I can't believe that I didn't know that eps. 1 and 2 of Initial D 5th Stage was out.

Yes, it's yet another "fighting game of the year" award from yet another site. That said, I've always liked DToid, also they've put up a very interesting set of nominees. http://www.destructoid.com/the-nominees-for-destructoid-s-best-fighting-game-of-2012-240468.phtml EDIT: Can't actually...

Vanessa. But yes, give us DOA vs VF. I'd rather see them make-out.

You obviously haven't played enough fighting games. People tend to act like morons in any fighter online.

Since MadCatz is sponsoring the IPL, they'll probably come out with IPL branded pro-pads anyway. I mean, SBO already used the MLG version for SCV based on player recommendation (by EVO2k12 champ Shining Decopon).

Only on Capcom games and DOA5. Let's not propagate this myth any further shall we.

It's likely going to be on whatever system Capcom games will be run on.

Back on topic. Here's hoping that IPL doesn't do any of that "continuation rule" bullshit that MLG has been running.

Off topic but, Capcom was basically put in a no-win situation at that point.

Any "expansions" should be done SSFIV AE style, i.e. a $14 upgrade to the existing game with new content with the option for people who don't have the original to buy a stand alone disc version. Heck, even UMvC3 was supposed to be like this (but with only 6 characters instead of 12) until the...

5 is plenty. Tournament history shows that 4 top tier characters (10 distinct matchups) are enough to support a game in the tournament circuit for years. http://sonichurricane.com/?p=2930

Here's the thing, you can live on welfare checks for about a year. So, if you think that within that year, you can level and and get into the top echelons of the top played FGs and hopefully do something amazing (e.g. Filipino Champ beating Daigo in SFIV at SCR in 2009) so that you can get...

The game begins at the character select screen. That's been part of "competitive fighting games 101" since forever.

I know a player who: Quit his job Took advantage of welfare Started playing fighting games full time Beat the Beast Got sponsored Got his own house with a couple of other players Went around NorCal winning small tournaments to make up to $2000 a weekend Won EVO Sadly, not everyone can do this.

9/10

As I've been trying to point out by using Seth's old Dom 101 article, it was an obvious "WIN" button that was at a different level compared to stuff like fly-cancels, tri-dashes, etc.

It doesn't change the rules when it's those exact same rules (the game's code) that allows them the first place. The fact that you seem to subscribe to some nebulous arbitrary set of rules only labels you as a scrub. To quote from Sirlin's book: EDIT: Quick excerpts from former EVO founder...

Because it's only a problem for scrubs like you. Besides, even as far back as the late '90s, they've already been able to fix stuff and release updated versions of games. Even then however, the FGC would just reject revisions of games if they didn't like them (e.g. Alpha 2 over Alpha 2 Gold...

If the game's code allows it (even via a loophole, aka a glitch), then based on the game's code, it is fair.

Wherein you'll immediately get DQed and, if you continue to do so, get laughed at by the rest of the FGC (not that they aren't already).
