The Orlando Thread: CEO Tourney This Saturday 4-23-2011

FRXIV was an absolute blast. I scrubbed out in singles pools, but I don’t really care because I had an absolute blast in MvC3 teams. Nix did serious work for us, and I intend to bust ass on Marvel 3 to repay the favor and shoulder my own weight. We’re getting back on that stream next year and we’re gonna troll the HELL out of the stream monsters. Team Whatever WILL RETURN. :bgrin:

Seriously, for my first time ever on the stream of a major (at the, uh, first major I ever attended), I’m astounded by how far we all got. My brother and Nix both did well, but I’m pleasantly surprised that none of us, including myself, got R. Kelly’d by Marn.

Fuck downtown Atlanta for having like TWO fucking Peachtree Streets within a block of each other. But we got Gladys Knight’s without incident, so it’s all good.

So nice to be at an event where people actually play KOF…maybe I should float a setup at CEO and see what happens.

Marshall, we gotta play some KOF sometime, man. You said one of the characters you play is Nameless, and that suggests to me that you can actually play KOF. :bgrin:

See you guys at Barfights. I’ll see if I can’t come up with something new to show you before the weekend.

Ben I had no idea you were Latin American.

Really appreciate that man and I definitely enjoyed it as well, for some reason I actually enjoy fighting Sagat because to me it’s like a Chess Match that takes patience. Hopefully you and friends can attend CEO this summer and our paths can cross again, we’ll definitely play some casuals. Facebook me, just search my name Alex Jebailey

To Orlando guys, Man My sleep schedule/body is all sorts of messed up right now lol.

Hey Jebailey, is WolfKrone registering for CEO? He’s #1 in EVO seeding so far… no reason for him not to attend if he can afford it/get the time off. That kid is very fun to watch.

…and today is the day that PS3 owners who don’t have PSN+ can d/l MK9 demo.

@Ian

I am Mexican at heart. Growing up, I actually played a lot more KOF casually than I ever did Street Fighter. Somebody has to be the poor intrepid white guy trying to play KOF, and it might as well be me. And it’s not even that hard to learn; by the end I was actually getting matches on people who OCV’ed my ass the first time I sat down. I just gotta make this a regular thing so that my execution and my spacing knowledge stays sharp.

But seriously, Jazz, John, I’ll start hauling my 360 around so we can play 2k2 UM at a Jebailey game night or something. I wanna see what you guys can do in this game. Could really use some local training partners on call for next Final Round because netplay is so ass in 2k2 UM.

fixt!!!

…You take that BACK, motherfucker.

Nintendo 3DS - Official Website at Nintendo

Who’s gettin’ one???

I’m almost at a coin flip at this point… gotta do a lil’ more research first.

The Perspective angle is cool to show off the 3D but thats it. it leans on the gimmick side for that feature. and doing 3P or 3K almost requires the use of the touchscreen shortcuts. And im hearing the Dpad is shitty.

I’m not a 3ds hater. its just stuff I heard. launch is alil weak other than SF3D. I think I’ll save my money for the behemoth Sony NGP that will prolly cost $400.

I’m poor as hell but I’m looking at getting one for the Resident Evil Mercenaries game they’re making for it. Sure it’s RE5 Mercenaries with RE4 characters (so far…hopefully we get some more in there…I want to style on zombies as Ashley in the suit of armor…), but I love Mercenaries. I’ll back off if they announce a new Mercenaries game for big-boy consoles, though.

When Super Mario and Zelda come out for it I’ll definitely give it a 2nd look.

So check the front page, I wrote up an Article about CJ and it’s now UP on the front page of SRK :).

Mercenaries is one of the best bonus modes of the RE series. RE4 was prolly the best with it. Tho RE3 felt alil more tense cuz your got crazy bonus time for last second dodges/eavsion and headshots. Fuck! im bout to boot up the PS3. Sounds like fun right about now. Really curious to see how the 3DS game comes out.

I’m serious, if it wasnt for Capcom, this launch would be a serious dud. Unless your into playing Ocarina or Starfox 64 a 10th time but in 3d.

Awesome showing at FR guys, liked the article on the front page about CJ. Hope Barfights is awesome this weekend!

Just a headsup on 2 Things…

So to everyone attending CEO Barfights II at Devaney’s This Saturday I would like everyone to know that I will be donating 50% of the Venue fees collected will be donated to the Japan Earthquake Tsunami Victims. You can read this story for more info on how you can help out on your own if you can not attend CEO Barfights to donate- Shoryuken - Help Japanese Earthquake and Tsunami Victims

And also at CEO 2011 The King Of Chinatown Movie will be screened to everyone by the filmmakers in attendance.

Bens Mexican!?! And there’s no better than xi so bring your ps2 instead lol.

I’m getting a 3ds. Just got okamiden. Not bad. Kinda fun. More cute and story based but fun.( no homo)

When’s next casuals

2 new CEO avatars added to ALBUM if anyone is interested

(classic) **Scorpion **and Shuma Gorath (the ones currently in my AV)

You would think tournament organizers would know how to read a calender but apparently not. First Revelations schedules the same weekend as CEO, then ECT schedules the same weekend as MWC and now MLG schedules one of their events the same weekend as EVO. There should really be more communication between major tournament organizers.

Ok so heres the deal. Ill be in orlando thursday night. Anyone wanna get in on some mvc3 action while im down there?

yea bro im down for kof 98um or 2002um im good at it watch out :slight_smile:
