Everyone's favourite Lil' Wayne was introducing a very impressive showcase of all the modes in SF6, and I have to admit, this looks like the most feature rich Street Fighter game, including a silly but fun looking open world mode and a real team battle mode, like Tekken. There is also a remix battle mode where the rules are changed, possibly a bit like the crazy modes in MK9. The best news of all was that there is a demo out now, which I'm immediately downloading.

I'm very curious about Marisa, the strong gladiator woman, and JP, the Saruman-looking old dude.

It's out June 2nd, I should probably preorder it on disc.

I played a bunch of matches with Ryu and Luke, getting used to the new rules. It seems relatively simple and straightforward.

Downloading open beta now, should make for a fun weekend.

The open beta is out now, and I have been playing for 5 hours since it was released. It's online matches only, so I'm getting used to the possibly demoralizing feeling of being destroyed by other online players. I feel like I'm doing OK though, especially with Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, and even Luke. I'm having trouble with executing moves with Guile, I never learned how to play Juri, and Kimberly and Jamie are still a mystery to me.

The open beta and the demo convinced me that SF6 plays extraordinarily well, sound design and animation ensures the combat feels impactful and cool, and the characters animate incredibly well with a lot of expressivity. I'm very much looking forward to playing some Arcade Mode with all the characters, less so the World Tour, which seems a bit half baked.

I got it delivered today, and I immediately jumped into Arcade Mode and played through Ryu's story. You choose to play 5 or 12 rounds, and I got to fight a truck, which was funny to me considering how much I've been trucking recently.

We just came home from a nice trip to Aarhus which included watching Chemical Brothers at Northside Festival, and me and Hellspawn joined up in the Battle Hub and fought with Discord chat. He's annoyingly good with Marisa and I was exhausted, but I still pulled out a few victories.

I finished the 10 ranking matches with Ryu, and then realized that ranking is per character, and I was close to finishing the 10 matches with Luke as well. Now they are both in Iron League, the lowest one.
- 14495Completed the game with Marisa (Arcade 12 rounds).
The greek Pankration bruiser Marisa is amazingly fun to play.

I screwed up and played too well with Marisa, and now I'm in Gold League, where I definitely don't belong.
