GAMELORDS (San Diego)

seriously, the atmosphere is chill, the location is bomb, now if i could only get as good of a parking space next time i go…

Sorry I couldn’t play more w/ you guys in 3s. But once I got into Tekken I just stayed there.

GGs to Mark(NoAffinity), Gene, and two asian guys who I’ve seen play at GT before. I was the filipino guy w/ brown jacket.

Gg’s every one. I its a nice place and it would be better if it was $5.00. I’d be down for bi-weekly tournys.

Just to let you all know, I was the guy with the kurt coabin shirt playing 3s(urien), and getting beasted in cvs2 by gene.

and chris was the asian guy trying to do me in the head in the middle of a game…

Now that I got to meet a few of you I can put a name to a face. I guess Gamelords is the new place to chill. Word up on the 5 bucks … now if only someone had the power to lower gas prices…

NeREMIXED - It was fun getting to play your Ken. I guess you left for T5 I was wondering where you went.

HailandKill - Nice getting to play your style again. Show me some CVS2 sometime I totally suck at that game lol.

Those are the only two who I know on these boards although Im sure I met more of you just dont know your SRK screen names. Good games to everyone though hope to see you guys next saturday or whenever the next meet up time is.

Need more Guilty Gear love in San Diego :sad:

Sounds like a nice place and setup you guys got going, just too bad I’m such a scrub in T5 and 3s(and don’t have the drive to really learn em). If you guys ever start GGReload up though, I’ll fly down there in a heartbeat!

Even if not, I may come down for the hell of it sometime. I wouldn’t mind getting beasted on in some T5/3S :pleased:

But we’ll see…keep it up!

I was the guy with short hair and the Metroid shirt on… mostly watching people play Tekken.

I should find out Monday or Tuesday on the new price change(if any)… I pretty much told them if the price doesn’t go down to $5 we won’t see as many people showing up…

$5 for 6 hours is good…

Wow this is great hahaha. Thanks everyone for their appreciation for my skill! i worked for it pretty damn hard! Gamelords is a kickass place. The fact that they do a lot of shit for you is great. these guys are great! and 5 bucks? good shit. I hope to come there more. Nice chill out place, got 5 stations, Huge bigscreen TVs, Leather Couches, everything. GOOD.SHIT. but it still can’t replace GTA. =(

Markman - Cool man 5 bucks IS good. Thanks for that, i hope to go there again in the future sometime.

Josh - Hey man, thanks so much for the ride home!! Your stick is the shit. i love it. Light and looks fucking hot! Thanks for the comment on my skills, just practice up and get your consistancy down and you’ll be fine.

Tony - Thanks for the beasting comment. I wish i could’ve played more urien mirror matches with you more. Your Uriens got great skill man.

Ernesto - You’re funny as hell, all i can say man. Great guy too. Activate Super Armor -> Hyper Grav -> Assist -> Matrix Kick.

Mark - Good games to you! I wasn’t sure if that was you at first because i thought you had longer hair. as i got closer i thought it was you. You’re a super cool guy, hope to see you more! I’d be glad to help you in CVS2.

Marks Friend - I didnt recall your name sorry, but you were funny and cool. Hope to see you more as well!

Chris - Wish i could’ve played you more in 3s(did i even play you in 3s?) and Capcom Vs SNK 2. GGs if we had any? lol

Alex - Hey man, i think you were the official one that named me daigo? hahaha, get your stick modded into sanwa buttons and an oct gate, ill garauntee a difference. A Good one. Anywho, I hope to see you again, like i said to the past 10 people. Good shit.

Purrin - YES! GGRELOAD!!!..I dont even play this game. Where’s a good place to buy Guilty Gear Reload?? I want to learn this game with Eddie…BAS STYLE!

Next time, lets get some more Capcom VS SNK 2 people and more 3s people. and get a tourny going up!!! I need a HRAP like BAS.

sounds like it was a lot of fun on saturday. i wish i could have made it, but some stuff came up. hopefully i can make it this weekend, it will feel good to play against people with my own stick.

i thought you hated your stick. my friend got a happ comp stick and I can ptf better on that than yours ryan, i think you should get the loose one. That might work better?

Hey markman, could you ask them if they can hand out chairs to people who need them? They gave me a real nice chair. The stool/sofas arent good for me because the stool is too high and makes my stick slant downwards, and the sofas make me sink and and makes the stick slant towards man, the chair they gave me was straight and i liked it.

Wow sounds like gamelords is kickin off alright! Glad gamelords is still around. Thought that it got shut down for good, didnt know it moved. The location sounds great, I think I might wanna get in on this too!

MarkMan Hey I forgot to thank you for allowing me to bring #Reload to you guys tourney at the comic-con. I really appreciate it, though I honestly kinda feel bad cuz there was only like about a hand full of people who actually played #Reload, the extra station could have been used for another T5 setup. Im sure a lot more people would have preferred some warm up casuals b4 their matches. Also thanks in general to you and SDT (even though I only know about 3% of you guys) for continuing to support the fighting game community here at socal. (only if I decided to learn tekken instead of soul calibur oh well)

Purrin Hey thanks 2 u as well for hosting another upcoming tourney! Of course Ill be there (gimme sumadat beastly may n robo plz!) Me, KBalch, kevin, and wyze (all the guys from san diego) have been planning a casual meet, possibly before the 24th for some pretourney casuals, how bout joining us? I guess its still in the planning stages, so until kevin gets back, I guess things will stay up in the air. Ive been thinking tho, maybe we can start having casuals at gamelords or maybe if all the guys up north are willing to drive about an hour more south (I kno its already too long of a drive for them already so it might be too much to consider), we can prolly get a pretty strong guilty gear scene started here in socal!

Hail and Kill Im always down for some guilty gear or cvs2. Where in socal do u usually play? Im pretty horrible at cvs2 (my stick skillz suck and my Rock is scrubtacular) and Im only moderately decent at guilty gear, so yeah any places in SD you know of that have good guilty gear or cvs2 cabinets?

viren, Ervin? What’s up, thanks for the kind words, and I should thank you for bringing the XBOX/GGXX#R at Comic-Con… hope to see you at GameLords sometime in the future…

i dont play GGR can someone tell me where to buy it? and which version?? i have a ps2. I used to play at golden token but it has been closed. Maybe Nickel City. but now i think i want to go to gamelords more for some more cvs2 though.

Hey, I think I can answer your question. Everyone in SoCal plays Guilty Gear XX #Reload. There’s an Xbox version that was released in America, but then you’d need to find a PS2->Xbox converter, and there are usually input lag issues when you use one (unless you find a good Xbox stick I guess). Since you mentioned that you have a PS2, that’s good, because that’s the version most people use here. However, it wasn’t released in America. You’d need to obtain an import copy and either mod your PS2 or use Swap Magic to play the import version of #R.

You can find #R for PS2 at various online retailers, like www.ncsx.com and www.play-asia.com, but it looks like they’re both sold out right now. You can check Ebay, or maybe someone in the community can hook you up with a copy. You can get the Swap Magic and slide card from www.modchipstore.com.

Hope this helps! :smile:

damn it. thats not worth to get IMO because

XBOX: i dont want to buy an xbox, a converter, AND the game. thats like 200+ dollars.

and PS2: getting a modchip, finding someone to install it, getting the game. thats too much trouble.

Thanks a lot man. That DID help. Is it hard to learn? I want to learn eddie.

Actually, the Swap Magic is an easier solution if you don’t want to install a modchip. All you need to do is remove the front of your PS2. Specifically, the front of the disc tray where the PS2 logo is. To do that, you just need a small screwdriver. After that, you use a boot disc and this card-shaped tool to pull the tray out while the PS2 is running, and insert the import version of #R.

#R is kinda hard to learn at first. It’s much different than CVS2 and 3S. Sometimes, it can be intimidating to players who are trying to learn the game for the first time. I think that it becomes MUCH easier as you get accustomed to the engine though.

Eddie is a tough character to learn. You might need to spend some time in training mode learning his various unblockable setups and his mixups with the shadow. He’s way too good once you learn him though.

Or you can just find the PC version of GGXX#R and play using a PS to USB adapter. Just hope your computer can handle it.

Glad you guys had fun

For those that play a lil Tekken get some games in next time :tup:

you guys can test your skills against me. Im SDT’s #1 scrub :confused:

Spoke with the GL owners and tried to get the price lowered… unfortunately they did not want to lower the price from $7.00. But they did say that if anyone comes in after 9 PM that they’d be charged $4.00…

Hopefully $7.00 won’t be too bad for you guys. Lets try to think of ways we can make GL worth it…

I might not be at GL this weekend, are any of you planning on going?

LIES!!!

how about 6$ ?? why not 5$ ;-;.

Also is there a tourny this saturday for all 4 fighters? id be down for that, post up ppl!
