Setting aside all of the gameplay impressions and videos that have already posted, demo is literally dropping tomorrow.

My out of shape ass is back on his push up grind. Let's see how long it lasts.

The SF6 Thread: Mena Won Evo Japan!
Darc_Requiem replied to misterBee's topic in Fighting Game Discussion
I can only imagine at your skill level. I don't have much to lose when I take time off, but I can't imagine how your timing get's off. I was practicing comboing into CA2 from Cr.MP before I started looking for matches. Finally got it down, got into that set and dropped it everytime. Side note: I know it's been brought up before, but damn the scaling is weird as fuck in this game. It's easier just Cr. MP into CA2 than say doing a jump in to Cr. MP into CA2. Yet the damage is higher from doing the former. Make that make sense. The harder of the two should do more damage ๐ -

I guess he ran out of fat chicks to fap to. Edit: Damn Kieran Culkin was wishing he was Captain Kirk in that clip. -

Played SF6 for the first time in a while last night. I had a nice set against a Guile player. It was fun. I still feel weird playing Cammy though. -

These Diddy catch phrases hit different now. "I thought I told you that we won't stop" "Take that. Take that" ๐คจ -

The PC Gaming Thread, no console peasants allowed

The MSI Claw is just a bad product. It seems the lower end model performs the same as the high end one. I hope Intel cut MSI a nice check because using them in a handheld PC is just not a smart choice. I find it hard to believe, even with MSI's meh relationship with AMD, that they''d choose Intel for this sort of product. Seems like not even bothering with the Claw would have been the best choice. From what I've seen it has lags behind all of its competitors even the Steam Deck with old Zen 2/RDNA2 APU. https://videocardz.com/newz/msi-claw-with-core-ultra-5-135h-matches-155h-version-in-gaming -

In Diddy's case. It, allegedly, wasn't just girls. He was an equal opportunity cheek clapper. -

Prometheus was such a damned waste. I didn't bother with Covenant. I saw so called scientist roaming around an alien world with no suits on in the trailer and was like nope. This shit is going to be stupid as hell too. -

Unfortunately, given the events of the past few years, I instantly doubt people that run to social media with zero evidence that didn't report the crime. Could it have happened? Certainly. Am I going to give you the benefit of the doubt with out anything to back up your claims? No. -

In an industry where publishers are complaining about ballooning development costs. Anything that brings additional cost matters. B-List actors cost far more money to use than no name models. So to fork over that extra cash only to spend more money to make that likeness look nothing like the person. Is the epitome of stupidity. The entire point of face scanning a "famous" person over a run of the mill model is garner more attention to your game and gain more sales. The bet is the additional cost will be more than covered by the boost in sales. Now if the person looks fuck all like their actual likeness. How does that make a lick of sense? It doesn't. It defeats the purpose of stunt casting in the first place. It's been a little while since I play HZD. I did go back an play it when it got the 60FPS patch. Honestly the only thing that I can point to as showing it's age is the facial animation. It's not bad by any means but after playing newer games it stuck out to me. In my initial play through that wasn't the case. I agree with the take you guys have of the combat being better than Zelda but Zelda having the better exploration. I can't speak to Tears of The Kingdom but based on Breath of the Wild I'd have to agree.

@-PVL93-Yeah, they had a set format with SFV. Until they show otherwise in SF6, it makes sense that they'd go with the same philosophy going forward. So 3 men, 1 woman and one of the four characters being new, seems to be the SF6 format. I'm hoping it goes back to 6. I thought the 4 men/2 women setup was ideal. -

They keep taking away what defenders can do. It's ridiculous. The NFLPA, the people that get hip dropped tackled, was against this change. Then you have shit like pass interference where the offensive player either doesn't get called for it, or they call it on the defender. They let offensive tackles, false start on the regular. People always go with the "flag football" hyperbole but at the rate we are going in 20 years it will be flag football. "Personal Foul. Playing defense #27 on the defense. That's a 15 yard penalty and #27 is disqualified."

I think we all figured as much. I mean the lack of Cody is telling. Nakayama made it clear that he pushed for Cody to be on the Season 1 roster. I can't see him not being in the Season 2 DLC. -
Not that this really has anything to do with the topic at hand, but I'll bite. You hire Colin Ferrel because you can't find another actor that gives the performance you'd like. However this isn't a movie. This is a video game. In the gaming scenario you hire a fat model, scan him into the game, and then hire Colin Ferrel for the voice and performance capture. You don't extra money for Colin's likeness. You don't spend extra development time/cost to modify his look into the fat guy. You just hire the fat guy with the look you like for cheaper. I mean this is the way, they used to do things all the time. In gaming there isn't more to it than just being a model. That's literally all you need to have is the look. Capcom literally hires models for their RE games. Then they bring in professional voice actors and performance capture actors to give the performance they require.

Queue the, braindead, "Why does it matter" argument. Like if it didn't, they would not have went out of their way to change it. They pulled a reverse Netflix Witcher on her.

The movie made bank because of Leo. I remember the girls in my class talking about how many times they've seen the movie. It was aburd. I am talking 12 to 14 times between the two I heard talking. It's why I remember it all these years later. I was WTF. I've really liked some movies but the most I can remember going to see movie in the theatre is 4 times. As for Cameron, whatever my issues with the dude, a meticulous attention to detail isn't one of them. He's also very smart. He's an engineer. Didn't he design his own submerisble? I think that came up when those people went missing while trying to view the Titanic wreck. He went into incredible detail on why that submerible they went down in was a death trap.
