Awwwww... I used to play that way when I was 9 years old. "Heh, I can do a fireball motion. That means I'm good at Street Fighter." :smug:

This really was the standard in my group when SF2 came out. I remember the first time I saw a guy doing actual combos with Guile in the arcade it blew my tiny mind, It was like Jesus Christ himself had come down to play.

I never had an arcade growing up, so I never even really knew that competitive fighting games was even a thing until SF4 came out. Before the Internet, we'd pretty much just throw fireballs and do the amazing combo of jumping roundhouse into sweep all day.

Luckily though, we actually have a decent arcade with a scene here now, so it's better late than never. Though there's this one guy who is basically like a fat(er) black DSP who gets pissed off and makes excuses constantly whenever you beat him. *tries to do a jump in and gets anti-aired for the millionth time without learning* "drat it! It's because of the arcade stick! I didn't mean to do that!" *gets punished for doing a wakeup ultra* "Ugh that would have hit if it weren't for lag!"

Anyone know what time this is actually playable on PS3? Midnight EST time tonight? I'm not familiar with how PSN does their releases. I figured I'll just get it on PSN since I don't want to re-up my XBL subscription. Good thing I have a disc for Super lying around.

Midnight EST, may take a couple min later as PSN gets hammered.

If you preordered, it may already be downloaded with a time lock for 12 am.

I'm not very good at street fighter but I've played it since 2. There's nothing more satisfying (to me) than getting a nice rhythm in with Chun Li's strong punch (fierce punch? the really strong one) and wrecking the poo poo out of someone with it. It's fast, goes across 1/3rd of the screen and fucks people up. Just press that loving button again and again with a .75 second gap in between presses. it's the best.

In SF terminology, "strong punch" = "medium punch" and "fierce punch" = "hard punch".

Also all of Chun Li's buttons are good moves :D

That always confuses the poo poo out of me so I try to refer to them as Medium Punch and Hard Punch or MP and HP but every time I read some kind of guide that doesn't use abbreviation I always have to decipher it with a glossary.

The old-school terminology is dying out, but yea I can see how it can be confusing. You get used to it though.

Gets unlocked at 12am EST, but it's about a 5GB download. You should still be able to pre-order it and actually be able to download it now and just wait for it to get unlocked at midnight.

EDIT

Actually, the update is only 3.5GB. With the other items - pre-order costumes, compatibility pack, theme - it's about 4GB total.

I can't answer this question but I was gonna say that one of the reasons I want to try out Elena is so that I can try to troll people online by timer scamming her healing ultra during the last second of the match. :laugh:

Everyone had a different version of SF2 for Genesis or SNES when I was growing up. It'd basically be shooting hadoukens at each other and cr.lk or cr.mk'ing each other, but it was hella fun.

For Marvel 1, I used to bring a piece of notebook paper with scotch tape on it to tape it to the cabinet to play, and played nothing but Ryu/Wolverine or Ryu/Megaman, since they were my favorites. I really miss those days, even when people would destroy me with the War Machine infinite.

I'm getting that message too but the game still works fine if you just ignore it. I assume it's trying to load my Ultra pre-order but since I don't have the unlock key it's complaining. Hopefully I'm right and that goes away after I get the key.

I get that, too. It also forgets I have AE and reverts to Super.

This happened to me too. Glad to hear I'm not the only one. Was a little concerned when all the AE characters got locked out...but hopefully it'll all get fixed tonight when Ultra unlocks.

So I bought a copy of Super AE and pre-order Ultra. I've got Ultra Downloaded already and installed though I know you can't access it yet but now when I start up AE I get a "Failed to Load DLC" message. Is this because Ultra's not available yet or is there some other problem?

No idea, if it's an Austraila copy then definitely not, since there is an issue with the rating board there and it won't be updated- they're stuck with retail copy only.

I got curious when I first preinstalled it, and I found that it was the Super Street Fighter 4 file that had increased in size, which probably also explains why the update messed up the AE and AE2012 updates for PS3 users.

After downloading and installing all of the Ultra data and waiting until after midnight, none of the DLC loads.

That's cool PSN, the Kickstarter model of taking money and not sticking to timelines was too cool not to copy, right?
