SRK Lounge the Lunch Lady Zombies edition

Yeah but unlike most games now a days, kof actually takes execution.

Us mexicans just make that shit look easy

That Bar Rafaeli x Nerd/World’s Greatest Extra guy video…

I hope they paid her the equivalent of the entire middle east’s GDP for that commercial. The word going around is that it took 50 takes to get it right. She’s a trooper for not vomiting in the dude’s mouth during the kissing.

Yeah, but those combos are pretty damn hard to do, and by the time you usually have the meter and drive bar to do them, it’s the second or third round. Even so, they’re always a one-off. They either finish the last character (who is probably almost dead anyway), or they aren’t seen again for the rest of the match.

I accidentally thought you were there for some reason, since you kept mentioning “Fuck Dan Marino” and all. So this was just one of those indirect inside jokes from 2010 then, like the Rape Zone?

Games where characters don’t die in a single hit. A2, CvS2 and 3S.

I get hype for ST and some Tekken games to an extent, but not as much as those three.

Correct me if im wrong but dont you need a full meter or something to kill a character off in one hit in KOFXIII? It’s not like MvC2 or something

i love KOF13

What I dislike most about Marvel is that it’s one of those games where, if a combo starts, you might as well just put down the stick and watch the light show while you’re waiting for the end of the combo. Even if you develop a good understanding of the game mechanics and have good strategic sense, you still can’t compete with the kid who spends days upon days learning ridiculous strings of commands that go on forever. That shit ain’t fun.

I don’t mind Yngwie Malmsteen as much as some people do, but I would never pick him over Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Love Alpha 2. It does have some fucked-up stuff lurking in the engine, but it’s like having a conversation with your uncle who smokes a lot of pot, versus having a conversation with the weird guy on the bus who smokes a lot of meth.

Damn first Arcade Infinity croaked, now Super Arcade is on the verge of dying =/

R.I.P So Cal arcades.

To outright KILL a character you usually have to burn all your HD meter and several stocks. If they are around 60% health you can do HD activate>Neo Max which costs 2 stocks instead of 3 in HD mode.

Wait, you broke up with the girl? Already? :o

Condolences in regards to your cousin.

The ceiling tiles have nothing to do with Dan Marino, that was at the Flamingo buffet.
Dan Marino is something else entirely, although I believe it was the same year.

The amount of time where you don’t have control over your character in a Marvel game is really dumb. Nothing lasts as long as jumping light corner infinites that A3 has, though.

My only real beef with A2 are the really ambiguous jump-ins characters like Sakura and Gen have. Even if it looks like a crossup, it doesn’t even crossup the majority of the time.

thurst would you still hit it?

My first match in KOF Evo 12 was Xian, stone fray.

Evo is still a fighting game fans wet dream at the end of the day, but the impression to me when I say “GD doesn’t play fighters” is not that we don’t actually play fighters period. There’s tons of shit to do that EVO GD values more than fighters at Evo.

AF: Arcades are done in SoCal sadly, many predicted this a long time back though. Local scenes are still going strong (Torrance Don/etc), but people need to come out and support. I wanted to hit up Super WNF but instead I just go to the locals out here and now that school is back I won’t have time.

I get the sense that “GD doesn’t play fighters” is shorthand for “GD is for people who used to play fighters but didn’t go in for the shit that everybody else is playing nowadays”.

So I watched the announcement video for the new character for skullgirls…

and I am so glad I’m not part of that scene.

Yeah I knew it was the end when AI was forced to close. SA though…that place got me into Fightan Gamez again. Sad to see it go.

That’s one of those one-frame nigh-unblockable crossups from AE right there.

Yep, it’s the only thing that bugs me about A2. I go for an anti-air or a trade if I’m put into that situation every time.

What’s your PoE tag?

It’s StompsMcGee.

Plague Inc, stupid Moe was set to destroy humanity but I froze the game talking on my sorry ass phone.
