What are you playing now?

    I believe there's an option for it. Look for camera bobbing or something similar.

    Thanks found a mod that let me reduce it a bit (ZRP for anyone interested)

    Also the Complete 2009 mod makes this game look incredible, and tax the hell out of my video card.

    I don't really know where to put this, but it's probably not that interesting to you guys anyway.

    UK's version of Evo starts in the rioting capital from tomorrow to Sunday evening and should be streamed here (if not search for Super Versus Battle). If they stream BlazBlue groups I might show up, finals will all get streamed on the Sunday but I doubt I'll make it that far as I have been slacking off training and crunching at work.

    Yeah, the official line-up is:

    With some unofficial side tournaments. I imagine the Friday stream will be all SSFIVAE and the Saturday will be all MvC3, because that's what people want to see. All the finals will be streamed, though.

    I don't know much about fight pads, I personally use this (I have a custom on order that was due here about 6 weeks ago)... A friend of mine brought the Madcatz Street Fighter Pad and seemed to like it, but I didn't like the d-pad as you really needed to force it down. Sowwy.

    i really want to get a fightpad to start out with, but i want one with a usb cable, not wireless, and those things don't seem to exist for the PUSS3. the hori stick looks pretty cheap, but can it stand up to TE sticks?

    I got the MVC2 edition tournament fight stick for ma PUSS3 and its a usb cable... But they aren't the cheapest

    Beat Limbo. Kinda disappointed. They had a good twist going at the end, and then they twist on the twist, right into dumb, explaining nothing, and cut to credits. I wouldn't even know who the girl at the end is supposed to be if it weren't for the product description on the steam page, it explains absolutely nothing ingame. There's some neat atmosphere stuff as you go along (the wild boys, the mind slugs, the ruined city, the sci-fi stuff at the end), but it all builds up to nothing. They could've had a neat Jacob's Ladder type deal going on, and instead throw it away for typical artsy fartsy vagueness.

    Beat Limbo as well. Indeed, it's a bit vague... But the gameplay/ level design is super good Definitely not disappointing. And the atmosphere was enough to keep me going so meh.

    I just finished Limbo too. Great game, really nice atmosphere. My only gripe is with the ending, it sucked some major balls. You can't just end like that, it gives the player no satisfaction...

    Stream didn't really happen as the venue has rubbish internet and we had four power cuts. Marvel vs. Capcom is up on the link and Super Street Fighter will probably be up soon. Might post the BB matches when they’re uploaded if they include the crowd noise. People weren't happy two relatively bad players made top 8 with an imbalanced, faceroll character. And proper imbalance, none of this Sagat -> Guile -> Yun nonsense where people just need to man up.

    Fairly sure one of mine was recorded too and, spoiler, I lost. But the commentary setup meant someone from the other team was talking, so if it’s not too hostile it might be funny to post for the trash talking at my expense.

    It’s not an amazing stick and one of the guys at SvB has a kind of running joke about how low-rent it is, but it does the job. It’s not really about which is better but what works for you, yeah? I’m getting a replacement but that’s mainly because it’ll work on DC/PS2/PS3/360/PC using some funky modification. Seimitsu stick, sanwa buttons, custom art.

    You basically have three main manufacturers; hori, seimitsu and sanwa. People generally believe sanwa have the best buttons but be aware you only need to breathe on them to activate, whereas the others need to be pressed down further. Seimitsu sticks have less deadzone and are quite 'tight.' Sanwa sticks are known for being quite ‘loose.’ Generally the former are used for shmups and the latter for fighters.

    The TE uses Sanwa parts for everything but isn’t particularly well built (if anything it’s the contrary), it just got the SSFIV brand and they could charge silly money for it.

    Edit:

    The main event matches are uploaded here and there are so many good ones, but I know I’m chancing my arm linking any of these in the first place so I’ll keep it short.

    You can’t really hear the crowd except for during the intermissions but it was really harsh. Mike seemed like a nice guy so I’m glad he smiled through it. It’s hard to describe exactly how stupid. Noel is, though. I could live with the mental damage if she didn’t get by spamming moves with crazy invincibility that can be cancelled into mix-ups on hit, block and miss. Shout outs to 2D (the cartwheel), 4D (the ricochet) and jump-back super.

    Raw MvC3 final footage was lost because when they mobbed the winner they hit the fire doors and that cut the power for some reason (happened five times, pro tournament).

    I have the Hori and the TE stick

    obviously I use the TE stick more but the Hori is really not that bad at all. For 40$ it's a great deal. Besides the slightlyh different feel the buttons are a little stiffer and there is a more noticable click when you hit a direction on the joystick. Really unless you are a really constant player Hori is fine.

    Been getting back in MvC3, I have to remember to throw out my SF habits and get back into the carnage. Fun game although if I was playing it competitively I can see myself raging at some of the nuts combo juggles some teams can do.

    Still need to get Balzblu, did the new one just come out?

    Even in casual play MvC3 causes a lot of rage.

    The latest disc release was Continuum Shift which is fairly old now, but Continuum Shift 2 was a recent free rebalance patch and they have released three DLC characters. If you grab all that it’s pretty recent.

    They’re location testing Continuum Shift 2 Plus as of this week but that won’t drop on console for a while. Relius Clover has been added as a new character and I suspect Kokonoe will be playable too given how much screen time she gets on the arcade attract trailer. Relius seems to play like a Jojo’s Bizzare adventure character and summons robot made from his wife, and his son Carl Clover is trying to kill him (who fights with a robot Relius made from his sister but threw away). Best family ever.
