Been an interesting, unfortunate week for Capcom and SFxT. Feels like one of those sitcom scenarios where the parent (Capcom) is trying to convince someone (FGC and public) that the kid (SFxT) isn't a screw-up.
Capcom: "Look, I know he's messed up, but things are changing, for the better, I promise you."
FGC: "Really?"
Capcom: "Yes, and don't forget, he's competing more kids now than there were before."
FGC: "Sure, but..."
SFxT: "Capcom! Look what I can do!"
Screen freezes, but the laugh track still works. Hilarity ensues.
Seriously though, finally got to try out this game with King/Hwoarang, and there is a good game there amongst the bad. I'll probably ignore gems and such, but I do hope that if I get it this year, most of these problems can be resolved.
