Fighting Games Weekly | Sept 29 - Oct 5 | 4th place wins a cake

I'd rather have it on 360 tbh as I never play games on PC and didn't bring my PS2 to college. what makes the PS2 ver better than the 360 ver?

Some frame rate issues & the game actually being localized in English.

The frame rate issues may just be me seeing as I've played both versions and the PS2 version just feels better for whatever reason.

Like I said though this point will be moot when the Steam version drops but if you need that fix and this is the only solution available to you right now then for $10 you could do much worse.

The 360 version is untranslated, I think it has more bugs due to being really outsourced, and has the absolute worst netcode of any fighting game ever.

It's probably a perfect port of the PS3 online experience.

Looks like an MKX character reveal is coming around noon tomorrow.

It's happening on XBL too. I wonder what's the occasion? Also wondering why Kyo, Iori & Mr.Karate aren't on sale?

The news actually is this is the first time NGBC has ever been on sale in the 4+ years its been on XBL.

All the rest of what's on sale is skippable because better versions do or will probably exist on Steam at some point except for Sky Stage, XX & Sen which I don't see SNK doing anything with those games at all but will be surprised if they actually do.

King of Fighters: Sky Stage - 5$ (400msp) (was10$)
King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match - 5$ (400msp) (was 10$)
Metal Slug 3 - 5$ (400msp) (was 10$)
Metal Slug XX - 7.50$ (600msp) (was 15$)
NeoGeo Battle Coliseum - 5$ (400msp) (was 10$)
Samurai Shodown 2 - 5$ (400msp) (was 10$)
King of Fighters 13 - 15$ (1200msp) (was 30$)
Samurai Showdown Sen - 10$ (800msp) (was 20$)

Hmm, thx for the tips. I know KOF 98 and 02 UM are coming to steam, but might as well use up what I have left in terms of Microsoft credits. :p

By the way, I bought KOF 98 um for 5$ so it is on sale after all.

Not sure why my posts saying play what you like, not what's popular got twisted. I didnt say you can't like SF4 because its popular. If you like SF4, play it. If you like a few fighters, play the ones you have easy access to or meet your needs.

Luckily, I can play most fighters I like. I have no qualms playing with a small group of people of varying skill levels and that's not an attack on those of you who do or your fanhood. GGPO works fine for me too.

BYOC rooms are great because of people bringing along copies of random fighters and then you have impromptu tourneys in shit like sfex. Thats what I was saying Sloth. Thats what I mean by support and play it. People do that at this local weekly by me. We played Bushido Blade for hours and its like being at an arcade trying to figure the moves and shit. Thats all I meant.

I wish my PS3 was with me cause I could have DoA5, SG, KoF13, SC5 and VF5FS available for anyone wanting to try that.

Final tooth pulling today, can't wait. Only downside is it's my Bday today so I'm not going to be able to celebrate it with friends as I'll be in agony laying in bed the rest of the day :D

Must have dropped after I made that post. Also Garou: MOTW is on sale for $5 as well and that's the best version of the game available right now. Links below.

What's the netcode like on kof98 & kof2002 on Xbox live? Might grab those if the netcode is good and the games are still active, preside I'll stick with GGPO

I bought neo Geo battle coliseum years ago and in down to run some games, even though I forgot how to play it

Well said. And thanks for articulating what I had swimming around in my head way better than I did.

I forgot to quote you. I was initially inspired to post in support of you. I think what you posted was great.

Not sure why my posts saying play what you like, not what's popular got twisted.

Because the last time I made a post in regards to the support of niche FG communities, it was regarding UNIEL. You said I was "part of the problem", when I stated I wouldn't put time into the game, despite enjoying it, because I expected my local scene to drop it when P4U dropped (They did).
 
Especially when they're both food and the dude just said he got his teeth removed.

Speaking of noteeth ok foods I had pea soup with avocado in it today. It was nice but kinda strange. We usually eat pea soup with mustard here but felt like that wouldn't fit. Thankfully it was spiced with black pepper and a bit of chili. Still, weirdd.
