Ultra Street Fighter IV
FISTS WILL FLY AT THIS LOCATION!
If you haven't been living under a rock since the late '80s then you've heard of the Street Fighter series. Ultra Street Fighter IV is the latest and greatest iteration and currently has a loyal following across 3 platforms - Xbox, Playstation and PC. Take control of one of the 44 playable characters and kick the ever-loving shit out of your pals for an amazing competitive (read as: you're going to get hella salty) experience. Toribash has a handful of people that I know who play and I'm sure there's a few more amongst you that must want to kick the shit out of us as much as we want to kick the shit out of you!
Here's the trailer:
Still on the fence? So was I, here's the latest video from Ultra Excellent Adventures of Gootecks and Mike Ross - you might not know everything that they're talking about (and neither did I when I started) but if you find this interesting to watch then it's a good indication as to whether or not you'd like to play the game with friends. I began this way and now I know what they're talking about at the very least - even though I'm not on their level at all.

Now that's done and you've bought Ultra Street Fighter (that's right, you don't have a choice. Go buy it. Now.) We can get into the good stuff. Here's the current roster list of characters in Ultra, you may want to start with one in particular before branching out. Once you've chosen a character you'd like to main, check out their move-list and put it into action in-game. It may seem daunting at first, but a lot of us are still fairly new to this game so we can all be bad together.

Got something you want to talk about? Feel free to post here with anything Street Fighter related - bugs, patches, new content, techniques, awesome games, tournament results, the pro scene, any self-organised or local endless lobbies/tournaments, help/input tips or character discussion - it's all welcome so long as it's relevant.
Oh, and if you perfected someone from the forum you have to post the game here, else it didn't happen. It's the law.

I have it, but I'm hella bad. I haven't done multiplayer with it before because of just how ass I am, and I have no idea who I'd want to main. Does the PC version use your Steam info for multiplayer, or does it use something else?
nyan :3

Yeah, the Steam version uses Steam friends to invite people into games. Also, most of us are pretty ass, I thought I was middle of the road until I went online and got totally decimated by everyone I played. I haven't won a single game of ranked, haha. I currently just run endless lobbies with Rai, Phail & sid mainly. Occasionally some other guys tag along (namely rittu and Mwah) but we're open to the prospect of new blood playing. We have a mumble so we can shit talk each other which makes the matches pretty entertaining. If you're so bad you don't know even the fundamentals you might find yourself losing a lot everywhere you go, but there's no other way to learn. We've all just about started out and are still experimenting with new characters (unless you're Rai and never play anyone else but Rolento) so if you're looking to learn you should jump in when we play.
