Apologyman and Angelic should have replaced Neo and PR Rog but as long as Marn is on the team I'm happy.
Or is Angelic just not going?

sick combos of Frank by Jwong and Deadpool by FruitPunch! Please tell me someone saw it
What team?
So where would AoF3 go (unless that was a side story and never even part of the canon).
KI's gameplay looks sloppy and doesn't appear to promote good fundamentals... it's very much like a 2D DoA (at least you don't get rewarded with damage for the correct breaker). Don't see it going very far unless MS makes a heavy commitment.

This came up a couple weeks back -- I think the it's kind of hard to believe, especially since they would need to be responsible for the PC release itself. Which means that they would both have to have the staff on hand to handle the port (which is possible, but it would be a much bigger task than anything else they've worked on). They would also need to convince French Bread and Ecole that they can be trusted with the source code, raw assets, and so on. That's probably the hardest part, especially as they have no working relationship with either company. I think it's going to be a heavy lift for them, but I would like to see it work out.

AoF3 happened but nothing happened that mattered. The only thing AoF3 does is introduce those characters into the universe. And in proxy Kasumi into the KoF canon for '96.
Congrats. Assuming your not serious, but I think you can say it's an accomplishment to say that you contributed to a healthy, respected community in the FGC.
I agree with this. I just hope Chris doesn't get that fatigue of running through the gauntlet.
Depending on the format that Yipes has set up, if it's an elimination format, then obviously Chris plays anchor.
I'm actually a bit surprised that you guys have fed him this long, and that he wasn't realized as one sooner. However, I don't know how GAF culture deals with trolls yet, as I've not seen it, being limited to mainly this thread.
Where's the archive for this (or just tell me which twitch channel it was, I can find it myself, thanks)?

Yea, haha. never would be able to talk/read about all this stuff/with all you people w/o neogaf. Also would've never been able to write my awesome post-collusiongate fan fic

Close enough.
There's barely any trolling at all, they tend to get banned pretty quickly. But if someone makes the effort to back up their opinions then it doesn't really matter if it's in the minority. Or if it's funny/entertaining. I think it works well tho and is why people read GAF.
Its a dev side thing on PS4, so if the devs want their games will support PS3 sticks.
Dunno if injustice will support 'em
Ahn....something weird happened.
Saturday I bought 4500 NicoNico points to watch Topanga League and my credit card was accepted (btw if you guys want to buy it for you, maybe I can do it and you pay me back via PayPal). Then I watched some archives and everything was ok. Yesterday I watched the whole day 1 of the A league without any problems, amazing stuff there btw.
Then today I went to my bank's website to check out some stuff, and there's no trace of the NicoNico payment there! Not in the credit card's bill, not in the debit archives, nothing! I don't know if it appears later but I've never seen this happen before

Basically, this will allow us to specifically out individual developers as being scumbags. There's no good reason for a dev to not allow PS3 sticks unless they are in some sort of shady cahoots with a stick manufacturer.
Yeah, that sounds right. Wonder where AoF3 and Buriki One goes (because Buriki is part of it, I think.)
EDIT:
Sounds right to me. So Future!Robert and Mr. Karate II are pretty much nonexistent/unimportant, yeah?

Or if their game engine encounters serious glitches supporting legacy USB devices...
Was happy to do it, I'm really excited to see what comes of it. Esteban has a ton of potential here and the talent to realize it. It was an easy decision for me.
As someone who knows Esteban personally, he is a super cool dude and y'all should back this. If you haven't seen his stuff before, take a look at his youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/holdbacktoblocktv
He's both a really good video editor and super passionate about the FGC so I'm looking forward to this. He can also kick my ass in Street Fighter so there's that :V
I'm sure Markman can vouch for him too, he's done a few videos with Zhi for Madcatz. I helped a little (by which I mean I held the mic) during a walk through video for Spring Fighter.
Even though I am not buying next-gen consoles, there is no way I would accept such an incredibly bad excuse from a developer.

Not sure how comfortable I feel if it's "up to the developer" whether my PS3 stick is supported. I imagine anyone that stands to make additional money off fighting stick merchandise will opt to not support the legacy sticks in favor of a licensed stick they can make additional revenue off of. Will have to wait until a big name fighter comes out on PS4 and see how it goes.

I'm just curious, is anyone here getting KI3? I'd like to know if anyone is getting the game and will be posting impressions of it in the FGW threads. I love KI ever since I played it as a kid but, I'm not buying a new console to play KI3.

Well, Mr. Karate II's made 3 appearances since then, and B1 Robert has technically shown up twice, so I wouldn't say they're completely unimportant. But as far as story goes, they're only there as a hint on how Kyokugenryu karate will end up.
Never heard of Wild Ambition replacing Fatal Fury 1 outright before (and I'm not sure how I feel about Meyer, Tung and Hwa Jai being soft-retconned out of the first game, or how early Kim, Yamazaki and Xiangfei would have shown up) but if that's the common idea now, then it is what it is.
I know the Maximum Impact series is its own thing, though; Falcoom mentioned that it was separate from KOF, and Ureshino said that it was separate from FF.
Well, fingers crossed. I certainly hope that they don't run into problems like that. I also hope they don't 'forget' to work in support for older USB sticks, at least in the beginning of the generation.
I can only hope that others put their foot down if devs try to cover their asses with "it's inconvenient".

Why is everything other than Amane so ugly :-(
Esteban is the real deal, he's been working on this project for a while now.
Pure straight up pasion... a shame that he kinda hates me now. lol
I'm getting it, but it'll probably be around christmas time. The OT for KI will be going up later this week tho.
Oh my GOD Wild Ambition was so fucking bad, that I never even considered the story. I have it somewhere in my house tho, guess I should replay it.
For what it's worth? If you need a refresher on the FF Storyline, Memories of Stray Wolves got translated recently. You get to here Terry speak in his natural japanese/english tongue, and it's pretty damn informative on the FF storyline.

He must still be upset about that bait-and-switch you pulled with KOF VS Garou, like the other FF fans - all 9 of 'em.

That's really not necessary, YouTube clips are more than enough!
Thanks for the link. I've only seen summaries of it before, so this should be interesting.

Who isn't?
I'll take it, if I manage to get my hands on an Xbox One around launch.
I may be a bit busy in the coming weeks, though, but I'll sure try to post my impressions of it if I can play it.
Not a big fan of the franchise, though, and as several others of my fellows here I'm not too fond of the combo breaker system; I do like what I saw of Selena though, and I'm quite curious to try her out a little bit...

A small correction. That timeline you quoted shouldn't include MI in it. That game's events happen in a different universe where Kain doesn't gain control over 2nd South Town but instead Alba & Soiree's adopted father Fate does sometime after RB1 which lead up to a similar time line but separate events.
So the timeline does this after RB1 > Garou > Savage Reign > Kizuna Encounter or RB1 > MI > MI2/Regulation A. But not both of these. There's no clear indication of what happens after MI2 because there was supposed to be a 3 but it never happened. So it may as well enter Savage Reign > Kizuna Encounter but there's no evidence of that at all.
On top of that everything AoF happens before Wild Ambition which weirdly makes Mr.Karate II's inclusion canon even though it isn't supposed to be that at all.
Buriki One is a weird one to place anywhere given the information that we know about it. The game states that Ryo is 32 and the game takes place in 1999. No information matches up timeline wise that would allow you to place this game in any timeline and make sense while trying.
If you want to excuse information and make a place for it is that you only get 2 places where you can put this and let it make some sense.
In the FF canon, Buriki One would take place a year after RB1. Ryo would be 10 years older at 42 in this instance. Maybe he lied on his entry form. Seeing as nothing will happen at all for 8 years seems a good of a place as any.
KoF canon gets to set it after KoF '97 but before 2000. Ryo would be 29 in this case. 3 years shy of 32.
Given this information is that this Ryo exists in a separate timeline independent of any one we've mentioned as of now.
And as far as Robert goes is that his design was just so he didn't clash with Mr.Karate II's look in NGBC. Maybe SNK uses it in the future somehow and maybe timeline wise it does exist but as of now the facts give no definite answer to that.
The only thing WA does for canon is retcon Geese falling off the tower in FF1 where he's instead just beaten by Terry in WA. Nothing else happens and characters who appear in WA who "shouldn't" are just there to fill out the roster and those who don't appear are still there but in an unplayable fashion. Tsugumi & Toji withstanding because nobody knows where they fit if they even do.

I definitely feel more comfortable leaving the decision to the developer than the console producer. Developers want their games to sell well, which means the greater amount of accessibility, the better.
While better accessibility can have some disadvantages when it comes to game design (e.g. a games with very little depth), I can't really see how it would benefit anyone in terms of peripheral use, unless it delivers a substantially better experience than past iterations.
But, I can see how new technology can force peripherals to change, such as when certain connectors become obsolete or when older technology simply becomes too cumbersome to use.

Quoted for truth. And this is my first post. Something about delayed gratification.
Welcome!
Is there some sort of ancient ritual that needs to be done to initiate into FGC-GAF?
