FADC into Ultra

Some of you may wonder what FADC into Ultra means. Basically FADC stands for focus-attack dash cancel, then you go into Ultra which is another form of the "Super" in the Street Fighter series. With the recent release of Street Fighter 4 on console in February, a relatively unheard of fighting game scene became more mainstream to the general gaming scene. I have sort of become obsessed with the game and just love watching good match videos. I also do play a lot too, I'm not that great at it though and don't play as much as I should to try to get better, but the game never gets old for me. If anyone wants to know more about the SF4 scene as well as the Fighting Game Community here are some links to help you out.
Shoryuken aka SRK
www.shoryuken.com - probably the best site with the most information, use the forums and wiki to learn more.
General SF4 Sites-
www.gootecks.com - owned by a SoCal Balrog player by the name of Ryan Guiterrez aka Gootecks, he updates the main page every so often with a Street Fighter podcast which is very helpful. There are also forums.
www.iplaywinner.com - a NorCal SF4 site, updates with tournament info and videos on youtube.
www.heartofbattle.com - a relatively new site with good content. They often post links to live streams and youtube videos. Great contests with free giveaways. I believe the site is run by someone in the New York (East Coast) community.
www.sf4answers.com - a neat little site which has a cool feature which shows SF4 tournaments on a world map. You can also submit questions about the game.
www.gytnews.com - awesome website for coverage on most SoCal SF4 events along with Madden events for those who are into that.
