Re: Q

Dear Maximilian,

Q has this thing called a kara-throw and it's one of the best in the game. You should use it a lot more along with the claw.

@2 Listen. its called the Online Warrior for a reason. NOT the Road to EVO 2012. Nobody watches Max for his skills its just entertainment and good fun. Just enjoy it or watch some of the tournament vids that posted recently. :)

@4, no way man, front page trolls who never contribute or accomplish anything demand only top 8 calibur content.

Why would you even bother playing a video game if you weren't absolutely the best?

Damn Max is putting out a ton of videos, good stuff from him.

Glad to see CvS2 getting some love,one of the most balanced and underrated games ever period.

@7

CvS2 most balanced? Hahaha you're funny.

@ #6
Because more videos = more money. Take away his parternship and watch the uploads decrease

@8...Name me a more balanced fighter.just because everyone plays it like SF Alpha 3 2.0,doesnt mean other characters arent viable,PLUS getting to choose which characters are what strengths and the multiple grooves make it more balanced than not.

@9

Lol @ this kid thinking Max makes a noticeable amount of money on his videos. He makes chump change off of them, that's why he still has a regular job as well.

@10

CvS2 is one of my favorite fighting games of all time, but even I won't lie to ya': the game isn't that balanced. There are a chunk of characters that clearly stand out from the rest in terms of how good they are. That doesn't take away from the game being amazing though.

CvS2 is dominated by A-Groove. You can do well with other grooves, but A-Groove has basically every option you want and the potential to get huge damage.

Man, this is the only PS2 game i still have and refuse to sell to this day.I don't even have a Ps2 anymore but all the fun we had in collage, 23 hrs straight at one point.My participation in my first tournament in the student activities center was what made this game so memorable to me also. CVS3 for next gen would be awesome, no hate, but this is what SFXT should have been.

@13: I agree with you. CvS 3 would be awesome.

@11..I agree,it still is an amazing game,i still play it on my dreamcast to this day.

a game where blanka is top tier should never exist!
game is good but overhyped by people that was never been able to achieve in the warrior area: 3rd strike.

@15

No idea how that avatar hasn't been banned yet, haha wow.

Also, this isn't CvS2 related, but I saw Max's road trip video and noticed that he picked up a Tatsunoko vs Capcom poster from some place in Cali, and just wanted to say that I would LOVE to have one of those. If anyone here knows where I can get a hold of one, please let me know. My PSN and YouTube name are the same as on here.

Please, and thank you.

@ #11
lol chump change? my brother is a partner with Machinima as is Max (who makes plenty of money from them and has a full time job) so I know the rates and whats excluded from revenue, looking at Max's stats (2-3 million views monthly) he's making an easy 4-6k dollars a month, chump change? No

I loved the Q video, Kuroda should make an extensive Q tutorial and stuff

Why would I want a Kuroda tutorial when I could have TM give me a tutorial?

@18 Right, that explains how he got the CVS2 arcade cabinet.

@21

(Ya sure he didn't spend it on all his cosplay money?)

@18

Oh your brother works for Machinima? How convenient. Kappa

A majority of Max's videos aren't even Machinima affiliated as they are on his personal channel. Even so 4-6k monthly (and I doubt he even makes that much) isn't exactly a top notch salary. That's why he has a regular job as well.

And he doesn't make them for the money anyway. This may come as a shocker to you but he *gasp* actually enjoys making these videos of him playing games! Whoa!

@21

How much do you think arcade cabinets cost exactly? You don't need two jobs to afford one.

On further though, maybe CvS3 wouldn't be such a good thing. I'd want the beautiful HD sprited look of KoFXIII, but if it was made by Capcom it'd be all polygonal and strange looking. I can't imagine characters like Yuri or Athena in that inky, overly thick SSFIV/SFxTK style.

@23 If #18 isn't lying, $48,000-$72,000 a year for making videos is pretty damn good. But I agree with you; you can tell Max likes making the fighting game videos. If he was doing vids only for the money he'd put all his efforts in his Call of Duty series.

It's also frustrating and frankly a little scary that more and more people are finding fault with others making money these days.

Open your KOF video game, Max! Id love to see if you can get a few good online fights going. You say you like the game, I say crack that cellophane(sp?)and lets see your take! Im sure it would be a great segment for the Online Warrior...

If only sxt was as good as cvs2, sigh...

btw, Max makes solid bank for his youtube stuff. I subscribe to some commentators who do the youtube thing as a full time gig, and they have less subs and view than max. Trust me, that stuff is damn lucrative if you can get the subs/views.

also, cvs2 is not balanced, incredibly fun, yes, but balanced, no
