Street Fighter X Tekken (PS3/360/PC)

[ETC]

Well when someone can get you in a combo, juggle you for ages, switch character, do the same thing, switch character again etc- it gets pretty boring. Scaling or no, it's possible, and quite frankly makes the game infuriating. Considering it seems to be the tactic of choice right now, the game just annoys me so far.

I've come up against alot of teams of Rufus & Hwoarang, and Kazuya and Heihachi who seem to be able to do just that. Quite possible it's either the new fighting game thing where everyone spams a move they know will work until people learn, or that I'm just crap, but either way it's seriously hampering my online enjoyment.

It's quite possibly me, I'm certainly not very good at it at all. It looks like SF4, but doesn't play like it at all, and honestly it's throwing me off. A different art style to 4 may have been a good move IMO, helps to distinguish things a bit more rather than looking so similar- but possibly that was the point in the project.

I certainly haven't put a great deal of time into it, but had a second try since then and just ha the same things happen, maybe I'll spend some more time offline before I entire back out. But honestly, I'm just not enjoying it half as much as I thought I was going to, and can really understand why people are selling their copies already.

Only two words for you to stop that Juri, Asuka. That will do the trick, I still don't like it though gonna get shot may revisit on vita when bugs are ironed out properly

This is really clicking with me. I'm enjoying this very much.

I've played some online games with a friend of mine as Kazuya and Heihachi, trying to learn the game from scratch. It's working exceptionally well. Researched a few day 1 combos and I'm sitting pretty at 652BP.

I'm running with Super Easy Input assist gem, and two increased power gems. For those learning the game, that Super Easy Input gem is a REAL opportunity to deal some big time damage and learn some good combos.

Tried some more, still don't like it shame everything looks nice just doesn't feel right oh well

What parts are you struggling with?

What parts are you struggling with?

I'm just not feeling it tbh, happy with my pair (Juri, Asuka) won my fair share when the lag is not killing me, it just doesn't feel right to the point where I turned it off and put KOF 13 back on, I couldn't simplify on the gem system was using damage x2 an a speed mod but just not really enjoying the way it plays which is a shame

[Silvergun X]

Fair enough I suppose.

Fair enough I suppose.

I am going to persevere over the weekend so hopefully it will click

I'm happy to team up with you for some online matches.

Loving this, despite the sound issues online. Really hope they can fix it. I understand the mechanics behind this and SFIV but I've never been one to master massive combos or anything. I feel this game is in the sweet spot for me as the easier links and addition of chain combos means I can actually do them in this game. Only had the game a day but I've finished the trials for Ryu and Ken and nearly done Poisons. I'm dead chuffed as most of the SF4 trials I got to the last 2 for most characters but couldn't do em.

Right now the customisation options are poor. The 2 stock colour schemes are about all you'll want from the default outfits, leaving the only option being to turn everyone ash black with white hair. There are colour packs coming, which will be free apparently, so why don't we have them now? I don't imagine people turning the game back on because they can make their Dhalsim pink. Anyone not clued up on what dlc is coming for this, check this out. There's a huge amount of updates coming; extra characters, colours, costumes and even those easy input combos (LK+HP / LP+HK) have been found on the disc. The combos can gtfo but I'll have the costumes, they look great.

Angry Joe addressing Capcom's fan-service attitude. both funny and sad at the same time...

This definitely seems to be that sweet spot between Street Fighter IV and Marvel vs Capcom 3. It's a lot more combo heavy than SFIV, and a lot less frantic and crazy as MvsC3.

I'm finding this an absolute pleasure to play. The online co-op in ranked matches is absolutely sublime in my opinion, and I've had so, so many fun games with a mate. We're up to around the 1600BP mark together now.

Only had time for a quick go last night but first impressions are surprisingly good. Doesn't feel too far in favour of MvC's madness but different enough from SF to be worthwhile. The Tekken characters are definitely the stars here though, the SF ones being pretty boring through over familiarity

Yeah man totally agree! Anyone else bored of the online team selection!?!

Ryu/Ken/Akuma pick your order, rinse and repeat!

Personally I pick Heihachi and Kazuya I think they are slightly over powered with their mixup game and combo potential, but they're great fun to use!

It's funny. Myself and my mate roll Kazuya and Heihachi too, but we're rocking easy input gems.

Watching the opponent try to fireball only to be met with an infinite wavedash that screams through their projectiles is FUNNY.

The amount of people we've had screaming at us for it is brilliant.

Anyone know when the Vita version is to be released.
