Yeah they definitely do. I can run off a dozen things that are wrong with this game. I still play it but it could be so much better. And look atthat list of players in that tournament...

looking at that list, i'm not surprised to not see akuma on there. i play with him as a secondary character, but he's wayyyyyy too weak in this game.no idea why capcom didn't at least include shin akuma. dude has no stamina whatsoever.

yep, smh. i used akuma on marvel vs. capcom 2, sf alpha series, etc. exclusively, with sagat being my secondary. now it's reversed, andi'm using akuma less and less. he's too weak. his ultra/super combo... i've only managed to execute on noobs because it's so easy to jump over.i can teleport with ease, but most of the time an experienced player will still get to you. capcom needs to make a more powerful shin akuma.Originally Posted by RavageBX
Akuma is my guy but I had to move on. I'm an aggressive fighter and while I like Akuma's mix-up game his inability to take a hit and his limited super/ultra applications are really exposed in this game. You can be whoopin on someone an entire round, only suffering a few pokes here and there, slip up and get hit with an ultra and its curtains. Most Akuma's I've played do nothing but run and air fireball, it's kinda sad to see him reduced to that. And I just laugh when someone tries to raging demon me cause 9 times out of 10 that means I get to punish with a big combo.

They basically nerfed the hell outta Akuma. The only reason I believe they did it was cuz fans were getting tired of getting whopped by him so easily cuz hewas as powerful as Sagat or Bison and was just as fast or even more fast than Ryu or Ken. Not to mention his mix-up/cross up game was ridiculous

still, he's better in mvc2 than sf4. his super combos were better, and the game's physics allowed for an effective akuma. in sf4,can't be effective without air attacking and teleporting, basically being a runner.

To dude who brought the TE Stick from that spot in NYC thanks for sharing I will check it out.
Second to dudes talking about Akuma I believe they had to make him how he is if not everyone and their mother would have been cheezing like crazy with him...as if they don't do that enough right now.
When you fight and Akuma online all they do is air fireball and that's it. You try to get close and they teleport all they do is air fireball if you startapproaching, and if you keep your distance they do that half circle fire ball which is like and EX fireball be cause it's x3 or something... if you getclose to them then they teleport and start the cycle over again.
Also, to answer what RavBx wrote hell yeah he loses a lot of energy because I had Sagat and only had a poke or two there and dudes was cheezing me like crazyand try to be flashy and Ragin Demon me and I hit that fool with the Ultra from straight off the floor and it drained his whole bar, but didn't kill him soI just finished him off after that.
Most dudes playing with Akuma don't know what the hell to do once you get in close with them.
I'm debating if I should get an Hori or TE Stick for the 360 or just get a fightpad to hold me over for now...

If anybody still needs a fightstick check this out from SRK:

First I registered an account with WiiAlerts. Then I set up the TE fightstick alert to be sent out via text.
Then I set up accounts (with billing info ) at Amazon and Gameshark and added WiiAlerts SFIV fightstick page to my favorites bar.
I missed the first chance, but on Monday I got an alert and immediately went to Wii Alerts and clicked through to Gameshark and placed my order in under a minute. The sticks were only in stock for two minutes.
The stick arrived today.
The strange thing is that I think MadCatz' system is completely overloaded. My stick has been delivered, but my MadCatz account page is still showing the order as "in progress" and not shipped. I had to call in after my card was charged and find out what the deal was. The guy checked it out and called me back late yesterday afternoon to give me my tracking number. Still no update on the progress page at this point.
He said that they had to cancel some orders. He seemed to indicate they would not get any more stock until the end of the month, but if thats true I don't know where mine came from.
Anyway, you guys may want to try WiiAlerts, but make sure you have an itchy itchy trigger finger, because you have to act fast.
And my apologies to all the guys with long outstanding pre-orders that have not been filled, especially the Canadians. It sucks that the Gamestops of the world oversold their allotment so bad. Its why I never pre-order.
It work too.
Got an alert that Gamestop had some and bam.
My stick should be here Tuesday
AND my xbox should be back Monday
