TriForce's perspective on future of EMP's fighting game division
The above comment wasn't meant to be taken seriously, by the way. Emp isn't Jonestown and Triforce isn't Jim Jones. Whatever we may think of him, the fact remains that some of the best players in New York have been in his organization.
PC version of Super Street Fighter 4 AE, vanilla make top 10 list of most played
If you own a PC that can run AE at 60fps ($40 dual core CPU + $25 video card) and you're still playing the console version, you're doing it wrong.

Easy inputs aren't really the problem. The problem is that by trying to please both casual and hardcore players they'll probably end up with some middle-of-the-road solution that nobody will be happy with. If they wanted to go the Smash route, they should have stripped the game of traditional Street Fighter inputs completely and designed it completely around easy inputs. You can't just shoehorn something like that into the game and expect it to work.

I should add that 10% isn't much of a damage penalty. It should be more like 25%.
None
I don't have a problem with easy inputs as long as there's a way to filter out people who are using them in online play like there was in CvS2. I have a feeling that they're going to force us to play together this time, though. That would be awful.
Tons of Super Street Fighter 4 AE v2012 Japan match stats, Daigo, Kazunoko & more
If Daigo's dropping steamers on Japan's best, I'd hate to see what's going to happen at Evo.
Unused Okami stage theme discovered on Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 disc
This stage obviously wasn't hideous enough to mesh well with MvC3's atrocious art style.
Hishou Sagat vs. Toruneko Rufus at A-cho with extra gameplay
#4 Yeah, that's pretty hilarious. This guy recorded himself boosting.
Super Street Fighter 4 AE 2012: Top arcade player profiles incl. Daigo and TKD
#3 is correct. The BP system is a skill-based grind, but it's still a grind and Daigo spent the better part of a year not playing Ryu. The fact that he's top 33 with a character he just started playing again means that he's playing A LOT.
Street Fighter X Tekken nearly finished, MvC4 not in the works
#35 My guess is that Nitsuma's team will make DarkStalkers 4 while Dimps makes Street Fighter 5. Dimps will probably be working on SFxT version 2.0 for the next year or so, though.
