Migoy gets his 2nd PS3 game - Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition

twilight teeth

"Evil Ryu has vampire teeth?"

And wouldn't ya know it, it's another fighting game. I just got a brand new copy of Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition.

This was given to me as an early Christmas present from a friend, he goes by the name @estimater on twitter and tupasheep in the comments. I totally have no Street Fighter skills, never did or at least not at a pro-level, but I still enjoy a good beatdown, throwing fireballs and random shoryukens.

So far I've only done the arade modes of Ryu and Ken and tried out Evil Ryu in trainingmode. I got the ver. 2012 update and apparently you can switch back from ver. 2012 back to the normal "Arcade Edition". I don't really know how that works in online play, would the AE matches be separated with the ver. 2012 matches? I guess I'll just have to try it and find out for myself.

Again, thanks to @estimater for this awesome gift.

I'll say it again, if anybody is interested in joining the Mortal Kombat Tournament, you must REGISTER FIRST! no walk-in registration.

I'm definitely joining this tournament and currently doing some practice with a friend of the Street Fighter Tournament. I'm not good, but i at least want to bring a good fight. Going to play Chun Li regardless of Yun/Yang now present thanks to Arcade Edition. She is just my character, i know her too well. She is not considered one of the best characters in SF4 but she isn't the worst. I'm still currently looking for an answer against Fei Long Yun and Yang characters.

Mortal Kombat on the other hand, I'm registered but have no clue on how to properly play the game at the moment. It's going to be hilarious but it's all plain fun for that tournament. I will get my ass kicked but it's all for supporting their community.

Yes sorry for the delay on this information. I know the Tournament is a few days away but like i said, better late than never.

FAQ for Super Street Fighter 4: Arcade Edition in Console

SSF4: Arcade Edition is hitting consoles on June and I'm sure everybody has questions. What happens to my BB or PP online? can i fight people with the new DLC? can I fight the new characters even if I don't have the DLC? well here's a FAQ I found to give you all the info you need about Arcade Edition in Console.

It's a great FAQ and pretty much all your answers about the DLC if you had any. The people at Capcom-Unity did a good job at bringing this info together just in case there will be confusion when the DLC hits on June 7.

Just in case you missed the link above, here's one more link to the FAQ.

SSF4 Arcade Edition Receives Classification from UK Ratings Board

The BBFC(British Board of Film Classification) has spilled the beans on the release of SSF4 Arcade Edition in consoles. the BBFC listing mentions anime animator Jiro Kanai as Director, meaning Arcade Edition will have new Intro and outro movies.

it seems the new Intro and Outro movies have passed with no cuts made by BBFC.

So yea, it look like the console version will be coming out soon. AE will be adding playable characters Yun and Yang from Street Fighter III plus Evil Ryu and Oni as secret bosses. The gameplay changes of AE will also be implemented.

the BBFC also lists Arcade Editon to be released on June 24, 2011

No one was certain if capcom would release the AE to consoles be it DLC or disc-based. If it's going tobe another disc-based release there's a possibility that they would add more extra feature that would make it worth the buy. I was hoping this would be DLC instead but we will know for sure when Capcom officially unveils the console version.

What would you guys prefer?? Disc-based released similar to SSF4 or DLC instead to be implemented on our SSF4 copies??{

Local Gaming Scene - SSF4: Arcade Edition hits the Philippines

If you guys haven't noticed, we, the people in TMG, all live in the Philippines. So every now and then we will be posting some local news and events about whats new in the gaming scene. Local gaming here that's worth a read is rare, well to me at least and I just found the perfect news to start this off.

Street Fighter Fans in the Philippines rejoice! You can now flood the arcades again since Arcade Edition has finally arrived in Metro Manila. Players have reported Super Street Fighter 4: Arcade Edition machines in SM Megamall and Glorietta 4. SM Megamall apparently is the best having 4 cans linked separately while in Glorietta 4 they currently have only 2 cabs linked together.So Megamall is your best bet for more game time against players. Both are set with three rounds and a time limit of 99.  A few other have been reported having Arcade Edition but has not been confirmed yet.

Super Street Fighter 4: Arcade Edition was released last December and it took four months to hit the Philippines... its sad? very. But it doesn't matter now, what matters is we can all see first hand how the new and old characters feel. Players over here are crazy good and I can't wait to get my ass kicked by Yun players.
