BATTLE AT THE BORDER QUICK ANNOUNCMENT - PLEASE READ!!!
Quick review of NE1LANCNTR and what to expect:
I finally got in after to the place after the renovation and I must say way the inside is very nice. Pretty sick if you ask me.
**SETUPS:**The setups of the 360s will be connected to a monitor by a Microsoft VGA HD AV Cable. Minus a few 360s that would not cooperate (already been fixed) the picture was very crisp and clean. I liked what I was seeing lag was very minimal and the few that did was mistakes on our part, wrong setting we will be testing them tonight so that does not happen tomorrow
**AUDIO:**There is a small catch but I don’t see it as a bother because as a very picky gamer who complains a lot I actually did not mind the new sound change. On each xbox 360 each setup will have 2 headphones set up connected to the xbox 360. Headphones you say? Yes headphones. These are top of the line Tritton headphones made specifically for games with digital audio fiber optic surround sound and multiple speakers in the headphones that go around the ear making the sound sound so fucking badass. They headphones are light wait and do not get in the way of play. Each headphones comes with its own private volume control. I actually am very impressed with the sound quality and must admit that I have never heard SF sound like that. I for one welcome this new change. First time seeing SF with headphones that I have seen and very awesome indeed. It’s like your own private zone. Great sound blockers as well. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO WHERE HEADPHONES----simply just crank the volume to full blast and you can still here the sound pretty damn clear. “FROM MY PERSONALL OPINION, I WAS SKEPTIC BUT THESE HEADPHONES REALLY DO NOT RENDER PLAY AND ARE VERY COMFORTABLE TO WHERE, THESE HEADPHONSE ARE THE FUCKING SHIT!!!”
http://www.trittontechnologies.com/ check them out they are the white ones
**SIZE OF PLACE:**The place will be cramped but very doable, to those of us who remember the good ol days of old arcade love like Stargate this will not be a problem for us hell I love it this way. The chairs you will be sitting in are very comfortable office chairs, u know the tall black ones. I actually started falling asleep in them yesterday for how comfortable they are. So to those who play using double chairs like I do, I apoligize ahead of time but there will be enough room to sit on the floor if you’d like.
Once registered and if you are not playing I encourage people to hang outside to free up a little bit of room. There is a huge speaker setup through out the whole place so calling matches will be very easy for us, we will also call them outside to those who are chillin outside.
DONT FORGET YOUR STICKS/CONTROLLERS:
XBOX360
DREAMCAST/PLAYSTATION2 (MUST OF US JUST USE THE CONVERTER)
SNES CONTROLLERS AND N64 CONTROLLERS ARE SUPPLIED.
DIRECTIONS:
No matter from which direction your coming from you have you will still be coming in from Highway 83 don’t matter what city you will be traveling from. Coming from both north and south you have to take the exit to 23rd in Mcallen.
North: More then likely you just passed through Rio Grande City and Mission, exit 23rd street in mcallen and drive down a little while and turn left under the overpass. Drive a good while down i’m serious you will be driving a good chunk. Drive all the way till you hit and pass NOLANA. PRIMROSE IS THE NEXT STREET COMING UP AND TURN TO YOUR RIGHT AND TAKE AN IMMEDIATE LEFT IN THE PLAZA YOU SEE, SIMPLY DRIVE DOWN AND YOU WILL SEE THE SIGN.
South: Coming from Harlingen/Brownsville side: Like north exit 23rd and drive down a bit past a few intersection, the stoplight has the 23rd sign handing from it. TURN RIGHT Drive a good while down i’m serious you will be driving a good chunk. Drive all the way till you hit and pass NOLANA. PRIMROSE IS THE NEXT STREET COMING UP AND TURN TO YOUR RIGHT AND TAKE AN IMMEDIATE LEFT IN THE PLAZA YOU SEE, SIMPLY DRIVE DOWN AND YOU WILL SEE THE SIGN.
TO THOSE TRAVELING DOWN HERE TONIGHT AND TOMORROW, BE CAREFUL AND HAVE A SAFE TRIP. SEE YOU TOMORROW!!!

Brawl In The Den INFO
Actually, soon after posting that I decided to just stick with doing it Sat afterall…I too thought enough is enough with the postpones. The only reason I postponed it twice was because the first time I hadn’t gotten a chance to do ANY advertisement for the original date I had set. I didn’t know someone had posted on SRK for me…I had kinda forgotten about this board; didn’t even know the CC thread was still here til someone came by the Den one Sat. and told me about it. The second time was just before said person told me that my tourny had already made it to the forums and peeps were excited about it. I had gotten so busy with work that I hadn’t had time to get all the info and flyer I needed for that date so I pushed it back just a little to after I hosted my Yu-Gi-Oh Halloween tournament. And that leaves us with tomorrow. The info:
So far I am set to run the following games…note that unfortunately I have only ONE copy of all games being run, so I will be running 2 games at a time on 2 separate TVs…:
SFIV (360)
Rules: NO Seth! NO Gouken! Best 2 of 3 w/90 sec. rounds. Prizes to 1st and 2nd. That may include a 3rd place if time permits.
DBZ Budoukai Tenkaichi 3 (PS2)
Rules: NO custom characters; that can makes things incredibly unfair. Best 2 of 3 w/90 sec. rounds. Prizes to 1st and 2nd. That may include a 3rd place if time permits.
Tekken 6 (360)
Rules: NO custom characters; that can makes things a bit unfair in some cases. Best 2 of 3 w/90 sec. rounds. Prizes to 1st and 2nd. That may include a 3rd place if time permits.
MvC2 (360) Sorry, it’s the only system that I have it on and I can’t get anyone else that DOES have it to bring theirs.
Rules: Best 2 of 3 w/90 sec. rounds. Prizes to 1st and 2nd. That may include a 3rd place if time permits.
BlazBLue (360) Same as with MvC2…
Rules: NO V-13/Nu! NO Infinites! (i.e. Infinite Ragna…) Best 2 of 3 w/90 sec. rounds. Prizes to 1st and 2nd. That may include a 3rd place if time permits.
SoulCalibur III (PS2)
Rules: NO custom characters; that can makes things a bit unfair in some cases. Best 2 of 3 w/90 sec. rounds. Prizes to 1st and 2nd. That may include a 3rd place if time permits.
**Smash Bros. Melee **(GC) I WANT to run a Brawl tourny, but I just couldn’t get my hands on a copy of it MYSELF. I have a few people offering to try and get a copy for me, but I can’t guarantee that it will be there. I do have someone offering to bring their GC and a copy of Melee though.
Rules: 3 lives, NO teams…for now…actually I will get back to you on the rules for Melee.
Since we will have a couple PS2s there, I have a few other fighters we can play if you would like and if time permits…they are:
King of Fighters 2006
King of Fighters XI
Neo Geo Battle Colosium
Tekken 5
and more…I think…I’m at work right now, so I’ll post others if there are more when I get home.
I wanna apologize to those of you that are interested in my tourny for all the pushbacks. It’s just that I have been trying to advertise it right so that we can get a lot of peeps and I wasn’t happy with the amount of advertisement that I WAS able to get on my own. Please keep in mind that this is my FIRST tourny of this kind that I am holding. I started my Yu-Gi-Oh ones like 2 years ago and now it is flourishing quite nicely if I may say so myself. So give me time…this won’t be the last tourny of this kind I hold. I plan to maybe do a Halo/CoD one later…peeps keep asking me to try to hold one, but I’ve been wanting to do a fighting game one for a few years now. In fact some of you may remember that I wanted to take over for Pozer when he left, but then I caught word of a lot of corruption going on in that scene so I decided to leave it alone and do my own thing when I was ready. I think that time has come for me to at LEAST try it. Later down the line, after the FPS one, I will try a football tourny (my bro has been asking me to do one for a few years now -.-’).
Well, that all I have for now…let me know what you guys think. I’ll check the board later tonight to see what’s up. Laters guys…
P.S. I won’t turn away anyone that may want to offer some advise or even help me out with this first one so that it runs smoothly ^.^’ cause I’m kinda playing this by ear. Also, if any of you want to bring your own controllers that would be highly recommended as I only have 2 for the 360 and 1 GOOD one for the PS2 -.-’
No Street Fighter III 3rd Strike?
can bring my ps3 so we can have sf4,mvc2 to have the tourney on it cuz not a lot of people have a 360 and most of the people i know usually play on ps3.
If you would I would appreciate that, thank you. We’ll talk more about it before the tourny. My name is Jason, btw.
Time should everyone head out there?
Oh hawt, tourny still goin down :rock: Been seriously craving some local SF4 comp.
what time does the tourney start btw
no gouken? no v-13? why this is corpus for god sakes and yes what time does this start
6:30…DO IT!!! I work
plz and ty
i hope it starts early so i get home and watch strikeforce fedor vs brett rogers
woot, im down for blaz too
Yes 6-6:30 is the start time. We’ll get everyone situated and figure out what to start up first. Sorry I can’t say more at the moment. It’s a little after 5AM…been trying to get the rest of the characters on some of the games so that all of them are available,and now I’m exhausted so I’ll see you guys tomorrow…
I will bring a dreamcast for marvel. 360 is a joke.
