Columbia, MO 2008: We Post More Than We Play

Hey Aaron, I guess you’re going to crash at my place as well this weekend, since Andrew is cooped up with the death? Get at me.

when are Steve and Aaron getting in? We are playing some shit at my house fo-sho. Shekeib are u still in town? If so, u should come get in on some 3S action. Nick? u too.

Andrew - if your immune system was as strong as your GG game you would hit influenza with an unblockable knockdown w/ no wake-up options:wasted:. Hope you feel better soon.

you need to keep in mind that andrew likes bridget. so he’s going for that “feeble little boy” image by getting owned by influenza on purpose.

Now I think about it, I got out of fighters when I was about 22-23, and started playing World of Warcraft. :confused:

Why do I start these threads

I don’t have to put up with this

No Christmas card for Yosh this year

whens the games going down ? btw i need the new gg so any info on were i can get one or if anyone has a extra i can buy, hit me up

If game stop in the mall doesn’t have it then you might just go for ebay. half.com doesn’t have a copy either, i looked. Just check the shipping rates, and make sure NOT to buy the Japanese ver. If they don’t list the region, you can always tell by the cover art.

Good games to everyone this weekend. New computer runs like a dream, so big props go out to Travis!

Speaking of that, for some reason I’ve got no audio at all. Everything else works great, but I’ve got no audio devices listed in my hardware. There’s a PCI device that’s acting up apparently, but nothing else is giving me issues.

Good shit this weekend guys. PAUNCH.

It was great to see everybody this weekend. I don’t care what any of you say, MKII, UMK, and NGBC are all fun games :annoy::lol:

Also, hopefully I don’t fry Josh’s converter while trying to relearn Marvel.

Travis it was great having you. You must have enjoyed yourself because you gifted us with your towel :lol: Nah, man, j/k, but you know you’re always welcome at my place. I hope you’re feeling a little bit more positive about shit.

Also great to see Rob again. You need to come out more man, it was hella good times all around.

Aaron - Get service pack 2 installed, then using the motherboard disc (the one that says asus on it) install the realtek audio software, that should solve your audio issues. Good games this weekend.

Paul - Hah forgot about that damn thing. Thanks for the housing and hospitality. I had an awesome time other than splattering bambi, but monique’s pics will help me shittloads with that. You two are the best.

Josh and Andrew - Good games this weekend, glad you came out andrew, and thanks josh for letting us use your place to play some hot garbage xx.

Steve - Always good to chill with you bro, sorry we didn’t get to play. Come to FRXI and we’ll get some shit thrown down for sure.

Rob - Good to see you too bro, that dizzy looks fuckin tight. We’ll have to get some games in next time.

Josh, in case you haven’t seen this guy (vids of him are rare, I’m pretty sure he was regarded as the best Axl during #R though):

Reminds me a lot of your playstyle.

edit: I thought this was kinda neat, this is the current Arcadia ranking chart for Super Turbo apparently… Akuma is triple god tier, lol. Also check out who’s sitting up there with the traditional top four. No idea who they got to put the ranking together and how accurate it is/isn’t, though. I’m surprised dictator’s that low.

SSS Rank
Akuma

S Rank
Dhalsim, Claw, Chun-Li, Boxer, O.Sagat

A Rank
Ryu, Guile, O.Ken, DeeJay, Dictator, O.Hawk

B Rank
Ken, E.Honda, Fei-Long, Sagat

C Rank
Zangief, Cammy, Blanka, T.Hawk

Chun is top, old news. If you really think about it, she is THE BEST char. in the game based on match ups. She is the all around char. I bet Chun can hang w/ akuma? I’ve seen dictator ranked lower. O. Hawk is a surprise:wow:. I would put both in the B rank. Unless those listings are in order ie. Ryu > Guile? Then A & B rank make sense. Except Deejay would be before guile. Blanka > Cammy. and the whole S rank is fuct order-wise.

Travis - good seeing you again, good shit w/ Venom and Anji. Hope to play that chun next time.

Ron - Man u need to come down more often, handcuff yourself to Steve or some shit. Good shit in mvc2 and 3S. Your Dizzy is crazy.

Steve - Man I feel like we got cheated out of 3S play time. I’ll be contacting you about the sticks PM/call.

Aaron - Keep on truckin’

Paul - Castlevania II - playing through it again, giving it another look. Still won’t change the fact that Dracula is THE WORST FINAL BATTTLE OF ALL VIDEO GAMES EVER!!!:arazz: I think 70 - 100 bucks is a fair price for the MAS.

I’m pretty sure those rankings are in order from left to right, yeah.

And yeah, O. Hawk all the way up there is crazy.

I won’t disagree about Dracula, wow he’s the shittiest :lol: but yeah I’ll consider the MAS

also Josh and Andrew: do either of you know about these converters?

http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-14-71-h5-49-en.html

The reviews on the total control plus seem pretty favorable, but I still wonder …

I’ve got one of those, it works okay.

I’m pretty sure that SKILLZ(4-in-1) became total control, so those should be good. I wouldn’t buy that from play-asia though. It’s strange that they’re all the same price? One is just PS > DC while others have multi function. I remember those all being different prices on the site i bought mine from. WOW!!! shipping is 3 bucks!!!

Final edit: After reading the reviews I see why your apprehensive to buy one. It looks like the ONLY one to get is the TC PLUS. The others don’t map the shoulder buttons correctly for fighting games. The SKILLZ 4-in-1 does what I call “cross-mapping” ie. L1 = R2 and R1 = L2.

Hey paul if you want a good DC converter i’ve got one or two that work with my stick, so they should work fine with any mas and most sticks that have a ps2 for their pcb. If you can wait til we hook up next that is (FRXI hopefully).

Hey guys, good odds I’m gonna be in Pennsylvania tomorrow afternoon through Monday. Just thought I’d let you know.

Travis - How about you mail it to me? :bgrin:

Andrew - :confused: ok man, I hope it isn’t for anything serious

Josh - Are we ever getting our Gunthers W2s?

It’s for a puppet performance, so it’s gravely serious.
