Am I the only one who thinks that "non-command parries" are detrimental to a fg
I much prefer the white-block mechanic as found in GG, BB etc. It makes for a much more attack oriented game, while still leaving options for the defender. Rite?
I will never understand why 3s have to have this polarizing view of their game as the best thing since sliced bread.
As an incredibly biased 3s player myself, I like what the parry does for the game. I wouldn't want it in other games, but it works for 3s.
damn that marvel video was sick, anotak. I only wish you didn't have the yt time limit so you could've put a few more of the crazy famous ones. Splitting up the amir bbhood finale was perfect =)
Makes me sad to think that I may never fast fly again after February.

i too have noticed this. mainly during NEC in the cabinet/3S room like a group of 5 just explaining amongst each other a laundry list of "whats wrong" with other fighter games from SF4, to GG, to MVC2, to allllllll the way to Jackie Chan and every other game :p. no1 told me no parry = bad game D:
can go to CVS2 if you want yo parry fix too yo edit: went to try out the other games on GGPO i normally wouldn't.not really sure y 98 is so much more preferred than the other versions. i myself much preferred 02. and windjammers needs a remake with 2v2 mode. sick
i meant to include the very end of the brett vs phocus money match and one or two other small clips but i couldn't because of video file format issues and premiere not wanting to read them
There seems to be decent SSF4AE footage these days, what with Chinatown Fair direct feed, WC matches, Japanese shakycam footage, etc. Apparently the Taiwanese are playing too:
never really played continuously at arcades until recently with AE at university pinball. sucks some of the machines (3s mainly) uses shitty/un-responsive american sticks :/ (which is hopefully going to change next week for a tournament)
can't really complain about a dollar a game since not every arcade has AE. enjoying using the twins, and i really appreciate the ken buffs. has some of the ryu combos, with a nice faster sweep. yang's s.jab is pretty retarded, hits even on crouchers and links c.mk rekkas etc. most this stuff the ppl who follow ssf4 have heard/known already
also 1 dollar a game really makes me curious how much money the japanese players who constantly play have paid in their lifetime to the arcades.
So, MvC3 is looking nice but I've never been a fan of "Tag-Team" fighting games and looks like I'm all out of luck, every single game coming out has a tag team mechanic in it; MvC3, TTT2 and even MK9!!!
But I will take tag-teams over 1 frame links and justframes any day :p
Also regarding Mortal Kombat I am so hyped for this game, I am going to pre-order the Tournament edition of the game that comes with a very good looking stick with the MK layout. I just can't see myself playing MK with my TE hopefully it is as good as it looks.
Arcana Heart 3 is awesome. Infinitely more fun than SSF4. Also, the netcode is amazing. I was playing a guy in socal and thought he was on the east coast.
I'm gonna try to play on the Team Spooky AH3 stream as often as I can. I don't even know the last time I've had this much fun playing an FG.
