Central PA thread (Harrisburg,York,Lancaster,other centralish areas)

what up pawn080 glad 2 have you here in pa im free 2 play this sat and sunday let me know whats good

Yeah I’m right across from Galleria mall in the Hampton Inn. I went there 3 night and was the only person there besides a DDR player. Lol.

I’m going back to jersey for the weekend but ill be back in town Monday night.
Let me know if anything is goin on. Would be cool to just get a casual night while I’m here.

Hey guys, I know any of the areas here would be in for a long drive to get here, but on the 27th, Pittsburgh is having its monthly and I was wondering if any of you guys would be interested, we play AE, Marvel, KOF (Including Season’s Beatings t-12 TJ), P4 and Tekken. Venue fee is $3, which is waived if you bring a set up, and each game is $5, we usually draw around 12-15 people per game, but we’ve got Erie coming down so that should drive the number be between 15-20 for AE and round 12-15 for everything else. I’m also trying to get State College and some of Cleveland in the fold. It’s in the CMU University Center, registration starts at 7:30, games will start at 8. It will likely be in the Danforth Room.

I want 2 go to this I could not find a thread

This area seems pretty dead as far as tournaments/events/casuals go. Anyone know of any near the York/Harrisburg/Lancaster area?

I play Marvel casuals with a friend now and then, at least once a week. We both go to school at Millersville.

I live in lancaster and play SF4AE2012 Competitively. I WOULD LOVE to find locals that play as well so I can get some offline play without having to travel 1 hour and 40 mins where I normally play. Please PM me (I dont check SRK often) so contact me on xbox GT: octdave

Carlisle here looking for people to play sfxt and sf4 with I’m super rusty but I was once considered tournament level in sf4

I noticed the Shrewsbury Gamestop sold their copies of Street Fighter Anniversary Collection and CvS2. Which one of you lucky souls grabbed them? York needs a Third Strike scene ASAP.

I had no idea that the Galleria Mall had any fighters in it. I don’t know why more local bars don’t get cabinets like these in. Kind of sad. I remember Jo-Jos in Hummelstown used to have some great games on there.

Anyway… Anyone know of anything happening in York. Local here.

You can find MvC2, SNK vs Capcom, and Tekken machines scattered around, such as in West Manchester Mall, the Galleria, and the Queens St. bowling alley, but they tend to be broken (unresponsive buttons).

Comic Store West wants nothing to do with fighting game events, sadly. York College might allow a student to organize an event, but all events must be approved and planned with the administrators.

That is sad really… broken. I know about the Comic Store West. I was in talks with the owner for about a month getting some fighting game event with UMvC3 and SF4, but that fizzled out and I assumed he wasn’t interested. Mostly that idea of how to get people to sign up if they couldn’t win anything (illegal in PA apparently).

I used to work at YCP. They do allow students to organize, and they did have a Team Fortress 2 tourney at one point. I think the hardest part would be getting people in who are not YCP students and time constraints.

I thin until we can find a centrally located area that will allow us to have a meet we are doomed to drive to MD or Philly.

We could try Planet X Comic, supposedly they already have an “Xbox lounge”.

I just looked up Planet X Comic on Google Maps; I never knew that place existed. It’s in a good location near the theaters, grocery stores and the highway. I’ll have to stop by there when I’m near and see if they have regular gaming sessions. Even if we organized casual sessions rather than tournaments, we could draw people on Friday night or the weekend.

Yeah sounds good. Lets work toward this, I am down/// if theres any SF4AE comp around locally im so down (lancaster-york). Otherwise im driving to maryland. they have a good scene.

I think we would have to start small like that. Just get a few people together for casuals. I think there is a PA law against money winnings in a tournament, think it is viewed as illegal gambling? (WTF)

I live near by Planet X Comics. I can swing by when I get a chance, which doesn’t happen very often if at all. Baby, Wife, Work
