Seriously, there are absolutely zero 360 SSFIV players except myself?

David joined us but could not wait because the line was too long

It isn't just that, it was the fact that for the half an hour or so I was there the server closed their connection twice and so I got booted to the back of the line each time. I also get easily bored watching other people play for very long...would using the tournament feature alleviate these long waits? Maybe it would at least make watching the matches a little more interesting so you could follow the action in your bracket?

s1mplehumar and SplashChick said they play on 360 back in the beginning of the thread I think.

Fighters tend to always have the bigger community by far on the PS3. I'm not exactly sure why, but it seems that way with like every fighter to date. Probably has something to do with free online and the 4-way d-pad.

Anybody worth their salt has an arcade stick of some sorts, making the dpad argument irrelevant.

I have a stick, but don't use it for fighters. I'm using this via RemoteJoy:

Wasn't as much as an argument as it was an observation. I have a stick, but I'm usually too lazy to bust it out. Thankfully the DualShock controller has a solid d-pad I can always rely on. I don't like 8-way d-pads at all.

The PS3 and it's software library appeals to a certain demographic, just like the 360 and it's titles do. I think that's probably the most general reason for why the fighter community is so much more active on the PS3. I would assume there are way more FPS players in the 360 community for the same reason.

I'm shy a PS3, so the 360 is my only option atm. I know our time zones aren't exactly agreeable, and I usually play later (9 or 10-ish PM EST) but I'd be willing to be fairly flexible with earlier times to throw some hadoukens

What's good for you Splash?
