Speaking of Chipp, fuck Trial 30.
I never got the hang of doing TKs mid-combo in GG at all, and the fact that you gotta do it off a run string right after wall crumple is ungodly annoying.
And you gotta juggle off of that too so you have to TK at the right height to keep it going and you gotta be close enough for alpha blade to even hit.

Even Bedman's trials with their weird timings didn't give me as much trouble. D:

Damn I love this game.

THANK YOU.
Why can't we have that back as a select theme!?
That might have something to do with licensing issues, actually!
"The Next Door" was originally a song by EXILE, and since there was an english version of it since SFIV, Capcom might have paid for licensing of their song in a one-game use, including new english vocals and a "game" version by Eicheph. (Arcade version's mode select has the I CAN FEEL IT COMIN' OVER ME part in a way that sounds like the character select screen version)

Further proof of this is how the character select theme in SSFIV eerily sounds familiar to how it did in SFIV's last prototypes, when Focus Attack block sounds were CVS2's JD sound, and when the Ultra gauge was next to the characters' lifebar.
It's definitely the case once you hear the "NEW CHALLENGER" jingle since vanilla that sounds like it follows SSFIV's character select theme.

Just reminds me of how much better (looking and sounding) vanilla's character select screen was than Super's.

You can't possibly not see how she takes it much further than Xiaoyu or any character before her has. I really want to believe this is some sort of satire.
She looks like the average custom with Tiffany's voice slapped on, big whoop. Still don't get what the big deal is. :V

Was wondering about something..its not directly Tekken 7 related but...

Harada writes is he was working on the Tekken series since 20 years but he is not credited anywhere in Tekken 1 and only got a special thanks in the credits of Tekken 2.

Does someone knows in what a form he was working on Tekken 1 and 2?
He was Law's voice in those early days IIRC.

fighting style looks fun as fuck, like lili^capoeira but even better.
Yeah, playstyle looks real fun.

Quite frankly I don't get what everyone's getting mad about about when we have Xiaoyu who's been quite frankly as bad for as long as since her T4 redesign as some generic ass genki girl with a sick fighting style. So I don't really get the difference here outside of her being a westaboo judging from her voice.

Plus we're talking about a series where you play as bears, boxing kangaroos and raptors, edgy devils, big niggas from outer space and a reanimated wooden puppet that speaks in knocks. I think this design is pretty fucking normal by comparison. :V

Was actually gonna mention her but was afraid to go off-topic because she's mostly a model/TV person.

Genuinely wondering if she still plays SF because it's been a while since we've seen her at any even actually competing.

I remember there was Chari, a Blanka grandmaster who also played one hell of a Vice in CVS2.

Haven't heard of her in ages, though.

His IKs have always been randomly generated haikus.
They don't usually make sense.

In XX he could say something like:
Quote
Once I knew a man
Struggling vainly, was stunned
Hit by May 6P
If you were lucky. Because that one makes sense. :V

I got used to Ky. His voice fits the character (even if it is just Flynn from ToV), just that he sounds different. I've personally no problem with him anymore but I can see why people wouldn't like his dub voice if they've had history with GG.
Spoiler: More here (click to see content)
I can live with this dub, though. Reminds me of older dubbed anime days, super corny and inappropriate. Almost charming, really. :D

I wanted to vote MotW but it was obviously going to be the most popular one anyway so
I voted 5 Special since it never had a console home release.
Technically it did. (NeoGeo AES)
But it'd be great if we had a proper home console release.
Like, not fucked up due to last second censorship slapped onto it.

An uncensored port of VSP with netplay would be a cool thing for PS3.

Been datamining patch 1.01. Posted findings on /v/.
Shit is fun as hell.

They actually made a synopsis of every GG game in the digital manual. I should know, patch 1.01 contains localization files, including an english digital manual and what seem to be dialog files (probably text) and trophy data.

Also Leo's effects and some of his anims come with this patch, he is not fully on-disc DLC, just like Kokonoe.

Oh shit, so does this confirm that the physical and digital JP releases have English in 'em?
I saw the Asia PS blog today and it mentioned "JAPANESE/ENGLISH" so I was just about to go check.

Hotdamn, so buying this shit to(morrow?)night.

Actually I think SFxT's reason was more like it was because the Vita was forced on wireless.

Aww hell yeah Still in the Dark. Sad that its the only GGX track, no "No Mercy" or "Fatal Duel". And no GG1 tracks either, kinda disappointing buuuuut
There will probably be DLC for music. At least I hope.
I would pay a hefty amount for Raven's theme alone. (I love that shit to death godDAMN)

PS3 has a setting that reduces loading times by removing certain background props and effects. Nice thinking Arc.
Any footage? I wanna see how the stages end up looking.

Is solo viable?
No it's not, but I know they were making adjustments to balance that.
Depends, really.
Spoiler: Spoiler'd to save post space (click to see content)

But yo, adjustments? I haven't exactly followed SG news outside of character development and art stuff so if you have a link/source or a quote or even just more details on that, I'd love to hear!

EDIT: yo that sounds hype as fuck
