Their animations are just wonderful, Marisa's power and Manon's balletic elegance. Marisa's level 3 is chef's kiss 😘🤛

Good dog.

Yeah definitely loses a lot without the crowd, and if you've seen multiple GDQs before there's diminishing returns, but there are still lots of good runs to watch. How about 6 players blitzing the fuck out of some vehicles for a laugh?

Great fun this one, playing all the SNES Mario All-stars + World games with random swapping between each one.

The skill and reactions on display made me feel old and slow.

The BOTW any% is wild and contains very little of the stasis rock flying of old. No Elden Ring?

12 quid for both Ori's seems good.

I noticed gyro typing had stopped working on the store, and clicking the sticks doesn't activate it, but still works elsewhere. Weird.

I played til 3am, didn't want it to end. Had so many good sets with randoms in casual and feeling much more comfortable with chun, havent messed about with any green stuff in actual matches yet, just getting the fundamentals down. It's going to be a long 6 months.

Worked out that I can use my arcade stick using ps5 remote play on ps4. Probably costing me pounds an hour having them both on but I'll save on heating.

Thing is, the beta has no single-player as they're testing the online, and everything they've shown indicates the World Tour mode will be the best learning tool for the basics that they've ever included in a Street Fighter game.

Landed it in a match. Some tangible progress at least.

I really enjoy the discovery and testing process, noodling about in training and working out what works and piecing bits together. Managed to put together Chun's level 2 into air level 1 combo but I'm miles away from being comfortable in a match with her.

Gradually cottoned on to this after like the third time and was pleased to manage to tech the throw, parry the explosion, block for a bit then run under a jump.

I managed to grab most of this kimberley mirror. The spectator mode frame data popping up like Hifight breakdowns is a wonderful touch. Stay til the end for cameos. Edit: @Gambit I had a good hour in training at a cabinet last night just because most people had emptied out of the lobby, it's definitely possible. Spent all that time trying to get the hang of one chun stance cancel > HK launcher > stomps ex legs/air kikosho, christ she's technical in this.

Absolutely grinning like a bastard at how excellent it is wandering up to a cabinet and challenging a stranger to what quickly becomes a first-to-however many you both feel like until you decide to stand up and find someone else, even though I'm muddling through on pad. And this happened and it was the best.

I got in too, guess they're just opening the floodgates for this one!

Yeah, when you highlight an icon some games now seem to have the artwork of an activity as the background, and some even use the latest news article. For Hitman 3 a few weeks back it was a fullscreen image of one of the dev's faces.

@joffocakes The past decade not done anything for your bars then?

Great to read, you lucky boys. What was the stick situation with the beta? Did PS4 sticks work?

"Everything apart from the punching" so I'm guessing the PlayStation Home stuff.

Yes, demonstrated here:

Same, it was random select though rather than first come first served. Anyone get in?

Dhalsim's taunt has great comedic potential.
