Money's that tight, huh? SC4 is only like 7 dollars used on Amazon. (Which is honestly kind of shocking)

*cries* I paid 80 dollars for it. :(

Maybe next month then. I haven't started working yet and I did just have to fix my computer.

I got mine for free

The worst part? I can't wait to hand Namco another 80 dollars of mine on Jaunary 31st. :D

And... here is where I gripe about Critical Finishes. Did anyone think these were a good idea? I never DC online unless someone beats me with these -- that's not a win, it's a bypass of the entire structure of the game, and one that would never work without the insufferable lag online adds to the equation. It's actually really difficult to punish someone who's going for a CF because they don't play like a normal person at all, it breaks my rhythm horribly.

Also, to keep exploring the Sieg topic, I find I have the most trouble with characters who can just keep up an endless string of attacks, as his interrupts are kind of limited. People like Maxi and Taki are hell for me as Siegried. Amy probably would be, too, but I know her inside-out and those match-ups tend to become hilarious once I learn how they use Amy.

Which brings me to another point. I almost always lose the first round, since I spend it trying to size the opponent up and learn how they fight. Does anyone else play this way?

and for me it kind of kills the moment of killing someone when all you want them to do is to defend themselves throughout the round.

But to tell you the truth the Critical finishes are pretty cool

Well, the animations are cool. Have you seen how they changed them in 5? They're called Critical Edges now, and they don't instant-kill, they just do a lot of damage, and they're based off of the new Soul Gauge. You can only do them when the meter is at at least level 1. They actually add an element of strategy to the combat, instead of making it boring and cheap, while still looking (even) cool(er).

no I haven't seen i in 4 the only way you can get to critical finish is when you put the opponents soul into shock technically

I know how they work in 4. People tend to notice I'm vulnerable to them because I block a lot. :p

Though, they notice I'm weak to throws a lot more...

I don't really I just throw...do you wanna play SC4?

As in right now? Sure! I'm bored out of my mind here. :p

ok, I just got to get started

I set a room up and sent you an invite, don't know if that works when you're offline or not. Let me know, I'll send another.

Yea I found you ^_^

I suck at it and I need to make my shirt

Lol, no more Amy from me, she's not fair. :p Sieg, either, since I'm so good with him.

I'm gonna try some people I need practice with. Like Nightmare! :p

Sorry for winning so much, Echo, I was trying to go easy. I'm just conditioned to duck throws, guard impact, and such.

Still, I had fun, hope you did too. A lot better than fighting strangers in ranked and wanting throw my controller through the tv. :p

it was better than fight with a computer. that was easy?! I just love the fact that I ringed you out with 2 hits.

I kind of mash buttons and you can probably tell
