Maritimes Thread 2011

It’s probably for the best this week. Most people are going to be off to that Dropkick concert tonight, anyhow.

Whoa, I thought I was the only person in Halifax who played fighting games, holy crap

There’s a pretty good scene in Halifax! I make the trip up there whenever there’s a tournament. Check out The Last Game Store (someone wanna hit him with an address) , a lot of players hang out there.

I was in a similar situation here in Saint John about 2 years ago. I didn’t think anyone else played fighting games around me, untill I met Adrian. Since then, I’ve met a bunch of players from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. So I really recommend you get out and check out your local scene.

278 Lacewood Dr in Clayton Park. The bus terminal is behind the store.

Just a heads up, there’s a small scene for every fighting game in Halifax, but you’ll find the most competition with AE.

Yeah i was looking and found that last game store, me and my cousin are gonna walk there on monday, i cant believe i lived so close to that place and had no idea

Haha, you’d be surprised! We’re always glad to get new people, though. =)

What games do you play, anyways? Just SF4?

finally back home from the trip, you all need to start saving money now.
Your all on notice. :wink2: feel free to ask about stuff

Looks like Dante is getting some move input changes in Ultimate, you now double tap the attack button instead of putting in the motions again, so his Acid Rain is now QCF+L,L instead of QCF+L, QCF+L. That’s pretty cool, it’ll change the timing of some of his combos up, but for the most part make them a little easier.


More pics of your truly being in there… shouts to tech talk!

Also,


Optic Blast!

Toshin at 1:12!

I was everywhere


Shouts to Gamespot/SDTekken/Namco :slight_smile: I was fliming that match upclose and let it rock
Also I uploaded all my photos to Capcom Unity if anyone wants to check em out

I see the salty shirt, haha. Looks like a wicked trip.

Toshin, what did your flights cost you?

650cdn ( 533 us) round trip, 1 stop each way was NJ/Newark got em on sale via continenial
then my hotel share was like 250 or so I usually budget around 1K+my visa as a backup each year so far its worked out fine. Sharing your room with a few people really does work out for everyone.

Hey Dice! It’s Nel. I need to check this thread more often!!!
