Man, these games really kick major ass. I know what people are talking about when they say you either hate these kind of games or love them. It's really awesome when you get in that zone and play out combos that register because of your actual gaming skill, and know that you are actually beating the other player with experience, and not luck.
It seems that games like Street Fighter really don't have that kind of flow like Tekken does(which is why Namco and Capcom make their separate Street Fighter X Tekken titles for the gameplay preferences). To me, I just feel frustration when I play Street Fighter. But to one of my friends, he loves Street Fighter, and the first time he plays Tekken, he just complains about how much it sucks. Which is what me and my friends tell him about Street Fighter all the time.
So, its just a matter of preference I'd say. I hope everyone enjoys this game as much as Street Fighter.
..But still, seeing my friend enjoy Street Fighter 3D while I waited for Tekken 3D for almost a year tried my patience to say the least
