Capcom gonna Capcom. Iron Galaxy's specialty is feeding CPS/2/3 games into their emulation/GGPO machine and spitting these out (Magic Sword/Final Fight, MSHvSF/MvC, SF3OE, and now this). AFAIK VS2 and VH2 never came out in English, so they'd run into issues with the platform holders over releasing untranslated content. The original DS/Vampire isn't on there because Hunter makes it completely obsolete.

And speaking of the PS2 compilation, I still preferred playing the Saturn game to it because it suffered from a bad case of the 480i uglies.

That's what an upconverter is for! Although if all you're going to play is VS, then it doesn't much matter.

These are both off my SD CRT over component (in Saturn's case it's RGB SCART transcoded to YUV). The PS2 game is just so blurry and ugly in comparison. I wish they took better care with the port and had a true 240p/low res mode.

This one is definitely obnoxious. I've gotten everything but the final standing jab a couple of times. You can do it how you were trying, you just need to be faster. Try overlapping your first back input with the standing fwd.

There may be a shortcut like pressing back, st. fwd, back, then finishing normally.

Finally played my first few ranked matches. Getting destroyed all up in this piece.

I've been anticipating this release since the game was announced so I bought this yesterday and been playing mostly 3.

Now why do I continue to buy fighters that are eternal time sinks I don't know but I'm a fan of the franchise and want to see a new version released by Capcom so I did my part. I probably won't be doing a great deal of online play until I re-familiarize myself with the game's mechanics but I may do a few quick matches depending on who wants to play.

So far I think it's great that the PS3 and 360 have such a great library of fighters to choose from and just play online.
