  1. Proportionally, the Grimlock sculpt is a home-run in my eyes, but the size is killing me. I would gladly have paid $200 if they had made Grimmy as tall as Prime in robot mode. Oh well, I guess they don't want my money that badly.
    Can't say I agree. The $150 price tag deterred me from buying it. At $200, I would not buy it even harder.
  2. Did you ever get past Chun's trial 4-3? I'm still struggling with it. I've watched the youtube vid enough times, like you I can combo a H punch to the SBK but once the FA is added to the equation the timing seems to change and I can't get it.

    I just did that one today. What a pain! Wait til you get to 4-6!! That challenge is out of control.

    Jumping Hard Kick, Backwards + Medium Kick, Medium Kick, juggle with EX-Lightning Kick, juggle again with Ultra Lightning Kick

    I did the right sequence 3 times but missed him with the last hit. I finally got it, but it definitely took some doing.

  3. I used to watch the show in Puerto Rico back in '87. From what I remember, it was decent enough for me to watch religiously. But then, so was anything with transforming bots. The show seems to have never made it to the US. It was aired in several Spanish television markets, but that's all I know. You can catch a couple episodes on Youtube, but as for finding it on DVD...good luck. In fact, if you find a true DVD release of it, I'd be interested in buying it as well.

  4. RD Blade:

    Never heard of Gunhed.

    My mistake. After digging around a bit, I learned that there is apparently no anime version of Gunhed. I assumed there was because the concept lends itself well to anime. I saw the (horrendous) live action movie once and remember thinking to myself "I bet the anime version of this doesn't suck."

    Edit:

    Sorry for the double post. :unsure:

  5. Wasn't there an old anime, also designed by Aramaki, about a kid who finds a military powered exosuit?

    Not Megazone, though the basic premise is a little similar, though this battle suit doesn't transform.

    Gunhed? Come to think of it, Gunhed has a quasi-transformation.
  6. Cool! Glad you're happy with your purchase. $4000?!? :blink: Flat panel TV's have come a long way.

    I find out LCD has gotten a lot better and is cheaper than plasma.
    As I understand it, plasmas have truer blacks and overall better picture quality than LCDs. Also, plasma TVs are actually much cheaper than their LCD counterparts. If I had to guess the reason, I'd say plasmas are less dependable. A friend of mine went through two plasmas (LG and Magnavox) in as many years before finally buying an Aquos LCD.
  7. You can use any character that you beat the game with to unlock Gouken. I used Ken to unlock him.
    Really? Thx, that's good to know.

    Somebody should've corrected gamefaqs by now.

    Gouken Complete the game with Akuma. Then (in single round matches) get at least 1 perfect, 3 Ultra Finishes, 5 first attacks and don't use any continues.
    5 first attacks! Didn't notice that til now.
  8. I got both Akuma and Gouken the first time trying.

    The method on gamefaqs.com worked.

    Setting it to easiest and one round works well. Just make sure you're using your best (or cheapest) character. You'll have an easier time getting the perfects early on. Also, to be safe, end as many matches as you can with an Ultra.

    Use this method to unlock both of them....except Akuma must be used to unlock Gouken.

  9. Without a doubt: Blurr, seven days a week and twice on Sunday.

    Yes.

    I still haven't bought a Cybertronian Prime, all though it is definitely on my list. (Axe + Shield + Awesome.)
    I never saw the need to pick one up since I have deluxe Earth Prime. They seem to be the same design with a few cosmetic differences.

    You all make me sad. My Jazz sucks.

    He doesn't line up right in car mode, and his hips are loose, so he doesn't pose well at all.

    Sounds like symptoms of a thoroughly-played-with TF.
  10. Last night online fights: Ken, Ken, Ryu, Ken, Ryu, and maybe a Gouken etc.. this is getting ridiculous

    Now Ken is my favorite, always will be, but come on people expand your horizons.

    I know what ya mean. But when I'm playing ranked matches, I have to go with the guys I'm best with: Ken, Ryu, and Guile

    Player matches, on the other hand, are more fun because I can use characters I'm not so great at without fear of losing skill points.

  11. I actually have been using Ken, even though I was never a huge SF fan before this, I always liked the character. Still, I may graduate to Akuma now that I have him. He seems pretty complex and I'm still learning the ins and outs, so that may not be a smart move.
    If you master Ryu, all the other Hadouken flingers only take a bit of adjusting to master. Akuma is downright cheap (I'm talking Seth cheap) in the hands of an expert.
