YOU MONSTER

X surprised me as well. Overall, that story demo was a serious cock-tease, considering how quickly enemies died, and the only fight with a real opponent was limited to the awkward duo of Spencer and Thor. It was just a struggle to test out combos on opponents made of wet tissue paper.

Interesting. The tag and assist mechanics look very much like MvC up until someone gets KO’d, at which point the match resets position (rather than immediately forcing the next character into action as MvC does). This might mitigate some of the one-sided chaos MvC is notorious for, and is a welcome change in my…

Some of us won’t forget. Plus we have a whole year to enjoy it before DBFZ comes out, so who knows; it might just give Hyper DBZ a boost in the interim.

Considering that Arc System Works is behind it, shallow gameplay isn’t likely to be a concern. “Overwhelmingly technical” might actually become an issue for more casual/non-fighting-game fans.

To be fair he didn’t lose every MATCH; he managed to take one from K-Brad. But yes, he definitely lost every set. Sorry, pedantic semantics, I know.

I agree. The FGC is (ironically) one of the most diverse, international, and tolerant communities in gaming (where else do you have so many gay and transgendered badasses kicking ass and getting respect?), but outsiders looking in will pick out the first seemingly offensive thing they find and then gasp in horror so lo…

Wolfkrone is a severely socially-awkward kid. He’s a damn good fighting game competitor, but he’s always been pretty quiet, and he doesn’t appear on FGC-related talk-shows because he’s not a witty extrovert like K-Brad. Wolfkrone is the LAST person you want holding a mic in this beef; he serves far better as either…

That.... was also just Zhi. You can kinda tell that he realized he said something controversial as starts to over-emphasize his statement and then tries to play it off as something else. I personally thought it was hilarious. Zhi also fires off some jokes about climate change and people who don’t believe in them. I…

Both of the players Zhi’s commenting on are his friends. Tasty Steve set him up with the whole “this is good for the fighting community, bad for your heart” line. Zhi quickly seasoned it with a favorite competitive gaming term (salt/sodium), and ran with it towards late night diners (places where you get food high in…

More like New Japan Pro Wrestling. Much like NJPW, the narratives are whatever, but the action is way more interesting. Hell, Kenny Omega is essentially an honorary member of the FGC and can hold his own against pro and high-level players, so let’s just leave WWE out of this.

Personally, I think K-Brad and Wolfkrone’s…

“If you’ve never tried either [the Oculus or Vive], you’ll probably be more immediately impressed.”

Mod the thing, man. It’s shockingly easy.

I haven’t posted anything in ages, but I have to note that while the PSPGo was a commercial failure of epic proportions, it was actually an excellent console... as long as you modded it (which is now ridiculously easy) and had a big Memory Stick Micro (which weren’t nearly as expensive as the PS Vita’s proprietary…

5'6" tall at 170 lbs is pretty damn fat (or SFA M. Bison buff). Those guys look pretty thin.

It’s a tragic kind of champion: the kind that isn’t relevant until he loses. When was the last time he lost? Oh yeah, that time he fought Dominick Cruz. Maybe it's time for that rematch.

As painful as the old infusion system was, it made sense in that it forced us to be extremely tactical in how we infused things, and forced us to keep a trove of lower level crap to “step up” an item to the ideal light range, and... Wait. That sounds like a horrible way to artificially inflate replay value.

Hiding war crimes is our thing. Blathering about them outright tends to be frowned upon.

I suppose winners are afraid of punctuation, then?
