Personally, I'm more surprised that they kept Arcana Heart in the mix considering the bitch move that Yuki Enterprises pulled last year with the Arcana Heart Full "Upgrade" (that was really just a patch but charged $1400 for it). Ecole deserves a lot of credit for patching bugs in arcade releases free of charge.

I bought the DVD and I have to say the matches on the AH2 are beyond awesome. They're sooo fun to watch. I'm glad they kept it. I can't imagine seeing the stuff on the DVD live and the whole crowd just not going nuts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yMAVhhLNGQ

I'm not saying AH2 is a bad game at all. It might be more solid than MBAA. I just don't like how the publishers tried to sleaze extra money and caused a situation a while back where half the qualifier locations could only run AH instead of AHF because they couldn't afford the upgrade.

well yea that is a shiesty move but i'd say the majority of video game companies are in it for the money.

Isn't that why you set up a company at the first place? To earn monies.

Well considering that SBO is a business first and foremost, there's nothing to be surprised about.

There's nothing surprising about the fighting game with the second-highest coin drop rate in Japan being passed over?

Wait, what?

It very well could be a business-related decision (ie: Ecole/Sega's licensing terms could be so onerous that it really could price them out), but something else is going on here.

Capcom shelled out the big bucks to get the slot?

What's stopping them from just running 10 games?

They got bought the fuck out, plain and simple.

Isn't it sad, Ecole?

I've played TVC, it's incredibly incredibly fun to just mess around in. The whole presentation, the graphics and sound and everything is just fantastic. It's possibly one of the most well-presented fighting games ever, along with CvS2 and GGAC.

I'm with Sabator on this. I accept the game is a broken ass pile of crap but all the bad design seems to flow away when you play like a scrub with some friends.

I think F/UC falls under a similar category really. It's not that great a game in expanded terms, but it really is fun to play if you give it the chance. Don't ask me how.

I'm surprised nobody caught that. Chibi is right. We also have to remember SBO is more for entertainment than a real tournament. Think about it. It's almost a 2 day advertisement, with old popular games randomly thrown in there, or people paying out of pocket to keep games in (cough3s.) It could very well be that MBAA is just not as entertaining to watch. Look at the competition. You have Crazy combo fighters, the greatest thing to the FG community since SF2, and juggling sheep.

Have you heard of MBAA Ver.A
You know, that patch that is supposed to fix that?

Unless that is ver.A and it wasn't fixed, but I SERIOUSLY, SERIOUSLY doubt that.

And fuc is maybe like a totally, totally broken MBAC with no balance at all and different mechanics.

Oh wait, that means they're pretty different.

I laughed at your post. You've obviously never played FUC or you've never played melty blood to a level beyond mashing out 2c with kohaku.
FUC is more balanced than Melty blood by far. Sion is more poorly balanced alone than anything in FUC. At least in FUC the bullshit ended up on everyone and not just a few characters.

You know what? Let's be realistic. Melty blood is complete ass to look at, and what with the gameplay in actress again being completely shit would YOU keep it around?
SBO's real purpose is to put on a show to be watched, after all. Don't get me wrong, I love playing melty blood- but honestly it's not much better to watch than SF2, and ecole doesn't have capcom's kind of bribe money.

Oh good one, attack his username.

Seriously, MBAA is defintely more balanced then FUC. Gilgamesh on his own is enough proof for that statement. Noone in MBAA even compares to the options and advantages he gets in FUC, not even close.

Not that I care, I play both games anyway, but you sound like you're talking out of your ass anyway.
