Feel free to have a match with me over PSN.

It really does depend on the latency between Aus and Florida in the USA. You are practically on the other side of the planet from me.Evran (post: 1291544) wrote:I would love to have a match, though being in Aus prevents that due to latency :/.
It is no contest when it comes to fighting games considering this genre was originally designed for arcade stick controls. You want a stick. You will be faster, more accurate in your movements, and pulling off combos and special moves will be dramatically easier. And your thumbs and hands will thank you since a stick is not as grueling on your hands as a pad would be.Evran wrote:Just curious by the way, what is your honest opinion on using a pad vs a stick (and in particular, your Sanwa stick)?
I see someone is doing their research, and it warms my heart.Evran wrote:One last thing, I've been looking into making a stick myself the past few days, all Sanwa parts as well (the JLF stick with OBSF-30 buttons). Which gate would you recommend using? I'm pretty set on the square gate at the moment, though I've heard good things about the octo gate.

I want to see friend requests in my box, pronto.
Also, I'm stoked because I've just beaten the game for the third time on Hardest. I need to get an arcade stick, though. My left thumb is hurting like a word I shouldn't say on here.

This is the stick you want, Kkun. Before you wince at the price, remember this is actually a bargain. Real deal Sanwa arcade parts. And the Street Fighter IV Pro circuit uses these sticks. Also, remember you can use it for all the fighting games you have and coming out. Your thumbs will thank me.
Also, on a related note, there will be a video documentary released (for free) called I Got Next that chronicles the Street Fighter IV pro circuit in the USA. Here is the trailer.
Search for those player names on youtube, and you will eventually get some cool match videos and tips on getting better at your game. "Gootecks" is one competitor who likes to share expert knowledge and awareness of the pro circuit.

....okay, forgive my "fangirling". I'd get it myself, but... eh... cash flow's been scarce.
