So any word on weather i can compete in the later rounds?
I think if you’ve been eliminated, you’re out. Zheng Lei was trying to get me to come back next week to increase my chances of making the cut (since a bunch of the shuang jing crew was there).
Not positive though.
So whose place can I crash for a few days before my flight out of Bei jing
Supppp childrennnn.
25th, mark it on the calenders and throw away the rest of the pages - I’m headin’ back chumssss.
when’re you leaving carmen? I’d be glad to hole you up
Word, I be coming in on the 26th leaving on the 30th We should play Tekken non stop day and night for those four days Also you’ll be happy to know that the wang player asks where you are every day lol
Grats man! I’m so hype now for the 7th! Glad to hear that’s going down.
Greece has been wonderful though I’ve been on the run non-stop. So many things to do and people to see with so very little time in my hands. I went to the beach a couple of times and it was amazing. Argh! Can’t believe I only have until Thursday. Oh well. Got some good news, I bought a decent video camera and I think it should be fine to do some recording of tourneys and casuals.
Raas, 25th has been marked down. I’ll be arriving the coming Friday early in the morning. I’m not sure about casuals this weekend but I’ll do my best.
Cheers to ya all
a few questions, the Beijing tourny you guys talking about, how much entry fee?
whats the prize? what games? single double elim? console or arcade? will north american PS2/ps3/tekken5 sticks and converter work on Chinese ps3?(cuz i know games dont work) and is there gonna be tourny or gathering happening in October? Is there a place to watch live NFL games?
reason im askin is i might go back to Beijing this oct, for about a month. no game and no NFL for a month make me a little something something… alittle crazy? :looney::wtf: dont mind if i do!!
sorry i didn’t get to meet you guys out there. beijing a cool city, look forward to coming back in the future. snk/kof comp is really good out there. stay solid guys! if any of you are ever in nyc feel free to hit me up as well.
Theres a LOT of tourneys here… which one are you referring to?
Accessories aren’t region encoded, I’m sure that goes for PS3s as well… not really sure.
Also, yea, you probably won’t be seeing NFL here lol. On the net maybe…
Hey I’ll be in NYC soon ^^
Booty - I’m really sorry I didn’t get to hang out. I’m usually a lot more available for people passing through. I hope you had fun in while you were through.
Family man - there are usually monthly/bi monthly arcade tournies. Either 1v1 or teams, depending on the mood that day. Single elim. They started doing console tourneys for super. Some are on PS3, so on xbox. Formats all vary, but none are exactly US style.
Accessories aren’t region coded. You could use a euro ps2 stick with a US converter on an Asian ps3. And yes, my stick/converter is North American, my PS3 is Hong Kong region.
As for NFL… not sure. I imagine some of the expat bars would cater to your interests. I’d try asking Lush at Wudaokou. If they can find you beer pong, NFL probably isn’t far behind. =p
RAAS/AKIBANA- do the placement tourney on the 31st! omg! There is also a tourney at xizhimen soon, I’ll find out the details.
all good starcade. enjoyed beijing. got some crab on a stick, i was happy.
and let me know carmen when you’re in town. go play some games.
31st eh? Just in time, super or vanilla? BTW starcade a thought occurs, I needs my sim card else communication becomes marginally harder than it is usually - wanna set up a time or somesuch?
It’s super. The finals will be too.
Sure thing, I’d hate for you to have to go back to smoke signals. You burned yourself horribly last time. When do you get back on Sunday? I can swing by anytime after 12:30.
Dude you still have a phone ? How can I contact you ?
Gents, I’m back and I bare gifts! Well one actually, my PS2. Starcade, I did my best but I couldn’t find PS1 controllers anywhere. Hope my PS2 controllers are good for modding.
I’m all fired up for the tourney bro! Problem is I dunno when I’ll be available for some games. Gotta get my ducks in a row. Btw, seems like chances are looking good for Rolento being a DLC character. You must be excited.
Booty - shame we didn’t get a chance to hang out. Glad you enjoyed Beijing. I’ll be sure to look you up if I’m ever in NY. Cheers!
family man - As far as I know there is no region lock for games or accessories for the PS3.
I’ma be in super early sunday, 6 AM or so - just drop in anytime after. I’ll probably take a nap or something before anyway so after 12:30 is good.
I’ll come by right after work then.
I went over to your place to meet you on SUNDAY AFTERNOON and Dick told me you get in tomorrow. When you get back we need to have a little talk about calculating time across time zones. =p
But yeah, your sim should be in your room on your computer. I asked Dick to put it there.
Welcome back bro!
first thing im gonna look for when i land in Beijing is:
GONNA TAKE YOU FOR A RIDE (with a Street Fighter condom)- Destructoid
