SFIII: 3rd Strike - Game Spot versus league battle (10th Dan)

I know this is off topic but why does PS3 get the game first?

ill try to finish my urien tutorial video to celebrate the release of 3sOE ,beware eventscrubs ,this is a game that mashing will not get you far ,mouhahahahahahaaaaaaa!
PS:i know that was lame(facepalm)

Seriously...I want the 09's to give the game a shot, its awesome and if we want more games like 3s engine wise it would be good for new fans to get into this.

Anyone kno when the demos coming out??

@3 by th 09's do you mean the people that joined the scene with SF4?

keep telling people that vanao ryu is like Rx urien:poeltry

@1
Sony releases their DLC games on Tuesdays normally. M$ is Wednesdays, sadly. The only reason for the delay on 360 is red tape.

Yay, I'm glad these were posted. I've been watching these on TheShend's channel for a while now and I've been wondering when they would be posted. Good job Alpha :)

Pierrot switched from Remy to Ken? Ah well, c'est la vie.

I'll only pick up this game if its still popular months later. I mean, especially with SFxTK and UMvC3 coming out, I just can't bring myself to drop the $15. I'm still having too much fun with SFIV; but I hope for the sake of the community Capcom releases some jaw-dropping DLC to make this the definitive version of SFIII.

@5 Yes. It's cool if you started off playing SF4, but it makes me sad when they only play it and refuse to play others like 3S or HDR or even A3.

I love this commentator. He was in a lot of agtools best of videos.

@11

yea i hate 09ers who cry or think they know everything about SF, when they just started. if your an 09er who wants to play the classics, then im all for it. but if your gonna drop this game because its too hard, then thats where im gonna have to laugh at you. SF4 can only get you so far kids.

I remember playing this game online on Kaillera years ago.

@12
he's Nuki, best Japanese 3rd player

HYYYYPE!

Kuroda is the best player.

Yamazaki is by far my favorite TWELVE player. An inspiration to all of us. :)

@15

Nuki is one of the best for sure, but not the best. Kuroda has often been regarded as the best. But Nuki is rank 10th Dan with his Chun-Li I believe. Also, Nuki commentary is the best kind of commentary.

@20 Wed. It's kind of sad. I have to go to my Grandmas Funeral Tue morning so it's gonna be hard really enjoying the game. I might not feel like playing when it comes out.

Speaking of 3rd Strike, anyone interested in League play?

Or tournament play?

Well Europe gets shafted as always,we're also gettin the game on the 24th -.-)''.

The commentary may be top notch,but I'm sure only an handful of ppl here can understand it (if any at all).

10th dan is not the highest rank. There are many ranks above it and the highest should be Overlord. Here is the rank list:

As you can see, the highest rank that has been achieved is chisho.

i dont get taunts? are they for intimidating purposes(being an @$$) or there for defensive purposes( increasing defense)? everyone does it!

@26 They serve different purposes for different characters, but for the most part they increase the damage of your next combo by a nice amount. Some characters get different bonuses though, like stamina boosts.

Chisho (intellectual General) is currently the highest rank now.
The current champions are eight this rank.

Nuki (Ken,Chun-li)
Yakkun (Yun)
Pierrot (Remmy)
Matsuken (Ken)
BOSS (Makoto)
MOV (Chun-li)
Rikimaru (Chun-li)
Kokujin (Dudley)

sorry ,my poor English.

Thanks to #25 and #28 for correcting me. I'm not too familiar with the way the ranking works for Japan.

i hate the word 09ers, i was playing street fighter when most scrubs and trolls where still sperm, if u can call somone a 09er it means u think u av played street fighter a while so u r not a child, your a grown up so f*@cking grow up and stop thinking its so cool to b like "man i played street fighter back in the day man an u didnt" because if u did play back in the day then ur over 20 so start acting like it, it does nothing but divide the community.

So what player(s) would one look to for high-level Elena?

I'm sorry about that Shonuff, I wish you the best. Be strong. Remember that street fighter is a game about spirit and willpower. :) Use that and any challenge overcome you may.
