Do you have any links? I might actually just shell out for the $150 stick since it might come in handy. That or I could just grab that other X360 controller in your link. Any news on the d-pad performance?

are you trying to order the PS3 version? if so it is sold out online at both FS and BB, so you cant pre-order that way anymore. you will have to hit up the store first thing on the release date.

also check out EB and Walmart, you might be able to pre-order from them in person.

dude do you happen to have another one of those for sale? that dual unit looks awesome!!!

anyways there are two ways to do this... the risky and might not work way...

and the easy way... use a saturn > ps2 converter and then a ps2 > usb converter...

Here's the Xbox 360 version.

And here's the PS3 version.

So I got the game yesterday and played it for about 6 hours.

My first impression: it's just not as deep as 3rd Strike... and the Ultra Combo concept is like the ulimate equalizer...

how'd you get your hands on it so early? I thought it was set for release on feb 17th?

Also, anyone out there know someone who's reselling their TE fightstick? Should've pre-ordered but for some reason I forgot until I saw this thread.

No dude, I live in Asia... came out on the 12th. Stores were selling it on the 11th at night.

Joysticks for the 360 are sold out EVERYWHERE in Hong Kong... can't find one... unless you pay a premium for them

fuck I heard that the PS3 version has no AA, and only 640p during those super combo cut scenes, while the 360 version has 2aa and 720p all the way? Also my friends are telling me that the PS3 version takes 15secs to load w/o install, and 5 sec with install per game?

Is this true, if anyone managed to get a PS3 copy, is that a big deal?

I really dont want to play SF4 on 360 controller, but if the PS3 version is significantly worse than the 360 one, I will pay for a joystick +360

if i recall correctly the sfIV arcade cabinets don't have AA either, so I doubt the PS3 version will look worse than the actual arcade cabinets. Maybe not as buttery smooth as 2xAA would on the 360 but still i'm sure it's not exactly going to be bad enough to warrant getting it for the other system if you've already decided to get it for the ps3.

Also, I read that during the supers it does dynamically scale to 630p or what not, but I don't think that's a big issue either, I mean looking at the screen shots the game doesn't look particularly better or worse between systems.

http://streetfighterblog.blogspot.co...r-iv-vids.html

For me the motivating factors are, the ps3 controller, free online and well all my friends are getting it for the ps3 as well lol.


edit:

Also found out you can do this with the ps3easy custom in game sound track)
