Just wondering, if I buy AC+ on XBLA right now, is the +R patch going to be free, or would I have to purchase a separate iteration of the game for myself?

*sigh* I just get back into fighting games, go out and pick up EX for my 360 in anticipation of CP, and 3 days later hear they have no intentions of releasing a 360 version of the game??? Like seriously? Fuuuckkkk offff... Makes me so mad, there's more than enough 360 community to support the release... I've been hearing CP is completely different from EX as far as pacing goes, like much similar to GG in that you spend far more time in neutral and combos tend to be shorter/less damaging. Faster paced overall. Any merit to those claims?

Same here, despite my frustration at having to wait over a week this was at least a nice surprise...

I got a new 32" LCD for my bedroom for Christmas this year, and just got around to popping BB into my 360 after taking a few months off FGs and pretty much gaming in general. This was the first TV I've played 360 in HD on, so I had no idea how it'd look. To my surprise, BB on the default setting left a good chunk of the screen cut off, on all sides. It's my only game that does this after comparing my new TV to my old one. I went to display settings and tried switching to option B, and while this eliminated the issue of things being cut off, it also left very small (like maybe 2 cm) black bars on the left/ride sides of my screen. I've been told that option B is supposed to scale to your screen size, but clearly that was rather unsuccessful with my TV if it's leaving black bars. Is there any way to make it fit to screen properly? Or do I need to suck it up and play on option A where my characters back arm gets cut off at full screen and a very small part of the HUD gets cut off? (The black bars of option B are distracting to me)

That isn't what the interview said, I know which you're talking about. It was very vague and could've been interpreted in many ways.

Couldn't this also fit into the BB section as well though, seeing as it involves both games? That's the only reason I was confused, but thanks.

Not sure if this is even the right section for this but since it was the only general ASW section I could find I just took a guess at it. I was just curious about why in GG, Potemkin is a high/top tier character, while in BB Tager is consistently bottom tier. What tools does Potemkin have that Tager doesn't that make him so much more viable in his respective game. Or does it simply have to do with the gameplay mechanics being more suited to grappler style gameplay? I love me some grapplers, but I can't bring myself to play Tager against anyone other than low-mid calibre players because once everyone knows the matchup really well it's just WAY too much of an uphill battle.

Any BB stream at all this weekend? Spooky is covering SSF4 and MvC3 exclusively I'm pretty sure.

Off topic here, but you really shouldn't just copy grips that you read about online. Using a "popular" grip won't make you better. What will make you better is using whatever the hell feels comfortable to you. Many people just let their hands rest near the stick and let them flow into whatever position is comfortable for the movement they need at the time. If that doesn't appeal to you, just put your hand on the stick in whatever way feels natural, don't try and conform to a grip.
