Samurai Shodown V

Just came out for XBox so I picked it up(fellow at Gamestop said it had been selling fast, they only had 1 copy left after mine). I'm not very impressed with it. Maybe I just need to get used to the extra buttons. I played the hell out of the earlier SS games on my MVS so I got used to Neo's 4 buttons. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out these extra buttons. And if you change the button setup to make more sense then the crappy default setup, the special moves still remain the same and are very awkward to pull off. I'm using an arcade joystick for this game as well, maybe I need to try the pad instead, but I really hate fighting games with pads. I took it online as well, nobody at all. For a fast selling game, I thought I would find some online matches. Nope, I started a match and it took 5 minutes to even find someone. Once we got connected, it felt a little lagged. Not Guilty Gear X2 bad, but it just didn't feel quite right. I dunno, maybe it was just me. I really don't understand why SNK can't put out decent ports. It seems like there's problems with every port they put out(or the game wasn't that great to begin with like SVC Chaos).

I was half-tempted to pick it up for NeoGeo since I believe it was the last game produced. I'll have to pick up the Xbox version to try it for myself.
