so... this is my first fighting game gaf.. and i'm sucking HARD... I get kicked from rooms because I suck so hard. I'm playin as V13 and Ragna, b/c those two are the ones that I can wrap my head around somewhat. I watched the DVDs but that stuff is for high level play... I still like the game, but damn... Its not even that I can't pull of the moves- i just have a hard time transitioning from blocking to attacking, etc. and I keep forgetting the moves (it doesnt help that I keep forgetting what the buttons mean- wtf is this D C A bull? why doesnt the game just list abxy?)
Another note- I'm playing on the SFIV gamepad- will this help me? I heard playing on a reg controller is no good, so for a fighting game virgin this was the cheap alternative I guess.)

I am a bit torn between playing BB with a stick or the PS3 pad - I've never become really comfortable with the arcade-stick, but all of my [ Guilty Gear -crazy ] friends play with a stick, and recommend it for 'hardcore gaming'. Should I just practice with the stick until I master it, or 'stick' to the more familiar pad?
Mind you, I'm babbling to myself rather than asking a genuine question, so I don't expect you to answer.

I;d be highly shocked if any BB sku made the top 10, we might find out how it ranked on the 360 or pS3 specific charts, but with all the big releases in recent weeks a 2D fighter not based on a Capcom propety has no chance.

The 360 analog stick worked pretty well for me on Street Fighter II.

that sounds great, especially that you can actually use the analog stick. i had the ps2 and xbox version of guilty gear and had a terrible with the xbox version, the analog stick wasnt an option and the xbox dpad was horrifically inaccurate in that game

Word.
Just as a rough estimate though, it seems like the initial shipments sold through very well. Is it safe to estimate 30k-40k?

He's low-mid, but not low. Now Bang and Tager are low. :lolakachan ningen said:
I played a really good Carl in player match today. I think they were japanese cause they set up the clap trap perfectly. There was literally nothing I could do except tech and burst. :lol

PS3 if you care about Remote Play via PSP
Otherwise, the consensus seems to be that they're pretty much identical.

er...um.....ahh screw it.... block and counter attack more?
aktham said:
Seems like most of the competition is on the PS3, not that it really matters.
The main incentive is whether or not you have any friends that will get it on one system over the other.
Anyone wanna play on the PS3? I have a good hour or so.

Remote play would only be good for watching replays. In fact...that's a pretty good idea!

yeah man since the arcade version hit the streets, we've been hearing Tager and Bang are bottom feeders for like ever. Personally though I say meh, all the characters are dangerous in the right hands. On that note V-13 is loli mecha sword spamming evil!

I've never had much success actually playing games with remote play, but you sir bring up a very interesting possibility I hadn't considered!
Volcynika said:Got to Hakumen on Score Attack and he is made of shenanigans! Grabbing me out of the air and all other lskdfklslf
The only shenanigans in Score Attack was the game making you beat people like Unlimited Rachel, Hakumen, and Nu just to fight a cheap bastard who is the only thing standing in your way to victory. =(
I've been playing Tager in ranked tonight...hit and miss, I guess. I still don't know much with him, but it's fun. I put a few Noel D spammers in their place, I never actually faced one before tonight but wow...they really do nothing but that. Also, Tager's 720? My god, some of the people I've faced tonight have raged so hard at that attack. I also just faced a Taokaka that did a barrier burst at the start of the round, why do people online seem do this so much?
Playing ranked can get grating after awhile, I'm up for any 360 player lobbies if any one is running one.

Like I'm telling everyone, I'm not on much this week (well usually just late night between 9-11 PM CST), due to lots of works, so don't think I just don't play
That's fine. I'm still awful.
Noel is the only character I'm half competent with because her combos are ridiculously easy. I would really like to learn to use Rachel though. She's just a ridiculously awesome character (especially in Story mode).
Man, I played another half dozen matches. Won once, lost like 5 times...but still having a lot of fun (actually almost beat a level 38 when I had an incredible streak). I'm still absolutely stunned at the netcode. I have yet to have a laggy match. Every match has felt as good as local play. I don't know how this is possible, but Arksys has pulled off the best fighter netcode out there.

I'm on the 360 version. Tag: A Real Puppet
There are a few of us!
Anyone else find the Dualshock works abnormally well in this game? I'm not much of a fighting guy by any means, but the Dualshock didn't quite feel adequate in Street Fighter. However, I feel like I'm not being held back by the controller at all in this. What I put into the controller is the move I get out of the game. No accidental jumps, no failed quarter circles. Maybe it's just me.

There's still a lot on the 360, even if the PS3 has the majority here. The more the merrier, either way.
TheExodu5 said:
It isn't just you. I've been using the 360 d-pad and control stick perfectly fine here.
Clearly there is some other kind of witchcraft going here aside from the amazing netcode. :lol
