Okay, hello everyone, this is Quina B, or Percy. Uh, I play a few different 2D fighters, mostly Street Fighter and Smash, and a couple 3D in Tekken 5 and SCIII. Guess I’ll be around to see if anything happens?
What’s up Percy. This is Sluch. You can call me Mike if u want. Cincy has been kind of hoppin as of recently & there’s actually a fighting game scene that’s starting 2 take life here after a good 4-5 year drought.
I know peeps that play all the games u play (I personally am a Tekken player).
Sometime in January there will be a tourney in GameCity 360 in Newport on the Levee that the guys there that work @ GameCity, my good friend Josh, & myself will be running. It should be a lot of fun. It was the last time we had it, so keep ur eyes open 4 a tourney thread being posted 4 that soon.
Also, usually about once or twice every month or so, all the peeps that play fighting games here try 2 get together @ one of our places & have a good session of fighting games in. There will probably be one here on this weekend b4 Christmas rolls around, so stay in touch w/ this thread Percy & I’ll let u & everyone know what the plans are 4 a gaming session once all the details are figured out.
Catchya later. Peace. :china:
Well, if we’re getting together, my offer from the previous page still stands. Lemme know what the demand is if you start phoning folks…
DR Night @ Derrick’s Place
Alright. Another session of Tekken DR @ Derrick’s place.
We will be meeting @ Derrick’s place on Saturday December 22 between 11:00 - 11:30 p.m. that night. It’s a late start, but we’ll be playing all night 4 sure.
Anyone that is interested, let me know. My next post will have directions on how 2 get 2 Derrick’s place.
Hope 2 see everyone there. Peace. :china:
Directions 2 Derrick’s Place
The following info is how 2 get 2 Derrick’s (Legend 2’s) place:
Symmes Apartments & Townhouses: 513-863-3000
5109 Pleasant Ave # 905, Fairfield, OH 45014, US
Derrick’s Apartment number is #104.
I don’t know where most ppl live or where they are coming from, but these are the best directions for those of you who don’t live in or near Fairfield:
>Get onto either I-75 or I-71 into Ohio & drive up those highways until you get to exits that will put you onto I-275. You want to go I-275 West towards Indianapolis (If you’re on I-75, it’s exit 16 you wanna take, & if it’s I-71, it’s exit 17you wanna take).
>Go west I-275 until you get to Exit 36, which is the Hamilton Exit (It’ll be the next exit after Exit 39, the Cincinnati Mills Mall exit). You pass that & the next exit (Exit 36), will be the one you need to take. It’s on the right side.
>Once you get onto Exit 36, you’ll be on the Exit 36 off-ramp from I-275 & will lead you to a stop-light. At the stop-light, make a Right.
>From turning right @ the stop-light, you will be on Route 127 or Pleasant Ave. Keep going straight on that road for about 3 miles.
>This will lead you into Fairfield. You know you’re there b/c you run into a big commercial area w/ Kroger’s, Applebee’s, & all that kind of shit. Keep going straight for a lil bit until you see Patterson Drive (there’s a BP gas station on the left corner of Patterson Drive). Once you see Patterson Drive, take a left onto Patterson Drive.
>Derrick lives on or rather, off this street. His apartment complex is the second driveway in Symmes Town Square & Apartments, & he lives in Apt. #104.
These are the same directions I take. Hope this will help all of you out. The only thing I don’t like about Mapquest Directions is that it tells you it’s on Pleasant Ave, but doesn’t mention you have to turn onto Patterson in order to get to the apartment complex.
Hope this helps out. I’ll get on the computer 2maro b4 I go in2 work @ 2:00 in the afternoon & one more time b4 my friends & I leave b4 going 2 Derrick’s, so post up & let me know if ur interested, & I’ll answer any questions u might have.
Later everyone & hope 2 cya 2maro. Peace. :china:
I like the idea of meeting at GameCity next month, and maybe something at Gameworks if anyone also plays DDR…
Sluch, your place is pretty far out, and I don’t have a car, (yet…) so I’ll be missing that one. Sorry.
DR Session Rescheduled for 12/29/07
What’s up everyone. Just giving u guys a heads up that the DR session will be going on next Saturday instead of 2day. All details are essentially the same & it will be held @ Derrick’s place.
Quina: It’s all good bro. Besides, it’s not my house that we’re hosting the DR session @, it’s my friend Derrick’s apartment we’ll be going 2 4 this. Let me know what’s up & we can probably help ya out w/ a ride situation, just let us know bro.
Take it easy everyone. Peace. :china:
There gonna be 3S and/or ST goin’ down, even unofficially? ‘Cause if someone can bring a TV, I’ll bust out the ol’ 'box and we’ll get some of that played (SFAC for 3S, FBA-XXX for ST is my plan, as CPX3 is still a touch choppy, and well, let’s not get into AE’s differences).
Hey what’s up everyone. I just wanted 2 say good games & thanks 4 coming out 2 Derrick’s place this past Saturday 2 everyone that showed up there.
It was hella fun. We easily had somewhere between 15 - 20 peeps there playing some fighting games. That was awesome! Good shit 4 making it out 2 this guys.
I also just want everyone 2 know that me & Josh Q. will be having another tournament @ GameCity in Newport sometime in late January.
I’m gonna talk 2 the guys there 2maro 2 get everything finalized, & if all goes well, I’ll have a thread up 4 the tourney by the weekend. :tup:
Take it easy guys & have a good one. Peace. :china:
I am so there. Already posted in that thread.
We’ll see if I can’t start dominating in ST this time… >:3
Tiberious, Where in Ohio are you? I’m in Lexington, KY and have an ST cabinet. I’m always looking for people to play and depending on where in OH you are, its not too far of a drive.
I’ll probably try to see if I can get enough together to organize a tourney of some sort in the near future. I’ve got a PS2/PS3/DC and basically all the console fighters, as well as an ST arcade cart, and the cabinet is set up for MAME as well so Vsav and things like that are a possibility also
Lexington’s a bit of a distance… and for your question, well, pay attention tot he thread name. If you’re on the Ohio side of the river, should be obvious.
Another DR Session B4 The Winter Bashings @ David’s Place
That is correct. There’s going 2 be another Tekken 5 DR session b4 The Winter Bashings approaches. It’s gonna take place this Sunday Night, January 13 @ David’s place (David is Enter The Gecko on the forums here).

If u need directions, either type this in on Mapquest or GoogleMap, or just give me a call & I will helpya out.
Here’s the directions 2 David’s place:
>From wherever u start, drive till where u get onto I-75/I-71 in Kentucky
>From here, drive this highway until u reach Exit # 181, the Florence/Burlington/KY 18 exit
>Turn Right on KY 18/Burlington Pike (You’ll be heading west on KY 18)
>You’ll drive that for 2 miles, then you will make a left @ Oakbrook Drive
>Drive straight ahead on this road for abou 0.3 miles & it will become Oakbrook Road
>Shortly, after this, you’ll see a street called Ancient Oak Drive. Take a left onto this street
>Stay on this for about 0.1 miles & turn right to stay onto Ancient Oak Drive
>Drive another 0.1 miles & then take a left onto White Oak Drive
>This is David’s street. Find a place to park near Apt. building 6190. David’s Apt. # is #99.
We got some interest 4 this, & ppl will definately be there. Hope 2 cya there for some good games in DR. If u have any questions, just post up or PM me, & I’ll get back 2ya as soon as I can.
Later everyone. Peace. :china:
Hello everyone,
I will be moving to Cincinnati near the Tri-County Mall at the end of next week and I am wondering if there are any good fighting game events/places that are pretty decent. The games I play are Street Fighter, CvS2 and Guilty Gear. I will admit that I have been out of practice due to lack of time and an Xbox 360 joystick. I’m just hoping to use the extra time I will have to go out and meet people and get to know the area.
What’s up Anime12478 & welcome to Cincinnati.
You actually moved here @ a good time. There’s gonna be a tournament that myself & my friend Jbeene will be hosting.
It’s located @ GameCity 360 in Newport On The Levee. It’s right across the Ohio River from Cincinnati, located in Newport, KY.
It’ll be taking place on Saturday Jan 26. For more info, check out the link for the tourney:

It’s gonna be a lot of fun. The last tourney we had was awesome & if u want some good competition & wanna meet all the gamers around the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area, this will be the place 2 go & the time 2 meet all of us.
Hope 2 cya there bro. Feel free to post up here or on the thread that I sent a link 2ya for.
Take it easy man. Peace. :china:
Thanks for the info. Though, due to my scrubby status, I think the most I would probably do at this point is watch. I did get the Hori EX2 joystick for the 360 recently so I should be back in action shortly.
Cool. Let us know when u wanna play & we’ll get something set up. :tup:
Also, just wanna say good games 2 everybody that made it out 2 David’s place last night 4 some games. It was a lot of fun.
Take it easy everybody. Peace. :china:
Alright, folks… Winter Bashings is tomorrow (about 15 hours)!
Let’s bring it!
Hells Yeah!!! It’s on like Donkey Kong!!!
Hey, just to let you know, I did make it to the Winter Bash. While I did spend most of my time looking around the place, I did see some nice talent and some dedicated looking people. If you have any casual gatherings in the future, let me know and I might be able to come.
Do any of you play on Xbox live?
