    What was your first ever gaming console?

    Atari 2600. My wife wins that contest though, she still has her Atari (mine broke).

    So what was your first fighting game?

    My first was SF2 in the arcades, though I put in most of my SF2 time on my SNES. Years later I found an arcade that had the original Street Fighter. Damn, that game was hard, couldn't even pull off a fireball.

    What are your landmark gaming moments?

    Finishing Xenogears. To date that is still the only time I have been emotionally moved by any game. Definitely the top moment for me.

    Why I got a nintendo 64 back in the day

    My biggest regret ever, EVER, was trading in my SNES for a PlayStation. Not because I didn't like the PS, but because the SNES was so awesome. I still miss that system.

    Why I got a nintendo 64 back in the day

    Metal Gear Solid was full 3D, no 2D backdrops in that one. The thing that kept me from getting an N64 early on was the cost of all the games. $60 base price point, and never dropping in most cases, was more than I could afford. It was hard enough for me to buy $30 PS games once they dropped in...

    Who's getting RE5?

    I'll be getting it, though probably just the normal edition. The CE bonus material isn't as interesting as the SF4 CE bonus material. Co-op for the win.

    Left 4 Dead

    And boo to Valve removing the option for us to reset our TF2 stats. :( Anyway, on topic, I'm still eagerly awaiting the patch that adds Dead Air and Death Toll into vs. New weapons or campaigns would be nice too, but I'm not expecting those for a while yet.

    Good thing I avoided those hack servers this time around. Don't want my stats getting screwed the way they did in TF2. :(

    Street Fighter 4!

    February 17 still (or in that same week, depending on country).

    Street Fighter 4!

    I believe this is the answer you're looking for: http://shoryuken.com/wiki/index.php/Street_Fighter_IV#Focus_Canceling Some moves can be cancelled by a FA. If you then cancel that FA into a dash, it costs 2 super bars. So your eyes aren't tricking you, that's a feature of the system. Normal FA...

    Left 4 Dead

    QFT. It really is a co-op game, and nothing shows that more than seeing someone try to be the hero, and get snagged by a smoker, or pounced by a hunter. I did it once, and never again. It's humbling. :)

    Left 4 Dead

    Hunter is harder (imho) on 360, but also (again imho) happens to be the hardest infected to do well as in general. Some things I keep in mind to help me survive/do well as Hunter are: 1 - Remember that they make noise when crouched. Don't crouch until you're about to leap (it only takes a few...

    Street Fighter 4!

    To follow what iKotomi said, they aren't like JFs in terms of input. They're done by doing the normal move input (i.e. :2::3::6: + Punch for Fireball), but you hit two attack buttons instead of one (so to get EX Fireball, you would do :2::3::6: + LP + MP). So there's no special timing required...

    Tekken 6 PS3 Discussion

    At this point I'll just wait for BR, but I had hoped that DR online would be passable. I had really high hopes for online fighters after I played VF5 online, which I've never had a bad match in, but SC4 (and now hearing that DR online is not good) does not give me rise to think that Namco can do...

    Left 4 Dead

    I realize text is not a good medium for communication, but I assure you I was just wondering how you had found out. Re: Tank hitting cars - I did not know that reset the rage meter, I'll have to remember that next time. Re: Vomit in open areas - Too true. I've been caught a number of times in...
