I think the Social Thread and the Q&A Thread should be seperate, as for the grab release question utilt/dtilt works too.

I have never had Utilt work against Lucas, against ness yes, but lucas no. Lucas always gets released too far away.

 

[TommyDerMeister]

I've seen utilt work. I don't think Lucas (and maybe Ness) always get released the same distance away from Snake though. I've seen Lucas end up close enough to Snake so that they were touching, and I've also seen Lucas be far enough away to not get utilted.

That was something I noticed when testing grab releases. I could never explain it properly though. Everytime I tried it against the CPU, lucas and ness would always go at various lengths. Whenever I tried against a human though, they would always end up at a distance. The only thing I know for sure is that ness releases closer to lucas, and even at the fartherst distance, Utilt always works. So against Lucas I would just Ftilt, but I forgot about Dtilt, so I will have to remember that.

Anyone know why characters ground release at different lengths? I looked at various things, but again, I didn't find a pattern.

Lucas just needs to hold Up to avoid the utilt.

 

[Black Mantis]

grab lucas. do not pummel for an air release and have no follow ups.
grab lucas. pummel until he is released then ftilt after he is released.

thanks
I deal with alot of lucas players in my state.
(needless to say its annoying)

I guess you could add what I tested on Ganon for your crouch list. However, I would chance up some stuff since I said that so long ago it needs to be revised a bit.

Crouch will evade this of Ganon's:
Warlock Punch, Grounded DownB, Ftilt, Jab, Dsmash, grab, dash grab for sure. The aerials have to be revised as I was told that it is possible with Uair, and if that is true I may ahve messed up with fair and bair as well.

I have to say I have not looked at that for awhile, and that is the most extensive and complete guide I have ever seen.

 

[Berserker.]

Thanks for the crouching Xeylode and the compliment.

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

I live to crouch.

IIRC, if ness or lucas breaks a grab less than 7 frames from a pummel, then they release far away so that they can avoid ftilt and utilt (maybe dtilt can hit?). And Utilt has more range that Ftilt1 so it wouldnt make sense to say that Ftilt will hit but Utilt wouldn't

Lucas just needs to hold Up to avoid the utilt.

Thats wrong.

 

[etecoon]

got donkey kong country today

it is the ****

 

[napZzz]

How good is it?

 

[etecoon]

very good so far, only real complaint is the completely unecessary use of motion controls. nintendo's penchant for shoving this gimmick down our throats is seriously annoying

 

[napZzz]

lets hope the next nintendo system doesn't include any stupid **** like the wii did

at least thats what I hope for

 

[etecoon]

I'd hope but I have to doubt it, the DS and wii have outsold their predecessors, and their competition by far too much. and at this point I don't think it really matters to me personally, nintendo's whole direction over the past 4-5 years is just...they've completely lost me. even without motion control problems, if a new zelda or metroid game is announced, I can't even say that I'm that hyped about it because the games aren't that good anymore, mario is always hit or miss, and they decided that starfox and f-zero don't need to exist now

 

[SuSa]

I miss the old Nintendo.

Talking Duck Hunt and ****.

Oh, and SNES was the best system ever. Secret of Evermore, LoZ: ALttP, Mario Paint, Killer Instinct, Paperboy, *insert nearly any game here*

Nowadays it's "What can we dish out in under a year that will sell like hotcakes when it's a piece of garbage but it has the name of it's totally awesome predecessors and so everyone will buy it anyways?"

I mean....

Link.
On a train?

=| I have given up hopes in you Nintendo.



Also now that I think about it. 98% of all games suck. Dreamcast had some pretty chill games until it was run into the ground. PS2 had some a'ight games and the only racing game I ever enjoyed (Tokyo Extreme Racer Zero), and well......

****. Why do all games suck nowadays. Have I finally outgrown my childhood gamer phase? If so I want back!

I feel distressed and can't sleep at night because of this. (ﾉ ﾟДﾟ)ﾉ

 

[napZzz]

the snes produced my favorite game

FF III, but the remake on GBA is better

not really a remake, but w/e

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

I read about some rule where typically 90% of games never cover their production costs. It's the other 10% that does not fail which ends up making all the money.

I agree there is something about retro gaming that is pretty awesome compared to today's games. However, I find there are still many horrible games out there for even the older games. Duck Hunt... Not my thing. It's like Tetris. There is not enough variation in the game for me to like it. I guess the furtherest I am really willing to go back to games is the SNES. Anything not on par or better than it I am not really interested.

 

[Technodeath]

Killer Instinct

HIGH FIVE!
( I loved this game as a child C: )

I'm also playing through FF7, on an emulator, which isnt as good or nostalgic
but I'm using a controller, which brings it's fun up a bit.

 

[napZzz]

FF7 is kind of overhyped alot, but I still think its an amazing rpg that set standards for the future

 

[Technodeath]

It's all up to a matter of opinion on how hyped it is/got

Either way, like you said, it is an amazing rpg.

 

[TommyDerMeister]

f**k FF7, it's all about The Legend of Dragoon.

 

[Limeee]

i'm curious, does anything special happen when we platform cancel with c4?
i'm pretty sure you can platform cancel with b moves...

 

[Underload]

GBA's always been my favorite system. Weird, huh? FFT:A, Pokemon, Warioware Twisted, the series of Mario rereleases, Superstar Saga, the various ports they had from the NES, maaaaaan. And Metroid Fusion (<3333333)

If we're keeping it to home consoles, I'd honestly say the Gamecube. I grew up with the N64, but the second I got a Gamecube I was amazed by the variety and playability of the games.

Honestly, the 3DS might take the title from the GBA.

edit: No, platform cancelling with C4 really blows. Nothing special.

 

[Limeee]

awwwww
maybe on different platforms it does something?
i'm too lazy to set up my wii

 

[Technodeath]

f**k FF7, it's all about The Legend of Dragoon.

Funny that.. I recently completed this game too.

Golden Sun 1 and 2.

Snes: Megaman X, DK country, Battletoads, Double Dragon, Contra( I still play contra, since I have it on my wii)

NES: Megaman, Mario, balloon fighter, duck hunt and some more. I love you Nes.

N64: Jet for Gemini, Starfox64, Donkey Kong 64 ( as you can't see I am not a fan of Zelda series)

Golden Sun DS: you need to come out. Now.

check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YU1TeT04b9A&feature=recentu#

Nagahari(diddy) doing some nasty stuff like 0- to death in a actual tournament match with only one banana! wtf.


Edit: I can't see the hype about FF7, the only great thing that it has is Sephiroth, even though I love Final fantasy crisis core.

My Fav FF: the mother****ing III. I hate: FFIV I ****ing hate you mother****er.

The only FF game I played was FFX.
Also did the snake boards ever have an interview thread?

 

[etecoon]

FFVII is probably my favorite FF but it's just as much because most of the other games in the series are horribly flawed as anything, VI and tactics are its only legitimate competition

 

[TommyDerMeister]

One of my favourite games of all time C:

oh, awesome. this is one of the few rpgs i really enjoyed playing. I'm almost done with my 2nd run through the game. I'm still waiting for the day a sequel will be announced, but I don't think it will happen.

Golden Sun 1 and 2.

Golden Sun DS: you need to come out. Now.

ALL OF THIS.

 

[Technodeath]

I dont think it will either.

But I liked the fact it had interactivity with the combos in the battles.
i.e. pressing X and O when the boxes appeared.

 

[TommyDerMeister]

Yeah the additions system was cool. I also liked that they varied in difficulty too, and some of those additions looked pretty sick too.

I would like to see an interview thread here, but not just interviewing the snakes that places good that don't get here that often, it would be good if the interviewed ones were the regulars to the boards. Just to get to know then a bit more.

 

[napZzz]

golden sun 3 hyyppeeee

 

[Technodeath]

Yeah, getting regulars interviewed would be pretty sick :D

I need to get some vids recorded and put up in the critique thread. so people can tell me how bad I am at this game.

 

[napZzz]

my interview would rap3
