In fact, does anyone fancy forum Sonic Kart tonight? That would be the best. I can actually chat when I play that, too, as my pad doesn't have a broken off bit of headset jack stuck inside it. We could do it after I beat Taurus Demon, which I'm sure won't take me long.

I only have vanilla :( Are there any big balance changes or tier list upsets?

Haha, it really is. I did a great job convincing myself I loved Sonic Adventure when I got my DC. I still love Big in Sonic Racing though; it creates such rage in people when they're beaten by a morbidly obese cat in a game of speed.

Oh, I also forgot to mention that your Dhalsim taunt is exceptional, and even better than the one I use and had assumed to be the best one. What an amazing selection that man has.

The thing about Sonic Adventure for me is that when I declared my love for it, I played it when I was even more lax about actually playing games for more than 20 minutes but collected them just as feverishly as I do now. So I did genuinely love what I played of it (I actually got through the Sonic story I think), and I still really like the Sonic bits, warts and all, but the rest is dire.

JLM, tell me what I could have done against your ridiculous barrage of randomly selected monsters please? I know this much:

My execution has gone to pot. MK->flame is almost a distant memory.

I can't remember whose Ultras go through projectiles.

I have literally no idea what to do against the twins.

I need to stop teleporting when it is obvious my opponent is onto that nonsense.

I need to stop sliding when I'm close. This usually catches people off guard at first, because I'm meant to be running away like the big lame cheeseburger that I am, right? But then, you know, stop.

I need to get all of his normals in muscle memory again because I constantly threw out moves with a lot of recovery from too near

That Dhalsim mirror made me want to cry.

Yeah, I think the raw teleports ended up costing you a lot. I tend to just throw out a couple of jabs to hit 'sim out of the recovery, and then you've been reset and are right next to me on my terms, which is obviously 'sim's worst nightmare. If yo have a comfortable life lead or you're in a match up 'sim handles quite well (Ryu, Gief etc.) you can just generally do a bit less and not take so many risks.

Also a bit more back + LK. It's been nerfed a little bit over the iterations of SF4, but it's just about all he has at point blank range to interrupt people's pressure. I abuse the hell out of it when I play as 'sim. I imagine SFXT probably dulls the instinct to do that though, because back + LK is just LK in that game.

Oh, and I feel the need to recommend EX Yoga Blast again. It's such a good move. It's fast, invincible and allows you to either run away or go for an ultra/teleport shenanigan after it hits.

There is very little you can do against the twins in fairness. You just have to try and land as many pokes as you can before they get in and savagely kill you, and every anti-air attempt is a risk because they can stop their jump short and dive kick instead. I also think random select is a bit hard on 'sim, because you don't get much time to get a feel for the match up or how to deal with each character's approach before it changes up completely.

JLM, diplomat to the people.

Thanks for all that. Annoying thing is I know when I'm doing stupid stuff and can't stop myself doing. I think I probably just need to start playing more again.

Although after last night, I actually felt like my game is completely broken and that I should start afresh with a new character. But every time I've tried that in the past, I get basically nowhere.

Back to Strekken then.

Not yet, but I think Capcom would be mad if they weren't cheap or free by the time the game comes out. Capcom is mad, though. Personally I'd give the game away on PlayStation Plus, too.

Anyway! It's Wednesday, which means a new Imp-thing. There's also this Street Fighter X Mega Man review, which I'd also like to highlight for secret reasons.

And with that, I am going to buy some coal, light a fire and play Dark Souls. It's all sort of fitting, really, when you think about it.

After the Sith T-Hawk nightmare I did promise myself I'd switch to Blanka if I ever went 4-0 down again, so you never know.

Donut, you should definitely buy both of those games. In fact, does anyone fancy forum Sonic Kart tonight? That would be the best. I can actually chat when I play that, too, as my pad doesn't have a broken off bit of headset jack stuck inside it. We could do it after I beat Taurus Demon, which I'm sure won't take me long.

No one better counter pick me with the green fuck, I have Balrog waiting for anyone who does. Or Sagat.
