Well I got up about 30 minutes early so I could download it and try it out.

I must say that with these extra 5 months of a wait due to them fixing the lag in the online play, I must say I am HUGELY disappointed. The game lags to all hell online and there is a delay with the button push to the reaction on screen. And as we all know, timing is everything in SF2. So this hugely screws up the matches.

You can tell when your opponent or yourself screws up just because of the lag. I will hit guys with fireballs dead on because when they tried to block it just didn't block in time.

Disappointed I tell ya, disappointed. I only played 3 online opponents but I am going to give it a huge go tonight. Hopefully others get some better online games than I did.

I got the game this morning. I didn't try out the online portion because...well, I haven't played SFII in like 10 years and that was in the arcade. I love the 360 controller but it is clunky with SFII.

I don't know if it is me, the game, or the controller right now but I suck.

QFT on all accounts. I also downloaded the game this morning, but didn't hop online yet. I'm already come to terms that I'll get beat down....a lot.....but I don't mind. If I'm playing with someone with a good attitude, it doesn't bother me. There was a game released on the original XBOX or PS2 that was a fighter that was the first to go online, and within a couple of days, I had something like a 4-40 record . Good fun, and I'll give somebody a lot of wins [because I suck] if they aren't cocky about beating me.

I also suck so far. I haven't tried online but what the hell is with the SLOW DOWN during 1 player? Did anyone else notice this? Fvck, after 5+ months of waiting extra for this, it's a huge let down to me. I am not looking forward to the online lag purbeast was talking about...yikes.

I played about 10 more matches during lunch (I'm finally starting to win with Chun-Li now that I can remember moves). I have yet to see any slow down during off-line play.

 

[batmang]

i tried it this morning, and i cant get used to the 360 controller for sf2.. i need the snes controller. (wii) !

 

[purbeast0]

I am going to pwn because of THIS!!

(if there is no lag ha)

 

[UTmtnbiker]

Just got SF. Don't remember any of the moves and obviously none of the online guides correspond to the same buttons on a 360 controller.

I suggest we start posting moves as they are discoved.

If you go into the Help/How To Play in the pause menu, all the moves are listed after you hit A a couple of times to get past the first couple of screens.

 

[bucwylde23]

i am getting my butt kicked in SF2

maybe i will be better once i get some of the moves down.

Some of the guys I am going up against already have around 100+ wins... damn kids with no jobs

 

[NFS4]

Yeah, I'm getting my butt kicked in SF2 as well

I'm just waiting for Contra!!!!

ANyways I have a question that I just have no clue the answer to ...

Why is it that EVERY SINGLE xbox360 game has noticeable tearing in the graphics, yet I can't think of 1 single xbox1 game that had noticeable tearing? Is it just very lazy and crappy programming? It is really starting to just piss me off when I see it in every new game and every trailer I watch.

I have never noticed any tearing when playing games. What type of TV do you have? HDTV or SDTV?

 

[purbeast0]

so after giving SF2 a good go last night, I must say that I really had a great time. I didn't have too bad lag most of the time and I was whooping the crap out of some people. I must say too that the Dpad is pretty hard to play with, and my joystick is a hell of a lot easier to play with and makes the game a lot more fun.

i also have a question ... is there anyway to play a ranked match with the same person 2 times in a row? it always only gave me the exit option afterwards. is there anyway to get around that?

so you are telling me there is no tearing in your saints row demo, at the opening cut scene?

if you can't see tearing you just must not know what it is. i have the eye for it. there is even tearing on the dead rising trailer that was released like 2 days ago.

I haven't tried the Saint's Row demo but I did not notice any tearing in the Dead Rising trailer. I'll have to look again.

 

[adairusmc]

No tearing on any game, whatsoever, with my 360.

 

[Don Vito Corleone]

Hmmm. I definitely know what tearing looks like (I had a Riva 128-based video card many years ago that was notorious for this), but I've never noticed it on my 360. That doesn't necessarily mean it isn't there, though - I will curse you if I now can't ignore it and see it in every scene!

Gears of War Dated for November 12th. This game looks good, but I think I'll probably hold off on it for a month or two after it comes out because I'll still be playing Splinter Cell. GOW will be priced $59.99 for the regular version and $69.99 for Limited Edition.

Heh. Just in time for the PS3 launch.

i just got my 360 and was a bit skeptical about "next gen" gameplay. wow, the controller is awesome; playing in high def on my Sony Tube looks amazing, and Live Marketplace has me downloading demos left and right.

got my $20 1 year sub for Live from toys r us, just waiting for GRAW to arrive from Japan...(thx hot deals/cag)

 

[AdamSnow]

The saints row demo has some tearing for me, and crappy frame rate some of the time...

I've noticed tearing before on my machine, as well as the demo machines in the stores... and on friends machines... so... I really don't think it's a problem with specific machines...

I'm on a 42" HDTV as well, and I can see it sometimes...
