LOL @ this thread. I actually wanted to go to this tournament. I had JUST moved to VA, and I remember I got in contact with FoomyJin, but we never actually linked up, and SOVA SF died like a week after this tournament. :shake::shake:
EDIT- LOLOLOLOLOLOL @ Eric Lee “quitting” SF back in 2002… and still trying in 2009. WE DON’T BELIEVE YOU!!!
Again this was not og GT…that was last year of gt…wen GT was not that hot…

No defence/Magneto Maniac this was before ur time at GT…

Also Jwong win streak in MVC2 started at GT…ended 4 years later…lol more history!!
PS…Ill never forget Valle flying out to GT demanding to watch Darrick play Mega Man in MVC1…Darrick was a gaming genius!!! Oh and Valle and Darrick played for the National Title in Tkkn Tag…I believe Darrick was 14…anyways its all history now…but I will always remember!!!
And dont sleep on Estuardo(Tommy Kid)…EVER!!! Shinshay and Khang know bout that!!
I found this footage of me playing Will Martin (best MD mvc2 player at the time)after he claimed he could beat VA in MVC2…lol I miss Will…cool guy…but the person yelling is Estuardo…lol EPic!!

that korean guy fucced up my tekken match:rofl: i should of gotten 5th but his wife went bananas an so did he… threw me all off
damn i miss them times… an yeah blt still has a ransom out on his head…
Just to clear things up, I may have not been chilling with everyone or into the scene at all, but I first started playing at GT when I was 9. I don’t consider myself an OG at GT or any of that, but I do remember how much I leveled up once I entered that place and was taken under wing by Victor and Eric V.
EricV: You forgot me on that list, granted I wasn’t that good. :lol:
Also, why can’t I remember the crazy korean guy? What was he doing prior to going crazy? And no one could see my in Crazy Hoops. ANd yes, I miss Will too. :sad:
omg i remember that!!! or vaguely remember that. i remember shouting but i was back watching cvs. omg. lol.
i remember gimpy and his goofy hoops.
i remember the only time i ever played marvel was against will martin. he raped me with magneto and i never touched that game again there.
i remember meeting new heads. just not that many. i was pretty quiet back then.
i remember my first “big” win in cvs2 was against jody in the first round. and everyone sayin “that”(not knowing who i was/being an uber scrub) guy, beat jody. i remember it well.
i have so many memories. its not that long ago i guess but 6 years is a long time to not have an arcade.
i can honestly say i wouldnt be as gdlk as i am now with out gametime during my scrubby ass days. this place made me hungry for wins. god i miss arcades. r.i.p. gametime.
And as you can see I was really hungry in those days. Top 4 in almost every game. I played.
LOL, I have been trying to quit for a min now, but I can assure you guys that it’s coming soon. I hardly come now. I’m getting married. Khang and Dave are going to be in my wedding. What a great way to keep the GT movement going.
I vaguely remember that. Did it involve one of the Big Bite delivery guys? ANd I’m also suprise no one brought up the MVC2 player who had the spit cup.
