Looks neat at trying to make a good version Isuka but be warned. Mike Z is attached to it. Just hope he doesn’t become a super visible element of it.
republicans out there losing their minds about DEI and restorative justice creating a Misandrist Dystopia while videogame CEOs are using it to justify creating a jobs program for one specific sex pest
i hope this game and its financiers fail
I wish I was having fun with SF6, but I’m just not. I don’t think my head is in fighting games anymore.
I didn’t like SF6 Demo. I still like other fighting games, fortunately. = o
Samurai Shodown started a 2nd beta test for the rollback netcode patch, and the game is 90% off as well if someone hadn’t taken the dive yet.
Axel Hawk - Fatal Fury Special (NEOGEO MVS)
Since his only longish-range non-dash attack is df+D (a heavy low punch), he seems intended as a turtle character! Which seemed to work for me, because I had a lot of fun just doing that. ^ _^ He’s got a huge anti-air uppercut on df+C, which I pretty much completely failed to use–fortunately, only a few of the early opponents jumped in at me, really, so that didn’t go as badly as it should have, and mostly I was able to fend people off with df+D, and go after them with jumping D when they seemed off-guard.
His fireball can be really effective, but seemingly as part of his turtle design, you can’t pop up from turtling to throw a fireball, because it will activate the charging rush punch instead, and there’s a good chance you’ll get blocked and counter-attacked.
His jumps are slow but his jumping D seems pretty good, and will even hit twice, maybe if he gets in close enough with it or something; I was also often able to follow with another crouching D. Really satisfying to take someone out with those three crunching blows!
I struggled slightly with him against a few faster, ranged characters, especially Jubei Yamada–but kinda stomped the bosses! Each time Geese tried to Raging Storm one of my jump-ins, that D just smashed him! Which was hilarious because it would hit him right after his “Raging Storm” vocal cue triggered, so he’d be getting crushed by this huge descending double-hit while still yelling “Raging Storm!” ;^D
I’m glad that twitter lived exactly long enough to encompass the entire one day saga of the guy who thought he was a bigger deal than the best MK11 player in the world, and no longer.
Sonicfox won a money match for a man’s dignity, and humanity, and we knew we weren’t going to top this.
I guess you just told the story but what is the story?
Sonicfox mentioned that they were going to be in a chess tournament, and Some Guy felt the sprit of Marvel swell up within him, and quote tweeted them to say that they couldn’t really be that good at fighting games, especially not compared to Some Guy’s 11 years of experience.
So Sonicfox offered him a money match: $10,000 if he wins the match, and if he loses he must become a furry.
It went exactly as you would expect.

I didn’t realise that there was also a rematch afterwards, where Sonicfox instantly mirrormatched every character pick he did.
maybe hes into getting forced furred
this is so fucking funny

Chinese Exorcist / Reikai Doushi
1st game with digitized sprites, according to https://www.giantbomb.com/reikai-doushi/3030-48001/
Reikai Doushi is so interesting… it is also called The Last Apostle Puppetshow and it has a character “Dwarf Wizard” who looks an awful lot like Piccolo.
