[544001]

These are really fun, you should keep this up. Maybe one with chun-li later?

[Demono1191]

wow that ending sucked 

[ichigo965]

awesome

[WilltheGamer]

I don't know what it is, but I love to watch akuma win. :3

[burryXmeXplease]

dude i love these matches you put up. i can't wait to do this in the online edition this summer

[lled78]

Nice vid. I can see you put a lot of thought into the flow of the fights when creating the script. I voted thumbs up.

[Volcre]

Last set of 3 was absolutely epic. Although I have to say I preferred the old format as well. You were far more likely to see shenanigans and things out of the ordinary. The first two matches weren't as interesting...

[Furai47]

Did you intentionally make them look and behave a bit like Dante and Vergil in the last match?

[RobertHollow]

A good ol' standing jab to end a set of epic matches. xD

[Gungrave2k6]

crazy fun to watch, the third fight was too epic lol. thanks for taking the time out to do stuff like this, i look forward to more soon. bless.

[AlexxShadenk777]

@Gungrave2k6 Thanks for the warm appreciation too!

[AlexxShadenk777]

@trellascales6 This question makes no sense.

[freddiegibbs101]

Loved it

[rainy153]

wow the end was god like

[Jibajoe]

I noticed at 4:33 that Ken didn't flash when he parried the air fireball. Is that a bug?

[AlexxShadenk777]

@Jibajoe It's not a bug, it's rather the fact that youtube converts the framerate and so I suppose the frames in which Ken was flashing were simply dropped during the process. He flashes in the original video (which I still have in my hard drive).

[TheLuNaMaStEr]

awesome finish to the vid

[darkhokage]

I didn't know you could parry Akuma's secret super art :O

[AlexxShadenk777]

@darkhokage You can't parry the lightning (the first hit) but yes, everything else that follows can be parried.

[YellowNeon]

I personally like this style for the videos better than the previous ones. It makes the endings of rounds look a lot less obvious, and the fights more entertaining. Keep up the good work.

[AlexxShadenk777]

@YellowNeon Nah, I was not going for true realism, of course, otherwise they wouldn't even parry unless absolutely safe to, or alternatively, one of the fighters would be blocking until they found an opening. The almost constantly rushdown mode from both sides is to simply keep the ball rolling without lagging and, yeah, that is exactly one should do when tool-assisted, the fighters shouldn't be allowed to breathe until they deserved it!

[AlexxShadenk777]

@YellowNeon Thank you, I most likely shall, though taking a look at other respones, I might want to do variation between rounds from now on that switch between my two styles of TA'ing, and it should be noted that it was the obviousness itself that pushed me into this direction.

[YellowNeon]

@AlexxShadenk777 Yeah for me the parrying and combos were always cool I like how the video doesn't end with a double KO to Judgement now it keeps you more on the edge. :)

[BeamSplashX]

I think fights like these are more along the lines of what an "ideal" SF3 fight is supposed to look like. Good amount of drama/back-and-forth to the matches.

[AlexxShadenk777]

@BeamSplashX Thanks.

[silverrainfell]

street fighter III > street fighter iv

[AlexxShadenk777]

@silverrainfell Everyone knows this.

[FlawlessMatador1]

@silverrainfell I agree but the current generation of fighting game players is full of crybabies....what happened to the good ole days...

MvC2>MvC3

SF3>SF4

[drkapow]

one thing that I don't quite like about these, more than the silly parrying, is the fact that its always both chracters just rushing eachother down with no hesitation

[AlexxShadenk777]

@drkapow You'd be surprised with how many solid players do rushdowns with no hesitation.

[drkapow]

@AlexxShadenk777 I'm not saying top players don't do aggressive rushdowns, I'm just saying in your videos it's always back and forth of both characters doing all in rushdown. I know it probably makes it more interesting to watch, but if your aim is realistic match representation you could try showing more different play styles. Keep up the good work

[Shikamaru78]

Last match was clearly the best. Good stuff

[AlexxShadenk777]

@Shikamaru78 Thanks.

[Sanefox11]

the last match was amazing, good stuff...

[NeroWesker]

You is awesum! :D Great vid.

[ExBlankaBall]

do you use an emulator to play this game? or is this recorded using a capture card?

[AlexxShadenk777]

@ExBlankaBall Emulator, of course: Final Burn Alpha ReRecording.

[stekelly1980]

[kidkendude]

But I loved the long parry sessions..

[AlexxShadenk777]

@kidkendude Well you can always watch the other stuff then.
