Ultra Street Fighter IV

All puns and associated humour must be in the correct format. For example:

...and he said "f+MP, cl.MP, cr.HP xx HKCU"!! Lol, ROFL FADC PMSL

[Lyrical Donut]

Fun xx SRSBZNZ

Which brown sauce does Rufus put on his chips?

HP

That sort of thing?

Imagine MW_Jimmy reading the Daily Express in his council house in Burnley, and nodding.

Anyway I watched some wild footage of alioune basically destroying all of new york's best players the other day, which is here:

As a result of this and a few hours fatly fatting in the lab, I now have some thoroughly intense new cammy divekicksetups, which I look forward to mistiming and whiffing on you all. Also I've got a few mixups of my own which I've never seen anyone use probably because they don't work and aren't any good but I'll try them anyway.

[JLM]

Yeah that was good stuff. Also Zeus' Vega has quietly become the best in North America. He's another one I'd like to see get more exposure this year.

[Nate Dogg III]

Jimmy's alright, you guys, I played DOA Ultimate with him - though as I recall the conversation went rather off topic on several occasions.

Mad that he singled us out though, if he thinks I'm splitting an 80-word post across three threads in two folders he's off his mash.

ALISTARR! I spent all of yesterday evening badly assembling a PC. I have stuff to do on it tonight, too, but I can find half an hour to get badly Rufused at some point I'm sure. Are you free?

[Plopboy]

I should be on after 8pm for some match recordings, that is Street Fighter tournament recording just to be clear.

[JLM]

I think some of this unwarranted singling out actually stems from the belief that we couldn't possibly still be talking about Streetfighter IV. I like that.

[Lyrical Donut]

For the record, I have no problem with Jimmy either. He likes Daytona (IIRC), so he's excellent really.

Hello Jimmy! *waves*

[JLM]

Jimmy once went up a tree to rescue my cat but then couldn't get down himself so my cat had to go back up and rescue him, if you can believe that.

Good guy.

[Plopboy]

He also shares his name with Blanka, so he is on topic.

[Lyrical Donut]

[MW_Jimmy]

Haha. Someone needs to set up a Frog Fractions thread though. Seriously.

Erm, I played SFIV once. Yeah.

[mayor_mike_haggar]

You're not a thread regular! Get the hell out of here.

I have no idea what it is but I'm scared to look up MLP: Fighting is Magic...

[Yasawas]

Nice, my copy of Capcom Fighting Jam has arrived today. Am I in for a treat?

[JLM]

It's a good laugh yeah. Urien with access to all three super arts is pretty fucking ridiculous.

[Qazimod]

Shit guys, we've been rumbled

Better not tell him that we've got our own folder in the Online forum that we never use

[mayor_mike_haggar]

Are we any closer to getting divekick on xbl? We need it for heggfest ver 2013

[Yasawas]

Sounds great! I need to either get a decent PS2 stick or make a serious effort at converting what I have into one somehow. Maybe not so much for Fighting Jam but I'd like to give CvS2 and some others a proper go sometimes and using a Dualshock is a big turn off.

[Qazimod]

Haven't seen this posted yet...

[Camel]

I feel like the French resistence telling you this, but I played Demon's Souls again last night, chaps. I got to the Tower Knight on 1-2. Wow what a bastard. I will probably spend all of tonight dying on that level too.

Also, I forgot to post impressions of the Strekken stick now that I have finally got around to using it.

Performance-wise, it feels exactly the same to me, which is of course no surprise seeing as the stick and buttons are the same as the TE. The build does feel slightly more 'plasticky' and perhaps not as break-coconuts-open-solid as the tank-like TE, but it still feels perfectly sturdy and robust. Definitely more so than the Brawlstick. The massive bonus of course is the excellently garish Street Fighter X Tekken artwork.

Rufus/10.

EDIT: oh and I didn't find that episode of Excellent Adventures as excellent as older ones. Don't kill me but I think the format is in a bit of a rut. Gootecks is forever down on himself and seems resigned to constantly losing while Mike 'Mike 'Mike Ross' Ross' Ross mocks him for doing so. Maybe it's just me.

Also, didn't they used to win more?

That said, whenever I play online these days I seem to get beaten consistently as the level seems to have been raised ridiculously.

EDITEDIT: I realise comparing myself playing online to MikeTecks playing online is stupid.

[mayor_mike_haggar]

I should have bought a new TE over christmas, for no other reason than I could. does that place still have them on offer? Where was it, even, that was selling them?

Either I buy a new one or take the current one to bits and replace some of the slightly withered old buttons

[Camel]

Replace the buttons! I have orange ones in my TE now. And a scratched up bit of plastic at the front because I am an idiot.

[Camel]

Store is here, but it all seems to be back to the old prices now.

I bought 2 TE sticks when they were released so when friends came over we could play lots of Street Fighter.

This has so far never happened.

In other news my gf's dad was round while I was watching the football through Sky Go on the xbox.

A notification popped up during the game.... "what's a joffocakes?"

I use an old PS1 Namco stick, it seems to do the job fine on the PS2

I managed to pick one up at a car boot for £1

[Camel]

I have one of those too. They're pretty excellent. Last time I looked they seemed to be going for about 50 quid on eBay :/
