Title: Hadouken!
Post by: walrus on Wednesday, October 17, 2007, 11:09:21
Anyone heard of them?  If you haven't you bloody should have - get downloading they're awesome!  First band to release a CD (some mix tape jobbie) exclusively on USB....  How the fuck does that work?  Anyone bought one before?  Has kind of put me off tbh....  Call me old-fashioned but you can't beat a CD.   :|

who cares! how is a USB release useful? all computers have cd drives and i'm not aware that stereos have usb-ins. difference for the sake of it, and less useful.

besides, arent hadouken jumping on the "nu rave" (aarrrrghgh!) bandwagon. they certainly look like a right bunch of pansy, skinny jean-wearing, unnecessarily fluorescent-sporting twits from a picture i've seen. death to them.

i went to po na na a couple of weeks back and there were a gang of about 20 young students wearing nu rave outfits. they were looked down upon all night and none of them pulled. take note. this trend was always poo, but is now definitely over. wear it and you're automatically a cahnt.

god it irritates me.

Sounds a bit like me....   :D   I bought a pair of white skinny jeans yesterday....!

Nah you're right, personally people who define themselves as a particular genre piss me off.  I'm not moody/alternative enough to be nu-rave...  Besides, I listen to James Blunt  :D

The USB avenue is apparently one most bands will eventually take as a USB is more durable and cheaper to produce (though I thought CDs were dirt cheap to make?)...  Not a bad idea though, especially as it's only a mix tape and not their debut album.

blank CD's - £50 for about a fiver
Cheap USB - ?????

Its just a gimic. Like oxford says its shite because you cant play them on a stereo

Post by: oxford_fan on Wednesday, October 17, 2007, 13:06:00
you dont need to be moody to be nu rave, just a bandwagon jumping student tosser with more money than sense and a strong inclination to be in with a crowd with no substance or originality or reasoning behind it - being "whacky" for the sake of it. cahnts.

Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Wednesday, October 17, 2007, 14:05:13
Nu rave is just another meaningless genre name for a few bands that are vaguely similar and around at the same time, the NME has to jump on thse every now and then because it sells a few more magazines. As normal it doesn't really exist.

I will judge them on the music and I quite like Hadouken, they are named after the street fighter move by the way.

Street Fighter made its debut at the arcades in 1987, designed by Takashi Nishiyama and Hiroshi Matsumoto.[2] The player took control of a lone martial artist named Ryu, who competes in a worldwide martial arts tournament spanning five different countries (United States, Japan, China, England and Thailand) and ten opponents (two per country). The player could perform three basic types of punches and kicks (which varies between speed and strength) for a total six attack buttons and three special attacks (the Fireball, Rising Dragon Punch and Hurricane Kick; or the Hadōken, Shoryūken and Tatsumaki Senpūkyaku in Japanese) that could be performed only by executing specific motions

I used to love the whole FINISH HIM, shame you had to hit 45 buttons to actually do the finishing move which would end up in you bitch slapping him to his death.

Down, Forward-down, Forward + Punch.

Oh and the original Street Fighter really hasn't aged well. Sagat is a fucking cunt to beat at the end.


Title: Hadouken!
Post by: DV on Thursday, October 18, 2007, 19:29:27
sagat was the tall fucker, go for the legs....what I remember about the first game is that everyone up to sagat was pretty easy....then him and M.Bison were solid, esp Bison...

E.Honda was the best character to play as......

Fast Arm and flying headbuts all round.

Nah, once you get any good you can knock the flying headbuts out the air with most special. I think the pro's call it a low-priority move or something.

The fast arm is pretty poo as well.

It's all about the Ryu style characters. Him and Ken and Akuma, then a few others when they got onto the Alpha series.

In Street Fighter 2 and all it's super turbo incarnates he's a piece of piss to beat. In the original his fireballs suck you in if you try to jump/duck them so he's a cunt to beat.

From memory anyway, it's been a long time since I played it.

Ken is better if you get good. In the later games anyway. His Shoryuken kick arse.

he was a bitch to beat, he was so tall, so he'd do a low fire ball and you'd jump, but then he'd do one standing up which would hit you, then he'd do a low one again which would hit you in the way down.

Couldnt get out the way.

*looks for SNES*

There was a guy in the background at Guile's base that looked like he was continuously tossing himself off if I remember...

Guile was cool though, the Rory Fallon of Street Fighter...

Surely the Billy Turley of Street Fighter!

I'm sure I've beaten Bison with Dhalsim before, I quite liked him and forgave him his limited speed...

I was never on the playbox for too long to get any good at computer games so Dhalsim was never picked when I played. I went Blanka most times and jus stood in the corner being a permanent piece of electricity.

I did download Street Fighter II on my Wii virtual console and wasted days playing it.

It was ace.
