Street Fighter IV

[Lionx]

My opinion: Third Strike is hot garbage. Very little to no one cared about it until the Daigo video anyway.

This guy really shows what i feel about it:

Parry is incredibly strong, and i can already see it on certain people who play P Groove(though imo its alot better in CvS2 due to strict timing, in 3S it really is easier to parry by accident and i get punished), my Rolento loses it's edge and is forced to run away alot more. You can say thats just a different way of playing and maybe so in CvS2, but when everyone can do it, and Fireballs suck ass i dont see why anyone would like playing Turd Strike. Its why Remy is a garbage character, he cant even zone like Guile not even close with parries.

Everyone eventually plays about the same with the same mixups..hence UOH(Universal Overheads). And everyone is either Yun or Chun. Dumbs down every strategy to tapping forward or down, and everything you do can be a 50/50...

Though i know many people that LOVE the game, so its an either you hate it or love it. I freaking hate it think its one of the lesser worse games in SF. Imo SFIV is very ambitious, i was afraid Focus Attacks would be too parry-like, but the way its built made it much more interesting and the 3-D models were a big step for many as well.

EDIT: Fixed and added some stuff.
