    The official Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown thread

    Actually, we do have an Akira player, Machinehead. Another player, og23 (Vanessa main, mostly), can use both Akira and Goh, and yet another, whose gamertag escapes me, plays Goh and Kage. I also play Goh, but I'm feeling Pai in my bones at the moment. It's just a shame they couldn't make it...

    The direct translation's probably somewhat accurate. It's probably that the translation doesn't account for source material 'quirks'. A similar issue happened in the subs for Blazblue: Alter Memory, where the translators hopelessly butchered Hakumen's mantra. The rushed release schedule and...

    It won't be Emo AC Cloud. We'll get classic Zack-ish Cloud. They won't be turning down the Compilation, though. Be it through DLC, in-game bosses, little bits of added in-game lore, they will not miss a chance to grab literally EVERYONE and get them on board. Now, for the biggest question...

    It is. I think we're going to mostly see expansions on the parts connected to the other pieces of the Compilation. Fingers crossed that we're getting Genesis, Weiss, and possibly the Remnants as bonus bosses.

    You have good taste. I dabbled in Vanessa and learned Goh. They're extremely fun to use.

    Bit of necromancy here, but way up here in Toronto, we've built our scene up enough and gotten vocal enough that we have had our first Weekly Ranked Tournament! We also had a ranked DOA tournament, but we couldn't get stream time. Anyways, GGs to everyone! Hope to see you all next week.

    So the MC has a Devil Trigger?! This could be fun.

    I'm on the edge here. If they can confirm the return of the entire voice cast for both English and Japanese, cool. If it's not a direct port of VII's gameplay, even better. Maybe incorporate the battlefield movement from the XIII series into the turn-based gameplay from VII, while perhaps...

    They would. Square wants all the gil they can get.

    Super Smash Bros. Thread

    Picked up all 3. Lucas is pretty much how I remember him from Brawl. I still like him more than Ness. Roy is now the Luigi to Marth's Mario. Loving it. Ryu is now probably my favorite character to play as. I'm still rather pissed off the DLC characters don't have variations.

    Super Smash Bros. Thread

    Small edit. Ryu's final smash is Ultra Combo Duo. Essentially, enemy close = Shin Shoryuken, enemy far = Shinkuu Hadoken. I'm looking forward to seeing if they'll alter Roy's animations to deviate him more from Marth. I don't have high hopes, but it'd be nice since we already have Lucina...

    Soul Calibur Thread

    Similar wardrobe selection. Similar hairstyles. Same exact voice, English or Japanese. Raphael says Viola reminds him of someone. Amy is missing in SC5, not dead. Yep. 100% completely different characters.

    Mortal Kombat thread.

    Gotta admit, she's a much more interesting character when she starts interacting with the whole cast. That said, does Mileena just try to bang everyone? I mean, the way she says "Dearest Tanya" in their intros is a little suggestive. Just a little. Never mind the everything else. Watch from...

    Started watching a couple short shows. I Can't Understand What My Husband's Saying is so much fun packed into little 3 minute episodes. Probably because of Yukari Tamura and Kenichi Suzumura as the leads. Ninja Slayer From Animation... I can't even. It's just too silly. I love it.

    System Bad habit or good strategy?: “Respect” in fighting games

    DOA crushes aren't always safe, but that kind of defeats the point of them. Momiji's 8P is -11 on block, but it's an instant high crush at 15 frames, so I'll use it in situations that people are likely to throw highs at me (R1F, jab punishing my low-negative string enders). I won't just throw it...

    System Bad habit or good strategy?: “Respect” in fighting games

    Abare is 100% legit, especially when you implement crushes. Straight up button mashing is stupid.

    I'm just going to go ahead and say it: I think FFXVI needs to have a high fantasy setting. Ever since VI, we've been seeing science and Magitek overriding the old days of castles, swords, and sorcery. While it's not a bad thing per se, it's kind of boring seeing swords beat guns in an FF game...

    Tanya looks pretty cool. If I had the game, I'd probably be trying out Pyromancer or Naginata. Dat Pogo stance brutality.
