I dare someone to do combos on sf4 on iphone..... The iPhone does have some combo quirks - they faked the juggle system, and an input buffer has been added to make links mashable. Most notably, everything is VERY easy to do now. Check this out: Guile: Flash Kick, focus cancel, EX flash kick (2 hits...

I'm sure I'll buy and play this game when it comes out. Until then, there's not much point in eagerly lapping up every whiff of speculation. I did that with OMF Battlegrounds (and other games) and the final product turned out to be very little like the original concepts. I'm glad they're making a se...

That is pretty geeky, not gonna lie. I mean, L5R isn't even mainstream among card gamers. Although from anyone on this forum, that's the pot calling the kettle black. I'm also looking forward to the final product, though, as I love "concept" videos.

Familiarity is a large part - I got into OMF because there were no local arcades and it was the only decent PC fighter, and Guilty Gear because it was the only game in the genre everybody reliably owned. What I look for is a game or character that won't punish me for having bad execution skills, a v...

Midway through the beta test of OMF:BG, they slowed down all special movement by maybe 40 percent and added a stun bar penalty to running and jumping. For a game fought inside cavernous arenas made for 8-16 players, where the only way to reliably hit an opponent was to circle around behind them, thi...

YouTube apparently has like a million of these clips, many of them mine (like that first Shredder combo). I've had various people want to put my clips on Youtube, but nobody actually emailed me saying they'd done it - this is a nice surprise. :) The Electra 34hit combo is pretty hilarious, but is ac...

Having traded in my copy of CvS2, I look forward to watching everybody else's submissions. :-P Meaty moves in OMF 2097 often have totally different properties than the regular moves, or can be used in unexpected ways: Nova's fierce (a quick uppercut) knocks down only as a meaty attack. Katana's slid...

Grounded / Airborne is a fairly big deal in OMF Battlegrounds, because one character's anti-air only hits airborne opponents. This means that there aren't too many moves that have the wrong flag set. For example, although Pyros' "lariat" spin actually hits lower than some of his normal att...

In the same spirit, in an OMF 2097 one-player game, your first opponent is always the pilot whose position on the select screen matches the position of your robot on the select screen. For example, if you are in a Thorn (top middle), your first opponent will be Milano (top middle). If you're in a No...

Asking permission is always nice, but if I can't get ahold of someone, I'll just make it clear that this is not my own brilliant flash of insight while the combo is going on.

My copy is in good condition but it's missing everything but the CD, because I'm lazy and I don't use jewel cases anymore. I have no idea how much these things sell for, but I would rather see it go to a good home :-P I had the PS2 version, but sold that too after I realized that nobody in my area (...

On a related note, I have a copy of DC MvC2 that I am looking to get rid of...

Classical music has its share of snoozefests too - even decent stuff like Carissimi's Jephte oratorio has some extraordinarily boring movements that are just there to churn through the required text. A big reason classical is so respectable is that all the bad stuff has been weeded out. In a couple ...

Points are only fun when they're arbitrary anyway.

Re: first post on GameFAQs - more whining about internet popularity contests. Unpopular Games: My OMF guide has 6295 hits, ever, and took me several months. I am still discovering errors that no one else ever noticed. Mildly Popular Games: My Supreme Commander FAQ came out on day one and took me 40 ...

Some preliminary trials with the DOSBox video recorder: I can't get these things on youtube (either codec problems or size issues), but Winamp can watch DOSBox's AVIs just fine. This is I think the only format I've ever seen that VLC just won't play. http://robyrt.coolserver.net/omf/2xthrow.avi - Do...

I didn't know you'd played around with this game... The "fake quarter circles" trick also applies to half-circles, which are db,d,df,f or the reverse. I didn't know the double special move trick - I just knew that Shadow can chain his specials into each other or themselves, so you can just...

For those of you who had a PC in 1994, you may remember this fighting game. I've spent a lot of time playing around with the system, but I'm generally terrible at combos - I have lots of replays but they're mostly just bread-and-butter stuff. Hopefully this blurb will get people interested in messin...
