Weekly Screenshot: Best Job in the World

Whoever comes up with the best title will choose the other character for the next SF4 Biweekly TACV! As always, the rules are one entry per person and i’ll choose my favorite on Monday.

SFA3 V-R.Mika whiffs MK Shooting Peach as VC1 elapses, while time expires and X-Karin poses her victory animation as her servant runs out with a first aid kit.

    Credit/blame goes to omni again for the idea behind this screenshot. He wanted to see something involving Karin’s servant. I might try some more stuff with win poses later on. It’s too bad that “Time Over” sign lingers on the screen for so long.

    Apparently flickr has changed the way they store source files without bothering to document the update. The original image is no longer accessible by clicking the “All Sizes” icon on its individual flickr page. What was a 27KB PNG image is now a 101KB JPG. Hella efficient!

    This is the first screenshot processed under their new guidelines. Previously uploaded ones haven’t been altered. I’m not quite sure whether anyone cares, but if anyone does request the originals, i’ll have to think of another way to make them available.

    onreload: Haha now we’ll see who can get their minds out the gutter long enough to think of something clever. Hard Mode?

    “Time Over. Pay up.”

    To me it looks like Karin is charging her servant to ogle at R.Mika haha

    Well these were certainly, uh … colorful. I found “All grades of society” interesting but maybe too serious. Ring burn, Ultra III: Shameless, and Beach Peach Bitch were pretty cool too, but i figured Karin’s poor servant should get some attention for once.

    kaneka: Congratulations, you get to pick the character to be paired with Honda for the next SF4 TACV. Choose anyone you like except Ryu, Zangief, El Fuerte, Ken, Dhalsim, Rufus, Viper, Cammy, Abel, Rose, Gouken, Gen, Fei Long, Akuma, Bison, Sakura, and Vega.

    Maj, given that there are 25 characters in SFIV, would’nt it be easier to just list who they can pick instead of can’t :P

    Whoo! I thought Shameless had it :)

    I’d love to see some shenanigans with Blanka.

    Haha you might not be so certain after you see Vega’s combos. Some characters just don’t have much to work with. I’ve actually been looking forward to trying out Blanka, but he really doesn’t have too many ways to extend basic combos. And his super/ultra aren’t very versatile at all. I dunno though, maybe i can come up with a few cool-looking short combos.

    Hm, i just noticed this image is a JPG file instead of the original PNG that i uploaded. Looks like flickr changed their policies without bothering to let us know. I’ve updated the first comment with what little info i’ve uncovered.
