Extremely good Chun player named One-Handed Terror (so-named because his left hand is deformed - he moves the stick using his wrist and palm, no functional fingers afaik) teams up with Dogface for SF4 commentary of them playing. ****ing quality. (First series isn't great, more of an introduction to OHT, but if you haven't heard of him before it has a great story of his epic journey to placing at USA Nationals of Tekken Tag).

I also highly recommend the Chun tutorial videos on his channel even if you don't play her - watching **** like that from players like OHT is how all of us should be looking to improve.

Rofl I was just about to post that vid, damn you dreddy

Very good matches and an entertaining watch. heres the playlist

Funny guys, and OHT is a very good chunny player so if you like playing as chun take notes.

Would be great if we set up a team to play these guys

D4RK ONION

I was thinking the exact same thing, I think Ireland has enough talent to challange these guys. Bush, Azza, Newtype and Cobelcog could definitely take them I reckon!

Sisko

Ah yeah those lads would deffo take em , dogface is an average (by their standard) player. Hell I reckon I'd take dogface. OHT is very good however.

OHT's chun reminds me a lot of bushes chun actually. But hell I reckon a lot more of us than just our very top players would give them a nice game.

They're west coast US though so the lag would be horrible


**edit** and sure there would also be the timezone issue.

Timezones are little girls Sisko, real men do not sleep!

Ye I saw this. Sanford is destroying people lately. FADC is a great channel, it has tournament vids every week.

Shloer

Yeh I was watchin that there the other day and man he really goes nuts with the knuckle sparks. Andre hasn't a clue what to do. Sanford was destroying people as Sagat and then went Viper and has still been whipping them!

Part 2,featuring 100% more Bison!

But TUC inevitably loses

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKKJ3OJXOX4

Also for anyone interested there's a kumite with Mago on LordAborigines channel,I've only watched him play the three Dictator players so far (TUC,Headpress and Aki,who were all beaten relatively easily) and the final match which is just excellent.

Rico Save vs Andre. Both class acts, so precise. Great first and last rounds.

Shloer

The Grand Final from that set.

2 Sagat's but man amazing fight! Quality players.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyvXOusJIDE

This is some of the cleanest Akuma play I've ever seen. So nice to watch!

Sagat06

That 3rd round F*ck!!

Zapp Brannigan

And now that they've taken the RH loop out that match becomes so much harder for Akuma!

Ramza

Me and DarkTalant were talking bout the Japanese scene (among other things) and this popped up. I mentioned some machine that records matches and puts them on a DVD from the arcade machine. Check it

I was actually considering getting one of those new HD recorders for the vids but most of the decent ones require you to use them with a lap top so I'm not too hot on bringing one to XGC.

But if we do end up migrating some of the tournies away from XGC, it might be viable again.

I'm sure someone wouldn't mind loaning a laptop or some ****. Or would an external HHD work?

Nope, the device has a hard drive, it needs software off a laptop.

Whatever about sticks leaving a pc around in XGC is asking for it to be nicked, I think.

I'd say if people are playing on a machine close to it at times or people just are careful and don't leave it lying around then yeah, doubt it will get robbed like. I can see where you're coming from though

Sisko

Well we don't have access to PC's in XGC in the way that we'd need to do what you suggest.

Although I have a high...enough... end PC and I still wont risk recording with fraps. What I do is hook up my camera to my PC via S-video lead and then clone the display so it shows on my camera and pc, then record with my camera using it like a video machine.

I have an audio lead going into the camera too. So it gets sound fine. In fact, when I'm recording my ps3 gameplay (which means recording the screen) and still hook up the audio lead which helps.

It would be great if there was a type of cable splitter thing we could use to have the footage go to the TV and then plug into a camera at the same time, thus using it like a video machine. PPC at the lan party had something like this going.

Sisko

I agree, a lot of it'll depend on the venue and what type of monitor the games being played on (pc/flatscreen or an old TV)

For example I'd say theres a way I could actually plug my PS3 into my camera, then have a lead from my camera to a TV. But I've not tried that yet.

And that'd mean people would have to play looking at an old SD TV.

Theres a lot of options out there alright though.

Sisko

You should get your arse down to an event sometime man, look at darkonion coming from Clare

Yeah I'm into my video editing myself and have been meaning to bring my camera to events just to even capture the atmosphere a bit like Jim does with his stills, as well as help doom record a few matches.

I plan to make some sort of promotional vid for the irish fighting game community at some stage, just need to stop being so damn lazy.

If I can make it to france I'll deffo bring my camera to that too.

Only downside is you have no atmosphere/background sound recording or commentary unless you have people sitting with a seperate PC and recording with, say, Audacity while they commentate matches they are watching.

Nah if you use a mic you can set fraps to record the sound from that, so the movie would be the gameplay but the sound would be the button clicks/room noises/talking etc. I personally think that's very nice
