I just got Street Fighter x Tekken today. I'm sticking with my forecasted team of Juri (My Street Fighter main) and Lili (My Tekken main) I'm enjoying it so far, but it takes a while to adjust to. No one is ever online though. Apparently the online community is next to non-existent.

Obligatory VF5:FS discussion time.


Got the base game for $15 and bought customization pack 1 so far for another $15. Can't afford pack 2 at the moment but I'll get it next paycheck since Jacky was in 2 and Brad in 1 and i wanted both and figured I'd support Sega and VF.

Anyway, achievements are basically the easiest achievements I've ever seen in any game. Already killed 80% of them in the first half hour of playing. Only have 3 left to get which will be a breeze to get later on when i play again.

Game itself wise, I'm not a fan of the new soundtrack. I like the old one better. Switched it back to VF5 so I can have Aurora theme play properly and not that new crappy generic one.

Brad's as badass as ever though they changed up quite a few of his moves that I used to heavily used and now I either can't find them or I've noticed they're limited and altered now.

Before you used to be able to do a slip back into a fake out punch at will, now it seems you can only do it during a combo. I used to catch a lot of people off guard with the slip fake and hit them as I dodged back and they tried to push forward. Shame i can't use it anymore like that. A lot of Brad's gameplay with his slips and dodges makes him very tricky and that was part of it.

Also noticed i can't seem to do his double knee launchers anymore. It looks like they just combined it into a basic double knee combo kick. But it doesn't have the same impact, strength, setup or feel. Rather than slip into one powerful knee launch into another. Now he kinda just does a quick double knee combo on command without a slip. It's pretty basic and no where near as useful because you can't slip into it.

A lot of his BnB stuff works just like it did before but some of it changed a lot too. Some for the better, some not so much. I love the guy and really enjoy playing him still. But, it's gonna take some time to adapt to these changes because there was some solid stuff I used to heavily use in my game before that's just flat out gone now and I need time to adapt and find replacements.

Still a fun game overall. Shame the ps3 version seems to have the bigger crowd this time around though.

Still downloading customization pack 1 though. It's taking foreeeeeeeeeever. Can't wait to dick around with it though. Always loved the customization options in 5 and FS adds so much more. Customizing characters is one of my fav past times in any game.

Sure man, I'm down for whenever. Game has really good netcode. What I also like is that they allow you to have as many customization slots as you want.
