Salamande are you the Astaroth player? Or do we now have like literally four Wills in the Columbia 3D scene…
What’s up guys, Internet access is not easy to come by here in Iida… supposedly there’s a chance they have wi-fi at the hotel we’re moving to in two days, but I’m not holding my breath. I haven’t played any fighting games since I left Tokyo a month ago, there’s no comp here in the boonies and I don’t have the money to travel. I’ve been all about karaoke instead, and studying like five hours a day.
Karaoke is actually sick Japanese reading practice, I can read like two or three times as fast as I could before I got here… except katakana is so rare in songs that I still stumble through that really slowly and get “shi” and “tsu” mixed up and that sort of thing.
I forget when SFIV comes out, but there is an arcade in town and my guess is if they get it people will come out of the woodwork so I’ll be playing that when it comes out no matter where I am.
Yosh didn’t I tell you I was going to be studying abroad here?
sup guys , this is julian, im officially on srk. it took me a while, but everytime i read these forums as a “guest” i feel kinda left out lol.
and yes i am down for some dr.
i just got back from the homeland and it was a nice trip. a town more industrialized than columbia. the phillipines is also home of the top 3 malls in the worlds. good malls = good arcades = tekken 6 action. i did ok but i got my ass kicked royally by zafina and the bound system. stuff is kinda marked up though, a dual shock 3 controller is 70 bucks. i also saw a white ps3, i wanna trade in my 60 gig so bad.
ttyl.
btw. i got some new shoes, and i got a pair of bapes, they are black and white. i could’ve got another pair must but the other colors were really funky.
Okay, so I’m down for some fights on Sunday, if anyone is interested. As stated, I’ve got a Calibur II cabinet, but I’ve also got SCIII, T5DR, VF5, GGX2#R, even Battle Fantasia if anyone wants to give that a try. I was joking about the beer payment earlier, but I would not be averse to donations.
PM me here or through YM for directions. I’m very easy to find.
mine are authentic because the gap between the star and tail should be small. the box is authentic and it came with the red foot soldier shoe bag. my shoes are the old ones and i bought it at a small store at the philippines, more or less 100 bucks. in new ones gaps are smallers to better rat out the fakes (fapes).
Actually as it so happens, starting in September I’m going to be spending eight months in Hikone in Shiga prefecture, which is what… forty minutes or something by train from Kyoto? I was already planning on spending a lot of time there and in Osaka. When did you live in Kyoto?
I was down there for a year around 2001. I worked for an English language place called GEOS. Good times, good times.
Kyoto and Osaka are great cities, for different reasons. Kyoto because it’s so historical (you can look down some streets and it’s like you’re looking through a portal back in time, like at Pontocho), and Osaka because it’s it’s so vibrant and fun, yet laid back. People don’t rush around quite as much as they do in Tokyo. It’s also got Den Den Town, which is like another Akihabara.
That was damn fun SilverDrgn85, we’ll definitely have to do that again sometime. I’ll have to pick up my own copy of Accent Core and practice my Order-Sol and Zappa - hope I wasn’t too scrubby! I’m also looking forward to trying Arcana Heart; I’ve heard good things about that one.
I’m shocked at how quickly you picked up Battle Fantasia and VF5. You’re already a terror with Pai!
