He is such an awesome character. He has major speed, devastating combo's, and that sway of his rocks. He will be a major player in the tournaments and arcades due to these advantages. Although, I watched several good matches where a good Kazuya player spanked a good Steve player. Kaz has some sweet new moves. >>>> yes, i dont like what i've seen with Steve. He looks horribly unbalanced. Can you spot what the drawback is to all that speed/power/evading ability? extremely overpowered character from what i've seen. I havent seen a good Kazuya match, hes so god damn slow. His hits better do crazy damage for how junky he looks. >>King will finally be a very strong force in the game. He has always been a good character, but couldn't handle big league play against the Mishima's and Ogre's. I heard a rumor, that he >>can now reverse all moves and not just kicks. have they made his throws harder to escape? they were completely worthless against an experienced player in the past. Good to hear he's gona be souped up. I hope to hell that reversal thing is true. Im scratching my head over that UFC looking guy (the one kings after) looks to me like he's also a wrestler character, and he looks more ripped than king. Hope king still reigns as king of throws. >> mid august eh? god damnit, with my luck the crappy >> arcades here wont have them. Got to play that police > >911 game though, that was pretty decent >Soon grasshopper..soon. not soon enough, and im not even sure if we'll see it in august at all where i live >> i gotta get cracking on that too, but im too busy >> playing Max Payne. Damn this game owns >Step away and turn on your PS2. TTT calls. evidently you havent played Max Payne. Best action game EVER >I'll post a list of the rumored fighters tonight for >TTT. saw the list, who ho lee's back. any clue on if he'll be a little more tweeked than he was in tag? i liked how they expanded him but he was still kinda weak. Jins back eh. *gets ready for all the jin scrubs* all in all my opinions are high on it, but Steve has me very worried, i always thought Namco did a decent job at balancing, some characters were better than others ,but not to the degree that this steve guy looks. That and Yoshimitsu looks like crap, wtf is he suposed to be, a damn bug? ^_^x KD
