    That is actually the best explanation for arakune ever.

    I will accept no other. Not even official ones.

    It's almost enough to make me consider playing Arakune.

    Almost, but not quite.

    That Arakune explanation is pretty wtf-tatstic. But nothing will ever beat Giantbomb's quicklook discovery of Teach me Miss Litchi.

    Continuum Shift GET!

    or rather my friend got it(import) and I'm playing. Mostly been playing versus for now since I can't understand all this crazy moonspeak, not to mention only people online are probably Japanese and I don't want to deal with all that lag. So I've been playing my bro a lot.

    One thing I noticed about the game is how much faster it is than the first one. It isn't a big leap but I will say movements are a lot quick. Barrier burst not putting you in danger mode is great. I had to remind myself that I could actually burst any time I wanted now.

    Been playing with Jin a bit. I have to get use to his new J.C, but it is a pretty cool air-to-air poke.

    His B fireball does indeed go as fast as they were saying. That thing zips across the screen.

    Like I thought, my biggest complain would be the changes to his 5D. The hitbox seems to be smaller and you can't special cancel it which pretty much hurts you as far as using it for a blockstring goes. Not to mention he can't chain his ice car to 5D for punish anymore so that's some lost damage potential.

    His air ice car not going as far hurts too but I'll manage.

    Jin ice breaking by itself really isn't as much of a problem as I thought it would be. Pretty much all the legit(red counter) combos I did from CT still count. The timing for some of the freezes is a little stricter now.

    His 2D is a lot faster now and I've actually been able to catch my bro out of the air with it a few times. Compared to CT where I had a bitch of a time doing it.

    The voices are a lot more noticable. I swear the match between my brother and me was "COUNTER! COUNTER! COUNTER!"

    I want to try out Hazama for a bit, but again without being able to read Japanese I don't want to get too far into the game until I can get my English copy in 2 weeks.

    Oh yeah. Another thing I've noticed is you can't hit people after KO anymore.

    I'm guessing it was for the same reason it was done in SSF4, to stablize the netcode. And since BB's netcode was already pretty good, I would only think it could get better.

    That being said I will miss my frozen ice statues.

    My friends and I had a ranbat this afternoon. I'm the worst out of my entire gaming group (well, one guy didn't show up but I'd imagine he'd kick my ass too). I wish online worked out of my house. I'm good against the AI but against other people I guess I haven't mastered all the little tricks of the game.

    Yeah, the general rule for fighting games is AI is never like a human opponent. To get better you need to fight actual people.

    Make sure you actively try and better yourself while you do it. Slinging your character against practiced assassins wildly as I do will not improve your skills.

    It's basically you creating a lobby while in training mode. When it found a match for you you go to the match, and afterwards you go back to training mode. Or I think that you'll go back to training mode. 70% sure.

    I think it's only ranked matches.
    Wait, you can do that now? Sweeeeeeet.

    I put it in the OP man.

    I'm at work ;-;

    Otherwise I would totally throw down (once I find a working copy and get GGPO to work again).

    It keeps telling me that I have "lost connection" when I log-in.

    Gonna troubleshoot it when I get home.
