oh yesssssssss

I wish the latest ep was released on consoles... it uses Nesica x Live, so it cannot be dumped, it streams game files through optic fiber instead of being on the HDD. Sucks because in that game they FINALLY rebalanced the broken as fuck characters.

I wonder if they finally realized that Otanes qcf qcf C super can isntakill the opponent if you counter a dash move with it.

Savior 2 and Hunter 2 (two halves of the same game) are usually considered pretty bad. People stick with the original Vampire Savior. Some even still prefer the second game in the series, Night Warriors/Vampire Hunter.

Aside from it being split into 2 ganes, which means that you have to switch between games depending on who you want to play as, and some matchups are impossible: Throw invincibility was removed making tick throws and throw traps really strong, midair chain combos were removed which hurts the air game a lot, some characters got severe nerfs (notably Q-Bee), Huitzil's Gradius mode is broken, and lots of combos from dashes were removed.

Funny thing is she had that button input before Akuma did. In fact when Akuma actually became able to use the Raging Demon in Street Fighter Alpha, lots of Japanese players jokingly called it the "Goukiness Illusion".

anyone else feels that to get into fighting games you have to play with a buddy , while getting crunk more often than not? it was like that in college for mk2 and a bit of mk3 but then i lost interest. can't get into it , the computer is always (annoying/ hard in a lame way/ cheats too much/etc) even after i had master mk2 i thought the computer was a shit opponent. i don't think i really miss those days, it would be awkward to get someone over to play a game like that at my age... i should get marry with a local fattie make a kid and mow my lawn.

The problem with playing against the computer is that you can't really read his moves, or trying to figure out how he thinks, it's a fucking computer, and sometimes their response time is ridiculously unfair. It just really isn't fun playing against the computer, but then again if you don't find a player that's on your level it's not fun either

To this day that game has my favorite story mode ever. I love that every character has between-match inserts that make each fight seem like a TV episode. It's also funny hearing the voice of Duke Nukem come out of a super sentai hero.

just tried other Sailor Moon fighting games besides superior SNES one

the one in playstation has pretty bad gameplay and design wise, i knew what i was getting myself into. I gave it a chance because it is the sequel of the SNES one.

and the other one was in 3DO, pic related,
it has better visuals than SNES
but game system mechanics turned to so much shit

I guess SNES Sailor Moon fightan is still the best
