Looks like the game is available at select retailers.

Hell, with SCV you could hardly tell sometimes.

But yea, a little more waiting is in order.

I think everybody is reading into the online lag way too much. The game hasn't officially launched yet so I bet the servers aren't exactly optimal and also the amount of people who are actually playing are very limited. There is no real gauge anybody can use until the official date. Also the guy saying it was lagging didn't even see the connection status.

Ehhh... It usually doesn't work that way. Pre-release, most fighters actually have superior netplay.

The longer the servers are active, the slower they get. This is seen very easily with SCV. You'll actually be looking at slower overall play in the coming months, guaranteed. I'm sure the pool of available players is making it difficult to gauge though.

We'll see he might have been playing with people downloading stuff or with crappy internet. There is also the chance it can be a weak online system. Only time will tell since no signal data was used on the post. Now if the game lags with full bars or near full that is a big problem. I won't judge until more info its brought up.

After checking everyone's profile, the people i've played came from Norway, Russia, United Kingdom, US, France, and Germany. I can understand why it was lagging now.
Also, i'm noticing that I can't connect to specific players through Throwdowns maybe due to connection issues while i'm in training mode.

So I called gameplay and they ran out already!! Aww I'm sad now, hope they get shipment today or tomorrow otherwise ill wait like everyone else. Kinda wish I didn't know about these stores selling games earlier. Just makes the wait feel longer.

Well, if you want to drive a little further there is a Gameplay in Marina Del Rey but they only have one copy left for Xbox 360. There is another Gameplay but I haven't checked it out yet.

In simple and rank match, there is no way of knowing your connection with your opponent. You will find out the how good the connection will be when you hover and select your character. You also have up to 20 seconds to pick and choose your character and stage.

Not completely sure about lobby match yet. Have to play more of it to let you know if a connection bar appears or not.

Arcade mode run.

Looks like the AI forgets to grab onto the cliff sometimes.
What.. No boss fight at the end of arcade mode? That's crappy and lame:confused:
Edit: They should call that costume unlock mode because there's no ending nor even a boss to fight at the end lol.

Oh fucking Christ. How could they leave that out?

Ugh, not looking forward to online.

That is ridiculous, how could they leave something that integral out? You better be able to back out of the character select if the connection is not up to par.

This can't be, i remember the facebook online photos to have bars between usernames and throw down challenges.

Having messed more time around with the lobby matches, a connection bar will appear on the left side of each player in the lobby room. It will also appear before the character screen appears.
