This is all in service of adding the console characters to the arcade unit, and they're not going to try and sell us BB:CS2 next year, right?
Read the OP, Mori went on record as saying it'll be a patch.

More is up

Lambda is lookin so tasty right now.

Its not in this vid in particular (4 more on the sidebar), but 236A can crossup now. Also, C attacks got beefed up a lot. 236D is a lot more useful now too.

Edit: Wow. I love the new Tsubaki

Edit2: DAT MU

damn that 5d charge is fast.

Dude, wat!?

The announcer sounds. . . terrible.

It's like a less bouncy version of the original announcer trying to be all serious business now.

Sorry, one of those wacky things I notice. :\

REE-BEL TOO, ACK SHUN!

Yeah, the new announcer is meh. They're just trying to get more people to buy Jin's voice over no doubt.

I doubt that it will change in the patch.
You going to switch back to Tsubaki?

(I'm hoping to have a new PS3 soon. I just have to get the heart to sell my 360...)

I can guarantee you the most sporadic and inconsistent play from one round to another that you've ever seen.

Stupid question; but why sell your 360? They're both ticking time bombs. Best to have back up, ya heard? ;)
There's nothing else that I want to play on 360 aside from Mass Effect 3 - no point in keeping a console for another year just to play one game (just for Mass Effect 1 save files at that...). I've played just about everything worth playing for the 360.
 
I just got Valk for 320 points(the sweet spot) and I'm loving it so far. His combos are basic and easy to understand and his wolf form is absolutely badass. The wolf lunges, basic combos, cool specials and great reach will definitely make this guy popular online. I'm kind of bummed that they decided to keep Makoto at the same price though...
DY_nasty said:
I know. Kinda makes me want to run back to Tsubaki.

New Rachel, Lambda/Mak
I watched the video and goddamn that looks good. Rachel looks much nicer than before, Hazama is much more fluid which is going to make matches against him more fun and Lambda is no longer Hambda!

Makoto is also even more of a beast at close range than before.

HYPE RISING!

I'm making this transition as well(although I've already got a PS3). I was actually considering a double dip since I like the game too much to miss out on the expanded audience. My backlog is too massive so I'll have to hold off on plans to sell it anytime soon however...

Its pissing me off because I still have MS points on my 360 account and just paid for another year and I'm not sure if I'll have to sell my harddrive with it to get it. This is the only gen where I haven't had every system and its killing me :/

If you can swing it, sit tight; wait for price drops. In previous generations I didn't have an interest in other consoles. This generation 360 has the shmups, XBL Indies, and some other cool niche Japanese stuff coming out next year. PS3 has - uh, Warhawk and Twisted Mental. Wii has, durrr some crap I like. :p

I find that most of my favorite games this generation are multi-platform.

I'm planning to re-PS3 down the road; but my butthurt runs deep over losing my backward compatible PS3, then paying Sony $150 for repair, then that unit breaking a month later, then mailing it back. BLAH! BLAH! And no reliable f'ing way to safely back up all my data. Ugh.

It was a pain in my ass. I'll get a PS3 when it's priced according to what I'm willing to pay. Plus I had a ton of Rockband DLC and plastic instruments that were gathering dust until I loaned them to a friend for use while I'm without PS3.

I've got over thirty-five 360 games and my 360 red ringed the other day. The disk drive still spins after I've taken out the disk and turned the system off. I'm determined to make this my last microsoft console unless someone pays my online fees for me(just renewed). I'll take a similar position with the PS3 if they charge to play online.

My sure bets at this point are the next nintendo console and PC gaming, but I'm not entirely sure where fighting games fit in when it comes to this combination. I can't see most fighting game fans on a Nintendo system.:lol

Sell the 360 and get DS lite on the cheap. The PS3 is definitely going to have another price drop with it's horrible performance in the west and a lot of it's big hitters are coming next year. It'd be better for your wallet and your sanity if you just got something for the interim. The time to get a PS3 was black Friday and that has already passed.

A DS would probably be a better deal when you factor in a lot of time intensive stuff like the plethora of RPG and strategy games in the DS library. I'd also recommend Steam if you've got a decent gaming PC.

The only game I wanted for DS was Infinite Space (and it was great).

But I've never played Uncharted, Demon's Souls, Valkyria Chronicles, The good version of FF13, fighting games on a good pad, and I've cleared almost everything I've wanted to play on 360.

Wish I had PC worth the porn on it.
 
Well Calamity Trigger is out for the PC. ;)

The rise of Western developers and Japanese developers making hare brained decisions (polygons instead of HD sprites, and dumbing down game mechanics) is really cooling my interest in console gaming. This generation is probably the start of that.

Hopefully this trend of bigger budgets, more overblown production dies down a little and download services get more cool original content like Shantae and Contra Hard Corps: Uprising.

Just seems foolish to abandon the sprite medium of game art when developers barely scratched the surface of sprites on modern consoles. Sprite haters be damned. :D

I'm shipping in March, so I kinda want to bang all my gaming out until then.

Noel scares me more than anyone else right now. Mak is a bitch, yeah, but Noel with that speed and a faster optic barrel to keep you down with crackhead speed is going to be a nightmare online.

For anyone who doesn't know yet (and that's probably everybody), NSB is expanding beyond Super Street Fighter 4. NSB 18 is going to be BBCSII. The tournament starts at December 25 at 11PM EST (lol Christmas night). It's the standard 3v3 format.

Will this BBCSII stuff be implemented in the console releases? If yes, has there been any announcement when a patch will be out?

Suppose to be a patch. No annoucement of a date yet, but don't expect it coming out anytime soon. Arcades need to make money.

360B does 3724 in CS already.
3274

EDIT; I bitch about this a lot, but the reason I'm never getting any better is because I'm spending all of my practice time relearning things I used to know how to do. Today, for some reason, I can no longer do [D] j.C ]D[ airdash j.C. I just spent about an hour and I didn't connect it once.

Tager's still not good enough. He needs a dash like u tager has.
Tager doesn't need a dash. He'd be EX Broken-Tier if he did. I like the new additions that he's been given so far. Hell, the second part of his sledge slides now too. 6a has armor too I think...
 
_dementia said:
These proposed Tager changes are hilarious but I'm sure these brainstorming sessions are similar to the ones Arc has :lol

LOL, can you imagine these guys hard at work? OK, Tager has been bottom tier for the last two games... What can we do? OK, super armor 6A, better pull on 720 and let's make him an awesome prime breaker. To balance it out, let's take out 24 damage off of the 360.

PERFECT
