Shout outs to Tim and Subway meatball subs with Provolone
earls yeeah. anyway, we need to get some melty sessions in, if any of us plan on going to CT on the 17th.
man, i haven’t had a meatball sub in so long. when you guys walked in i could smell it and now i just want one so bad. i might get one this weekend if i pass a subway. i hear subway finally cleaned up it’s act and tessellates the cheese now too.
first dlc colors for bbcs are up, hazama has a straight joker colorway
saw the rest of the dlc colors too, that are apparently on the disc. most of them are lame, but everyone got a guilty gear color. jin got robot ky(and not the good black/pink one at that) and ragna got sol badguy, which is a badass color, i’ll probably use that one, and tager got a nice potemkin one. other than that there are some returning colors from ct and the rest are fucking lame.
some of the colors are cool. the potemkin tager sorta looks like super mario too. i like the gundam lambda and the quasi samus mu. the snippet of makoto gameplay looks somewhat promising. interesting mixup from a straightup brawler potentially.
evooooooooooooooooooo. just sayin. i won’t get to watch like… any of it. so i expect random texts informing me of the hype all weekend while I’m at the cape.
dragons is going to be hype this week. if anyone has an extra monitor they can bring that would be awesome, i want to try to get a set up for melty/other ps2 games, a blazblue set up, and atleast 2 street fighter ones, since i’m hoping the turnout will be much larger than normal due to evo hype and all.
evo was pretty awesome this year. gamerbee’s option selects were murdering people. and i was sooo sad when infiltration blew the U2 against ricky ortiz that he had been setting up for the entire time they played. I was just waiting for the teleport into U2 and… nothing. so sad. peeps in the stream were hating on sessler so hard but it’s pretty exciting that evo is gonna be aired on G4.
MvC3 is looking pretty sweet too though iron man still looks like he is wearing a latex condom for an outfit.
I didn’t do much this weekend, which worked out perfectly to watch almost every minute of the Evo stream (sad I know). I am hoping the results of the tournament finally put the tier talk to rest for a little bit. Say what you want about the “matchup” knowledge, at that level that means about as much as the difference between your favorite bottled water. Wong got owned because Gamerbee was playing his character better end of story. Same goes for Vangief knocking wong into losers. Character specialists ruled the day and the leader boards at EVO so the argument for character switching isn’t as strong anymore.
Hopefully Dragons will have the epic attendance we experienced a little more than a month ago, It has been steady which is nice to see. I’ll be there earlier this week. Anyone know what type of alienware monitors they used for EVO? Or even EVO’s past? Would like to get my hands on one. Could we hook up a console to my Dell monitor by chance?
Anyone know if Ping is back in town?
ping gets back today i think, he’ll probably go to dragons
CS will be also be attending dragons on thursday. I’ve got the late game again for kickball so I won’t be there until like 8:30. I also may hit up saltmines tomorrow night after my concert–riding that hype wave straight into the 27th.
do it, post evo mines sesh, i’m and hyped.
finally found a CS vid from the unofficial EVO tourney the community did. Only one I could find beside dacidpro getting astralled is the [media=youtube]vhO6Wdw-cPc"[/media]. I was wrong when i texted you, tim. I mistakenly thought HA was hazama but, yeah… he’s HZ. anyway, I may see you fellas tonight. so the top four were hakumen, ragna, bang, and carl. only two weeks left!
Oh the many loves of the NH community … “What the hell is Super Street Fighter 4?” hahaha
Lol. you know it. SSF4 is what brought us together. But we are all keeping at it in ssf4–I mean, did you seeeeee those crazy evo matches? I’m still down for upping my game and i’m trying to work on specific things and get a sub or two to fill in those rugged hawk matches (read: you though i’m not giving up on it).
But now that we are all together we also get to expose each other to different games. How else is NH gonna run Evo 2011 if we don’t play all the games? Also, how many of you guys are hitting up vernon, CT this weekend?
Whats going on in CT this weekend, let me know i might be down for a road trip !!!
Hitting up Souper Bowl Thursdays in Lowell twice a month starting next thursday (during draogn off weeks). And going to get out to GU in Framingham once a month, time to up the level gents. Let me know who is in for next week. Dragons thursday should be good.
we already know i’m in for whatever work permitting.
on a side note, i ordered my hori vewlix stick today, shits going to be hype. when you order yours lawrence we could have a makeshift vewlix cab haha
Just waiting on the underwriting to finish up on some of the deals I have this month and i’ll order it next week. I’ll have the viewlix by the time CS roles in. Fresh Tsubaki combos on the bew stick will be fun. That stick doesn’t seem to be one made to mod. Seems perfect right out of the box. We can set up my long table in front of the big screen and put them up there side by side and stand up playing like its the arcade!! looking forward to it. When are you and Rich headed to that import store in Manchester, I want to come!
OMG… i hate you both. I’m gonna have stick envy like a fricken freudian wet dream. I may straight up murder one of you for that beast and i just spent like $700 on speakers and a sub to finish my 5.1 system so i def can’t get that shit right now. And yeah, you don’t want to mod that thing. People are saying it isn’t easy to get art on there. switching buttons is crazy fast though. i mean, the damn thing opens right from the top! so good.
I should be at Dragons after kickball ends. looking forward to the matches, fellas. tell everybody and their mom to show the eff up. I could be down for some of the mass travel stuff. I’m off like… almost all of august so expect some calls for matches. I may take the 27th as a sick day too… just maybe.
