I immediately downloaded Carcassonne and my Tekken notes.
I’m down to plays some games on thursday night if other people are willing to come.
On another note, WE NEED MORE EVENTS! >.>
i will be playing tekken again today if people want to play
In case the world actually does end tomorrow. Its been a pleasure fellas! And if the world doesn’t end. We should celebrate with shots after da holidays
Happy hour isn’t panning out due to last minute shopping but lemme know if anyone still wants to grab some drinks.
I’m back.
I’m flying out late tonight; I’ll be back around the fifth. It’s looking like I’m gonna be going to APEX, so I’ll be counting on you guys to help me level up in Persona once I come back. Yannick and Gary, I’m looking at you guys when I say that.
:eek: Sounds good to me!
Nice; is it good?
Too tired to try it out tonight. Unboxing tomorrow.
Id totally come to a rochester tourney if mvc2 had some side action
It’s that time again! What time is it? It’s question time!
When people talk about a vortex character, what exactly does that mean? I’ve seen it in reference to SF4, although I may have also heard it mentioned when talking about a couple other games. I know I’ve heard it mentioned on stream a few times and I remember mostly what was going on, but never made the connection that it was a trait of a specific character or character archetype.
The term Vortex means having a bunch of different attack options after landing an untechable knockdown. For example, Akuma’s options include cross-up Hurricane Kicks, Jump Forward Kick, Demon Flips, Empty Jump-In, Throws, etc, anything to resume pressure on a waking up opponent that leaves them guessing.
And to add to matt. The situation is normally inescapable and must be defended (guess the mixup correctly) to escape.
:eek: Super Vortex Fighter IV: Unblockable Edition
Actually, I think that’s an unfair moniker, as only a few characters in that game have real vortexes. Still kinda silly, though.
So it’s like a character with a really strong oki game? Or is there a distinction between those two characterizations that I’m missing?
Side note: my flight from roc to Philly landed an hour late, so I missed my connection to Seattle. Now I’m an hour into a ten hour layover for a flight that I’m only on standby for; if i don’t get a seat, I guess I’m sleeping in the airport. And there’s no free wi fi for my laptop. Oh dear.
:eek: I guess “really strong” is one way to say it.
It’s called a vortex because the defending character is essentially thrown into a tornado of mixups; not only do they have to guess right to escape, but most good vortexes imply that they have to guess right several times in a row to truly get out and once they get knocked down, they’re right back in.
ROC flights have been kinda ass the last year or so regarding leaving and arriving, but that blows. I get the weather this morning didn’t help. Ten hour layover WTF…
Sorry, dude. Been there, but I’ve never been forced into standby. They should put you in a hotel for that. Airports not providing wifi is way too common. SMH
Crazy snow swirls this morning, hope that clears for last minute shoppings. TekTunes are reloaded. Games tonight… may have to be online.
