I was used to the game the 2nd day I had it. Everything is easy to pull off, from combos(especially) to Ultras. There are some strict combos though, but most of them are in the challenge mode and a lot of them are useless in a real match because of alternatives that do the same damage that are easier to pull off. I just zone with Akuma mostly with various FBs and Asura Warp, then I sometimes go on the offensive with demon flips. Demon flip can combo into a lot of shit, all of which take 40+% life. baiting SRKS/Ultras with dashes and spamming of light attacks, etc. Demon flip can combo into a lot of shit, all of which take 40+% life.
SFIV is just missing something. I don't know what it is, but something doesn't feel right.
My favorites are SSF2T, 3S, CVS2, Alpha 2.
