The ps2 version has all the games so it does have all the stages. All of them aren't selectable for one game though. Plus it's 480i so you aren't missing much.

Everyone should at least conclude the year of dreams with a playthrough of God Hand if you guys haven't! It's really fun!

You wouldn't know it if you came into most "best fighting game" or "best fighting game to learn basics from" threads here. GG, SG, VSav, BB, some 3D fighters and other games are presented more often alongside their faults to keep expectations in check instead of being tossed out there without context like SF4 just because it has a huge audience. I can't remember the last time SF4 was recommended, but with the caveats of a large roster size, delay based netcode (pretty mediocre unless you are SCV or TTT2), no teaching tools or a wonky and difficult input system. In comparison it's not unusual for a lot of other games to be described as too fast (VSav), contentious in their aesthetic (BB, Skullgirls and Arcana), too small in roster size (skullgirls), too LARGE in roster size (think Tekken), too complex (KOF XIII or AC+R which isn't even that difficult), too easy (Why would you want SCV to be HARDER!?) or too lopsided in their balance (Third Strike) even by the people doing the recommending.
Fake Edit: I think I went off on a tangent. I guess part of me has also been kind of annoyed with the way SF4 is presented by the audience and not just how it plays.
The top players really made it something special. The best footage definitely came from EVO top 32 and Japanese arcade tournaments. Other games can have their yearly peaks at entirely different times in comparison. SFV is probably going to need more characters playing in new ways to capture people to the degree SFIV did. We'll see if the V system is enough to do that in a year or two when the cast has grown by 6-12 characters. Sagat and Balrog had better get a mean makeover after being active in the series for so long.
CG and no fixed schedule for the manga put a damper on the announcement.

That title was thoroughly earned by SFxT if we're talking fighting games. Everything I've ever said in life could be a lie, but this would be the one truth lol. Also, a popular or main entry getting shit is nothing. It only really matters when it drags the game down in the process. Third Strike fans would get that.

I can't make a longer post Solar cause im on mobile, hehe. But ive seen so many people talk shit about and hate on sf4. Sfxtk, people just dont care. Its not played. People talked shit, then stopped playing.

SF4 is treated a lot more nicely nowadays. I'd say it probably has to do with people not acting like it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.
I don't know if you are talking about gameplay, aesthetics or both. Dhalsim, Ken and Zangief benefited greatly from gameplay makeovers (and visual ones for a couple here). Sagat could definitely benefit the way Zangief and Dhalsim did at the very least.

I think Sagat would be good as-is. Just the removal of focus attacks makes his long limbs a lot stronger. Though if they cut his pokes like they have everyone else, then yeah, he'll need some help.
It's a given at this point.

Some characters are easy to imagine transitioning to SFV. Others, like Guile, I really don't know what they will do.
The Mystic Eye of Depth Perception?
I'd like to see an evolution of SF4 Sagat with his quick forward dashing and forward-moving attacks while still keeping his slow walk speed/slow backing speed. SF4 Sagat was the most fun version of him ever and his buttons are satisfying. He will have weaker fire balls anyways because that's how this game goes but I'd like to see his other aspects brought to the forefront. Bringing the best of how Bonchan plays Sagat to SF5 as a character basically.

It can be a great game and still not be the best thing since sliced bread. And everybody's idea of sliced bread is different of course
And i would love for sagat to get a big overhaul. Boxer as well. There is a material to pull from.

Too soon to say with certainty, but I don't really think it'll be much of an issue. F.A.N.G looks to have sufficient offensive options from what little footage we've seen and Dhalsim comes off as a far more kinetic character compared to past iterations after witnessing the general approach of Arturo and other able players.
Combo Breaker made a cool trailer for their 2016 tournament: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUxrl_JK42I&feature=youtu.be
Doesn't feel like we get as many tournament trailers as we used to a few years ago. I remember the days of wubwub dubstep everywhere.

I did see someone avoid a chip kill against Dhalsim's super on Art's stream by using the v-reversal. Could still change in the final build tho.

Guile will need to have a third special in his Vskill. :O

If Guile doesn't bring the shades to V then he may as well stay in IV
Heh.
Guile better start learning some new moves and actually keeping them.
They'll probably incorporate his shades in some fashion, nowadays.
Yeah, I have a feeling that Balrog is gonna get more illegal boxing maneuvers in his moveset.

I think Guile will get a Sonic Boom that acts like Trish's scythe super for his VTrigger. 3 seconds of blockstun for free mixups or something.
Was I confusing final round with combo breaker? I'm sorry CurlyW lol, I'm definitely going since its at the end of May. The flights are super cheap too, around 200 bucks on average. Would love to use jetblue buts its over 400.... yikes
HIT ME UP CURLY LOL...
Just tried reserving, they don't have any tower doubles... only queen size beds... curly pls fix
yo yams you play 3s? wanna play sometime on fightcade? im just startin out.

I'll get on fightcade right now if anyone is interested in VSav or 3S. Playing gaffers in any sort of fighter is my idea of a great time, but it almost never happens.
Muay Thai has so many different forms and moves that boggles the mind. I'd be okay with Sagat having some new straight up counter moves for close range.It can be a great game and still not be the best thing since sliced bread. And everybody's idea of sliced bread is different of course
And i would love for sagat to get a big overhaul. Boxer as well. There is a material to pull from.
See, that right there would be freaking awesome.

exactly right man
imma take you up on this in the next couple of days.
Benefited in what way? Dhalsim looks just as shitty as ever tbh and now he has even less horizontal ground control and it remains to be seen if the other characters "benefited". Change just for the sake of change isnt always something to applaud.
i think sim seems like a more interesting character now which is imo a great benefit despite how good he winds up being. if ryu couldnt throw fireballs or something i could see how that could be considered unnecessary change but giving sim a more specific and varied toolset that is in the same vein as what he normally does seems fine. its not like sf4 sim was close to st sim, the characters have changed quite a bit and i hope they continue to do so.
Exactly!
The same as the Dreamcast version.
Why didn't they ripped off Gundam Vs' boost meter for Petshop? His shit eating grin at 1:50 is the best, btw

and I loved SFV beta when it got working. Not sure why people find it bland. Though I am disappointed Chun has less specials than in IV. Missing hazenshu, but I'm finding alternatives!

I have to say I like a lot of SFV's accessibility choices. I had trouble making combos in SFIV because of 1 frame links. I like that I don't have to work too much into teaching myself new combos. I know that makes me a scrub probably, but I don't think learning basic combos should be that hard to master.
?
You can link LP to MP? Sounds useful!

Ofc it's useful. Especially with how good jabs between pressure is looking (right now at least) cr. jab ~ st.MP ~ cr.MK ~ legs. easy hit confirms easy life.
Turns out Juri was Sagat in drag all along. You will be ashamed of your deeds, ShinMaruku.
