Preordered it at Toys R Us this morning, but GBAtemp was down.

Super Street Fighter IV does not suck.

It'll still easily be the worst iteration of it. I don't care if it's in 3D, the console versions have better graphics, better online, and better local play. And for a fighting game, the better online and better local play really help.

I knew you was going to say something.

What better graphics? psp3/xbox 360. Wii graphic isn't good enough for you?

Not all people have online and you do not know how good online and local play going to be anyway.

I like to see you carry your dear console around.

It does, there's significant difference between SSFIV and SFIV.

That was a nice bullshit graphics statement there. Better graphics make a game look better, might as well have it.

If you live under a fucking rock then you don't have online. Seriously, who buys a video game console nowadays and DOESN'T have an internet connection? Local play is inferior because it requires two systems and it's just not as fun as watching it on a big screen.

Maybe I'm nitpicking but there's quite a few people who love to use fightsticks too. But on the topic of controls, it's just better to use a full-on analog stick I find, not the slide pad or whatever it is.

I don't really see the advantage of portability when you're playing a game based a lot around multiplayer. Doing single player stuff can only be fun for so long. The 3DS will be popular but it's not like you'll walk down a street a meet a bagillion people to play SSFIV with.

The only reason that SSFIV became its own game was because it was too large for DLC size.

Isn't the online... pretty much the same?

Because a lot of shit is different.

I'm still saying it's the worst version of SUPER Street Fighter IV. Doesn't matter how many shitty versions of SFIV there have been.
 
Well... You ARE correct... But you have to take into account that this is the first version on a handheld. Of course it wouldn't look as good.

No need to hate too much. :)

Worst iteration? What about the iPhone version?

Horrible controls, bad graphics, and I don't think it even has online.
[/quote]

iPhone version is pretty good. Don't know what you're talking about. The graphics are certainly better than the 3DS's.

Played the iPhone version, and looked at screens from the 3DS version (And I don't mean blurry magazine screens). Seriously, did you have to ask?

If your screen was blurry, that's your fault, the game is actually quite sharp looking on the newest iPhones.

Okay, I saw a video of SF4 on a new iPhone, and it's not so blurry. But it still looks horribly cel-shaded and not smooth at all.

Look up videos of SSF4 on the 3DS. Way smoother and a lot more crisp.

You used it? Even if you did, you probably deny how good the slide pad is.

If this was release on NGP first with better graphics, you probably be singing another tune now wouldn't yea?

With your flaw logic we shouldn't even have portables.

I thought they show pics to conversant for the close up attacks.
 
Just so people know, iOS SFIV uses sprites. They used the same basic idea behind Ghost Trick, in that they rendered each thing beforehand and made 2D sprites out of them, the 3DS's SSFIV on the other hand uses polygons for pretty much everything.
Which is better is up to you to decide.
It's amazing how the blog got derailed from "I preordered a 3DS" to "Which version of (S)SFIV is better". :lol:

I don't get it. You're comparing a still shot to actual moving gameplay? Of course the still shot would be worse.

Exactly. You can't judge a game from pics.

BTW, I love your sig and how it says -22 hours until release. :P
 
Graphics alone doesn't make a good game. : I never said they did. You're trying to paint me as something I'm clearly not and you're doing an awful job at it.

People who do have wifi have wifi on portables.: Everyone knows that wired is better than wireless.

You used it? Even if you did, you probably deny how good the slide pad is. : It won't be better than an analog stick or a fightstick.

Wifi : That was a completely inadequate reply to a whole slew of pros I said the console versions of SSFIV has over the 3DS version. I can even play SSFIV on a WiFi connection on my consoles too.

If this was release on NGP first with better graphics, you probably be singing another tune now wouldn't yea?: No, I would not. I doubt anyone would say the PSP version of BlazBlue is superior to the console versions.

With your flaw logic we shouldn't even have portables.: With your wild assumptions and inaccurate attacks, you shouldn't even be discussing it. You're too busy thinking the 3DS is bulletproof to realize that it has a lot of flaws and that not every game for it is good. The launch line-up was mediocre and any of the "good games" (or just what seems like a bunch of remakes and ports) aren't coming out for a few months.

As for SFIV on the iPhone, the controls sucked but I never thought the graphics looked bad. Not better than the 3DS graphics but they weren't horrible. And yes, I played it.
 
According to videos, iPhone version looks gay and as most iPhone games prolly controls that way as well. Dunno I'm not big on Apple apps at all. 3DS version will use real buttons and looks tons better. I know it'll be boss cause the console versions are and this will be true to the Super edition on the systems.

Pretty much any version of SFIV or SSFIV is better than the iPhone version. iPhone ports are usually the worst because of the controls. Take GTA: Chinatown Wars. It's a really good game and has graphics closer to the PSP version than the DS version and it also has the touchscreen minigames of the DS version. But I'd say it's the worst version because the regular controls suck compared to the D-Pad on the DS or the Analog Nub on the PSP.

I'm just saying that there's not much appeal to get the 3DS version of SSFIV if you can get it on the Xbox 360/PS3. Portability isn't a real draw to this game and the 3D isn't a real selling point.

Also, "gay" is a dumb term, don't use it unless you're describing, you know, somebody that's actually gay. Just my little PSA of the Day.

You basely said here why get the 3DS if the console look better.

Wifi : That was a completely inadequate reply to a whole slew of pros I said the console versions of SSFIV has over the 3DS version. I can even play SSFIV on a WiFi connection on my consoles too. I'm saying you can have that same experience or a least close to it too.

I'm saying SS4 is a good game for it.

You keep assuming everyone play every single game. And not all are remakes and ports
