Street Fighter IV being terrible

[ElectroJosh]

I think I played the Super version and found it a lot of fun. One of the issues I always had with a lot of 3D fighter (Tekken and Soul Caliber particularly) was that a lot of characters had cheap button mashing moves that meant a newbie could take out someone who played it every day (I know because I was often that noob).

SSF4 is not perfectly balanced but still worked well for me (although the 360 control pad took a while to get used to).

Hang on. I just realized that his is an old thread from years ago... weird

Tasty bastard with the gay french guy? GOD that's hilarious! I really hope your Irish or British, that would make it even funnier. Some sort of accent's necessary. Fuck yeah sir, that just made my day!

I'm glad I made you laugh.

I'm sorry to say, I'm French but I live in Londno, and while I've never been an outspoken "France is great" patriotist I do gravitate towards the French characters in fighting games, so gay french man Leon in VF and Le queer Remy in Street Fighter 3.

There is always Abel in SFIV! He's decently manly.

SFIV's input buffer is pretty crazy, but it's manageable. It's really not too bad. Just input more cleanly.

If you want bad controls, play Big Bang Beat Revolve. That shit is unplayable.

Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition is pretty balanced. I don't know what you guys are talking about when you mention "cheap". SFIV can feel scrubby at times, but it's pretty fair.

If you're talking about throws, throws have always been strong in Street Fighter. Anyway, you can easily option select to beat them in SFIV. Just crouch tech. It's as easy as cr.LP+LK.
