Xbone so really, if I do bite on one, it won't be for a few years.

Smash hype alone makes this Nintendo conference pretty big for me personally. Beyond that though, I don't know what to expect with regards to the actual presentations @ E3.

I'd also love some updates on some smaller PS4 stuff (Rime especially). A Guilty Gear Xrd mention would be great as well.
 
I saw Justin, Noel, and RayRay there yesterday. Did any other US players make the trip?
Kbrad is here as well

Went 3-2.. Well technically 2-2, I got a bye because Rebelo wasn't there yet.

Basically the guy I beat first round I had to play again, and he really adapted to the Deejay cheesyness.

Then fought a Rose and well.. Cr.Mp by Rose > Deejay.
 
E3 hasn't been very exciting for me for a few years.
A lot of that is cause I'm a Nintendo fan, but I got more excited about the other companies in years like 2009 when I still cared a lot about Final Fantasy and The Last Guardian was still a thing.
Last year wasn't exciting for me because while PS4 was announced at a good price, there was 1 game I wanted to play and then they have multiplayer behind a paywall.
I'm really excited for PS3's upcoming lineup, but of course that's not gonna get much focus.

I'm not all that excited about Super Smash Bros either, so Nintendo'll likely disappoint.
 
Decapre looks pretty fun.
What happened to the early June tease stuff?

Wait, or is that just when E3 is?

Man 2014 is going by fast.

It is a week before E3, so if they reveal it before the press conferences I'm assuming we will get some gameplay or what not on the show floor.
 
I hate to ask this here, but is the fightstick thread named something that you wouldn't expect? I can't seem to find it, and I had a question to ask about a potential purchase. Sorry if I am missing something completely obvious.
 
who made this?

I know I'm making something out of not much here, but I find it more interesting that Storm is in the kitchen making the food....

Is she known for her hunger? Or did the artist just not want to deal with the huge creative possibilities that she presents? Or did he just think she needs to be in the kitchen away from others.

That is a kitchen right?

Yeah that sounds like a good option a lot of companies opt for.

Has a bit of a funky name, but is still google-able. Super "NeoGAF Arcade Stick Thread" II TURBO.
 
Would have too many characters, not enough focus. That was one of the problems with DMC4. And really difficult to market as well... right now Capcom probably wants to distant themselves from DmC a bit.

I think it could work. You could narrow it down to the 2-3 characters who actually matter on each side along with the greater force opposing both. And one would hope that the mission structure/environments/enemies are designed with both characters' styles and abilities in mind. Now, it would be hard to to market, unless they did some serious alterations to bring both art styles closer together.
The thing about the PR as of late is that they clearly are doing something or planning to. No clue as to what, though.

Kinda hope they might follow up on this angle:

And is there no other thread where we could discuss this? I'd hate to fill up FGW with my only tangentially-related ramblings. Though, no one seems to mind. lol

So to put this back on topic....Street Fighter is hard, maaaaaaannnnnnn.
 
E3? You mean the Beast Souls show?

I believe square enix hinted at kh3 and FFXV being there.
Anything that isn't pokemon that is in the remote realm of japanese and rpg, is now irrelevant. To me anyways.

After the shit Disney done acquired I am watching that shit like a hawk.

Not fond of blond edipus complex . Just would rather a nero dante game personaly just go into where nero comes from more.

Ontopic, yeah man.

Sometimes its qcf sometimes its qcb sometimes you gotta jump sometimes you gotta do a whole circle, how they expect me to remember all this.
 
I don't drink alcohol or soda often but I eat food like a fat man trapped in a moderately overweight body.

I used to be in really good shape but I decided that ice cream was better for me than running ten miles a day.

I love ice cream but every time I eat it I feel like I've committed a sin and must run a mile for salvation.

I can't even eat much anymore as I am getting older my metabolism just slows like a mother trucker and it's hard to even finish a lot of meals.
 
Big E announced a big pot bonus for USF4 for NEC.

@TFCtournament: I know it's 6 months away but we at BigE Gaming would like to add $3000 to the ULTRA Street Fighter pot at Nec 15. Way more to come.

Also is the color messed up on the Finger Cramp stream?
 
Went 3-2. Lost to chirithy and noel. Noel countered my chun with rufus right away. Beat his rufus then lost in close rounds to his vega

My brother would put on his running clothes and run about 3 miles to Fenton's Ice Cream in Oakland. He called it the Fenton Run.

Coffee, beer, tea, bit of wine and the occasional gin & tonic for me. Dropped soda/sweet drinks a decade ago and dropped 15 lbs the first month. Stuff tastes too sweet for me now. Bitter > Sweet.
 
I like a healthy balance between sweet and bitter myself. I can't part with some things but I've been doing better about reaching equilibrium. I just need to get more active is all.
 
I've pretty much eliminated soda from my system. I'm not against drinking it if there's nothing else available, but all I drink is orange juice now. Now soda tastes like shit to me, and I'll never get tired of OJ.
