Let's fighting!

Anybody interested in arranging some online 360 fisticuffs at some point?

I like to dig out Super Street Fighter 4 AE now and then, and I played a fair bit of Street Fighter X Tekken when it was shiny and new (haven't touched it since a few weeks before the DLC characters came out). Thought it'd be nice to get a lobby going one night for some casual matches if anybody's game? All skill levels welcome obviously, because I am shite.

Happy to mess around with any other titles too if there's enough interest.

Would love to but it's PS3 territory over here, hope you get some good competition. Nothing beats a strong endless lobby!

I've got SSFIV AE on 360, will be on Saturday night if you fancy some rounds. Be warned if I lose I'll start picking Ken!

[Alex79]

If anyone does fancy some PS3 action, I'm terrible in equal measures on SSFIV and Tekken erm, well I don't even remember what Tekken I have. It's the one released on the store ages ago. Anyway, if anyone wants a rumble (prefer SF) hit me up : Alex79uk

I would love to join in some fightin' lobbies if I get the chance.
Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection HD is the one you have, Odd.

[mikeleddy83]

I think I know the one, is it dark resurrection or something? not got that but I do have SSFIV (original). Didn't realise Alex79uk was you, I've had you on my friend list since I added the entire gamertag thread. I might try to get a game on tomorrow night if you're up for it?

[NokkonWud]

I'm always up for it.

I have Super Street Fighting IV and Dead or Alive 4. I'm hoping by the end of the year, if not a little later, I'll have swapped DoA4 for DoA5.

Fighter fighters fighters.... I would love to, but playing against the mainland of Australia is bad enough for me... I can't imagine playing against primarily UK players....

[Roy42]

I remember a SSFIV match against a friend in America went okay for me, and that was even while streaming it. Unless you're on the worst of the worst Internet, even Australia shouldn't be that bad; and fighting games more or less have to be precise about their PvP, so they do pretty well with choppy connections.

Totally forgot about VF5, I'm sure almost everybody has this from PS+ so could be a good call for a huge tournament!

[Alex79]

Yeah I deleted it but can download it again easy enough.

Sorry Mike, can't do today, my gaming tends to be confined to the weekend these days but definitely be up for it when we can sort a time! I say my gaming is confined to the weekend - I have just been playing Lego Indy with the kids... That doesn't count lol.

[Alex79]

What do people use to play fighting games with? I use one of the Mad Catz sticks, I bought it a few weeks after I got SSFIV, and it definitely improved my game. I got quite good on local vs mode, but the second you take it online it's like a different game. It's mental. I think I quite literally won about 10 out of 150 matches in the first few nights I was playing.

This stick :

[DomsBeard]

I bought an expensive stick a few years ago but sold it as for around 10 years I played all my beat em ups in arcades standing up so it was totally different at home.

[PressEscToExit]

Been using one of these Madcatz TEs since early 2009 and can't really see myself ever going back to pads. Great for shmups too. Gonna be gutted if it's not compatible with the next MS console.

[ratsoalbion]

Depends what I'm playing

[DomsBeard]

That Tatsunoko stick is very impressive, be worth a few bob now they can't sell the game anymore.

[PressEscToExit]

They were going for about 20 quid at one point too. Really regret not grabbing one of those

Ever try modding any of your sticks, Leon? I kinda toyed with the idea of replacing that nasty-looking SF4 art but I was too scared I'd end up messing something up.

I have the generous Mr Tom Fum to thank for my TVC stick

No I'm absolutely hopeless with stuff like that.
