Title: Vampire Saviour
Post by: Lennysaurus on March 08, 2007, 01:07:04 PM
Oi!!!!

We're all sick of playin the same old shit so i propose that we all pick up Vampire Saviour.  (One of the sequels to Darkstalkers)  We're prob all pretty shit at it so we'd all be at the same level.

Go learn it NOW!!! So I can pwn you with my mummy or my bigfoot... make you cry... and laugh at you!! MWAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!

P.S.  Im Lenny btw guys... Big Maori guy that hangs out with that big Maori that plays MVC2 (Kingpiccolo)

Welcome!

Hah, what a game to pick! I never really got into the VS series (although I did try a bit when they first got XORed for emulation). I think I liked that wolfman dude... Talbain?

To gamefaqs... :D

Vampire Saviour is incredible.

I never really liked the Darkstalkers series, until recently: I've been trying to collect a full set of MAME fighting games.
When I tried out Vampire Saviour, I fell in love with it instantly.




Felicia for the win. :D

Yeah, I looked around SRK for some stuff. They have a bit of info in the wiki, too. Downloading some match vids as we speak :D

Pretty sure I'll never actually play anyone at it, but I like to have as many games under my belt as possible just on the off chance!

Kaillera is your friend.

Although... a fast-paced game like this, with the lag you get on Kaillera... Hrm, could be interesting.

I really should look into learning MVC2. After the trouble I went to to get my hands on it, I never even play it.

My only argument against learning MvC2 these days are that it has gotten to a point where learning about all the complexities would be quite intimidating from a fresh start... it really would require quite a substantial time investment to learn all the various glitches and whatnot. Having said that, it is a damned fun game, as long as you have competition!

Post by: Coddfish on April 10, 2007, 04:19:26 PM
I have Darkstalkers for PSP, but I find it impossible to play. PSP's D-pad is HORRIBLE for fighting games. The least darkstalkers could do is let you use the analog stick, which isn't a whole lot better, but is still a step up.

Best fighting games on PSP is POWAH STONE. Because it doesn't get broken by the PSP's fighter-unfriendly controls.
Title: Re: Vampire Saviour
Post by: fluxcore on April 10, 2007, 07:13:44 PM
Power Stone 2 was so much fun on Dreamcast... 4 players... good times. Not a particularly good serious game though, since the winning strategy was to avoid all combat as much as possible at the start of the game, and then whore out the supers later on.

Title: Re: Vampire Saviour
Post by: Coddfish on April 11, 2007, 01:09:37 AM
I can imagine Power Stone to be a wonderful "party game". PSP, however, is not a party console. Gotta get a DC...

Power Stone might finally get my mates off their Bomber Man trip.

LOLZ all my mates are playin Bomberman as well but on their phones lol.

True about the PSP D-Pad f_cking up the commands in Darkstalkers. Does modding the PSP D-Pad help?. I've heard that its worked wonders for Tekken DR on PSP.

of course theres the easy option on PSP Darkstalkers, where pressing d/f = qcf or even better b,f = charge b,f lol

Power Stone eh guess I'll try that out.
Title: Re: Vampire Saviour
Post by: Coddfish on April 12, 2007, 05:29:45 PM
I don't like the easy option either, it makes it too easy to accidentally bust out a special when you don't want to.
I haven't modded my PSP (not the hardware, anyway ;) ) so I don't know if that would help.

As for Power Stone, its probably not really a solid fighting game, but tons of fun. It reminds of Super Smash Brothers, but with 3D movement, and terrain weapons. Like gun turrets on the airship level ;)

BTW Lenny:

http://www.shoryuken.com/wiki/index.php/Vampire_Savior_(Darkstalkers_3) (http://www.shoryuken.com/wiki/index.php/Vampire_Savior_(Darkstalkers_3))

"Also known as pushblocking, Tech Hitting is performed by inputting anywhere from 3 to 6+ attack inputs during block stun within a 12 frame window. It can only be done on the ground."

So basically mash buttons when you're blocking something. WTF!!!
