360 fixed: Resuming Mission

Posted on Dec 7, 2009 03:08:17 PM

NeoRussell’s Corner

I got my 360 back from repair.  Thank you Microsoft for that.  It didn’t cost me a penny.  I guess their warranty is good for something.

Anyways, I will need a few days to get some videos out.  Just wanted to post up since the Calendar looked lonely last week without a post.

I will be continuing the Tekken Series guides followed by a few other Street Fighter ones.  It’s been awhile since an SFIV vid came out on my end with all this Tekken hype going around.

Tekken 6: Cast Combos

Combos are a dime a dozen in Tekken.  There are so many possibilities and it’s up to you to figure out the most damaging ones.

You can do combos that can set you properly with how your opponent recovers.

The point i’m trying to make is that everybody starts somewhere, so I dug up an old video that came out almost a year ago.  This came from a magazine and it showcases almost all of the most common combos that every character has.  The reason I show this is because, like I said, everybody starts somewhere.  Take notes and know the basic of combos then improve on them and make up your own.  Enjoy.

Happy Thanksgiving My American Brothers (and Sisters)

turkey

If you are in America, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
We had ours in Canada last month. I really wish it was the same date.
I guess Canada talked to the Pilgrims before USA. LOL

I will be entering Black Friday madness in Buffalo to get in on some deals.
I might pick up a PS3 since people are asking to play me online. I could use the Blu-Ray anyways.

If you got any tips you can send me today about what not to do during the Rush of people, that would be great. Any Non-Trampling tips as well.


Good News, For Me Atleast

I have sent my XBOX for repair on my end. It should come back soon.
The tech support for Microsoft seems to be located in Philippines so I felt right at home with the Support Girl. She took care of me and got everything settled. I hope I get it back soon.

Tekken 6
I cannot even test out the Patch that was released today for Tekken 6.
I believe the patch will improve Online capability to a degree.
The reviews are in and its leaning towards good but still experiencing stupidness.  I just want to say, there is no such thing as a good Online Fighting game experience.  Maybe in the next few years but the technology does not exist at the moment.  Actually it does but not in North America. Asian countries are using Fiber Optics but that’s another discussion altogether.


Super Street Fighter IV: New Characters

So IGN recently released a new video showcasing the new Characters in SSFIV.  They are Cody, Guy, Adon, plus T. Hawk, Dee Jay, and Juri.
You can check out the video below to hear their voices and see their Ultra.

As you can see these characters are from the Alpha series. Rumor has it that the next 3 will be based on 3rd Strike characters. They seem to be Ibuki, Makoto, and Dudley and 1 more new character. Another wrestler, all I know about this guy is that he is rich. Rich like Dudley rich.


Tekken 6: Combo Videos

Yoshimitsu

This video was sent to me by the great “EgyptianDarknessTeam“. I use Yoshimitsu as well but since I play SCIV Yoshimitsu, I keep getting confused.
I dropped him for now in Tekken until SCIV completely dies. Enjoy.

SSFIV Preview, and X-Men Arcade Walkthrough

Posted on Oct 25, 2009 12:01:16 PM

NeoRussell’s Corner

Sundays are nice. Its the day where we call up our buddies and play against them or just a relaxing day to practice till you’ve had enough.

It seems that a few people are already playing Tekken 6 console.  Either with a hacked 360 or they had a buddy who works at GameStop.  It’s cool but as you can see, Tekken Zaibatsu is being flooded.  I would suggest heading there to find out more about the game you will play in a matter of days.

I’ll be taking a break from Fighting games from time to time and display other games that peak my interest.  All this fighting game we are playing cannot be good for the health.  Probably a few Side-Scroller games to start us off.  I miss those days of Double Dragons and such but hey, let’s just look straight to the future.

X-Men Arcade: Walkthrough

I played this game when I was still in Philippines.  I spent enough money on it.  It’s one of my top Arcade Games when I was growing up, before Street Fighter.  Those were simpler times.  The game is fun so try it out.  You can google the game, it’s not hard to find.  Enjoy and impress your friends if you happen to see this game lurking around in an Arcade somewhere.  The other stages will be coming soon.

Note: I’d suggest just clicking the video to be transported to my YouTube page.  It looks weird in here.  Just double click the video to be transported there.  Also, the videos are in HD so enjoy.

Stage 1: The City

Stage 2: The Factory

Super Street Fighter IV: Preview

Seth Killian organized an SFIV event in NYC recently to showcase the new version of Street Fighter IV.  He discusses few features that you may or may have not heard of yet.  On top of that, you have the likes of Justin Wong playing through the new characters.  If they only exited out of Practice mode (by mistake), we would have seen a character select screen.  DAMN!! LOL.  ALso, the people in the background are funny.

SFIV: Vega Madness

Posted on Oct 22, 2009 01:48:07 AM

NeoRussell’s Corner

I seem to be posting in the wee hours.  Probably because I just finished uploading my first HD video.  It’s great to finally transition to an even better quality of vids.

As you guys can see, I changed the template to better match the gaming atmosphere.  I liked the fact that the kids from my logo before shows togetherness but that’s not really the theme of the site so I changed it.  There maybe a few more fixes here and there but feel free to comment.

As for video is concerned, I created a Vega combo video because he is so far in the bottom list for tiers that I think we need all the help we can have to master his greatness.  Enjoy.

Don’t Forget to send me any messages you guys are having problems with any game.  I’ll certainly answer it to the best of my ability.  If I find your question helpful, I may make a video about it.

Note: Tekken 6 in 6 days.  Woot!!

Another week, another update.
I’m sure i’ll be updating like crazy when Tekken 6 comes out so make sure you stay tune for that.

If you are not Subscribe to my Youtube account, I suggest you do so now so that you don’t miss out when I release videos.  Actually, I just want to get rid of the number “666″.  That’s how many subscribers I have.  That’s awesome by the way but I just don’t like that number.  So if you are not doing anything, help me out and just subscribe.

SFIV: Anti-Projectile Strategies Part 1

I released Part II first because the Part I literally involves more strategy and proper timing.
I’m not the type to release the easy one then follow it up with a semi-hard one after.

This video showcases the number #1 strategy that Projectilers use to keep you contained.  Especially against Shoto Characters. Watch the vid and “don’t let free damage get away”.  It could cost you a tournament one day.
