Speaking of FPS, I have been thinking about getting Oddworld Stranger whatever the fuck. Has any one played it?? Is it really all that and a bag o chips?

Its just like any other fps, but it has its own unique "bug ammo" sooo there is only one gun, but different ammo for it. its more of a renter, heard it was short.

I don't care about the length of a game. As long as the experience is great. But if it is so so, then I will not even bother with it.

Strangers wrath is worth the rental.

Aoi, dude, change your ava, it hurts my eyes. No offense or any thing, but your last one was much better.

I'm Tekken 5 right alot my favs Bruce cause my love for Thai boxning and Lee cause of his kicks,

I thanks the makers of Tekken 5 for making it as good as it is,cause after Tekken 4 i lost all hope for the series. Which was sad for me cause i was a big fan of Tekken 2,Tekken Tag,Tekken 3.

Post by **TheDarkness** » Thu Aug 11, 2005 8:04 pm

tekken never really interested me... Way to slow and it looked like movie fighting... I want natural violence in a fighting game not that fake hollywood stuff

Post by **Ayanami** » Thu Aug 11, 2005 8:08 pm

Tis a good game. Don't knock it before you try it.

Any who, I think Lee kinda sucks in the game, but as ya do. Bruce is pretty sweet, and has some great damage potential with walls and CHs.

Post by **TheDarkness** » Thu Aug 11, 2005 8:11 pm

that is just it... only one i haven't tried is the last one... and i never liked a single one of the tekken games. I still go for mortal kombat all the way

Post by **Ayanami** » Thu Aug 11, 2005 8:15 pm

I am sorry, but Tekken is far superior to Mortal Kombat, and I am not a huge Tekken fan. I like me 2D games like KOF and SF, but saying MK is better than Tekken is like saying that War Gods is better than VF 4.

There is no balance in any MK game, they are all broke as hell. The game mechanics don't even make sense in higher level play and is also probably the most fugly game ever created.

Post by **Libaax** » Thu Aug 11, 2005 8:53 pm

I have the latest MK and it suck i get tired of pretty fast. It was so slow and boring.

Ayanami how does Lee suck,he has nice kicks? *Come on*

I'm very new to Tekken 5 and i'm wondering how you use the walls to damage.

My little bro who is pretty with good Freddy and he plays very cowardly so he only waits for my Bruce to miss but i manhanled with Bruce elbows and kicks. When he backed away waiting for a chance to counterattack and i jumped at him box in the face with Bruces jump attack.

He has by far the best fighting style in the game and most balanced he is good at kicking and he is even better with his fist and elbows.

Tekken in genearal is all about punishing with the most damaging air combo you can bust out. Lee has no really damaging air combos that don't use the wall because of his mist step. He is a solid character and you can make him work, but it takes more work to win with him than other characters. Bruce is nice and easy to play, when you have a chance to punish, you do down forward 2, then follow up with back 4,3 then another back 4,3,4. Cheese knees combo baby. If you have a wall near you, you do teh cheese as far as you can to the wall, and then do something like his 1,2,1,2 combo. Good damage, around I would say to 50 to 60% depending on how many knees you get in.

Tekken is win, although I still like the third game more than the fifth. Tekken 5 suffers from movement which is a tad bit slower than 3's, and the level Urban Jungle, which is completely retarded, to the point that I refuse to play it.

If you like movement, then you would like Tekken 4. Step was much more improved in that game, but it kinda turned it into a poke game. I liked it, but most people prefer the more traditional Tekken play of 5.

Finally, 900 posts. Woot for me.

well i still prefer other games... most people will not agree with me on this one but i loved the bloody roar series

It may not be the best fighting game out there, but if ya like it, ya like it. I actually think the engine in Bloody Roar makes more sense than MK.

Post by **TheDarkness** » Thu Aug 11, 2005 10:27 pm

i never played the newer mortal kombat games... i played 1, 2, 3 and trilogy.... And i loved those games. So if the new ones suck... well that might be i don't know.

Also a good old school fighter. Killer Instinct. Sabrewulf ruled in that game

Good, good, go on ahead. I would love to learn some more Bryan.

The first Tekken I got was 2 and it was some serious fun that time. And Bloody Roar was fun, too. But I got too bored of it though I like the idea.

Still have GGXX Reload in my XBOX. Starting to learn this game. When I have enough and valuable info, I will post in my strat thread.

Post by **Libaax** » Fri Aug 12, 2005 12:05 pm

Yeah i can clearly see that Lee moves arent so powerful but they are sweet. He isnt the easiest to win with cause of his lack of power but i rather become so good with him that i can still win without the power.

I want also learn more with Bryan he was my big fav in Tekken 2,Tekken 3 etc. Now i cant do shit with him since it was 3-5 years since i played a Tekken game.

Bruce is so good with his knees but i wish he had more elbows punchs like a real Thai boxer.

Bruce has plenty of elbows and knees and kicks and w/e. Lee is plain fast, he does have an infinite, but all of it can be easily blocked.

just learn when you can do some safe throws and how to get out of them.. the complex ones gets you some extra dmg... stupid nina and her throws...

Post by **Libaax** » Fri Aug 12, 2005 7:31 pm

I have learned how to get out throws with Bryan but i should learn with Bruce too since i use him most.

I'm one of those who learns moves by just trying to do diffrent moves in practice,i dont use the command list much.

But i'm gonna use it to learn elbows moves with Bruce now that i know several knee attacks.

Luckylie no one in of the people i face in VS favor Nina so i dont meet her often.
