gamestop is exactly the same as eb games though, same policies, merchandising, pricing, etc.
oh yeah.... i pre-ordered sf4 from they at the $69 price and when i picked it up today they gave me $10 back without me asking for a price adjustment or anything. dude said that the price had dropped.

Mad Crapz strikes again! Maybe their "re-birth" didn't go as planned...
FYI, did u guys know that Hori makes a limited edition SF4 joystick? I think I saw it on their site. Anyways it's a nice alternative to the Mad Catz TE stick but it's way too expensive. I think after shipping, duty and all (coming from Japan) you are looking at about $250+.

i got into SF4 a bit last night but nothing serious, tonight i played through it a few times and holy shit the d-pad sucks balls. my timing is off, some combos/moves are hard as hell to do, and it hard to do the 3 button moves. im giving up on SF4 until i get my joystick tomorrow. Quote:

I thought they fixed it so you get a win anyways? You get more points if you win against a higher ranked player, and lose more points when you lose to a lower ranked player. I was 4-0 and then I got my ass handed to me like 5 times against Blanka  | |

heres the limited edition sf4 hrap3 (pn# hp3-52) and the "special addition" version of the hrap3 (pn# hp3-53). both of these are japan only releases. the hp3-52 is just a regular hrap3 with sf4 artwork, if you are lucky enough to find one expect to pay about $200. the hp3-53 is an hrap3 with the "special addition" of sanwa buttons, expect to pay about $250.   | |

I got so sick and tired of fighting Seth, I put it on easiest and 1 round just to unlock Akuma and Gouken. This SOB knocked me out with his throws and I had to restart | |
