We usually play that you can, but it takes 5Chi to heal an aggravated
wound, as opposed to the 1Chi for a normal wound. It makes gunshots a
real pain in the ass, but not something you can't get over after a day
of recovery.

As the welcome message suggests, this is a list for people who play
Streetfigher: The Storytelling Game, a pen-and-paper role playing game
published by White Wolf Games based on Capcom's arcade classic.

It is not downloadable, it is played out of a possible of 5 gamebooks
which are no longer in print.

What's up with Brazillian talk? Someone asked how many Brizillians were
on the mailing list, and we responded in kind. It was not "stupid talk".

Cheers.

We usually use a somewhat different take on the entire thing. As opposed
to "normal" wounds, one can only use a heal chi-power (Regeneration, Chi
Kung Healing, Heal and so on) to heal one aggravated wound per day. This
does greatly speed up the healing process, but aggravated wounds are very
dangerous nevertheless.

Due to all the things that happened this month (people getting back into the
school/college groove, terrorist attacks, etc.) the due date for Submissions to
Warrior's Pride will be extended two weeks to Oct. 21.

Warrior's Pride should hopefully come out sometime the week after.

Hello folks. Dreamcast games have been plummeting in price, so I've been buying them like mad. As you may know, some of them are playable on-line. Do any of you guys play Phantasy Star Online? If so, maybe we could hook up in-game.

i would but i let my dial up account run out when i got a cable
modem. It was fun for a while though, downloaded some xxx pics into
my vmu to use as graffiti in jet grind radio:)

hears a bit of trivia: back when this was just a mailing list, not a
e group or yahoo group. I accessed hotmail and the rest of the net
on my sega saturn. they had mirc and i think 2 games 4 online play
(an offroad racer and virtual on).

Sega was really ahead of the rest of the pack in terms of getting
online. thats still "plans for the future" @ sony. both companies
rock though.

what do you guys think about the x box and game cube?

DOA 2: Hardcore....best fighting game ever.
Gran Turismo 3.....best racing game ever.
Final Fantasy X....i don't need to justify this one.
The Bouncer........Mixed Reviews...but it's one of my favorties.

I could go on, but this would only turn into one of those Pepsi vs.
Coke/Netscape vs. IE/ In Sync vs. Backstreet boys...type of back and forth
discussions.

And since I don't know much about any Dreamcast game except for Phantasy
Star Online, I can't give informed opinions about "the other side".

I would say yes...seeing as I have never liked a Final Fantasy game in my
life...

That being said, the only reason I want a PS2 is Resident Evil: Code
Veronica X.

<< DOA 2: Hardcore....best fighting game ever.

LOL. Right. Doa2 could argueably be the best looking fighting game going
currently.. as far as rendered polygons go anyway... on the DREAMCAST...
since the characters look way smoother than the PS2 version.. but DOA2 isnt
even close to the depth in gameplay of SoulCalibur or Third Strike. (and I
figure if yer on a STREETFIGHTER mailing list you should have at least some
knowledge of Street Fighter games... and the fact that the DREAMCAST is the
2d fighters heaven... but hey.)


Gran Turismo 3.....best racing game ever.

If it is.. then why did I get 3 used copies come back to my store 2 days
after release? I thought the graphics were rather nice.. and it handled
well.. although the AI hasn't improved at all since GT2. Ill say GT3 is at
the top of ps2 racers for sure, and it's got the stranglehold on sim racers
with bells and whistles, but for handling, challenge, and fun factor I'd give
the edge to Metropolis Street Racer for Dreamcast.


Final Fantasy X....i don't need to justify this one.

Sure you do..(it isnt out yet either.. do you have the import? Ive seen tons
of clips of this game.. it sure looks gorgeous.. although..) since Final
Fantasy has sucked since 7 lol. I used to be the biggest FF head.. before
overuse of summoning spells, crappy writing, insignificant characters, and
GREVIOUS overuse of cutscenes made these games more like a crappy franchise
than the best rpg series. Give a try to Skies of Arcadia for the Dreamcast..
an amazing surprise.. one that took me 55 hours of GAMEPLAY (not crappy
cinemas) to complete. For comparison.. no FF game ever took me longer than
40.. and the psx games were all bogged down so heavily with scenes they were
torture. And im talking charming characters!!! Fresh setting!! Final
Fantasy 6 actually has competition now!



The Bouncer........Mixed Reviews...but it's one of my favorties.

Crap. Dream Factory was stopped mid development on this one.. it should have
been incredible.. but nothing of any quality comes under the Squaresoft
banner anymore lol. But hey .. we got more CUTSCENES!!! As a result of this
game Dream Factory no longer works for Square.

p.s. Capcom rules... and I'm not faulting what they have produced for the
ps2... even though CV is just a DREAMCAST game, and Onimusha was pathetically
short(it still ruled though lol). The problem with the ps2 is that it will
always be a 5%/95% ratio of great games to marketed crap... even worse than
the original psx. I also, surprisingly enough, really really dug Volition's
Red Faction.. that game was jammin.. quite a pleasant treat. Cyacya!

Greetings!

It can be a good idea, but it would be more convenient for higher cost
maneuvers. It would be a little strange to pay +3 points for a one-point
or two-point maneuver for most styles. One more time, the storyteller
decides.

Since Jeet Kuan Do allows it a t +1 I don't see why not. The problem would
be to get a Sensei to teach the move. Most players don't bother to learn

This is similar to my house rule where anyone can learn any maneuver, but if
it has no any cost, you must pay +2 PP above the highest listed cost. And of
course, the Storyteller must let you find a suitable teacher for it.

Sadly, I own a copy of Street Fighter EX III for th PS2, and let me tell

Street Fighter Alpha 3.

If there's any fast talkers out ere who can help me convince my friend to

Probably because Capcom in no way shape or form had anything to do with the
development of the entire EX series.. they were liscenced to Arika. (which
ironically enough was started by one of the original developers of SF 2 and
Champion edition.. but I digress). And yes, Alpha 3 kicks ass.. but play it
on Dreamcast lol.. the PS1 version is sadly lacking in almost EVERY way.
Speaking of real SF games.. I've had my doubts as to the PS2's ability to
handle hand drawn 2d sprite based games... but as I sit here at work, on my
day off no less.. I'm awaiting a package from my distributor which contains
Guilty Gear X for the Ps2. For those who may not know.. Guilty Gear X is
hands down one the best 2d fighters ever released.. (came out as a Dreamcast
import last year). After I play it to death later today.. I'll post my
reactions to it.. since I've owned the DC import since last December, I can
easily make comparisons. (BTW the game is being released for $40!! Thats the
best deal in the friggin world!! I was in shock.)

In some cases about throwing weapons..it's just best to create them
from your own rules..

Oddly enough, the PSX SF Alpha 3 has better graphics than the Dreamcast
version (characters are smaller on the DC version). I hear the Darkstalker
DC collection game for the DC suffered the same translation problems.

However, the Dreamcast version does load a lot faster and I can do moves and
combos on the DC version I could never hope to with a Playstation
controller. (Not to mention animation that is cut in the PSX version.)

I looked it up and it says maka wara works whenever "a blocking
technique" is used, and the opponent does a punch or kick.

so officially yes, all blocks work with it.

I hope there were some MAJOR improvements since the first guilty gear.
I hated it and it was unbalanced (imo). also the instant kill moves
get old quick.

yeah I notice a LOT of ppl disagree with me.
they are insanely popular games.

in my oppinion though most 2d games are better, as games. even
though 3d might be more realistic.

my main problem is hit location. I dont like how someone can be
standing IN YOUR FACE, pushing you back maybe even,, and because it
is 3d, hitting is not consistant. the target guy might be in a weird
position or it might matter if you do it left or right handed in
games like doa, and not hit.

with 2d there seems to be less glitchy misses like this. if your x
length away, move Y will hit ALWAYS.

3d games to me are like a chessgame but someone is making up the
rules as they go along. it pisses me off when something that should
work does not because of a little 3d glitchy miss.

dont get me wrong though, i have a VERY mean Nina and Bayman:)
(You gotta learn to play what the majority likes or no one plays with
you:)) I like all games to some degree (except clocktower),
especially fighting games. 3d ones are just my least favorite.

Soul Calibuir, in my oppinion, is an exception to my hatered of 3d
games rule. funny how i like that but hate tekken and they are both
namco. go figure?

I like DOA and Soul Calibur (and their various sequels/prequels). Mainly
because I like the characters (graphics and gameplay too). Bushido Blade I
almost wouldn't consider a "normal" fighting game, but I liked that (the
sequel I didn't).

I can work DOA into my Street Fighter game, but not SC very easily.

SFighter EX 1 was OK.
I liked characters in EX2, but I hated playing the game.

In general, 2D games hold my interest longer.

Guilty Gear X, I liked the characters and graphics. Gameplay was alright,
but the bosses were disgusting. The backgrounds attacking you too was just a
bit cheesy. IMO you needed the instant kill moves just to beat them. I think
any game where you need a move like that... well, there's something wrong
with that.

Man, I feel so outdated.

Had to do a 2 year break without a game system in the house, just got my
Genisis and Playstation back and grabbed some used games from FunCoLand.

Now, I'm just so thrilled to be playing Bloody Roar 2 and Tekken 3 (mainly
Tekken Force now that I've unlocked everyone and the hidden costumes).

The only other games I get to play without rentals are even more
dated...(and in some cases, just plain BAD)

Old being Super Street Fighter II, the New Challengers, Marvel Super Heroes
and Eternal Champions.... BAD being Double Dragon V & Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles Tournament Fighters.

Wish I could get a hold of Soul Calibur, can't even find a rental around
here (they've both been stolen from the rental places) ....but I'm a bit
fussy about internet transactions after getting burned twice on them.

J.J.

PS. Fixing to raid a used shop in Dallas and the local pawn shops for games.
Star Wars: Masters of Teras Kasia or Darkstalkers 3 any good? Can't afford a
PS 2 yet....

I've never really noticed. Or maybe I have and I chocked it up to something
else being the reason.
I know that in the old SFII you would hit someone and they would fly towards
you.
This is where I first used the phrase "Street Fighter physics."
In SFA III, sometimes hits will miss and fireballs fly through people (only
ever noticed on the Saturn version, but heard people complain about all the
versions).

Guess you mean the game ^^ I like Bayman, but didn't realize he was very
popular.
I think the "Big arm breaking guy" is kinda cool. Though Helena is my
current favorite. I tend to pick favorite characters before I ever play the
game. So far that system has not failed me (in me like the characters, not
in their always being the best).

Wow, I have the same opinion of that ^^

I'm told second hand that Darkstalkers 3 is "good enough."
I wouldn't part with my Vampire Saviour though (Sega Saturn version of the
same game) as the PSX is just a downgrade of it. It was my reason for buying
a Sega Saturn (that and Sakura Taisen).
If you don't have a Saturn or Dreamcast (Vampire Chronicle), I would say a
Playstation Darkstalkers 3 is better than not having one at all.

SW Masters has choppy gameplay and bad graphics. if it wasn't the Star Wars characters, the game would have been a bomb.
