LoL, that's random! I wonder what the story is behind that.... "Oh, sometime back in 96... yeah, some interesting people hung out around the office!"

Interesting and weird.
I can only think of 2 possibilities. Either the stage is available at the PSN store and the other user bought it, wich sounds really wierd cause I haven´t heard anyone mentioning anything about any DLC content yet, or maybe the stage just randomly appears as some kind of teaser for Ex Kyo (that reminds me of Reptile from MK 1).
Sibarraz, since you mentioned the online, can you give us some feedback about that also?

Does anyone know what the poster is you get from the pre order bonus?

Ok some online impressions

- I was playing against a chilean friend who lives at 30 km from me (don't know how many miles are that, I think that maybe 20 miles)

- The game felt a bit laggy, but even though I was the host, he didn't dropped almost any combo, we had 3 bars, while the maximum is 4

- Now here is the deal,

1) we don't have the super connections that maybe lots of  north americans had
2) He was using wifi AND the pc which his wife was using

So overall, I couldn't yet give a proper impression

About the interface, well, in player match, select stage is random, you never pick it, that's why I was able to play on Esaka 96, this stage is cool, looks exactly like the original one, even the screens where the players appeared was replaced for the actual artwork of the game. And no, nobody purchased it since there is no dlc on the marketplace

You can save your replays on your own HD, which is nice since you could later upload them using some video-cable

You don't had titles, only icons, you had to unlock them

Even in player matches, you can upgrade your ranking, ala blazblue

and that's it, I hope to test it with northamericans, I had the feeling that will run better than against some chileans (IN sf IV I had a friend which opur matches are incredible laggy, but with other countries run fine)

And please no use wifi : (

Thanks for all the feedback, Sibarraz.
I can´t wait to have this game!!!!!!!!!!

Sibbaraz, regarding saving replays to your HD, you mean saving the actual video file to your HD so you can transfer to a usb drive and upload to youtube on pc?

[sibarraz]

I doubt it.

btw, something that I hated is that you can had both tracks at the same time

That means, or you had the original music for XIII, or the extra tracks, I would have liked some option where you can select per character which one do you want, or give the ''press back'' option to choose whatever you want to hear

Well, maybe I'm missing something, at least I tried pressing back and nothing happened

Found an image of the stage from the KOF-I game, is haohmaru cameo in the console version?

[sibarraz]

Honestly, in the middle of the match, I didn't noticed

Ok guys, I think here is some highlight points:

Take all these facts in consideration! I think is satisfactory enough!


Now, (I remind: I'm in France and my copy is PS3 version)
Like I said I played vs an UK player, and NO noticable lag!

And this last point was literally shocked me!
I play vs a Saoudian, with 1 bar (red connexion)
and 50% time, the game runs properly, practically normal (without lag), and others 50% lag present, but, how to say... no cuts/jerks, the effects of lag are something very smooth, like a replay... like speed only slows down, but how incredible it is, all my commands and combos came out!!! o_O
to be honest, before match starting, and when i saw 1 bar (red), I expected someething ala SF4, cuts, or deconnection, but nothing!!!  and we were able to finish match quietly... AMAZING!!

so, I am aware, its just 2 matchs, but what I saw, I'm tempted to say that online is really better than SF4!!!

pending further feedback!  
(sorry about my engrish hahaa)
