i assume you mean akuma and gouken.

set it to 1 round on very easy. make sure you get the first 2 wins as perfect. that alone should give you akuma. dont think you need to get the ultra combos in. just dont lose.

when you have it set on more than 1 round. you cant lose a ROUND. not the whole match, but cant lose a single round in it.

Re: Street Fighter IV
 

You need one perfect round and one ultra combo finish in order to get Akuma. To get the next guy, you need to beat the game WITH AKUMA and have two perfect rounds and THREE ultra combo finishes. I'm not sure if you need to beat it with Akuma and then you can beat it under those conditions with anyone or if Akuma is a must. Judging by Akuma's storyline, I would assume it is Akuma.

Re: Street Fighter IV
 

you dont need any ultras to get akuma... at least, i didnt have any, nor any supers for that matter. the info on gamefaqs when i read it was wrong, i did it the way they wanted and i had gotten nothing. it wasnt untill i did the very first 2 rounds as perfect that i got akuma. didnt do any supers or ultras.

gouken on the other hand... i did the first 3 as perfect then did as many ultras and supers as i could the remaining matches.

As some of you may or may not know, I'm hardcore into fighters and travel extensively to play them. Guilty Gear mostly, but I play other games.

*Steps onto Professor Podium*

SFIV:

1. Sagat is broken. Really. He has the best ultra in the game and the easiest to combo into. You can juggle it from EX TigerUpper.

2. The Console characters are all really bad save for Sakura and Rose. Seth the boss character is actually terrible and will probably be tournament legal. Nothing broken has been discovered as of yet.

3. Chun Li is awesome. 2 Low shorts, EX Legs, EX Bird Kick, Ultra. You are done. Just throwing that in there.

4. Ken is the worst Shoto in the game. Ryu and Gouki are much better.

5. I could do things to you guys in this game that would make your eyeballs bleed.

6. It is a very good street fighter, though I feel 3rd strike had much more depth and was a lot harder.

7. Dhalsim is sweet in SFIV.

8. Please switch to playing on a stick if you want to get serious at fighting games.

9. Guilty Gear is infinitely sweeter than SFIV.

Best reason I've heard to play this game.

Re: Street Fighter IV
 

Combo from a TK Teleport into j.fierce yoga flame is sweet. His ultra creates a force guard setup from close range on wakeup which is something street fighter has never done before. OMG Dhalsim go. He's still bad in this game technically.

Re: Street Fighter IV
 

I can't tell if you like the game or not. You seem to be bouncing back and forth to how good or bad characters are.

I remember playing Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 and there tons of characters who were over balanced (Iron Man, Cable...) and some stupidly nerfed (Wolverine... roll...).

That's part of the game, I guess.

Re: Street Fighter IV
 

So.... this thread is really old but.... I finally went and got this (no fighting stick yet though) If you guys got this and still play please go ahead and add me on XBL.

my gamer tag which is not showing on my sig for some reason is Strider Zen

SFIV was on sale for $19.99 (new, both PS3 and 360) yesterday at EBgames...
I almost bought it, but I didn't.

Just thought I'd let anybody else who was on the fence about the purchase know that they should be kicking themselves about now...
