Unless that still makes me wrong??

It does. However, we have this Super Smash bros. Melee, which is the Best Game.

If you're new to this and enjoy the street fighter stuff may I suggest going back and giving the marvel vs Capcom 3 and guilty gear xrd top 8's a watch

Edit: and the pools for both of them too, they were both fantastic

ChaosReaper: Feb 19, 2005; When a man lies he murders some part of the world. These are the pale deaths which men miscall their lives. All this I cannot bear to witness any longer. Cannot the kingdom of salvation take me home?

What a loving segue that was.

I definitely will, thanks! Xrd looks like a neat game, but it's intimidating thinking about the several thousand hours of muscle memory I'd need to be something other than a flailing chump.

I watched a bit of it. I played MvC in the very distant past, so I understood some of the mechanics like the character swapping, but good gravy that game is visually noisy.

It's not as many hours as you think it is, as long as you can practice consistently. 20 mins a day does a surprising amount.

Xrd's the only game in the lineup I play, I went into EVO this year expecting to only care about Xrd to be honest. But I think I'll stick around for this
