Dimitri's Midnight Pleasure, I think it's called, turns male opponents into females, and then he sucks their life energy / blood.
That's the answer I was looking for. And yes, I've owned and played numerous iterations of Darkstalkers/Vampire. Thanks.Quote:

Just watched some of the gameplay vids and I must say it looks quite fun. I love how Hugo has gone from huge to screen filling and the level in that Terry vs Vega(Bison) match looked cool(I'm a sucker for those fight in the water levels). Some of the voices sounded lame(Why not use Iroi's older voice, where he soudned like a deep voiced Jap. and not the freak gimp he's been since 2000), though Terry is still classic, "Bingo!". The gameplay looks very smooth too which is great since I really disliked CvS'chucky movement. Blah blah blah.
No offense, but then, how could you not know that move? It's one of the more classic Darkstalker moves out there.Quote:

Didn't mean to jump down your throat, it's just i'm a huge fan of the DS series, and sadly, alot have people have never played them. Sucks, because Capcom will most likely never give us a Darkstalkers 4.
It's called Midnight Bliss, but that's being picky. I hardly use Dimitri, but it's a fun move to use when I do because it's just so darn silly.
Some of those people make ugly women though :eek:

going from right to left, up to down
1.) Huitzil, Oboro Bishamon, Pyron, Donovan, Morrigan
2.) Sasquatch, Rikuo, Lord Raptor, Talbain, Lilith
3.) Jedah, Q-Bee, Hsien-Ko, Bishamon
4.) Felicia, B.B. Hood, Victor
5.) Anakaris, Demitri
I'm not even going to ask why you have that, and where you got it from.
That's one of my favorite parts of the game!

It's a great series. A lot of people on this board admire the series and have played the shit out of the games, even to the point of initiating a lengthy debate on the merits of Chronicle vs. Saviour.Quote:

Oh yeah. That was one of the best TNL posts ever. People actually BACKED UP their claims with pictures and supported info. Aurora and the others did a great job.Quote:

I love that Mighnight Pleasure move =D I'm kinda curious what Ryu is gonna look like as a girl....that honestly scares me far worse than the price of the game. If I had $1500, I'd buy it in a second. But since I am a lowly student, the PS2 version will suffice.
now, to speculate about what Mai will look like in M.P. mode. Bigger boobs? is that possible? Terry as a girl....*shakes head* I just cant see it happening. Maybe he'll turn into a hand puppet or something.

I highly doubt they are going to produce a cartridge that doesn't work on a standard MVS board. The strength of the MVS is that it's so widely distributed all over the world. Making arcades buy any new hardware would go against the reasons to stick with the MVS in the first place.Quote:

Like you said, hopefully this is just a new chip in the cartridge to boost memory and/or enforce copy protection.
This game keeps gettting better and better IMO. Those new movies look great. I love Dhalsim's rubber arms.
I just wish someone would post a movie with Guile dammit :)

The upgrade probably is an FX chip type of in-cartridge deal; I really doubt SNK is in a position to come up with totally new hardware right now. A chip would let the game look/sound better, still be sold to the thousands of operators who already have an MVS, and best of all, curb emulation/piracy, at least for a little while.
Was anyone able to get the Mai vs. Ken vid. on SC.com before TRIEU took it down?

My favourite is when Dhalsim calls Mai fat to start the fight. :lol:

I love the sheer amount of character that's showing in these dialogues. I'm really more a DEEP TECHNICAL gameplay nerd than anything, but the storyline scrub deep inside me is smiling at stupid little things like what it would sound like if Genjuro and Terry had a brief chat before kicking the crap out of one another. The game itself just looks like KOF with Capcom guys, but being that I never stopped playing KOF98 that probably isn't going to keep me away.
Word. 98's still my all-time favourite 2D fighter. If they just pulled that off again with Capcom guys in it again I'd be ecstatic, but they're going further than that.Quote:

ADDITION!! Apparently, the mid boss you fight (Goenitz and Dan, Dimitri and Geese), are dependent upon the speed you reach them, and the number of exceed attacks you finish a round with. It seems Geese was the hardest to get to, which is why no one found him until now. Just for the record, Goenitz is the easiest to get to.
Geese is the last secret character, as they said there only four, and I just listed the four up above. All of the information up above I pulled off of the mmcafe message boards.
I'm pretty confident SNK will throw in some extra characters in the home port, just to ensure some sales, ala KoF 2002.
Hey folks!
there's going to be a loke test in Tokyo! You know what means? Good footage from my end. Wish me luck.
Definitely count on some hands-on impressions. That's for sure.

Good question.
I've read "later this year", as in around August, and then other reports of December or something like that.
Likewise :)Quote:

You and 7 need to team up to give us our SVC video fix. It would be appreciated! ;)
It's just as well 7 is the one with the camcorder, if it were mine all the footage i'd put up would be of Goenitz and poetry recital by myself on the subject matter of "Goenitz". When Geese comes on the screen i'll break down and cry then throw myself backwards from off the top of the building.
Yeah I love SNK's bosses before 1999.
*turns on Sidez and Seven Force help signal*
Well, I'm not looking to get flamed or anything, because I'm looking forward to this game, but my main concerns were that:Quote:

1) The graphics would be dated.
2) The animation would be choppy.
3) The characters would play just like they have in countless games before.
4) The game system would be near-identical to countless fighters before.
Now, I'm pretty well educated in terms of the history and evolution of fighting games, so I'm not so naive to expect all of those ailments remedied at once. However, it doesn't seem like anything in SvC:C is being improved at the cost of other factors remaining largely the same. It all just seems about the same.
Which is fine, a "new", well-designed fighter is always welcome. I just don't expect to get too excited about it.
ps: Conversely, it's ironically difficult to get excited about any original fighting games, because any game without much pedigree normally sucks hard. *shrug*
But it's by SNK, so it's automatically good!
I hope the Xbox version has custom soundtrack, Ryu vs Kyo to MJ's Beat It would be the best gaming experience ever.
I'm easily pleased sometimes.
Now all I can think of is Kyo and Ryu in leather jackets, snapping their fingers, and dancing around, 80's style.Quote:

Indeed.
I also dislike how they removed his classic deep menacing laugh and gave him one that makes it sound like he's just having a good time.
Almost as lame as Ryu and Sagat being friends in SF2V(Ignoring the fact that the series sucked hard anyway).
I got a chance to play it. Unfortunately, I couldn't get away with any pics since the arcade staff had placed the machine in 'convenient' enough location where I couldn't do jack. Plus pics would do too go from 15 feet away.
*I apologize if you heard any of the following from someone who went to the Osaka beta test*
It seems that Iori fans will get to play him in almost the same way as KOF. One guy had a 40-win streak with him until he was upset by a good Kim player.
The animation is all good. The capcom folks look nice here and most of the SNK crew kinda look recycled. I guess there were animation tweaks, but even so, it still looks nice to me.
It seems that those who are familiar with Iori's style from KOF will get to use him the same way here. One guy was able to pull off a 40+ win-streak! Every once in a while, someone would use a Capcom chara, but the majority of the matches I saw were mostly SNK characters.
This came doesn't have the complexity that CvS did (but that's not saying that's a bad thing). Even with that said, SvC is worth a play.
I think I missed a lot here. Maybe I'll add it when I get back.
I thought you knew about the price already (and were going to buy it regardless)? Either way, my sentiments exactly. I'll wait until Xbox/PS2 verson and buy the NG version when it drops in price.Quote:

Was it even announced for the home cart format? I don't think so. If it is, I'd assume: $330 or around those parts.
88: It will constantly drop. Just wait a few months to see a significant difference, though. Like always.

and if i recall wasnt one of the only formats its OFFICIALLY announced for besides the GBA the AES
If it doesn't come to AES I will cry. No - fuck - I'm serious. Got the tissues ready and everything.
i honestly dont see why it wouldnt
its SNKs biggest release in years and theyre not going to put it on their own home system which is still getting their other games
makes no sense at all
Played this today with 7Force, it`s fucking good. Animation is really nice, backgrounds are cool and Shiki`s sprite is very nicely done. It`s lame the way the Capcom guys have obviously lost a third of their normals but their sprites are damn nice. Shiki has a mean 6 hit chain, the last hit of which can be buffered into either of her supers but she can be sussed out. Right now Kim seems like a solid top tier chara. No idea about the music, the drone of pachinko machines drowned that out.
If you`re a SSF2X or KOF fan then it should appeal. In fact, I think I will go play it again this evening as the arcade is barely 15 minutes walk from where i`m staying this weekend! :cool:
Oh man, I totally forgot about that. Guile without medium attacks is like a girl without boobs: no fun to play with. Hopefully they get most of their important attacks back through command moves (df + LK = SF d + MK)Quote:
Originally posted by Sidez

Ryu doesn`t have a roundhouse sweep that knocks down :(
Anyway, tiers from the location test from what we saw:
God - Iori
Top - Kyo, Kim, Sagat (REALLY slow but extremely strong and tiger uppercut has awesome range), Shiki
Shit - Genjuro (way too slow), Vega, Dhalsim (again, way too slow, probably because of his OTT animation)
For now I think that Capcom guys are very inadequete. In terms of speed and priority and simply losing a third of their normals... it`s just a bit much. I play M Bison (boxer) in SSF2X but in the location test he just didn`t have the range, speed and awesome normals. Most people just used the SNK fighters mainly because the only people who are really interested in this game are KOF players.
Hopefully things will change for the final release, theres some serious balance issues.
hopefully they do what they did on SvC NGpocket and select the best attack to go with,Ryu had his short while Guile had his Medium.Anyhoo,can anyone get me a list or a site that has all the characters listed.i would like to count just how many characters i would have loved to see make the cut that didn't.
