imo when it comes to comics, DC > Marvel

Eeeeeeehhhhhh

Nah

 

[Professor Beef]

It's about damn time Gene from God Hand made it into one of their fighting games.

he'd be in a better game, for one

 

[oneida]

Eeeeeeehhhhhh

Nah

marvel hasn't been outstanding since the 80's
while DC hasn't been outstanding since the 90's

 

[KidA Seven]

I had to put a stop to that game war in the evo thread.

 

[Lulubop]

What was the name of that Zero player from Texas who was supposed to be 'the one', before Flocker became the one?

 

[Sixfortyfive]

Aliens certainly didn't age as well as the original movie IMO, but I'm not sure if that's entirely its fault. It exhibits some groan-worthy 80s action movie cliches, but I don't think they were nearly as beaten into the ground at that point.

Hmm?

One of the characters in FV looked pretty similar.

To you or in general?

Cuz Marvel has been having fantastic comics since the 2000s. 90s may have been their weakest era, but all other eras had notable stories and comics published.

Hell 2000s DC had great comics too and I'm not talking about their Vertigo line.

 

[Lulubop]

Mihe! Yea, that's it.

War implies there were attacks from multiple sides.

The scene where Ripley first meets the marines there's this really stock-sounding military drumroll that plays throughout the entire sequence, dunno if that seemed cool back then but man that sounds corny now.

 

[Parallax Scroll]

Xtreme 90s Marvel gave us Cable and Deadpool so it's good imo

 

[mbpm1]

Aliens is okay. Had some good lines though.

I feel that with some exceptions (Bendis' Ultimate Spidey, the AMAZING Uncanny X-Force from a few years back) Marvel has generally not been fulfilling for a long time. There's good stuff, there's funny and entertaining stuff, but nothing of lasting value IMO.

 

[Shackzam]

got slammed on RT
I'd like to see it myself as a fan of the franchise, but I'm not expecting much

If you like terminator in general then you'll probably like the film. Definitely a better replacement for 3 and salvation.

I see what you mean. A lot of stories are good but are they truly amazing?

F-Word, maybe?

i'm guessing that he will get the evo community award thingy this year

Markman already won it in 2011. But they might do some ceremony for him.

You could be the smartest person on the planet and end up on scrubquotes cause you talked about execution barriers.

You can't be too smart if you're suckered into one of those discussions.

This art is on point

 

[Juicebox_FGC]

I won't lie, I like the hard stuff and feel proud that I can do it. I like that in KOF stuff like running normal throw, antiair supers, and HD combos require dedicated practice.

But let's be real. A sky-high skill ceiling is not important for many people. Artificially widening the gap between the skills of players scares beginners away. SF4 had a good mix of simple and not-so-simple stuff that made it approachable.

 

[QisTopTier]

I want to thank everyone that helped enable me to get to go to EVO again this year. I rarely get to go out and do much these days and being able to go to an event for my favorite genre of games like this means a unbelievable amount to me. I had a ton of fun last year and I can't believe I'm getting to do it all over again. Thank you.

Indeed. I just think SF4 went far too match up dependent. Not well verses in KOF so I can't comment on that but in DOA, it's far less match up dependent until you reach the top 5 where some in the cast can't do too much against but a much larger pool can actually get in.

 

[SamVimes]

Every single tournament in USFIV has huge character representation, in the last major we had a top 8 consisting of 8 different characters, 10 if you count the alts. At what point do we stop saying that in SF IV matchups matter too much?
