C'mon now, that sh*t going on with her boobs is just weird.  Concerning her voice - I main 3S Elena and a few other female characters with shrill voices, so I still use them, I just keep the volume low late at night.  At least I'm not one of those. "Girls!  Yucky!" types.

Watching some YT videos of Kimberly she actually seems to have a lot of moves that are similar to Guy.  

STILL HOPE FOR MAKI!!!

Kimberly & Maki don't even have the same playstyle - from what I see at least - Kimberly just seems like an Afroc-centric  version of Ibuki at best.  Not feeling her at all; but who knows, maybe I'll like her better the more I see.  The way things stand atm, I reckon I might use some good character-swap mods that will erase her from MY SF6.  No doubt the modding community is going to have a field day with this game.

I plan to play this game until Daisuke stops being an ass and finally adds Jam to strive.
Plus I am learning hitbox so I'm basically back to square 1

I still like Rev2 a lot better than Strive but if/when they add Jam I'll certainly play Strive much more.  Not sure how her typical rush-down playstyle would work in Strive, which seems to actively discourage rush-down.  Hopefully they'll tone down her voice & boobs just a bit as well.

I've dabbled in Melty Blood a bit, it has a few cool characters - though it seems like 20% of the roster are those strange maids.

Haven't seen them reveal any more characters recently.  Looking forward to future DLC - I really hope they bring Maki back into the mix; it's long overdue for her to be in a game roster again, imo.

Who was the NBA manager who talked shit about China and was quickly made to apologize due to the NBA'S business interests in China? I remember it didn't matter as China ended up dropping them anyway

No one besmirches LeBrown's lords & masters in the CCP and gets away with it.

This game is kinda poppin on PS4/5 though. I wish we could get those numbers. It's a shame this shit didn't have cross play

Makes sense, Playstation has a large base of players who are into anime games & anime style FGs.  I think DNF duel will have essentially the same life-cycle as Granblue Versus: come out with a bit of hype but quickly flame out and be forgotten by the vast majority; it's a bit too "challenging" for casual fans - which is a death sentence for almost all niche games.

And I'm ok with that. Tbh I actually prefer smaller bases of dedicated players to massive ones.

 

But you're right. Plus it's an snk game and no one seems to stick with those too long unfortunately.

Folks just don't understand the sheer joy of playing against an SNK boss back in the arcade days, lol.

I like this game, but I REALLY wish it had air-dashing.

I've never really understand why gamers get so bent out of shape about a fictional character's sexuality.  So funny how the human mind works.  After seeing some Bridget gameplay online I'm sort of tempted to try him out.  He seems to have some really cool set-ups with those yo-yos; reckon  I'll spend some time in the lab with him later tonight.

I don't think rollback will attract many new players. The people who want to play will play and the ones who are on SF6 will play that.

Lack of rollback and/or timing really has nothing to do with it.  SamSho is simply a niche FG within an already niche gaming genre, it will never attract the crowds that the big hitters can - just like Soul Calibur.  Personally I'm overjoyed that they added my main Hibiki from TLB2 to SamSho - an unexpected but most welcome surprise.

What was the reveal about?  Kazuyas face...

 

Tekken 1 remastered, or...?

I'd say it was just Harada & crew trolling people who actually thought there would be any sort of substantial info concerning T8 at the tourney.  I'd be surprised if anything is revealed about the next game before the end of the year & personally don't know why there should be any rush.  Folks might as well keep asking for Tekken X Street Fighter, lol.

T7 in EVO '22 had some great matches as usual.  I know a lot of folks like to complain about T7 but it's currently one of the most entertaining games to watch when you see the pros playing it at a high level.

I'm sure Juri mains are overjoyed to have her dive-kick back.  That seemed to be one of their main gripes during SFV - that & "the censorship".

I have to admit that Juri is looking pretty slick, almost wish I had picked her up as a main in SF4.  Kimberly doesn't do much for me but for some reason her gameplay reminds me a bit of Jam from Guilty Gear - Jam has cooler hair though.
