I’m a Mitsurugi fan. I will destroy the hell out of anyone. . . .i dont give a fuck who it is. Yoshimitsu is hot too. He is like an “upgrade” from Mitsurugi.

Yoshimitsu simply rulez. Not only in SC. In Tekken, too.

What kind of critic could I be if I wouldn’t allow myself to be criticized?

I must admit that I was being a bit of a prick, and I’m glad that you responded in such good spirit. The truth is that I quite enjoyed your article. Minutes after reading it, I found myself overcome with the desire to play SCII again, but unfortunately I have no one to play against.

Perhaps I’d have more friends if I wasn’t such a prick. ;)

Simon: I’d be annoyed by your response, if it weren’t such a good burn.

Sean: I played Naruto 3 I think with some guys on campus. It did feel really intuitive and whatnot, but I can only play a non-translated game so long before I get tired of it.

AJ: NEED MORE SOULS.

I bought Soul Calibur II for GameCube because it had Link. My friends and I played it for about a week solid, and I eventually got good with some other characters like Kilik. But the game has some bizarre controls (I had to make an arcade joystick to be happy with the setup, but then, the GameCube controller was not designed with fighting games in mind…at least not the traditional sort).

Then we went back to Super Smash Bros. Melee
Now THAT’s an awesome fighting game.

Fast forward 5 months: We had gotten into an anime called Naruto. It’s pretty popular, I hear. And on a college campuse where filesharing is king, you can grab the fansubbed Japanese episodes about 3 days after they air in Japan!
So, we bought Naruto Gekkitou Ninja Taisen 2. That’s a mouthful, but it is one of the most polished, intuitive fighting systems in existence. The game is dang near flawless. The only problem is that you need to be generally familiar with the anime to know what the hell is going on.

You know what I like to do? I like to use short, punchy sentences. The shorter the better. Like this. Or like this. Because I believe it injects my writing with a certain freshness. An immediacy. A conversational flavour. Some might say it’s a hackneyed style. Not me. I love it. Because it’s fun.

I’m a fan of both games. Siegfried is my weapon of choice in SC3. Still need to wait a few days till the New Smackdown. In the meantime…the soul still burns…
