KOF XIII...I have no idea what I'm doing in this game. I am spoiled by easy-to-do combos. Does the game run better on 360 or does it not matter?

One thing is that the game is really picky about going back to neutral during multi-part inputs. 63214,63214 + button, which happens to be used for a LOT of supers, will basically never come out unless you make a point of doing it more like 63214, 5, 63214 + button. Also, there's no 'Negative Edge' inputs, so you're likely to get a reverse-DP command to come out instead if you're even slightly too early on the attack button. This contrasts to BlazBlue where you're encouraged to pull every input-shortcut you can, especially during tight combos.

236, 236 + button is even kinda irritating because it also needs to be moar like 236, 5, 236 +button. About the only long input that you can roll smoothly and still pull off reliably is the 2363214 one, which gets used a LOT in both directions. I keep forgetting which direction to go in for those moves, since there doesn't seem to be any real pattern to which types of moves use which direction, and you're working with a lot of those moves scattered about the roster (and use 3-characters). I keep going like, 2363214 boom! and then getting face-planted, because oh yea, it's that OTHER move on another character that goes like that, this one was 2141236... :v:

On the plus side, it's easier to pull off combos with 236 and 623 motions mixed together, and you can Tiger Knee damn-near everything pretty easily. As for me, it's helping me learn to time inputs better, because trying to do a DP and getting a QCF special instead is less immediately embarrassing than trying to do a DP and just getting crouching HP. =P

It's ever-so-slightly more time-lenient to make up for the neutral-stick thing, too, so I rarely find myself feeling rushed to finish a command. Exceptions would be long inputs that need to be performed on reaction. Athena uses the 62314, 62314 input for her only super, and it's a reversal super. QQ

Did I mention it has an aerial version (in a game where air-time is remarkably short)? o_O

People who like charge-input characters will LOVE this game, though.

Lolwut?

Just making sure it's mentioned beforehand, if-and-when we ever meet up. Until then, don't worry about it. =D

Orrax: Irrelevant because it can't be played on XBL... It's an "XBox classic". =P

I just meant, if I ever get the chance to learn it face-to-face. =D

Edit: See tubazo, look at tubazo's profile. HOLY crap wall of text. The end.

I swear to god there needs to be gloves that are really thin that have some kind of space age built in heating for gamers who's hands are freezing cold in the winter whilst playing games.

TL;DR: My hands are freezing.

I believe Thermaltake has a "power glove" for gamers.

Then you'd get Bahn Nyakus after several hours of playing. =P

Oven mitts. Perfect for mashing buttons and keeping warm.

I will give you oven mitts next time we play so you can show me how it's done.

Yo man, Balrog did it with boxing gloves, I'm sure oven mitts aren't that far off.

...What, now you're expecting skillful performance? Kids these days want it all at once, don't they? >=O
