And for what it's worth -- if you're truly looking to study up and improve your skills, playing online isn't the ideal place to achieve that unless arcades are non-existant in your area.
Anyone who thinks arcades are reveleant in this day and age are deluding themselves. It would be nice if companies actually tried to bring the genre up to speed with today's games, though. Fat chance.

It's sad that I could never get anyone to play me in Third Strike a couple of years back but I could get competition on Tekken 4 by just walking up to the machine at any given time. The last 2D fighter that had even a small following in these parts was MvC2. Online has been my only option for a while now.Quote:

So you've owned the game all this time and haven't said anything? We should play tomorrow or something.Quote:

Aside from playing those on my friends list like -- I only log on prior to a match being planned in advance. Things will definitely pick up more once the U.S. edition is finally available.Quote:
