It's been a while since I played 3S but I played a bit on FightCade yesterday and damn, I've missed this game. I'll be on tonight as well, let me know and/or send me a challenge if anyone is up for some matches.

Also, Stevens, could you add 3S to my list of games? Cheers

Thanks Stevens! Anyone down for some games sometime this weekend?

Ended up spending my Friday night drinking beer and practising combos in Vampire Savior. I absolutely love this game but I feel like I have a long way to go. Stevens, would you mind adding Vampire Savior as well to my list? Thanks

Likewise sir, you have a solid game with Chun. Never thought I would like Blanka as much as I did after running claw for so long, he is quite fun. I hadn't played a 40 match set like that in years.

My wife brought up that if I don't play over wifi next time we should have a smoother session. I think that will help a bit:D

Also I'll add 3rd Strike to my list even though I don't have a main, can't really parry, and am trash at it. Despite all that I really like it. And that animation....drool.

Edited my game list.

Cheers, Stevens, yeah had a great time! :D Seems like something was up with my internet today though as it was pretty laggy. I tried playing against other people afterwards and it was just as bad. I had a full internet outage earlier in the day as well... Hopefully it'll be more stable next time, that's the way it goes sometimes :) Had a lot of fun!

Just discovered this is a thing - there is a training mode for 3rd Strike on Fightcade.

https://www.reddit.com/r/StreetFighter/ ... including/

I need a reliable training mode to practice parrying certain moves that aren't fireballs. I have the DC version but the parry window in that is borked. Hopefully this will fit the bill.

Cool, I’ll check it out. The 360/PSN port has a really good training mode though with various scenarios setup for parrying, combos etc.

Got it working and it is pretty good. Having trouble playing back for some reason, but you can control the dummy too so it isn't that big of a deal.

Make sure you download this one though -

Also I've learned some things regarding parrying I'll share next time we're in the lab, presuming it's not things you're already aware of:D

Played a set with Blue Willy Woo (I think that was it). Very humble - My favorite line was "My mak belongs in a trash can".

The only thing in the trash after an hour were my teeth. I won here and there, but overall a far better player.

Learned some good things though and look forward to playing him again after I refine my business a little more.
