    THIS is how you do hitboxes

    SFV's hitboxes are not tied to the character animations. I just saw this posted over at Eventhubs, and I think it's an incredibly smart design decision by Capcom. Gif of it in action here: http://www.eventhubs.com/images/2016/jan/18/dantarions-game-street-fighter-5-hitboxes/ This eliminates a...

    Call the Top 8, win $50!

    Does MLG have archives available?

    Something has come up, and I realize now that I'm not going to be able to watch the MLG action at all on Saturday. However, on Sunday I'd love to catch up and get to watch it all before I come here and see the winner. Does anyone know if MLG has the video archives available to view after...

    Hugo

    I expected to be most psyched for Poison, but ever since the game has come out, Hugo has surprisingly been the most interesting character of the 5 new guys. Something about trying to make this behemoth work is very entertaining. Anyone else here been using him? I'd love to hear any thoughts...

    Driving Along

    I was just sorting some MP3's on my computer and stumbled across my old composition, Driving Along. Did I ever share this here before? Here's the link to listen/download: www.skkra.com/HostedFiles/Skkra-DrivingAlong.mp3 I made this a while back in a moment of boredom. I was sitting around...

    My wife's new fightstick

    My gal has been playing fighting games with me for 3-4 years now. She had always played fighting games and button-mashed with her friends, but never "seriously" learned how to play. I set out to change that. She started in on SF4, but was lukewarm on it until she discovered Sagat. That...

    Evo 2013 Shoutouts

    I don't know if I'm just missing it, but I haven't seen this thread made yet!... DanCock and RunwayMafia - awesome hanging with you two. Each of you guys gets my official seal of approval for your drinking ability. GGA 16 Bit - anyone who saw his matches on stage and didn't feel inspired by...

    TYM tips for a first-time homeowner?

    Goodbye, apartments… my wife and I recently bought our first house together here in Philadelphia. Plenty of space for the two of us, nice little backyard, large but unfinished basement. The house is in solid overall condition and has a brand new central HVAC system and water heater. It’s...

    Killer Frost's lunch

    I've clearly been browsing these forums too much lately. I get into the office this morning, and as I'm putting my lunch in the fridge, I see this... and instantly think, "Killer Frost brought her lunch today?"

    Good wired PS3 pad for Injustice?

    With Evo coming up, I'd like to pick up a new wired PS3 pad for Injustice. The current wired pad I have isn't comfortable for this game and I oddly don't like playing this game on stick. Has anyone tried an AGE pad? The d-pad doesn't look that great... the placement seems odd. I was hoping...

    Character crisis... help?

    Evo was the last time I really played MK9. I basically figured that I was too busy with life to keep up, but because of how awesome this community is and how goddamn fun this game is, I'm going to give it another shot. I feel like I'm in a mini character crisis. I've always loved and mained...

    EVO Top 8 prediction thread

    Evo is a mere few weeks away right now, but Skkra is several hours away from finishing this server rebuild here at the office. How can I kill some time? I thought it could be to post hypothetical Top 8’s for any Evo games that people follow. Top 8 should be in no particular order. You can...

    General/Other Lately I've been...

    I thought that maybe we here in the Ermac community could use a thread where we could consistently post our latest personal developments. I always get a LOT of insight from reading about the progress of other people. This could perhaps be a place where people can post on their development and...

    Skkra's Character Specialist Tournament

    THIS POST LAST UPDATED 5/7/2012 Hey everyone. I was hoping to have this completely fleshed out before making an announcement, but it looks like I'll have to make it early in attempting to get community feedback. I really love this game and community, and have been wanting to do as much as...

    Where should I hunt for Sheeva's damage?

    Hey all. I've had a huge interest in Sheeva for a long while now, as I love playing underestimated and underused characters. Sheeva has a ton of potential and I'd like to help unlock some of it. The guide in this forum is awesome, and along with the frame data, has given me a perfect base on...

    Surprised at the quality of online players

    I've recently really gotten into this game. Enough to start coming out to every tournament I can, and playing way less SF and MVC. I am shocked, however, at the general quality of the people who play this game online. I don't mean the online lag - I've actually had very good, playable...
