I gave up on the MGS4 Integral podcasts since Ryan Payton left, but apparently there's now 10 episodes up on MGS4 for download.
Two Questions:
Who knew about this?
Why didn't you tell me?
In the latest podcast Ken, Aki and someone called Sean who to my knowledge never appeared in any of the Kojima Productions Report podcast with Ryan basically said "Do you want Zone of the Enders?" to which my answer is a big yes.
Upon deciding on this big yes you're supposed to message their page here and tell them how much you want ZOE3, so you know, go do it. If you'll excuse me I'll going to break into my friend's house and take back my copies of MGS4 and Valkyria Chronicles, there's a lot of podcasts and DLC I'm missing out on right now.
Dunno if this is a coincedence but I'm sure My Dan tee unlocked at the same time as my 50 wins trophy, as has my new black Akuma tee with the kanji on the front unlock after my 100 wins trophy. In any case I proceeded to make my Home self look as much like the Master of the Fist as possible. I'm now running around barefooted and looking like I'm in dire need of sleep.
For the record, I didn't play a lot of 2, haven't touched HD Remix (due to it being released one day before SFIV was for PAL PS3 users (Thursday then Friday respectively)), nor have I ever played 3. I have however played a lot of Alpha 3 Max on my PSP, lots of fun.
So I went into SF IV relatively noobish. But thankfully I'm not doing too badly now. My current records is Played: 161, won: 65, which is roughly 40%. My battle points for what it's worth (not a lot IMO) is currently 635, although it has been 700+.
The online seems to be much better than most fighting games, I have even been playing against Spanish players who usually have the worst connections on the planet. I had already planned beforehand to install the game on my PS3, so your experience may vary.
As far as players go I have been playing Sagat exclusively, I want to get him to a level I'm happy with before I start fresh on some secondary characters. I think he's great, love his range. I've been playing against mainly Ken users for better or worse, I've got used to his playstyle now, a lot of Ryus, the odd Sakura player, quite a few Akuma players ranging from average to pretty good, I find Gouken players harder to be honest. I've very little experience against Blanka players, the few I have played were all better than me by far.
I unlocked and completed the game with all characters on the first day I got the game but I've resisted to urge to use Seth, it just wouldn't seem right.
I'm always looking for challenges so I can improve myself, my PSN is also FLStyle, see you there.
I've been playing Valkyria Chronicles for three weeks, 70% of the way through so far. Hopefully it'll last another week or two.
Other than those two, there's no game I really want to go back to, but not many new releases I'd go as far as to pre-order. I've got a lot to do on LPB but I don't really have an urge to...
There were a few games like GTA IV and MGS4 that I felt like I'd been waiting years for but for 2009 the only game that I feel the same way about is SF IV.
