Zangief makes me laugh...just his attacks, the stuff he says, it's just so wacky.

I can't understand why he got so many nerfs though, when he clearly had trouble against all the other top tiers.

Ew, 360 sucks. Get a PS3 for that. At least that's what my friend has, and I mooch off him.

My friend's Ken is mad legit though, and he plans on going to EVO.

I play Balrog, Ryu, Chun-Li, Ibuki and Juri and (lol) Vega.

Mains: Ibuki (from SSFIV) and Balrog (from SFIV)
Secondaries: Ryu (every game ever forever) and Juri
Tertiary: Chun-Li, Vega

Hilariously enough, my Secondaries are better than my current main, in terms of my performances with them. I've crushed people with my Balrog before, though I'm a rather average player on the whole. I can play just about anyone.

I've always prefer PS3 over a 360.. I actually currently own a PS3.. I'm only getting a 360 to be able to play with my friends x.x


Also, SF4 loading time on 360 is a whole lot faster on PS3.

How is that possible? The Dpad is God awful...

That, and PS3's design is so beautifully simple...much more durable...doesn't need batteries...lighter...

I personally only like the 360 controller for FPS only.

Heh, the 360's dpad is horrible, but I prefer it over the PS3 controller cuz the analog is placed in a more convenient place.

I can't play FPS on consoles, unless I have autoaim but then its just boring.

The PS3 controller >>> 360 controller for SF4.

Buttons are quite a bit more comfortably placed imo.

The PS3's controller design is awkward.

The d-pad is great, but it feels like the analog sticks were just slapped onto the bottom as an afterthought. And in fact, that's exactly what happened. Sony slapped two analog sticks to the bottom of the original PS1 controller in order to better compete with the N64, and each PlayStation successor has inherited the same controller design.

Is the PS3 a better package overall than the 360? Absolutely. Is its controller terrible? By no means. Is it a ******* child of 4th and 5th gen console controllers? Yes, yes it is.

Give the 360 the d-pad from Classic Controller Pro, and you have the ideal controller my frends.

How is it awkward? It's like...the most simplistic, symmetrical design ever, lol. I dunno, to each his own I guess...I've always loved PS controllers because I feel they SHOULD be simple...I just hate the squishy L2 and R2 buttons.

Besides that, I have no issue with it. 360's Dpad makes me wanna punch a baby tho...

It'd be pretty similar to a GC controller, lol. Aside from the wonky bumper buttons on GC controller anyways.

@ Hippy: Get Ratchet and Clank - a crack in time.

Get BlazBlue continuum shift when it comes out....

Ignore Tekken 6 unless you're really into it...the online for it is terrible.

And pick up SSF4 so we can play, lol

My favorite controller is the PS3, I've liked that style since PS1.. HOWEVER, the 360 controller is a whole lot better for FPS(although I prefer keyboard+mouse)... and I like the convex style of the 360 joystick, it's like your thumb is having sex with a fat person, and it sinks in ^^ I prefer d-pad in all my games, except FPS and Smash xD


PS3 hardware is a whole lot better than the 360, this is just a fact. Don't try to argue this -.-

And I plan to buy an arcade stick for SSF4 :D

I need to buy an arcade stick. You have to be a certain kinda devoted to buy one of those though... it's like...

I already have a controller that I **** with...but I'm gonna buy a new $100+ controller for a game that I play semi-casually AND will take me a few days to get used to...

I may do it eventually...but meh. Not until I start screwing up inputs.

...Who is Mositri? Honestly, I can see where all your ambition is coming from, but playing over WiFi and challenging other Marios is not the way to do it. Trust me, my goal was and always has been the same as I see yours, the best way to pursue that goal is to attend tournaments that AREN'T WiFi, the ones that actually matter.

As it is, I've nearly completed my first goal... after a year and a half.

Also, getting better takes time... LOTS OF TIME. More time than you would believe and then some... at least for me it was like that. I'd really like to get some replays up of me a year ago and have you all make fun of me!
