Pokken looks........strange to say the least. Coming from a tekken background I expected it to be more of a traditional fighting game rather than this arena fighter thing they got goin on now. But hey, if it ever comes to Wii U I'll try it.

How the hell do you start learning IC's. The guides aren't super useful at explaining really some stuff to do after you get a grab, or how to use desynchs, and other things like that. IC's seem really dense and unique and so far I'd really like some tips at least or a nod in a direction where I could look.

learning ICs isn't like learning any other character cuz you have to have a different perspective on even simple stuff like trades.
that said, I suggest you learn some simple desyncs and get into the lab, cuz that's really the only way to figure out how the combo game works. neutral is really wonky too. melee ICs have a whole bunch of guides, so just look up anything done by wobbles/fly/chu/nintendude. PM ICs are like Melee ICs cousin, they have a lot of quirks that I don't really know that well, but head over to the ICs subforum to figure that out. ICs take a lot of dedication to excel w/, but most of the simpler stuff is pretty easy to pick up if you just want to fool around w/ the char.

I think the team went the Ultimate Ninja route so kids can easily pick the game up. It looks fun af though.

the upgradeable pokemon assists are super-weird, though. like, you have to actively commit to playing it on a card/ID/whatever for a long period of time before you have access to every option available

Well, you have seen what a Pokémon battle looks like right? Despite the turn-based nature of the game battle system, it is pretty much an arena fight in a circle which this game is accurately portraying for the first time ever.

And the game does become a traditional fighter when you get close enough to your opponent. So it isn't really a Naruto clone (hah get it?) as much as it is a hybrid of all the trends in fighting games today.

Ok, so basically anything will work? It all runs on the processor anyway?

Graphics card and GPU are interchangeable terms, right?

Family decided to have a surprise reunion and didn't tell me until this morning. They even bought a ticket for me. Which, of course, raises some questions: Why they waited until the day before to tell me, and what would they have done if I said no?
Anyway, I'm sitting in the airport now, heading to California, yay. My dad's an only child and orphan(as of two years ago), so he's kinda been integrated into my mom's ludicrously large family. My favorite cousin's not even going to be there, she's too busy vacationing with her boyfriend in Okinawa, the lucky *****.
As of right now, looks to be roughly 12 of my cousins in attendance, various aunts and uncles, and even a couple second cousins in the mix. My lovable and ever so troublesome grandma is gonna be there too.

Help me PMS, you're my only hope.

Wooow, CS major ignoring my question.

Have fun, abuse the generosity of old people and even if they aren't nice be good to them so you don't get written out of their will.

I'm not sure how any of us could help you out, unless of course you want the lot of us weebs/geeks/adorkables as cousins for a day. XD

Just being a CS major doesn't mean I know everything there is to know about computers, let alone an emulator I don't use.
And people do use GPU and graphics card interchangeably, yes. But that's really a hardware issue and not my department.

Emergency kidnapping? I don't know, you all seem like a resourceful and...imaginative bunch. Tap into your waifu powers or something. You have those, right? I've got like 30 minutes before my plane leaves.

You have just contracted a exotic disease and are no longer fit for air travel. Even if you are able to arrive at the gathering late, you should not go lest you want any children under 10 you come into contact with to become infertile.

Well one of the surefire ways to get out of work (for Mexicans anyways) is to say that your grandmother is in the hospital. Since your grandma is there, you'll have to improvise.

Say that you can't go because Roman Reigns looked so strong last Monday that you've decided to follow your own path of strongness by becoming a Buddhist Monk which requires you to abandon all connections and ties.

are you saying you want someone from pms to kidnap you and make you a waifu? that sounds like a less than ideal plan...

hey, @ Grey Belnades Grey Belnades and anyone else who does a lot of fitness stuff:
is it better to cardio, then weight lifting stuff, or reverse?

or does it not matter?

or does it depend on what you want?

A buddhist with an exotic illness.

Edit: Who also was so financially crippled by student loans that you became a mail order waifu and contact with reality is being unfaithful to your husbando and the sanctity of anime.

Problem: This involves contracting an exotic disease. A: there aren't any around where I live, and B: That miiiiight incapacitate me. I still want to do stuff, just not go to a reunion with relatives I generally can't stand to be around for more than a day.

This sounds unlikely to convince my mother. She's far too aware of my materialistic habits to readily believe me going into a buddhist monastery.

Oh god, no. That's not what I want at all. I'd rather go to the reunion.

Not turning my life into an anime. I refuse. Anime is dumb, yo.

They've started boarding. Maybe I can ask to exchange my ticket to one that goes to Okinawa, and join one of the few relatives I actually like. I'm sure her boyfriend won't mind me interrupting the romantic getaway he's undoubtedly been planning for a long time, right?

Remember to bring a few bottles of water to avoid dehydration, because you've began a journey to my homerealm...Australia U.S.A.

Say that your best friend from Greece is in a deep depression due to the economy and requires comforting from a person who's strong and stands tall.

What is your current fitness goal?

On the plane. Too late to do anything now. I'm locked in, heading towards a fate that I dread. A weekend of...FAMILY.
It's been a pleasure.
