Super Street Fighter IV

It's all good, but I kinda ditched that game now. It's too foul for me, and arcade edition just made things worse.

Hey Zolt, I still play if you're interested in a few matches. I main Rog and Dudley, and i mainly just mess around with the other characters.

Originally posted by gr01n5h07 I think a lot of us have it, like me, but don't play it.  I'm sure I would play it more if I had a clue what the combos were, and could put down the 5 other games I am currently playing.

LOL, this^! popped it in for 5 mins once PSN initially went down, then it got replaced by AC Brotherhood pretty damn quick!

gr01n5h07, I'm glad i did it :)

Look at this one, Daigo VS Lamerboi, evo 2010

An interesting match, and I really like how commentators are describing what's going on.

Originally posted by Zoltrekun YIN, netcode isn't garbage. I play just fine. gr01n, you're wrong. Ok, you're partially right, combos do matter, but they do not decide the winner. Tekken and its juggling system does that. SF is a different story.

Originally posted by Zoltrekun I can give you some tips;  Don't switch characters if you're new to the game. Pick your favorite and play with him/her all the time.  Focus rather on your tactic than combos. You'll be learning combos as you move up. And there are many tactics you can focus on(offense, defense, mind games, mixups...). Keep in mind that Street Fighter is all about footsies. Term ''footsies'' essentially means - controlling spacing. There are two types: Spacing between you and your opponent, and spacing between any of you and the corners. First of, every character has his own distance priorities. Let's compare, say, Ryu and Ken. With Ryu, you will be most efficient while standing not too close, neither too far from opponent. This way, you can really play some quality mind games. What makes Ryu strong character is that he is well balanced all-rounder. He has good special moves, solid normal moves, not too fast, but not slow either. Simply put, he's an excellent ''poke'' character. Ken, on the other hand, doesn't have that kind of a balance. His moves are faster, but because they are not very solid, Ken lacks some defense qualities compared to Ryu. But because of his speed, better startup invincibility frames on specials, call it priority if you like, he is considered rush down character.  Now, controlling space means advantage. Corners are places you want to keep out of, but at the same time, push your enemy into it. Not being able to move backwards keeps your options limited, and thus you become much more predictable to read, control and manipulate. Stay out of it.  Speaking of controlling space and predictability, think about -what a fireball does? It controls space to your advantage. Opponent will be forced to make an action out of few choices. If you can predict what his next move will be, you already 1/2 hit him. Second 1/2 is reaction, and that comes with time.

YINYANG would you like to play some matches sometimes?

I was wondering, does anyone here play this game? Sure, there's people at shoryuken.com, but this site is the s**t! Haha, well, if you're interested, add me on PSN. My ID is same as this one, Zoltrekun. Oh and by the way, there's SSF4 Arcade Edition coming soon, both as DLC and game disk (you can choose). Cya!
