here's an OK guy beating daigo; it looks as if daigo gets randomed out as much as anythinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiyAOzOlmDY

In that Guy fight, surprised if that was actually Daigo and not his friend or something there - a few sloppy things, especially with the focus vs. crossup, never dashing out of focus, a few dropped combos

jeff, did you pick up super or are you waiting for the PC port?
― cozen, Sunday, 30 May 2010 16:58 (fourteen years ago) link
I got the 360 version, but I've just barely played it (for some reason). Definitely keep meaing to get more into it, but there has just been other games I've wanted to play more. I think I've actually played more Super Turbo in MAME/GGPO than SSFIV since it came out - LOL.
― Jeff LeVine, Sunday, 30 May 2010 17:18 (fourteen years ago) link
Man those are some of the worst, most annoying commentators I've ever heard. I wish more tourneys would think about getting people who have a little bit of professionalism or mic experience to do these things. The guys for this NorCal tourney though, too loud, too easily impressed, etc. - 90% of their comments were "he does THIS because he's SO GOOD", distracting from the match. It's understandable to get excited about points in the match but they were screaming almost every round at any Ultra that hit, even the guesses/trades. Kind of hilarious how everyone there was in the bag for Lamerboi, though, as a local I guess? Good perf by both, though Justin was sloppier than usual for the first couple of matches.
Major lols at that ragequit - Buktooth's Fuerte was really good!

I don't mind magus1234 all that much, mostly cos he seems like a cool enough dude; I'm not sure how SFIV commentary done strait wd be really tho I guess seth k*ll*an kinda did just that at the world exhibition matches last year
I like chris hu as well, mostly cos his broken english is p.funny; the only commentator I find roundly objectionable is arturo

lol yeah they're all sausagefests
Hu I find a little annoying. I'm a little ashamed to say it as an AA myself but his accent is just too thick. But at the very least he totally knows what he's talking about and is usually having fun with it that, carries to the broadcast. One guy I'm getting tired of seeing, though, is Skisonic. He's not terrible but I keep hoping they'll get someone better.
k*ll*an was perfect IMO. Ideally I think it should be split in a typical wrestling style, one technical/mostly straight narrator and one color commentator. Most of the time though it's emotional reactions and tiny bits of tech/psychological talk, which frankly is what I want to hear more than "OHHH MY GOD!" screamed at the top of someone's lungs for 10 minutes straight. That's what the crowd is for, NOT the commentators.

Just played about an hour of Super arcade mode (hard, offline) & reminded myself that the game is so solid. But also reminded myself why I've yet to play it more, as it just feels so much like the game I played the hell out of last year... a game I really don't want to play online against strangers too much anymore either.

http://shoryuken.com/media.php?do=details&mid=2439Arturo's Seth is just sick. The Abel player starts doing really well about halfway through the video though, when he switches to Ultra II.
― Nhex, Thursday, 3 June 2010 00:56 (fourteen years ago) link
seth has the distinction of being the most annoying character in a game FULL of annoying characters
― cozen, Thursday, 3 June 2010 07:43 (fourteen years ago) link
I was getting wound up just watching those matches lol
Seth's number of mixups is insane, but am i wrong here - it looks like his damage and stamina are even worse in Super?! Maybe it just looked that way because he was fighting Abel.
― Nhex, Thursday, 3 June 2010 07:46 (fourteen years ago) link
abel's ultra 2 is some ridiculous bullshit
ok let's give abel an ultra that's hard to avoid unless you have a floaty jump, can be used anti-air, can be cancelled at any time, can be held/delayed, gives him some super armour, and does a shit-ton of damage loooooll
― cozen, Thursday, 3 June 2010 07:52 (fourteen years ago) link
struggling to think of a more annoying normal than seth's jumping fierce. maybe bison's standing roundhouse?
― cozen, Thursday, 3 June 2010 07:57 (fourteen years ago) link
I will say the abel player did really well to hold it down; especially after the first two matches were pretty much an relentless whitewash

tokido is ridiculous
anyway like an idiot I re-picked this up today for cheap; it just has some very fundamental problems which stop it being a fun fighting game. it is random and dull at low levels and dry and dull at intermediate levels.. tho it is pretty entertaining to watch at extremely high levels

is your opponent close? don't worry! no need for skill! just mash jab!
opponent doing combos? who cares! why bother train! just mash ultra!

Things I learned from going back to SFIV PC this weekend: 1) the competition seems to have thinned out to hardcore fanatics, for the most part - I was losing pretty awfully 2) more than many multiplayer games, it feels really hard to get back in the groove with this game - needed to play for a long time (too long, damn these manos of fate) to get back to my normal skill level 3) I'm still constantly amazed and baffled how people can pull off actual combos online

I think I'm final starting to get into Super, played some online games last night and had a pretty good time & also good, green bar connections & not so much trouble finding games thru quick match (it probably worked right 50% of the time!).
Via replay channel is there any way to see your friend's match replays - as frankly, watching random strangers replays isn't very entertaining, but it would be cool to browse thru friend's last 15 games or something like that.
One weird thing is since I'm playing on a Japanese 360 - it shows my region flag as Japan & I swear that's giving me an advantage online as people get intimidated when they see that Japanese flag - or at least it seems like that to me - or maybe just the randoms I played last night weren't very good.
Anyhow, definitely feeling & thinking I'm going to start playing this more now.
