Soul Calibur Tournaments in OK - PS3, 360, or who cares?
« on: November 25, 2008, 12:48:08 pm »
So - we've got the issue of more 360's than ps3s in Tulsa, and OK in general.  However, the SC community backs ps3s for now...

...so - should we try and buck the trend? Does it matter to you anyway?


Thus the poll for a month.  Give feedback on what you think.  And if your a joystick user - make sure you vote accordingly, as well, good sticks are all we need!

PLEASE ONLY VOTE IF YOU GO TO AND/OR WOULD PLAY IN SC TOURNAMENTS :)
(AKA - please don't spam our results guys, if you don't play SC, please don't weigh in on this vote.)

I picked "didn't matter" but even I lean more towards the PS3 because of the placement of the D-Pad. Only the hardcore are going to have sticks with them so might as well have the best possible controller to compete with if this makes any sense.
GT: Eighty8keyes Haloez and anything else I might be playing.

Well - for the fighting scene - it seems we go more and more PS3...

the SC community - officially adopted the PS3 platform - can't do much.  HOWEVER - in the fighting game forums here you'll find a thread about a converter that has been reported to have no lag with 360 pad to PS3 use - so you Xbox fans can play using your setup.  Sticks - well sticks are on both.

the SF4 community seems to be goin the ps3 was as well - and while the xbl community will be bigger for online play in all likelyhood, the 'hardcore' will once again go playstation.

Tekken, etc - other fighters are PS3 based, or even exclusive.  So - for fighters - I think the decision has been made.  We just need to try and get in the game as much as we can - hopefully locals will look into those converters, and help us be more able to be flexible for those new to the tournament scene and local players.  I've already bitten the bullet and ordered a PS3 for SC regionals - so here we go.

(SPEAKING OF WHICH - Anyone with a ps3 / SC4 setup let me know - because we will need your help with hardware 3/14!!  Also, I want to try and throw a big SF4 tourny - and well, same thing lol.)

just a thought. i got soul cal on 360 about 2 months ago, and i've never played agenst vader, ever. so i couldn't fight agenst one, my suggestion is to hold a tournament with both systems, for those who prefer 360, or P3, gives a fair chance, idk what you'd do when you hit 360 vs p3 but i think it'd be more fair to us 360 players, i've been training hard and i don't want it all to be for nothing because i had to play on a new system instead of what i'm use to, and being that i have never fought vader, it would kill me if my wing and a prayer was shot down by the P3.

well tournament rules are held by someone greater than us OKGamers lol, i mean we're actually bending them by using 360, but characters are characters and if they're legal, they're legal

i understand, i'm not trying to complain,  but it's just that i'd like to make it far and see myself prosper in my soul cal training, but the P3 will kill any hope i have of that happening...

i just want see how much i've improved, i'm sure i'll do fine, and i'm trying not to stress too much,

i understand also the yoda's baned and vader isn't.... and i kinda blame the makers for that one, but i still find it a bit unfair to us 360 ppl....

i can't afford another system

Characters - you spend a bit of cash, and unlock Vader or Yoda - as they are both purchasable to fill the console exclusive spot.

Consoles - Xbox is out.  Sorry, OKgamers follows the NVGA standards and rules, and the NVGA follows the standards set forth by the games community.  If the community says it - we follow it.  That way when you travel outside of OK - you fight on the same grounds and rules as you did back at home - no adjustments.

Play on 360 pad?  Get the adapter that you can read about on multiple sites with a simple google search.

In the end - this discussion is WAYYY past done lol.  Sorry, but "Double console same game tournaments" are just about the definition of nightmare - I'm a ps3 player, your a 360 player, and we both make it to finals - what console do we play on?  Yea.

So - PS3 = standard, and we follow.  Thread closed.
