Fighting Games Weekly | July 1-7 | Heel turns, shattered dreams, broken cages

Nashville!

Hey! I grew up there, cool to hear there are arcades again. (I'll spare you the "back in the day" arcade story. :P )

ultradavid has this graffiti looking signature lol. Probably a secret tagger by night

It's required to be a lawyer. Part of the bar exam.

New Ono tweet.

I will not get hype, I will not get hype, I will not get...brb, off on twitter to harass Ono about Asura again.

Good article about the Noel/Kotaku stuff.
 
There're going to announce SSFIVCE available for PS4/XBONE, which is how they plan on getting funding for the patch
An Up-port would be huge for the game's longevity. I've been expecting at a minimum the SFxT 4, but with an outside chance of pallete swaps (Urien, Sean, Necro) and a super-outside chance of Kuma.

I don't think those that write in the academic feminist language realize the insularity of their speech. It's a good read until about halfway through where it starts making expectations of the audiences' knowledge, background, and vocabularity.

They need to worry about SFV at some point, an up-port would make sense to bring some quickie cash in though, and maybe make the Sony version match the other versions.
 
Skisonic is pretty good too when he does not have an extremely hoarse voice. Dude can bring the hype when needed.

Dnyce is definitely not commentating material.
 
Kinda nuts that his sponsor and his friends didn't bail him out

You expect them too? Not that he isn't deserving of their help but I'm sure a sponsors contracts may not include bailing their players out of prison.

Skisonic is best with someone like Ultra David or Arturo.
 
When I went to E3 forever ago, I turned on the faucet in my hotel room and shit smelled like straight up sewage. Was quite a shock to me, having lived most of my life in rural Kentucky until then. From then on I never again wondered why people would actually buy bottled water.
 
I'm starting to believe that rumor that Triforce blew most of the VxG sponsorship money on bad investments. But only time will tell if Dieminion is boycotting EVO or boycotting Triforce or something completely unrelated.

Most people have satisfactory tap water, but some people are completely justified in filtering or just going bottled.

"Triforce, you knuckle-beak! I told you a hundred times to sell your pumpkin futures before Halloween! Before!"

I think you're jumping to imaginary conclusions. Dieminon said the reason he's not attended Evo is due to personal ones. . .

This can't be related to VxG. Has to be a personal issue.
 
I was looking through the SF pools and they all looked pretty free for one or two players. Then I saw Aquasilk, Chris G, and Online Tony all in the same pool :(


Edit: Aqua and Online Tony face each other first round.

skisonic yells too much/tries to get way to hype. I mean god damn I don't want a commentator yelling into my ears about how some guy in ae landed an ultra dear lord. He has some insight, but I think he tries to over analyze moves people make and what they are thinking
 
Man, it cannot be understated how bad Orlando tap water tastes.
I think there's a contest going between the various municipalities in the area to concoct the most vile-tasting offering. Maybe they get a cut of the Brita sales at the local grocery stores.
 

Are you fucking serious? Give me a break.

Just as an aside, who the hell calls a woman 'a female'?

Men and women are what you call male and female humans.

All I'm saying is, I would fully support Noel brown hitting a female- if the female was a grizzly bear, siberian tiger, mountain lion, etc...

In fact, they'd probably get a lot of money to set those matches up, steel cage or not

Ski only really bothers me when he says something that's straight up wrong regarding the game mechanics or move properties.
 
I play Cap so I'm hoping that I can just get lucky on Charging Stars.

GAF YOU HAVE TO HELP ME PREPARE

Don't put *too* much stock in Cap/Unibeam against Morrigan. She can duck under the beam, leaving your Charging Star to be punished.

Gotta pick your spots well if you're gonna do it to avoid the duck and/or chicken block punish.
 
Well fuck, Uryo got moved to my SFxT bracket.

Time to practice against Ogre and Xiaoyu.

Got cafeid/rzr Verna in KOF13 now, lol.
 
Fuck I face Chris G very first round at Evo for Marvel 3.

Are you serious.

I fought Chris G in my pools matches in 2011. I'll give you some advice that I would have found very helpful then:

There's a lot of great things to do in Vegas.

New Ono tweet.

I think we are getting new characters with the update. Maybe we see the characters from SFXT (Rolento, Hugo etc).

SSF4CE

New characters!

Rolento
Elena
Karin
Q

I didn't know you played.

Vulva is my EVO homeboy.

Duly noted. I'm still not even 100% sure what I'm going to play, but I'm definitely going to be practicing with as much as possible with my main teams/characters.

I can't gamble yet =\
 

Gotta ask something, as I've been trying to learn this on the side.

How do you guys deal with folks who can JG 2nd hits of strings regularly? It's something I've not really bothered with yet, but it's super annoying- is this common in tournaments? It makes stuff which is just disadvantage usually punishable. Is there a way to make folks pay for it (outside of delay strings, which you don't always have, and most of those are easily avoidable)


Just as an aside, who the hell calls a woman 'a female'?


Military folks.
 
Man, I hope Bison gets some love. Even a small buff. And return U2 to two fireball motions.

Mm...I wonder how active SF4 still is on XBL. Anyone know?
 
Totilo running away from Patrick Miller's criticism as fast as he possibly can.

It must suck to run a tabloid and tell yourself every night you don't really run a tabloid.
