What's up everyone? Huge fighting game fan here, hope to see you guys around the site!

I can't believe Capcom named a character after me lol. 
 
It feels like a spiritual successor to 3s with the hip-hop music and backgrounds. 
 
Interesting it's on PS4 and PS5 but necessary with the console shortage.

Discuss.

Take-Two is being a shit
 
 
 

Ken's got it worse than Alex. He's no longer the number 2 of SF or "Ryu but more flashy". Akuma overshadows Ken both in terms of popularity and flashiness. Ken's biggest showing was in Smash Ultimate and that's only because he's a pallet swap, meanwhile Akuma continues to appear in more games, and KOF All Stars will be on his resume. 
 
Akuma can appear in a game without Ryu (Tekken 7 and Monster Hunter Rise) but Ken can't because he's not on that level. Notice how nobodies asking where Ken is in the SFVI teaser...times have changed.

That collection is insane and it releases on my birthday! What a gift!

Picked up Hades last night. Very addicting gameplay loop, lots of fun. The spear seems to smoke all the other weapons I've tried so far.

y'know, I'm the only person probably that would've been amused by this...but I would've liked if the legendary QWOP dude showed up in Smash Ultimate
^ha, the memories... I remember laughing 'til I cried when I first saw this shit.
 
...but yeah, imagine the move set... he would just be ragdolling around the arena and those odd raggedy movements would be his moveset.
*Man, I'll just make him as a Mii character, actually...

With her, Shermie and Luon, my "I am playing with one hand" team is complete, praise SNK

Welp....

Uff, you missed a lot of great stuff.
Like noobs and scrubs arguing with top players on the forums about the game, and 99% of the time saying they were wrong about why they thought X or Y character was strong/weak on the game.
 
Not saying that top players are always right, but if anyone has a better grasp about the game, is very likely someone who plays at high level than a random dumbass that cries that none respects the old gentlemen rules of old 🤣
 
In part is one of the reasons why most top players left the forums.
What many people who came from 09 onwards don't know is that originally SRK and derivative sites like DL were forums for the competitive side of the community.
but with 09 all of that went out of the window.
 
TBH, while SRK became "toxic" in a way after 09, the site was already very abrassive.
If you were talking dumb shit you would be clowned, so only people with though skin stayed.
After 09, the admins envisioned a more friendly site, so started to make a lot of changes to the site, removing or frowning upon on stuff they considered that shooed away newcomers.
And when they removed the premium side, it is why General became the haven for most people who dwelled there, and the "last bastion" of the old guard that stayed, which is why you could feel a disconnect between the regulars from GD and the rest of the site.
 
There were a lot of 09'ers that became infamous due the amount of crap they spouted and were so certain about it, lol.

Days before the official reveal, more details of Multiversus was leaked. This all seems to be true considering that Garnet and Arya were revealed.
 

 
Interesting and nice that some alternate costumes will have different VAs. Maybe we can have Terry McGinnis Batman as an alt. Two of Harley’s costumes were also posted somewhere.
 

Bruh it's unbelievable how much of a blowup the GTA "remasters" are
 
EVERYTHING is fucked up
- boats are faster
- car handling is different
- swimming is faster
- air vehicle controls are messed up on PC
- the rain effect is a screen space overlay which can show up even when you're standing under a roof
- character models are all terrible (e.g. Rosenberg in vice city, Asuka being crosseyed in III, Pulaski in San Andreas)
- all the classic glitches and bugs are left unchanged and some even were brought over from the mobile versions
- consoles and PCs alike are suffering perfomance issues even on top end systems
- the graphics are in general just shit save for higher res textures on the buildings, cars and weapons
- intro cutscenes in SA and III have massive framerate drops
 
and more
 
all of this on top of the other drama like the incompetent devs leaving vital internal files that are now leaked all over the internet, server issues meaning paying customers could not access the games they paid for throughout the 72-hour period after "launch", and issuing DMCA takedows to fanmade mods that not only improve the original PC versions from two decades ago but are also clearly doing a better job than these hacks
 
it's kind of hilarious how the PS2 versions from the 2000's are arguably still the best way to play all 5 games 

Xbox got so little games they had to delete their account!
 

Mma is such a fucking weird sport. Two former power rangers are fighting

2D characters are really strong and it's pretty a contentious topic. I think they are fun. Obviously due to licensing they might not be here forever but I think it's a good way to get new players (me lol) into the series.
 
Akuma and Geese tods are still really funny but I don't think that's really a problem with 2D characters as much as damage balancing. Season 2 saw damage output go super crazy sicko mode and depending on resources and other factors, could become a 2-3 touch game if playing right.

hahaha look at those character models!  This one guy in the green shirt...where's the shoulders?!

 

Great for Metroid and good to see GoTG still sell in spite of the boat anchor around it's neck that is Marvel's Avengers.

she's r. kelly's soulmate.

I'm in Minnesota at the moment and for the foreseeable future. Can you give me a green card? Or at least pay my rent?
 

Just getting back from vacation and saw the Uncharted movie trailer.  I think it looks ... okay.  Like it could be decent.
 
I agree 100% with the casting being bad though.  Wahlberg trying to put on that stupid "Sully" accent is laughable.  Like just talk like the normal douche you do.  Don't try to sound cool like Sully did naturally.  Just stop it.
 
I also think Tom Holland looks way too young.  He doesn't look at all like that mans man that Nathan Drake is where he can get away with being the cocky funny charming character.  I don't even think Tom Holland can grow facial hair.
 
I remember there being talk about him maybe being young Drake but since the trailer clearly shows parts from the games where he's the normal age, that kind of scraps that idea.
