Brad, I know you'll do great -- I wish I could hear you play! Enjoy the last show...and get me a copy asap

Moar lik "What is it you want now, you despicable snobs?"

How is your ability to read when you should (and shouldn't) focus absorb stuff? It works really well as a counter to some things, especially on Fei as he has one of the fastest, farthest reaching FAs in the game. Other than that, there's no getting around the fact that Fei makes himself vulnerable constantly in SF4, compared to his relatively safe pressure in HDR. EDIT: Just put in a little Chun practice on SF4 -- Arek, there is a sweet 1-frame link worth learning on her. I got j. fp x2, s. fp --> medium fireball --> b. mk x3 EX SBK to all link in one combo for just short of 400 damage on a crouching opponent in the corner. Continuing the combo post-fireball is the 1 frame, and it's the hardest read for me yet as I usually don't have to react _right_ after I throw an MP fireball (the kind I throw the most often, as the jab version sticks her arm too far out). Credit to darklightjg1 on shoryuken for the combo. From the looks of things, if you're perfect you may be able to combo d. fp --> medium whirlwind kick --> super after the fireball also, but I don't have the time to try it myself. Also on Chun, her best meterless combo (that I've found) after focus attack remains backdash, jump forward, d.mk x3. I'd love to be able to make something else work without meter but I haven't found anything.

Voted -- nice work on the trailer, I hope you win!

This. I'd like to see controllable large chars make a return, as I love playing as the giants in TvC.

It's from one of the disappointing episodes of Season 3, where Sylar walks into a bar with someone -- it's the bar's music for like 30 seconds.

Considering that Morrigan is a succubus, I'm pretty sure he did mean Stark armorless. :p And yes, it is obvious who wins that fight.

Starting about three days ago, whatever I speak / play into my microphone is coming out of the speakers. This makes online gaming very annoying, and when I run the fan in my living room, I end up with lots of feedback. Does anyone know how to fix this?

This should help you -- good luck switching to the stick!

Great work again! Always glad to see your videos.

I hope you're enjoying your dinner out -- happy birthday!

I disagree completely, the Madcatz SE and TE sticks are amazing. I have an SE stick that I've swapped out the TE parts into, and it's the best joystick I've ever owned. Plenty durable also. If you're not playing with a joystick, it's likely because you haven't surpassed the limitations of the pad yet. It's that much difference.

Once you can say so, you'll have to let us know how you got access then. You're about the same skill level as the rest of the frequent OCR players last we played. Sweet for you that you got to see it early though.

Need us to bring anything to the bbq? And by us, I really mean Addie, as my cooking kind of sucks. Looking forward to seeing people in person next week!

Happy birthday!

I hate people from CA. Just throwing it out there. Seriously though Arek, how was Hakan playwise? Did you get any time with him?

Happy birthday, Garian! I hope you had a good time!

I'm the one that probably introduced you to that, Prophet. It's also now an iPhone game -- I'm hoping to grab it sometime this week and do a mini-review.

Any acoustic duet between two single instruments. An interesting track along these lines is Mazedude's "Read the Sine" from the FF4 album, where he (afaik) utilizes only sine wave generators to make a cohesive track. It's really well thought out and designed, and the end product sounds great also.

TWEWY was anything but turnbased though -- it required focus on the level of some fighting games to play well at points. Great interface, but not for someone who likes relax while playing their JRPGs.

Bleck, you're a winner. Just thought you should know.

Answering that question is what grad school is all about

Also what version of Windows 7 are you running? Both my wife and I run 64-bit Win7 Ultimate, and are yet to experience a crash like this (we both also run Chrome as our browser). Sounds to me like you have virus cleaning to do...

Correct, which is why he said there wouldn't be prizes this year. Also BGC, I hope your eyesight is better soon! (too much time at the computer today?)

Money will be coming much like it did last year -- promises now, cash towards the end of the month. I'm still waiting to hear about my grad school financial package. If I win, OCR will as well
