• A new Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition Battle Point ranking was posted here on the EventHubs forums by Lynaken. Daigo (Yun) has taken the top spot again and has an 85% winning percentage, while Mago (Fei Long) is in second place with a 83% winning percentage. Lynaken has been doing daily updates of this list, so it's worth checking back frequently to see how things are going.
• Destructoid is looking for questions from the community to ask about Street Fighter X Tekken.
• Tsu83 linked up a couple of his older SSF4 combo videos. You've probably seen a number of these combos performed in clips before, but these videos feature some very nice editing and good use of slow motion and zoom effects. Video #1 | Video #2
• A couple of 'stickless joystick' videos were posted on YouTube. The first one from Soujistiks gives multiple angles of one of the products he designed, and the next one from CancersKill is a Rival Schools model.
• PAX East will be showing King of Chinatown a movie about Justin Wong, telling the story of what it takes to be a professional gamer. Also, FRAG, a documentary about professional gamers, mostly in the PC realm, will be viewable there as well. PAX East runs from March 11 - 13, 2011 in Boston, Massachusetts.
King of Chinatown? okaaaaaaay, awkward titles aside ~ wonder how many youtube fan movies will that spawn featuring themselves... Lord of Live, Pimp of PSN, Master of his domain, etc.
why do these two youngsters Yun and Yang have to be that good. Is it because Daigo plays Yun? - No! because also other players are pretty good with em. - Because capcom gave both a Dive Kick? Perhaps. - Perhaps Absolutely!
What in SFAlpha2 only was possible for the strongest: Akuma - now is possible 4 two youngsters. Finally Capcom realizes how good such a move is. For evil-ryu a dive kick would be a good move - but then stronger - like Cammys. But Nooo. (i know that yun and yang are there since 1997, but nevertheless)
In Mugen there are a lot of chars with dive kicks - a lot of ryus, kens and akumas of cause - cause that move IS obviously good.
Nevertheless - those two chars yun and yang shouldnt be That strong. Middle upper class or so but not "superior". Better than Akuma - an experienced fighter who fights with the dark hadou - or Sagat - a 2.26m big Muhai Thai champion. - A joke!
Minus the absurd amount of Yun it's nice to see some variety in the top Japanese player useage. Dudley and Gen up there? Pretty cool, much better than 8 Sagat's, a Ryu and a Rufus from Vanilla days dominating the top 10 or so.
