Anyone know if the PS3 pre-order theme is exclusive to the PSN Play offer or if it will be available later?

Already preordered. This is the third time that I buy 3rd Strike. Hopefully THIS TIME I can perfect the parry bonus game. :(

PSN: Shinriji

AWWWW YEAHHHH

Can't wait for this to come out. It's practically reinvigorated me to pick up fighting games again(so much so that I bought a stick and a copy of SSFIV). My PSN: Aurarian.

If any other 360 US folks are starting from ground zero with this game please add me. I don't mind getting crushed by experts but it would be nice to have a couple of fellow noobs to learn with.

Awesome thread, I'm down for some games with Gaffers.

PSN; Bootaaay - Elena / Remy / Akuma

Should be interesting, I've been playing the game for years but only among a small circle of 5 friends, so my well honed skills may turn out to be worthless, but oh well :D

Last I heard, this game is being taken off of GGPO in the very near future if it hasn't been already.

A reminder to XBL players. Instead of listing gamertags and adding a bunch of people, just add the metatag I've created and when in game, invite from that friends list.

Add gamertag GAF 3S :)

Excellent; thank you.

Cool; sending you an invite for sure. I just got back into fighting games with SSIV:AE and it gave me an intense craving to revisit 3S. All I ask is you remember to fight like a gentleman :p

I'll get both, what are the best arcade sticks? Preferably a universal, but accuracy is most important.

great OP! I'm pretty new to fighters. Which console usually has the bigger/more devoted community? I want to be able to find a fight (and promptly lose) fast and with no fuss.

Both are equal in that regard, but a lot of players in the USA play on 360. I've heard several pro scene players make comments that the online on PSN is worse than 360's when it came to games like SF4 and MvC3.

This game will use GGPO, so that shouldn't have a baring. GAF has a few loyal peeps on PS3 in a Gaf chat channel who play together, but 360 also has its circle of peeps you can find games with.

Pick whichever you feel more comfortable with. I'm going 360, because that's my primary console for fighters and what I bought my TE arcade stick for.

Hopefully everyone in GAF SSF4 PSN chat picks this up, looking forward to bodying you all with Sean.

Yo, you're already on my friends list but I'm in the same boat. Will be learning like a complete noob. Going to be playing offline with some friends for the first couple of days though.

Pretty pumped for this. Look forward to getting my ass beat in another fighting game.

Also looking forward to properly learning Elena. I'll be messing around with Sean and Makoto on the side.

Actually it's weird. I never player Super Turbo II until HD Remix. That's when I became a Cammy fan. I've been playing her since then and still do in Arcade Edition of IV. I think I'm going to buy this though. Give it a shot. It's a pretty legendary game from what I understand, I kind of feel obligated.

Whatever. 3rd Strike has a better roster than SF2.

Winning is too easy with Ken. Using Sean is a real challenge.

Look. I'm going to pick Ken, and I'm going to use SAIII, and I'm going to bloody well like it.

Try again when you have money, bum. Jokes aside, it might help if you tell us the error message.

The only SF that I did not play as much as I would've liked due to not having the game in the arcade and spending all free time on Tekken.
Are Gouki/Makoto/Dudley good picks for a beginner?

PSN: shinbojan (Region: Europe).
