Must go on PSN sometime. I'm hadoomken on it, I think (it's been that long).
Most of the players you encounter here would have experience in real life tournaments, so points are basically irrelevant to them, it's not like a K/d ratio or anything in an FPS but that doesn't mean you shouldn't enjoy SF however you like it.
XBL was just the default service because, honestly, it's a better service, less drops, and there's simply more people there.
If you decided to take it seriously and wanted to play PS3 pad on xbox there's a cheap converter some of the lads use. But again, if PS3 works for you, just go with it.
BTW if someone called azza asks you to play you say NO 0 -

If you're measuring player ability by the amount of online ranking points they have, you're doing it wrong.

Live is way more stable then PSN, you get what you pay for. Now before any fanboy rants start, Ive had a PS3 since early 2007 and never had any desire to get a 360 untill early 2010, none of the 360 exclusives interested me and I didnt want to pay to play online. Id been looking forward to Bayonetta since it was announced and was going to get it on PS3, but when I saw how horrendous the PS3 port was, I had to play it on 360. My mate gave me a launch model 20gb (the one with no HDMI) for free cause he was after getting a slim. Super came out a couple of months after Bayonetta, everyone on SRK was banging on about how much better live was then PSN so I said id give it a shot,and have never regretted it.
I played vanilla SF4 on PSN and whilst I liked it, its night and day compared to XBL. Also, seeing as every PS3 comes with wireless built in, a lot of PS3 owners play using a wireless connection which just makes a bad situation worse. I still prefer my PS3 for exclusives and 1 player games, but for online multiplayer, its XBL all the way.
Most people think the 360 controller is trash and the PS3s dual shock is better, but I play using a Mad Catz fight pad on 360 and a USB Sega Saturn controller on PS3. I haven't played on a stick since SF2 in the arcades, but I still need that 6 button layout, if your serious about the game you shouldn't let the controller that came free with the console hamper you.
Having said that, 2 of Ireland's top players actually play on 360 pads, god knows how but its a fact.
Guy, and points mean feck all, but seeing as you asked I had about 2200 in Super but haven't clocked up that many yet in AE.
BTW, you do have AE right ?, cause if ya dont, good luck finding somebody to play you in regular super or vanilla (actaully Hound loves Vanilla so I take that back :pac: ).
some really good info there pal!!
i think il look into gettin an xbox now...
and ye i have AE alright but can still be hard to find
any half decent players...How many pp have you got? I only play people with over 4000pp
as i say im not really one for points
and iv just set up a new acount with 0 pp
but on my old one i think the highest i got uo to was 3900ppI probably thought it was some random add or something. Had I known you were Irish I would have added you. I'm not the best. Lots of our better players are on xbox live.
Add me again. I'll accept this time
i didnt send it, we had a few games and when we were finished
i want lookin for your name to send friend invite and i couldnt se it
i was sick! im movin gaff this week so i wont be back on the PSN
untill saturday.. il send it then... there isnt lots of better players than you

PSN is full of scrubs unless you have some players added that are good, then you have to invite them for some endless or they invite you rather than playing randomers.
Yes I play competitively but havent won many tournaments in Ireland.
The best player in Ireland is up for grabs. You could be the best next month... Come to our tourneys and beast, simple!
i would probably be classed as one of them scrubs (i dont know)
who do you main with?? do you use stick ye?
were is that tourney on?0 -

Do you still have a wired PS2 controller ?
http://etokki.com/Xtokki360
Works perfect, totally lagless, Wolfkrone (best Viper player in the US and probably the best pad player in the world) uses it. Some of the bigger tournaments have wireless controllers banned, so a wired PS2 pad plus that converter and your sorted.
I use that converter for my yellow Namco stick and my PS2 Saturn pad, both work perfect 0 -

Tourney's are usually held once a month at least for SF and marvel.
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056617799
All the info about our tourneys is in the title post of the above thread i believe, not sure when the next inferno is going to be tho.
There are usually casual sessions organised 1-2 times a week at a place called the XGC on liffey street in Dublin city centre. Check this forum for threads about casuals, i think there should be a thread for casuals tomorrow.
thanks a lot man! that first link is really cool, iv never seen that before
and i only 10 mins drive from dublin city center so i think il pop in for a look..Do you still have a wired PS2 controller ?

im going to get that convertor, thanks again palWish someone told me that when I started playing with you bastards:D
haha i look forward to playing him so, always like playing people that are better than me...Playing Azza is a trial we must all go through.
Or maybe I should say trail.
As in Oregon Trail.
What I'm saying is Azza plays dry as fúck.
i dont really know someone playin dry as fook meansIf you're seirous about SF and want to play with the rest of us, I'd recommend investing into an Xbox, I was on PSN for a few months when I first came into the scene and I moved to Xbox and it was a pretty good decision.
ye im deffo going to get an xbox now..
there is a few differnt types is there? would i be ok gettin a second hand one?
(swappin for my PS3) or would i just be better off buyin new?
have to say this is a really great site, so thanks again lads!!
i tought i was the only SF sado out there 0 -

More or less it means an annoyingly defensive player, one who generally is very patient and won't budge from the far end of the screen.ye im deffo going to get an xbox now..

Depends really, there's a risk with buying second hand in the you could get one that's been banned from Xbox live. I don't know the ins and outs of it though.have to say this is a really great site, so thanks again lads!!

No, there's plenty of usUberPrinny_Baal wrote: »If you want some videos to tide you over, all of the Irish Fighting Game content is recorded and uploaded by Doctor Doom here: http://www.youtube.com/user/BrianVonDoom/videos
That's pretty much every tournament ever, as well as a few other bits and bobs.

Off topic, but: I pimped out the Evo Qualifier videos to pretty much everyone I know who has even the vaguest interest in fighting games.
Every comment I got back was some form of: "Wow, that SF4 final was the hypest thing ever! It's really great to see some Irish [Mortal Kombat/Marvel 3] (pick one). I haven't played SFxTekken but that game looks boring as hell."0 -

I'll echo the general sentiment that coming to casuals and tournaments will make you better.
I wouldn't worry too much about the kind of controller you use, ultimately whatever you're most comfortable with is the best controller.

ok thanks man, i think il stick to the PS pad cos thats what im most comfortable with..
BUT would it be a better idea to try get used to a stick? because isnt that
why all "big boys" use a stick how they can plink? isnt that a big part of SF?
thanks for the link, i just spent over an hour watchin them.. my eyes hurt :eek:Doctor DooM wrote: »More or less it means an annoyingly defensive player, one who generally is very patient and won't budge from the far end of the screen.
"""""""""" O ye that makes sence.. that would piss you off after a while...
