Is that usually faster? I thought people just did that so they didn't have to listen to the 360's dvd drive.

Did anyone else notice the price increase of the JPN version over at Play Asia?
Just wanted to post this again for those who may have missed it:

It is a PSD of the TE template stuffed with TONS of art for you to play with. Stuff from TvC, Third Strike, Guilty Gear and a bunch of random Capcom and SNK stuff.
All art is in folders and labeled. Have fun.

Yes there is. Go into sound options and set cutscenes and the game itself to JP or EN. After beating it once, you can also set voices for individual characters.

sp0rsk: is you console set to JPN or ENG language? if you set you PS3 to English, will the game boot up with English menus?
Are you talking about the Asian versions? the Asian versions are in English. It's the JPN versions we need to worry about.Nemesis556 said:
My order at Play-Asia had the icon saying available/ready for shipping etc. this morning. It's disappeared now though.

I went back and forth for a while and went with the PS3 version. I have HD Remix for the PS3 already, I prefer trophies over achievements (dont ask me why...) and both of my 360's appear to be on their last legs. Plus since playing HD remix I've made a lot of friends on PSN to play with. I'll pick up the 360 version later down the line and hopefully can scrape up a 2nd TE stick too.
It's the third one I've had since launch. Actually... fourth... I bought this one like a year ago IIRC and sold the second refurb.jon bones said:
The other thing is I'm probably more excited to play King of Fighters XII, so wherever I invest in a stick is where I'm going to play that, too.
I play shooters pretty regularly and right now that seems like Xbox 360 is the way to go.
Dave Long said:
Come on, be a S tier man. Go with both.
I guess it's up to how many of your friends are getting it and for which system. Time to take a poll. If you want to play Gaffers...we seem split. Which is why I'm getting both. Plus, I'm a whore. =/

No one can answer about how to use cancels and dash cancels and how they work?
I'm so newb to those types of things .. I guess because stuff like SF2THDR really don't use these elements or they do and I have had no clue

FADCing allows you to cancel a special move and recover before your opponent so you can follow up with more attacks. The most basic example in SFIV is with Ryu. Dragon Punch, Focus Attack Dash Cancel (hold MP + MK, tap forward twice), Ultra. The first hit of his Dragon will pop them up, but you will cancel out of your Dragon and stay on the ground where you will have enough time to pull off an Ultra before they hit the ground.

Holy heck.. Okay.. I gotta get some quick fingers..haunts said:
To pull that off after the first part of the DP hits will be hard.
I noticed someone doing that in a Vega (Claw) video .. They cancelled out of a roll and then instantly moved into a full bar special Wall dive. They were completely faked out and kept blocking because of the roll and it went so fast that the Vega (Claw) moved right into the Super Izuna Drop.
It was pretty epic. I think Bebop did it.

Well, the good thing about FADCs is that in that shoryuken instance, you're going to want to FADC it regardless of it hits. If the other guy blocks it and its a regular shoryuken, you're going to pay big time, so you want to safe and dash forward for the throw anyway. In that case, you really only need to get good at the specific timing, instead of having to worry so much about hit confirmation.
Snapshot King said:
Yeah I was just going to post something similar. You want to do it anyway if you have the stock with Ryu, because even if they block you are safe.
There are alot of applications for the Focus Attack.. took me like 2 months to get comfortable with it but everyone here will pick it up quick cause all the info is out there now.

So even if it hits I should do it? Won't that hurt me because I then won't finish my DP and get maximum damage on him?haunts said:
I understand doing it because I have a Super or Ultra ready to punish but I'm confused on why I would do it all the time.
(Though you mentioned "If you have Stock" so I'm guessing you meant the stock in the Super/Ultra bar.)
Just confused with the post by Snapshot.
FADC when..
DP hits and you have ultra/super
DP doesnt hit and he blocks so you don't get punished
Dont FADC when..
DP hits but you don't have ultra/super ready
Right?
Same thing apply with Ken? It appears you can get a couple of hits out of a Fierece SRK, then FADC out of it to follow up. Just that his ultra is trickier to time than say, Ryu's? just going with videos (I NEED TO PLAYYYYYY), I'm wondering where Ken's strengths lie. Kara-throws?
TurtleSnatcher said:
You just have to keep an eye on your EX Meter/Super Bar and make the descion based on if you have an Ultra or EX meter so you can follow up with an attack. I mean if you only have two stocks to FADC and no Ultra then yeah its probably a waste but if you have three stocks, you can still follow up with EX Fireball if it hits.
I mean really with what you're saying, you shouldnt be doing DPs unless you have a clear way to land them (combo, anti air) anyway. If you dont have the meter to make it safe and follow up with an attack you shouldnt be doing it unless you know it will hit.
Kintaro said:
You gotta wait fo rthe GUUUIDDE... lol.
I mean with Ken its a bit different. You can follow up with Ultra, but you have to FADC the second hit of his DP in that is the hit that pops them up, and even so his full Ultra wont hit on most characters in most situations.
Ken plays a lot differently than Ryu, thats for sure.

Okay interesting.
Can't wait to try FADC on Vega (Claw)...
Maybe I was wrong when I saw that video of someone doing a Claw Roll and then cancelling and pulling off a Super because cancelling eats up a bar so it doesn't seem possible..
He must have pulled that off really fast..
Ill see if I can find that video somewhere.

Same here. The first half of his ultra seems a lot like it, though.
