My tag is in the sig. I'm horribly bad at this at the moment, but I'm willing to take on anyone, The Witch included. Had him on my friends list for a while, just to build up the skill here; the guy has 1,000 gamerpoints out of every fighting game on the 360. 200 from the arcade titles Beast!

I'll add people when I get a chance, look forward to seeing ye online. I'll be on from 7-10 Wednesday!!

Na. I think I could give Justin Wong a go. Not saying I could beat him, but I'd give him a fight.

LOL just thought I'd liven up the forum a bit. Wouldn't say I'm an amazing player, but I could hold my own with the best.

19 years of Streetfighter on and off. When I was 13-14 I played like 16 hours a day on the Snes, I was always trying to beat the game on 10 stars without losing a round. Not sure I ever managed, Vega always caught me for one.
I even play SF3 Alpha on my PC with the keyboard at work using mame.
For me SF4 is more like SF3... SF2 is a little harder in my eyes.

I'm not to hot with SF2THDremix. But the min I picked up 4 I got to grasps with it fairly quick.


I'm just using the 360 controller, reg old D pad I find fine for the likes of Ryu, and ken not so good for the Hondas, Blankas, backwards forwards moves.

that was me, then i bought Street Fighter III and an xbox and xbox live
BOY WAS I WRONG

Mr. K

The 360 pad isn't great, but I'm managing. I can't really afford any expensive fancy controllers right now, so it's gonna have to do! Just about managing the charge character's moves, I'd love to master Bison. His ultra combo is really impressive!

I'm suffering from a (left) thumb injury since last week, so it's even more difficult. Many would say "Take a break from games", but that just isn't an option. I...need to play! After unlocking Seth, I wanna play online more. There are plenty of wins to be had, haven't been beaten too badly yet.

I mean it If this guy can give Justin Wong a game, I'm going to see how the game should be played at a very very high level. I learned alot when playing TheWitch, and even if I lose 10-0 aginst him, I'll become a much better player. And if I win, then I know I'm also a great player. Win-win for me basically.

Going easy is disrespectful to you Jokes aside, I'm quite happy to spar with you if you just want to practice a few things.

Sounds good! Ill warn you im amazing. But not really. Im only used to ken so far as I want to at least get good with one character and once I know a few things ill branch out to different characters.

Good idea. However, if you are going to play with one of the shotos (Ryu, ken, Auma etc) then Ryu is actually stronger than Ken. He has better offensive and defensive capabilities.

I'm practicing with Dan at the moment. He's nowhere near as bad as people make him out! Focus > Ultra is so very nice!

BArra

anyone any tips for how to be defensive

i keep getting whooped online

watch the opponents move, dont be throwing random shoryukens,
if hes jumping up towards you then throw a shoryuken, or look for other 'anti air' moves, i.e down and High punch for the shotos.

counter fireballs with fireballs, jumps, focus it now and then.

at close range look for throws, if they do a move and you block it, you have a few frames to either perform a combo or just throw.

watch them ! then react. Watch their patterns aswell.

also look out for overhead attacks, you maybe pressing back and down to block but if ken/ryu jump slightly over you to the other side and kick then your block will break, in that case you need to quickly block on the other side, i.e hold forward as they jump over

I used to use Ryu all the time is SF2, But in SF3a I found Ken better just because of the extra hits with the dragon punch. Plus the range is much greater.
With SF4 I haven't decided yet. But have been using Ken a lot. Guile is a cool fighter, tricky one do get some of his larger combos in though.

lol just looking at my gamer card and it looks like my daughter has decided to dress up my avatar again. I'm like a drag queen in in!!! lol

TheWitch06 I added your friends request last night bud. Was watching a movie on my 360 when I got in last night so I wasn't gaming.

I won't be on my 360 till about 2 or 3am tonight. I'll be working til then if anyone wants a few games.
I think I'll try unluck a few fighters. Only played through the game once on hardest to see how hard it really was. With ken I needed to continue once to twice, I love the way people can challenge you when playing arcade mode.
The only thing is I can't seem to turn that option off, so going though the single player takes ages! lol

Press rb on the main menu and a sub-menu comes up to change this feature... Its great craic until your on a mission to get perfects etc to unlock characters and it throws you completely outta stride

Well the basic moves are the same. But the timing and pace is different. Sf2 is always a good place to start though.

For me SF4 is a lot like SF3 alpha.



Future.. no probs I'll give you a game when ever bud.

Had someone challenge me earlier while I was playing arcade mode, creamed them in the first round and they conveniently disconnected before the second:p

Have been playing it online for most of today and I have to say the standard of play is pretty damn good... Have had no disconnects apart from the above, and haven't played against many cheap players (have a feeling that I'm one myself, I rely on jumping heavys way too much!)
Get a bit sick of fighting Ryu or Ken though...

Love it to bits so far anyway, definitely in agreement with some of the 10/10 scores it received!
