If you're a big stream monster the weekly GAF thread is worth taking a look at

There are ways to play with a keyboard that actually aren't horrible. I actually prefer a HitBox-setup on a keyboard(that is, using Space as the Up-key) above a regular pad.
That, or a controller converter for a Xbox/PS3-pad doesn't cost much afaik.
I don't play that much SF4 myself though(prefer TTT2 and SFxT), and I'm fairly bad at it. I also get framedrops and stuff on PC. :V

My all time favorite Tekken3, playing it even now sometime on emolution for PC with friends
If you like T3 I think you will really like Tag2, it's easily the best fighter out at the moment.

There's also a very little amount of products you can sell to console gamers compared to PC gamers so CPU companies, RAM companies etc. want to get in on the act for some advertising to help boost sales of their enthusiast products.
I wonder how big starcraft would have been had Japanese games not been banned in Korea for such a long time (up until 2004) As well as very few western publishers releasing games officially in Korea.
Another interesting point is that Pro Gaming is considered gambling in Japan and hence illegal. Where there is a crazy competitive arcade scene yet it can't really go far because of financial reasons.
inb4 long ass irrelevant diatribe

how long has SF been around ? 20+ years?
25 year anniversary was recently.
The franchise you're accusing of dying were one of the big pioneers and innovators in fighting games, and then single-handedly revived the popularity of the genre back in 2009 with SF4(at which point fighting games really were dying)?
Can you go back to the other thread and be butthurt about dying games there instead? Nobody here's really all that interested in listening to you pulling dumb claims out of your ass.
