Capcom Fighting Jam

Shin-Akuma, to be precise. Haven't seen the regular guy.

"The arcades are practically non-existent in America so it would be good to see this gold mine of history be collected in more compilations. Still, if there's one place to see varying styles of play in one place, then you can't do much worse than Capcom Fighting Evolution to see just how the genre has grown."


IGN really needs an editor. :wtf:

If all of a sudden, you're playing as Chun-Li and she has like 20 frames and this super smooth punch, it wouldn't feel like the Chun-Li you're used to playing.

:lol: I can just see him getting all shifty-eyed as he said that. "We want to change the graphics! It's the players that are holding us back...yes...heh..."

...because the players of Virtua Fighter riot every time the frame data has been changed. Talk about lame excuses, especially when they did change some of the characters in the game to fit. Alex is either faster or slower, I can't remember which.

They'd of course have to change a lot about each character for game balancing. There's zero credibility to that excuse.

Sorry, but

'Oh, you're just throwing in five old games and you're off.' It's really nothing simple at all. As a matter of fact, it's probably more complicated to do this than to create a game from scratch."

If it's so simple then fucking shut up and do it.

Its not the balancing of the character they are refering to, it is how smooth the animation is creating a feel of the fighting games of the time period it is supposed to represent. Seriously, ST ryu would not feel the same if his sweep didn't look stupid as shit, his crouching forward didn't magically appear on the screen longer than his whole body.

Nightstalker? Retards.

ST Ryu has his CvS2 sprite. ST Bison has his CvS2 sprite. ST Guile has his Alpha sprite, as does ST Zangief.

So his animations in ST2 and ST3 are identical then? Face it, it's a lame excuse and a line they've already crossed in this very game, not to mention a number of times in the past.
