-I don't know about some of those returning character designs, but it probably won't matter since they're sure to sell a ton of outfits as DLC.

-Really don't know about some of those new character designs, although I like the way JP looks. Hell of a lot better than G in SFV, lol.

Why the fuck are there no SFIII characters?

No Makoto? No Dudley? Fuck you capcrap

The trailer the other day looks stupendous. Also, Luke is growing on me. He looks fantastic in this thumbnail for instance.

Also Tekken 8 since the Bore lost its shit last week

Every time I watch gameplay videos of a new Tekken I'm puzzled how the franchise has survived in sales worldwide when every other 3d fighter has died. As a casual Tekken player that dipped out after like Tekken 5, the series just seems very plain and uninteresting? Compared to like Street Fighter/GG/KoF. And plainness is what killed VF and later DoA.

Rufus · « **Reply #4751 on:** February 07, 2023, 06:45:54 AM »

I think it's because it gained the most momentum out of all of them by taking off alongside Playstation. A shitton of people have fond memories of Tekken 2 and 3, Tekken Tag on PS2 launch, etc.

And what violence is to Mortal Kombat, wacky CG endings are to Tekken. That's value for casuals.

VF is the only game that came off as 'plain' to me, mainly because the character designs never really changed much and customization was kind of meh.

With that Nina footage, Tekken 8 looks a lot like Tekken 7. Pretty big visual downgrade compared to that initial reveal.

The Samurai Shodown rollback beta is up for PC (Steam at least, lol Epic). Tested it out and it needs work for sure, but when I had good matches they were GOOD.

Look at how fucking good these are

Bebpo · « **Reply #4766 on:** March 14, 2023, 05:40:31 PM »

To be fair, DoA has always had the best stage transitions and environment interaction.

Combo-ing people into cars and then juggling them on the way down from the car impact was awesome.

Street Fighter 6 demo is up for PS4 and PS5. Sony paid to keep it exclusive until 4/26 and then it will be up for Xbox and PC.

This demo is awful. You only get Ryu and Luke to mess with (the two online betas had more characters). No online but at least local vs. and CPU vs. is there. No regular training that I could find.

But what makes this awful is the world tour mode. It runs like shit. Appears to be 30 FPS or less when doing fights and this is just unacceptable. I hope this isn't how the final game is going to turn out.

Note that the standard game modes all run at 60 FPS and the character models look much better.

bork · « **Reply #4772 on:** April 20, 2023, 10:30:46 PM »

OK, you can run world tour at 60 FPS- just change the graphics to performance and it's 60.

...On PS5 anyway. PS4 is stuck at 30

Bebpo · « **Reply #4773 on:** April 21, 2023, 01:11:45 AM »

Yeah, everyone keeps saying this demo is bad. Definitely don't want to try this and it being my first experience with SF6.

What's with SF launches lately? SF5 was panned hard at launch and took a while to build back the community and get its rep back. Now SF6 demo's bad so people are going to be iffy going into launch.

Nintex · « **Reply #4774 on:** April 21, 2023, 05:01:47 AM »

I think it'll do fine. It's not like there's many next gen fighting games to choose from.

Why is this even on last gen systems?

But yeah, having not touched a SF in literal decades, I was pretty curious to try this. (I think I even have SFV Arcade Edition as a PS+ freebie, just never tried it)

People seem to like the two betas that came before it. My beef with this demo is that it doesn't have the number of characters that the beta has. It's still worth checking out. Just make sure you put it on performance mode. Do the training stuff and get a feel for how it plays. Maybe check out the stupid world tour mode, Make a goofy character, have a couple of fights and delete it.

Yeah SF6 Demo is bad.

The one thing that the PC demo apparently confirms is that the game scales down well. Runs at 60 FPS on the Steam Deck and it seems like even my seven year old laptop would be able to run it with no problem.

Still live. It's not a beta test so I assume it will be up until at least release?

SF6 open beta is live! Make sure that once you get into a lobby to go into your settings and select your default character and control style. Thankfully they also let you set the control style to apply to all characters. Otherwise you're going to get stuck with being Luke on modern controls. You can also enable rank and casual matches in the settings. If you don't do that, you're forced to just go to the arcade machines that are in the lobby and wait for people for casuals.

They also have Final Fight arcade machines that you can play. Neat little extra.

Any Guilty Gear Strive players here? I've been having a few goes with the game cos its on Gamepass - but it's been so long since I've played a fighter I'm not sure what I'm doing!

I guess the mission mode is a good way to learn some technical fundamentals? Who is a good character for a noob? I've been using Sol Badguy as he a pretty typical moveset (reminds me of Terry Bogard)

I haven't played Strive in a while, but pretty much the whole point of Strive is that the majority of characters are entry level now. Less about big combos and more about normals like Samurai Shodown. Sol's good, Ky's even easier to pick up and more akin to a shoto. But basically go with anyone you think looks cool.

And yeah the mission/training modes are good to get to grips with the systems. Then just go online and fight some people and start to get the hang of it.

Nobody knows what "Garou" is and they called the first game "Fatal Fury Mark Of The Wolves" when it came out on the Dreamcast.

At this point, however, I'd argue that nobody knows what "Fatal Fury" is anymore, either.

The graphics look really good. Best from SNK yet- I thought it was just more-detailed KOF models, but it all appears to be new:
