Here’s the pilot episode of my new Street Fighter IV video series, “Theory Fighter.” (youtube link) I basically just lay down the groundwork for the actual episodes coming, and spill a little about my brief time being a Street Fighter fan, and how I’ve gotten to this point. Episode 1 goes into production ASAP. As always you can check out all of my audio/visual projects at my website, loltima.net

have you got a boom for your camera? might help if you record more eps outdooors; sound got a little fuzzy at the end. seems promising though, ill keep watching. Quite like your editing too.

Yay, been waiting for this

You shouldn't just pick up and drink random Pepsis from outside your house. Nice vid.

"You shouldn't just pick up and drink random Pepsis from outside your house. Nice vid."

HA HA like COPS ride along. I am in the same boat with SF. I will never be that good but I am alright.

Dude, your vids are the shit! 

I wish I could play you some SFIV, but I don't have the 360 version 'cause 2 of my friends went PS3... plus I also got mine autographed by Seth Killian + Yoshi Ono and went to the Sony Sanctioned Street Fighter Club Event, so it all pushed me to PS3. 

Anyway, thanks fer making this stuffs and keep it up! 

i hate guile too
this is great!

1.  You say "umm" too much...just like I do when I make any videos.  Script your stuff together for some better flow, as well as allowing you to add more into your videos without worrying much about time limits.

THERE'S NO ESCAPE!

Bison may have plumbing, but Balrog is opening up a Deli like his idol Bam Bam Bigelow. It's going to be called Buffalo Cuts, man. Word.

Very nice video man, looking forward to seeing more of it.

I didn't buy SF4 to only play one character. While I do have my main , it doesn't mean I'm sandbagging if I'm playing my alts for fun (I'm still playing to win but just with a character I don't know much about, hence I play them to learn more about them). Me and my friends usually do best of 5 or 7 using our mains then use our alts to explore other characters. Who knows given enough time, my alts will be my main when I get good enough. If I'm playing a long session with somebody, the game gets boring real quick if I'm always facing the same character. After all when you hit a slump in learning curve with your main, the game can still be fun when you got alts.

I wanna learn how to play as Gen.  He may be paper thin, but if you can actually land that one combo...it's virtually game over.  lol

That is a pretty sick Gen combo, gotta admit. My camera doesn't support boom mics so unfortunately until I get a better setup in HD and all that junk (which is coming) I'm stuck with the interference. It was shot on a ridiculously windy day as it stands and for the actual episodes I'll pay more heed to these things.

@Jacob187 -- points taken. I didn't do much fancy with this video because there was really no reason to, I just wanted to get this pilot out of the way so maybe people would understand better what's on the way. The actual episodes are going to be super-produced, and likely take a lot more man-hours to complete. Scripted and all. I just wanted to speak off the cuff on this one.

I've always had trouble looking people in the eye, be it in public speech class, or just everyday conversation. I know it's weird but the camera lens is even more frightening than someones eyes, because it's like hundreds of eyes all at once. Although I could avoid looking at the screen by flipping it the other way I suppose!

Thanks for all the comments!

Cool stuff.

@EightBit
Buffalo Cuts, I sense a ridiculous audio podcast with that title on its way?!!?! That would be sick.

Good vid ultima. I'm the same way with street fighter and i've been playing it since SNES. Before fighting games were online I just played my friends and destroyed them. Then I played Capcom vs snk 2 for the first time on x-box live and got my ass kicked for awhile till I started watching replays of how others played and looked up some combo vids.

BADASS!

I've only been a street fighter fan for a little over 3 months but it's pretty much been my life for that time.

Man, your editing skills are fantastic. Great commentary, can't wait for the next video...let me know before you record though, I want to try and kick the shit out of you again. I have a feeling I just got lucky last time.

More star wipes in the future? I'm not so sure. As far as MB goes, I have just recorded some videos with Jacob187, and I have to do an El Fuerte coming up here soon (he knows who he is). But after that it's the MB rematch of the century.

Great vid.  I actually just started playing Vega a while back because nobody played him and he was really considered so bad.  Once I started getting really good as him and understanding his offensive/defensive capabilities, I play pretty much exclusively as him in serious competition.
I pick other characters just to keep me interested, but if I'm going to win, I've gotta pick Vega.

Thanks for pointing out that your name was spelled with a "K," otherwise I would have put that video up online and everything with a "C." Currently rendering, wait time 4 hours, attempt TWO. Jesus After Effects crashing is ridiculous.

Nice video :D But im confused ... do you agree that certain moves and skills such as x-ups are "cheap"

 Few good 5 round matches in there, and I can't even count how many times the words "*ugh*, that damn combo" came out of my mouth!  lol  

Pretty much nothing is cheap to me unless you're Sagat, but that's a different story altogether.

As for that combo, I have to say as Cammy it's really stacked against you, as I can punish almost everything you do on block with that glorious combo, whether it starts with s. HP, c. MK, or just some jabs. It's all gravy.

Man the replay feature is really handy. I picked up a few combos as balrog by watching two higher calibre fighting duke it out :)

Street Fighter IV is pretty fun. Can't say I understand a word otherwise in this post. :S

Great editing, keep the play to win attitude especially this the Theory Fighter. Great pilot too btw.

dude ace work on the vid, you seem to have a great personality so it makes watching something like this bearable.

Tons of potential... but the Pepsi drinking was a tad distracting at times. Also, you coulda tilted it up a little more to not cut off your head. Lookin forward to the next installment!

that gen vid is sick!
