I remember seeing a cel from the shower scene printed in a video game
magazine back before the movie was released here- of course it had a
'censored' bar over the appropriate places.  Imagine my disgust when I rented
the dub (they didn't have the sub) and found it totally lacking in 'culture'.
 It just wasn't worth keeping.


Street Fighter vs. X-Men?!?  When in h--- did THIS come out?  We don't seem
to be very current with the latest fighting games down here in Cinti.

I suppose it doesn't really matter, I didn't play COTA or MSH that much, and
I lost interest in SF when TurboHyperMaxiSuper Street Fighter II (ver 3.1)
came out.  I did enjoy Cammy though- you can probably figure out why.  Give
me the days of just plain old SFII, even though the graphics are just so-so.
 I was good enough with Dhalsim to beat most of the insufferable
Ken/Ryu/Guile people who dominated the machine for too long.  Once I figured
out how to fool them into doing the Dragon Punch or Flash Kick a second too
early, they were meat.  I could also time my long Roundhouse kick to nail
them as they were throwing a projectile, then block it before it hit me.

This combo stuff is just getting to be too much.  KI2 Ultras were cool,
mainly because it was already too late for the other person, but now all you
need is some snot-nosed punk with a Gamepro mag or the FAQ sheet, who know
one 50+ hit combo, and he can stay on by cowering until just the right time
to unleash it.  Until the next snot-nosed punk with a combo comes by.


Enough of that, you can probably detect a pet peeve somewhere in there. -_-
