Like so many magic players wanna theoryfight for days about how their K'rikk or Partner deck would stomp every other commander but sitting down and playing a game of Magic: The Gathering ™️?

If we're talking exclusively PS2 and extremely well known and culturally significant fighting games that aren't wack ports then a few titles immediately come to mind that need this way more than PS2 3s

And if we ignore the popular ones then there's a laundry list of FGs trapped on PCSX2

Gyaru🦌retro deer @gyarugarou.bsky.social · 19d

There is zero reason for that when 3S is readily and easily available, has had multiple releases with online matchmaking, and any other PS1/PS2 FG lacking the extensive community support 3S has 100% needs a decomp more

This project screams its for casual audiences not preservation or for the FGC

CPS3 is niche hardware to work with but resources have def existed for a while now and has a pretty active community, while PS1/PS2 decomp tools are def more streamlined tho but that still would not be the original source code at all

Source Code of the not so legendary PS2 port not the actual CPS3 version

No one made a 3rd 4trike yet tho

Gyaru🦌retro deer @gyarugarou.bsky.social · 20d

I found out why

Gyaru🦌retro deer @gyarugarou.bsky.social · 20d

Good port but no reason to play in 2025 because its stuck on old hardware

Its definitely not helmed by someone that plays a lot of fighting games

Anyone that knows old heads would not dare to type the words "Improve and Expand upon the game" or "add modern mode"

Gyaru🦌retro deer @gyarugarou.bsky.social · 20d

I worded that like an idiot, I meant to say the PS2 decomp's goal is to eventually add modern mode the slippi one is just slippi but for 3s without Fightcade 🙃

I remember this and I'm pretty sure I remember meeting one of the guys behind this at specifically an anime convention lmao

Gyaru🦌retro deer @gyarugarou.bsky.social · 20d

After reading up more on it and seeing talks of "improving and expanding the gameplay" and "rebalancing the roster"

yeah this is definitely a project for the casual audience by people that aren't really fighting game or 3s heads

Gyaru🦌retro deer @gyarugarou.bsky.social · 20d

I am also just finding out someone else is doing the exact thing this project is aiming to do but with a Slippi-esque client for 3rd Strike while this projects goal is to eventually quote "add a separate "modern" mode with a completely different balance"

But why decomp the PS2 version and attempt to retrofit it into the arcade version then 😭
