NeoRussell’s Corner

Sundays are nice relaxing days ain’t it.  I think I mentioned that before.
You gotta agree that it is nice.  Nothing beats a lazy Sunday that’s for sure.

1 update today for Tekken.  It seems to be the shit right now so I’m creating as many videos as possible with this game.  I have KOFXII but haven’t even touched that game in awhile.

I may create some more SFIV videos but with the release of SSFIV coming, I don’t know if what I create gets voided by the new system.  I shouldn’t let that stop me though.  I’m sure I will create some SFIV vids in the coming weeks.

I want to try something new as well next year.
I am in the works in creating an Anime Music Video.  I’ve always been promising myself to create one but never end up making them.  I have to stop talking and start doing.  Maybe, just maybe what I create is good but only time will tell.

Tekken 6: BR – The Art of Low Parry

Low Parries have been around since TTT.
It was created to stop the many many low options an opponent has.  I guess Namco wants to make sure that doing many lows can sometimes come with consequences.

In the long run, I see high level players not using Low Parries and it makes me wonder at times.  It was broken in the first T6 where a low parry does not count as a bound.  Imagine that, a low parry then you get a bound after, that’s a wall carry on its own.  Its a good thing they fixed that in T6BR.

Anyways, enjoy and pass it around.

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)

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.

A few things to report on my end on this lovely Sunday morning.

I watched 2012 with a friend on Friday and it was ok, I later found out that the director created all those disaster movies as well.  Independence Day, Day After Tomorrow and other ones.  Got me to think, what does this Director have against the Earth.  I also learned that when in an Apocalyptic scene, an individual needs to learn how to fly a plane.

I cleaned up the Media Section.  I for one do not trust the search function to work as I would like it to work.  I compiled all of the videos I created in that page.  I will continue putting new videos in there as well.  I do recommend visiting my Youtube page since I didn’t old ones.

BAD NEWS ON MY END

My 360 crashed yesterday.  I got 1 ringed.  This sucks but what can I do but send it to Microsoft and I know that will take a few weeks.  Now, I have a few videos that I am creating but I cannot cap new ones until I get the system fixed.  So there maybe a dark period.  NEC is coming up too and I cannot practice.  First SFIV goes missing and now System is screwed up.  Poor poor NeoRussell.

Tekken 6 Related Videos

My friend showed me a link yesterday that contained so many top tier matches for Tekken 6.  You can find them here.  You will see how Top Tiers play the game and I recommend you have a paper and pen ready to write down what you feel can improve your game.

Enjoy the video below.

Tekken 6: BR – Buffering

I recommend you practice Buffering with your Character.
Top Tier players use this all the time.  Again, it greatly increases the chance of the move coming out.

Pick any 2 digit moves that your character has.
Hold 1 button and correspond it with the next one.
Don’t forget to pass this video around.

Here in NeoRussell.com I don’t discriminate on other people who create other videos that will certainly help players in their game.  With that being said, since there are so many Tekken videos circulating around, I figured to buy me time, I will be posting what might be helpful to other people as well.

I mean my videos are great (IMO) all but I ain’t the best, I just try.
I certainly cannot create 1 everyday.  It’s great to see that other people are assisting in helping new or even old players.

I am in the middle of creating a few videos so that’s something to look forward to in the next couple of days.

There was Buffalo Tournament last Saturday which I competed in.  It was a great Tournament.  Don’t ever doubt Rumble in the Tundra tourny’s.  Cha Cha  is the best at what he does.

Official Results are here.

Here’s my placing:

Tekken 6 – 2nd Place
Got murdered by one of the best Lee Players “FightingGM”

On the good side, he was the only one who took me out in the entire tournament.

SFIV – 7th Place
Used Vega all the way.  Got through a few difficult players.  I beat the guy who sent me to Losers as well so i’m happy.

BlazBlue – 4th
This game, I got to say, you really need to know your match ups.  If you don’t, you will pay dearly.  The reason I survived that long was because of that same reason.  It was fun until I played the other Toronto player.  LOL

I didn’t play Soul Calibur since I havent touched that game in forever and it would just be free money for the people who does.  I used that money to buy me some food instead.  LOL

It was a great tourny and it will boost my experience a few points up.

Tekken 6:BR – Lei Combo by Tony-T

Please keep in mind that Lei is not an easy character to pick up.  He has many different stances that will probably make you shake your head so just a warning.  He is fun though.
