AxxesS only rarely throws the Forbidden, and when he does, it's by accident when he's going for the Shin. Gouken's overall game just doesn't lend itself well to letting that much meter build up. He needs his EX moves too much.
Though there are very few good Gouken players out there, one thing that is widely understood is that his EX catalog may very well be the best in the game, and is really the only reason he is competitive at all. Any time he can guarantee the ultra, he should, but his super is a waste of meter compared to the mileage he would get out of said meter by spending it on intelligently-selected EX specials and EXFCs.
i agree, just par for the course i've seena lot of better G1 matches just look at MirroR chen 's gouken on youtube. all akuma did was the same combo and landed a few lucky raging demons nothing special
One thing that needs to be pointed out here is that this match and the rest of AxxesS' "round 2" set were played out five months ago. We've both improved quite a bit since then, and we plan on recording another set in short order to show how we've progressed.
I would also contend that any successful demon is a lucky one. As for the combo, it's the only one I knew at the time, but I've added some to my arsenal since these videos were shot.
god, this game is so cool but a motherfucker to play on the xbox 360 controller and i dont wanna dish out over $100 for a good fight stick, im gonna go trade it in 2moro at gamestop
Hey man, I saw Hori EX2s on eBay for $50 yo... no kidding. The April re-stock must be to blame (or thank, heh). Get on there and see if you can grab one before they all get picked up.
I think it'll still take at least one more TE restock to tank the profiteering that's going on enitrely, though. I finally bought a PS3 TE, but god I felt dirty paying above MSRP for it. :(
wow that was epic ajajaja i hope to challenge you an your freind some day ajajaja you two rules

i disagree maybe the way you need to use gouken to win its all technique

That's a damn shame man. Sorry you can't enjoy it for what it's supposed to be.
Wish MadCatz would wake up and get the damn sticks out already...
AxxesS9000 2 years ago
thats exactly what i was thinking, if madcatz made a good one that didnt cost too much, i would actually be able to enjoy the game...
