That is a very interesting point, and one that has crossed my mind a couple of times as the cause of not recognizing disks.
But it wouldn't matter if it was in a different power point, if it is still on the same circuit in your house.
I give this a low chance, but could be a possibility. I have a lot of stuff coming off the power point my boX is plugged into. Still - The xbox support have never mentioned anything like this.

Note that those three characters are the most scrub-friendly bunch of crap-house fighters EVER to be put in a fighting game. Oh, and where is Vega?

Charge back, forward + Punch. Repeat....

Takes a lot of skill

The skill is in defeating them. No character and no player is cheap if you're good enough to beat them.

It's cheap if you're exploiting an imbalance in the game!!

Like how you use Hamarou? , and still cant win? Every character has their weakness, only good fighters can exploit that. The only way you can really be cheap in Cap Vs SNK is to put the super bar on full all the time... and keep throwing out special supers...

I think you should charge up your super bar from zero.. thats the way the game is meant to be played.

We should start a new thread about this, we just killed this one..

Or you could actually use characters that take skill to use and have capabilities to use combo arts in the game.
Of all the fighting games available today, Capcom titles are the most unbalanced by far. Guile alone is a dog of a character because he can simply sit there and charge his attack moves (which are anti air and ground attacks). Someone with reasonable skill who used Guile would never lose.

Still, if you play these games to be a dog then that's fine. It just means that you never really attain any real enjoyment out of them.

When do you get these "flickeries" Mauii? I have heard of a "white dots" problem when the US xbox first came out that was caused by faulty xboxes.

Oh, and here is a picture of Sonic ownzoring @ C vs SNK 2

Excuses, Excuses, Excuses... Sounds like a whinge to me

I dont know what planet you come from but Guile and Blanka are not dog characters.... You are only saying this because they frustrate you and you cant get the knack of how to beat them...

Blanka, Guile and Bison were the first 3 characters I leanrt to use on SF eons ago and therefore my strongest characters since I have perfected their style.. They are what have given me the most enjoyment out of the Street Fighter series... To call these guys dog characters or cheap just goes to show how bad you must be playing with or against them... or you just dont have respect for the capcom fighters.. they are IMO classic characters that believe it or not do require skill. Skill that some people obviously dont have

Who ownz Geeseman? Blanka Does.. Yeah Baby!!
