Hey, so, I hate to be that guy and burst into a thread without reading the majority of it, but I could use some help from people who aren't technologically retarded like I am.

I've been wanting to play some old arcade fighters on my PC, FotNS especially, and I've been directed towards Demul. I've gotten the game running at a fairly decent pace but the sound is super choppy and here's where I'm at a crossroads.

What do you guys recommend I use for playing the game? Stick with my setup of Demul and tweak around the settings or go to some other program entirely?

Also, if I'm posting in the wrong thread, let me know so I can move my sorry rear end over there instead.

Naturally everyone's waiting for All-Star Battle! ...Right?!

Well I preordered it off an import site so I'm pretty hyped for it, then again I'm a huge fanboy of the series.

At least it looks pretty and it's full of references to the poses the characters make, that's enough for me. Scene's gonna be dead before it begins anyway.

Just chiming in after marathoning through these, they were really well-done and I learned a lot about Capcom lore that I never knew before. Thanks for taking the time to do these articles.

I'm not very familiar with Maximilian, is he really that much of a detriment? Seems like he does his best to try and acclimate new people into the genre, but again this is from a limited viewpoint so I might be totally mistaken on this one.

Just in case people aren't sick of handcam videos of Xrd by now:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhTdzMBvrmo - Closeup of Sol's DI and special victory pose. Cool Divekick.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ki2iHqGgRSg - A few actual matches. If you wanted to see Potemkin's 3 new moves, they're in there towards the back end.

I'm not sure about how Chipp's rapid attack super being changed to look all flaily armed. I mean it looks good on May, but should the President really be stooping to such an undignified level of behavior?

So if I'm allowed to ask for a minute, I'm fairly familiar with the characters in BlazBlue but I've just recently gotten into Guilty Gear. What's Potemkin got that makes him better than Tager exactly? Sorry about the noob question but I'm trying to absorb as much Guilty Gear knowledge as I can from as many places as possible so I can try to be halfway decent before Xrd comes out.

Sorry if this was already known but do we know whether or not Xrd will still have 1-button throws or will they be switching to 2-button like BlazBlue?

I should probably prepare for a lack of robo-ky if it's not a given that everyone will make an appearance in this game. Still, I've got hope - glad to see everyone announced so far. If I can't get Robo-Ky I can at least hope for Baiken in addition to Faust, I guess!

Speaking of characters, has there been any word on whether or not we'll be seeing characters that are new to the series?

Even GGPO has a history of desynchs. 3SOE and basically every game actually put on GGPO has had desynch issues. GGPO is not a magic button because you license it.
They messed up, but they messed up on a thing that gets messed up on all the time and simply is not very easy to test unless its out in the wild.

KI is a bad game and that video is funnier because of the DSP part, but call KI bad for the hundreds of reasons that have to do with design decisions and not a stupid bug that's likely going to get patched out in 2 weeks or something on a feature that's pretty good otherwise.

Speaking of this, can you give me some compiled list as to why the new KI sucks so much? It's not that I doubt you or anything but I like lists.

Right now I'm leaning towards either Hyde or Akatsuki, is there some trick to Akatsuki's counter that I'm missing because I feel like half the time I whiff it, maybe it just has a shorter duration than I'm thinking it does
