Last SG@Evo donation drive, Thursday Jan 31st!

So to get people’s saliva glands going about this elusive art book that’s being auctioned, here’s some snippets from an older version of it.

You can see some more pages here: http://www.parkablogs.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=233

That page is about an older book, but mentions there’s a newer one. I assume the one being auctioned is the more modern draft with more art.

I’m fairly obsessive about dredging up every scrap of SG art I can find and I’d never seen most of this stuff before, so that book is sounding extra delicious!
Get your wallets ready 'cause I’m coming for ya.

Don’t know if I should make a separate thread but I was at work all day. My first surprise…

I convinced Fanatiq to do a donation drive TOMORROW (Monday) starting at 12pm until 9pm and I will be down there. We will be doing auctions/raffles/giveaways/signings/maybe special guests… etc

He will learn how to play, be doing commentary on previous matches and I will be showing him my (secret) tactics about the game. So, if you want to also tune in tomorrow and help with donating, please do. This will be on www.twitch.tv/mrfanatiq at 12pm PST

Thats Great News, I heard he liked SG but put off trying to play the game seriously because of focus on Marvel and his Music. This could be great since His Channel is really popular and a Veteran at Donations. I’ll Stay tune

Really love his Piano work on Ken Theme

That is a fantastic surprise, one that leaves me breathless, gasping for my very life.

If I die, it will be because I’m happy.

cant wait to see the stream lets make SG get into Evo 13!

Wait, but doesn’t Fanatiq not have a PS3?

Someone could bring one? Danny is gonna be there as well

Oh shit this is sweet! I can’t wait to watch this tomorrow!

I figure that will happen for the stream. But, if he plans to compete seriously in the game in the near future, he’d need a PS3 since there’s been no more talk about the 360 patch.

Actually there has.

They managed to make a 6MB patch and are waiting to get the OK from MS before submitting it.

The 6MB patch is, or course, the retarded ass backwards way of “I’ll lock online mode with this obligatory title update so you will have to then download the actual 400MB patch as a free DLC in the store” that MS is so fond about.

Wait, Microsoft has done that before?

Dang I totally missed that. Good to know there’s a solution in sight.

See: MK9 Compatibility Pack Fiasco

The reason why PS3 users had to be also subjected to this bullshit is that the game was developed on 360.

OK so this is how it went down. Say you want to play as Skarlet, who was my main.

  1. Buy DLC.
  2. Install DLC.
  3. Go online.
  4. Realize that those who don’t have the DLC have to download a free compatibility pack from the store instead of being forced into a title update.
  5. Play others; realize they don’t have the pack so you can’t play as the character you paid for.
  6. Go to a King of the Hill room; realize that one of the 8 other people does not have the compatibility pack, so you cannot use the character you paid for.
  7. Try campaigning to beg people to go get the free costumes they attached to the packs instead of making them forced.
  8. Spend your life in training mode.
  9. Fail.
  10. Give up on MK9 and play Skullgirls.

To be fair, the 6MB version doesn’t let that happen. When the TU comes out, if we use that version, you won’t be able to play online unless you have the DLC.
Also this is off topic.

And we will love you for it.

Will you be at Fanatiq’s donation drive tomorrow?

I will be if Dan ever responds and tells me where he lives…::ahem::

AHEM.

ahem.

When is the donation drive supposed to end? I thought it was over on the 29th. Does it end with the month?
