Combos and moves are so frustrating !!!

[Babo]

Is it just me or it's just super hard to do combos and moves in Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter X Tekken ? It took me days to finish the tutorial, had to google for tips and watch a few videos to complete it. Now I'm doing Trial and stuck at the Trial where you have to do 3 crouch + Light kick, 1 crouch + Medium Kick and 1 crouch + Heavy Kick. I got either blocked or bounced back after the first kicks so the next kicks miss.

Also when I practice moves and combos in Tutorial and Trial with Show Input on, I notice how stupidly my X360 gamepad's analog works in this game. It's like every degree of the analog stick's movement has to match with a certain frame, otherwise it won't count, i'm not sure. How can you be so precise with an analog stick ??? Tried the D-pad and you know the D-pad of X360 gamepad is super dumb, it hurts my thumb :(( I haven't tried keyboard but isn't gamepad supposed to be better than keyboard anyway ?

And those were just Tutorial and Trial, I haven't even played with AI or Human yet. I like Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter X Tekken for the awesome animations and because we don't have many good Fighting games on PC. I want to really enjoy these games but everytime I try to play it's damn frustrating and makes me wonder how the hell people play these games and are even good at it. Really need some tips T.T

So why don't you play against human to even see what combos are useful or not. Me personally i never do trials in games rather practice cos u need to try things around and try your own stuff before walking into blind situations.

Most games i know u don't even need trials just cos it's there don't mean u have to use it.

Get a 360 fightpad or get a 360 fightstick if you have the money. Play arcade mode to see what character you like the best and then start fighting people.

Try a fightstick, but I'm not sure if that can help if you are struggling with tutorial.
