Honestly, unless you absolutely must have a physical copy of the movie, I would just get the normal one and get online before the shoto-scrubs start to really flood the servers and make the online unplayable. I played all of 8 matches before getting tired of killing shoto after shoto after shoto last night...

It's the Holy Grail of self-loathing DualShock gamers. Ditch Sony's controller for Microsoft's with the XCM's latest, fully functional Cross Battle Adapter.

The adapter plugs into your PS3's USB port where it accepts wired Xbox 360 controllers. Beyond mere "it works!" functionality along with new rumble support, you can also toggle turbo on any button—which is why the unit has like a thousand switches.

The XCM Cross Battle Adapter is available at a few online retailers where it appears to be selling for about $55. So the question is, just how much do you hate yourself, fanboy?

lol that's what I was saying at first but they said they want to hook up arcade sticks to it. Those turbo switches hax on that adapter is pretty tempting as well, my old *** fingers can't tap those buttons like they used to...

I played with Charles and Morris yesterday. I think I went 7 & 12 against them.

I was still experimenting with the newer characters.


The game is good, frames are very important along with timing your focus counters. The EX super cancels are awesome, the game is a good blend between sf3 and sfEX. HD remix got me back in the groove and made jumping into sf4 easier. There is a ranking system online based on your battle points. I got up to 4000 something then got pummeled when I messed with my search engine settings (was always looking for higher ranked players).

I spent an hour trying to beat the game on hard with Chun Li, I was about to throw my PS3 out the window because she sucks. She has very like offense. She no longer has a good air counter so a good player will have to rely on the focus attack counters.

Fei Long, Sagat, C.Viper, are good on offensive. Abel, Zangief are great on defense. I still haven't found a character who has the right balance yet.

I'm playing Tatsunoku vs Capcom, that game is the shiznet!


Way better than MVC2 imo because of the diversity.
