Calling all 360 Street Fighters: SFII Turbo HD Remix XBLA Tonight
Phist \| 6:48 PM on 11.25.2008	40 comments

"That's my quarter, I'm next."

Tonight (already if you have a PS3, DAMN YOU), Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix will shine all of its glory upon the gaming universe. In Xbox360land, 3 AM (EST) is when the ball's gonna drop. I'll be staying up late alongside with Buster, Charlie and a couple of other community people. We won't get too many games in because of the witching hour, but enough to crave our hadouken hunger.

In the midst of waiting, I'll be dedicating time towards the HD Remix skin for Pinball Fx and staring at my Akuma gamerpic for hours at a time. I've been on Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting for XBLA on and off today as well. It's HD Remix Eve - celebrate, bitches!

(Please add or message me on Xbox Live, I'm cleaning up my friend's list tonight to make room for any hardcore Street Fightin' robots.)

"In the midst of waiting, I'll be dedicating time towards the HD Remix skin for Pinball Fx and staring at my Akuma gamerpic for hours at a time."

You would.

charliesuh

Uh... yea.. 2d fighting is soooooo early 90's.

3D = always better.

Why would you play this crappy game when you could play new shit like HALO TREE!

2D is for fags.

Yay.. another street fighter 2... (sarcasm).
You might as well enjoy the company of male crotch.

MrSadistic

2D is for fags.

Phist

I hate you, Lurk Ohiya.

Krow

Fuck yeah, but I don't have anything to play it with, because I don't have a PS3, so FUCK NO! -dies inside-

king3vbo

Charlie wins the shoopage

Phist, I will gladly join in if I'm still awake

Puppy Licks

The lag will most likely be bad cross-continent but I'll add ya anyways if I remember to do so :)

BravoNavo

I'll be up playing it. Yay for no work tomorrow. Go ahead and add me.

Marou

I'm gonna try to stay up and play a bit tonight as well.

Maurice Tan

Ack 9am is too late to stay up for it. We definitely need some Dtoid tourneys though :)

njsykora

Already playing on PS3 (got it free, so treating it as a demo) and will be grabbing it on 360 sometime tomorrow afternoon. I'm not staying up all night to get in.

007

Woah, Phist... I didn't know you were into that kinda stuff.

Also, I would get this game buuuuut... BANJO KAZOOIE. bitch.

Shin Oni

count me in on stayin up. GT = Shin Oni

though don't expect much as I don't have a stick...and we know Microsoft's Dpads are complete shit.

ZeroTolo

I'm all over it provided that I'm not hit with anymore random power outages this evening.

smackifilia

anybody know a good third party d-pad so we dont all have to suffer?

Riser Glen

YOU GONNA GET IT

CelicaCrazed

Here is the remixed Street Fighter Soundtrack to pump you guys up.

Suff0cat

I'm always up late at night, and I'm buying teh Street Fighters.

So fucking invite me and gimmie good time *jingles quarters in hand*

Samit Sarkar

Are you fools crazy? Even Nick Chester told me he refuses to buy this game on the 360 because of the god-awful D-pad. You can't play fighting games with an analog stick. It's a fact of life -- it just can't be done.

PS3, motherfuckers.

Shin Oni

@samit

Hori sticks aren't nonexsistant on the 360...truefact.

plus the madcatz sticks in feb. So it's not like we're getting shafted.

and you can't play fighters with a analog stick? *looks at Soul Calibur* 8 way run FTW.

Puppy Licks

Samit: what shin oni said, Hori is your friend :)

Phist

Nick doesn't have a stick. (That's what Nick's wife said...)

HD Remix was designed for use with gamepads in mind (all of you younger SNES SF2 360 owners), but sticks will always rule the school (in addition to vomit-inducing d-pad). Hori sticks are dirt cheap now, everyone go please buy one.

FitzLik3AlG0r3

Anybody wants to play tonight or tomorrow add my GT: FitzLik3AlG0r3

CountingConflict

I'll have it on PS3.. and nice pic Phist!

hcore

I sense something went terribly wrong somewhere in the intertubes.

Char Aznable

I'm adding just about everyone who commented here, if your gamer tag is readily available through your profile.

My GT is ShinigamiBV, add me if you want to play.

I'll be Street Fighting non-stop for the next few days, let's get a tourney going.

Phist

HD Remix didn't go up until around 6:30 AM (EST).

PS3? Why Conor why?

From 2 hours of play: I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME! Capcom was not messin around when they said "the best Street Fighter they've ever made".

smurfee mcgee

gt = smurfee mcgee
Stick is fine. like the joystick from the arcades. get over it.

Darren Nakamura

Meh. If I were to get it, I'd get it on the PS3. 360 D-pad = fail

mid3vol

meh. too many games to try and catch up with as it is. do you know any places where you can order the hori?
