Heh, I was thinking the same thing last night. I'll still get it, mostly because my gaming circle can't wait to play it, but its single-player will be unplayed until I've had my fill of Evo.Quote:

Its one of the only games out there where i can lose badly and STILL enjoy playing it. I would only get frustrated with the way i am playing, not the game itself....
That would be the same for me. My buddie who I play fighting games with loves SC so he may end up buying it for me to play at my house. Not like I would reaally mind that or any thing ;)Quote:

It is the most user friendly tutorial in existence, and ALL fighting games (3D or otherwise) should implement it.
The only complaint I have about this is that there simply isn't enough time in the day to devote to mastering different characters. I doubt I'll even come close to mastering one, much less getting really good with several. At a certain point, you have to make a decision to split your time between two or more characters, knowing that it will make your favorite character suffer.
Ah well, if only all games had such "drawbacks".

Yeah its really fucking lame to just take it out of the game but no biggie, I'd just call the brownish suit her "Desert Storm" costume ;)Quote:

Music-wise I don't mind the more rock'ish stuff and the gameplay is still as solid as ever. I haven't had the chance to play VF4 super extensively to notice all the changes but I'm going to have more playtime with Evo and the two new characters in there so its all good.
...none of my gaming posse is all that interested in playing VF4E.. :( They spent more time with Naruto (GCN) than they did with Evo... :(
I have officially deemed the Quest mode to be even better than OG Kumite mode. Amazingly fun.
Yeah I feel ya, I only have one friend who really gets into fighters as much as I do if not more but I barely see him. I'll try to slowly engrain it into another friend of mine but he seems to tire of fighters after a while.Quote:

After that my fighting abilities atrophied completely, but I do kind of miss the genre.
So it looks like there's a game out there that actually wants to teach me how to play, rather than throw me off the deep end and hope I have fun drowning a few dozen times before getting even a slight grasp of how a character is meant to be used.
Should be fun. :)
