SSF2THD remix almost ready for submission

Some great news here folks, Chrsitan Svenson over at the capcom unity forums mentioned in one of his replies to questions from dedicated capcom fans (like me) that SSF2THD is almost done and ready for submission in the next few weeks.

Here is the exact quote: " I can't say when but the hope is to go into submission to Sony and MS in the next few weeks. The art is done. We've just had our last playtest with some of the balance changes with several Evo players. We're just doing animation cleanup, final gameplay tweaking, network finalization and bug fixing at this point."

Great news indeed, now if only we can have a relase date for the game, as well as a release date for SF4, and maybe a announcement of all the console version extra characters and stages, and also a look at all the anime cutscenes from the game, what extras will be inluded in the collector's edition and a cookie and some milk.

SF4 Infinite combo discovered!!!

Pretty much everybody hates infinites. for the newcomers to the fighting games scene, an infinite is a combo that takes all of the opponents life energy.

What is annoying about an infinite is the non ability for the adversary to break away from the combo.

According to internet gossips and this newly found video (through SRK), El fuerte appears to be the only character (so far) to have an infinite combo.

Rest assure though capcom will probably patch the issue since inifinite combos really mess up the competitive aspect of online gaming.
