This is a lot easier than some of the reviews I read yesterday had me believing. Maybe I'm just that good.

Its because you spent the last 10 years playing games that are 10 years old. The control scheme is only awkward for people who've been playing SF4.

Yeah, I know. IV has some notoriously lenient input and hit confirm action going on. I was surprised by how easy it all was when I first picked it up. So most likely 3SO will be my replacement for CvS 2 for the time being. I think the only adjustment I've had to make so far has had to do with getting better control over my Zanku Hadokens. Gill is such an asshole with his resurrection.

The other problem i'm having is i'm not used to the screen moving up following characters.

So have you got this on PS3? Did you buy one in the end?

No, I got it on the 360. Haven't played anyone online yet though since the only characters I remember how to use are the shotos and I want to reclaim my former glory with Urien and own people with a mirror.

AH!

Just remembered that Gill can be hit before his health bar refills all the way. I can't believe I forgot some shit like that.

Since when have you had a 360?

I got one a while ago after I bricked my PS2. I was trying to get MvC 2 to play in it and fucked everything up. At that point I just decided to sell all my game stuff and get a discounted 360 to hold me over.

Of the characters I've tried, I like Urien quite a bit. He seems easier to use than a lot of the others. Chun-li having half-circle motions instead of charges is weird and I don't like it, especially with how strict this game is on inputs.

I just won my first tournament...

Everyone disconnected and i didn't egt to fight. But i still won it.

Well, I am now the #25th most experienced Yang player.
