I don't know how anybody can tolerate the laggy fba ggpo uses. Can't get that to feel right no matter what I try.

I've never tried fightcade, but I hear good things from friends.

who here has an xb1 and regrets getting it?
I have one and I don't regret it. Same deal with my PS4 (even though I sold it on Monday).

The console I've owned that I'm closest to regretting is my Wii U - I don't like the gamepad at all and I can't even trade it in without having to go through bullshit for the two digital games I have.

Hm it's based on the PSX port. Oh well.

Fightcade is the exact same thing as ggpo, except with no port forwarding/adobe air. Also slightly worse connectivity. The guy who made it mentioned possibly updating to the newer version of fba or shmupmame, but I hear shmupmame guy doesn't reply to anyone anymore.

W/o my interview y'all wouldn't eem be doing these lists

Dude, seriously, where the hell do you even get these images?????

I played ST for a few weeks 2 months ago and it was so fun. What I really enjoy about this game :

1. Matches are going fast
2. There's so much damage it's ok to lose and try again
3. The game is fast and fun. Damn just play Ryu in ST with sweep light tatsu dancing... <3
4. All things are tight and hard but not that complicated to be honest. The hardest thing is reversals between light attacks.
5. Footsies are soooo much harder but so much fun. I remember doing 20 matches Ryu vs Zangief and the spot between being too close and too far was so small but so vital you HAVE to keep it and it makes the game much more demanding... And fun.

Wow, I might pick this up competitively and start a scene in my area if people are interested enough!

Best last gen capcom fighter

You mean Mahvel? I agree.

my body is ready

Yoooo, hook a homie up with a copy! The struggle is too real atm lol

I came for the salt, I stayed for KYOOJJJIIIIIIII

Just get used to the Vita, its buttons and pad are superior.

Surely you jest jetman. Plus, I play Wolverine, I'm gonna break that magnificent piece of hardware in half.

Well, she's technically 28 in 3.0 and they gave a sort of explanation for it....so yeah. Keep the status quo, get that figure and hug pillow money.

Slightly off-topic, can possibly lead to PM's, where the hell do I start on this series? I really wanna get into it cause of how weird it is. Never knew she had an eyepatch... is this series still going on? I'm so out of the loop.

The true way to watch Evangelion:

1. Watch the tv series, every episode. People saying "nono skip the last two" are dumb.
2. Watch End of Evangelion.
3. Watch the Rebuild movies
4. (optional) Get mad at Rebuild 3.0. Really really mad with 3.0.

Enjoy, yams!

You can start with the TV series then watch the End of Evangelion movie.

There are also the Rebuild of Evangelion movies which are still incomplete (upto 3 movies done now). They are like an alternate re-telling of the events of Evangelion. You should definitely watch these after the TV series because the pace is faster and they don't take as much time with the characters and world building.

The TV series combined with EoE is a classic.

There are some things that make Rebuild not just a simple retelling of Eva tho :v
Like the blood on the moon

Will do, I remember watching it as a kid and it completely left me speechless. Lets see if time has done any good/bad to it.

I know about all that stuff but I didn't want to spoil it or hint something. When it was first showcased it was definitely a rebuild/remake but now it is diverging.

Also Yams you will probably appreciate it more as an adult. I saw it as a kid and was just mind fucked, unable to appreciate the subtleties and themes in the show.

Time will never do bad to Eva. That is unless Anno somehow fucks up 4.0 so badly that it retroactively destroys Eva.

Is it really dumb how she gets the eye patch? All I remember from the characters is how Eva and the wimpy kid were sexually frustrated or something lol. Mind you, the last time I saw the show was probably 12 years ago.


I still get goosebumps from listening to this lol

That's what I'm hoping for. Another other 90's recs you can give me aside from Yuyu Hakusho, Kenshin and DBZ?

She just...comes with the eyepatch. It just happens, much like the entirety of 3.0. Things just happen.

I recommend Revolutionary Girl Utena and Nadia.

Don't watch Rebuilds first. It's not as good.
