the UK fighting game scene

This post might be coming out of left field, but all you guys shouldn’t be hating on the flame war. “This thread is crap, you’re killing the thread, blah blah”, BULLSHIT.
Arguments between players like this keeps the scene active and interesting. Everyone wants to know the outcome, who won the challenges, and whether people could back their shit talking. If it wasn’t for Jblaze/Chunkis/SrWilson/KoFN, this thread would be dead, or near dead.
And SRWilson makes my head hurt. His posts show no indication of him gaining an education above basic english. I thought the English were supposed to be GOOD at English.
His logic is amazing. He talks mad shit, shows up to some real comp, gets his ass handed to him, and apparently he needs a “medal” for sucking shit. This guy’s been a laughing stock for a few years, and it seems nothing’s changed.
He may not have been playing at his full potential, but damn, no need to act like an arrogant bastard. And “not being used to a sticks” is not an excuse, if you’re a good player, you’ll adapt.
This post might have been a little late, but damn, it had to be said. (or re-said).

Hey I live in Newmarket. What are my options in terms of games and location? I’m mostly a SC2 player, I’m pretty scrubby-to-intermediate with anything else.

This is a common misconception :party: :party:

Desci canadian What are you talking about? I never got my ass handed to me at all. I won more games overall I just didn’t win as much as I liked because I was not used to the button set out and the stick on the side I was playing was ragged end of story.

Also looks whos claiming I did - 1 person whos biggest shit talker of UK sf players and J blaze who was NOT EVEN THERE.
Need I say more. I can’t stand liars.

And the vicious cycle continues… If only it was entertaining hate, like most other threads are.

246 posts later, the argument is still on square one…

Is it ever going to pass square one?

It would pass if people would let it drop… And I did not have to keep defending myself from these malicious lies.

hey taito i live in cambridge, but there is no scene here. i don’t play sc2.

i dont understand why peeps love to hate, why not get turned on with this message. you have to turn up the volume though because you can hardly hear paris hilton talking. wow wow.

enjoy :clap:

What about tournaments/ranking battles at Angel Vegas? Somebody said the manager seemed willing?

There’s one in Picadilly in Manchester, although it’s out of comission as much as its working. And no fucker can actually PLAY the game. C/A groove roll whores. Not even RC. JUST FUCKING ROLLS :rolleyes: . I’ve played 2 decent players in about a year.

:wow: more info on this plz!

Why don’t you try the “master akuma” approach and just ignore them? VB has an ignore function for a reason.
You feel you have to defend yourself everytime and they know it, so they’re getting to you therefore they’re winning.

yeah there will be a strong player there, me :woot: :nunchuck: . challenge me and i’ll meet you there on a sunday. i am from cambs.

Well that blows. This makes for the first time in my life that I don’t live in a fighting game hotspot (previously lived in Tokyo and Southern California). Ah well.

i am just wondering why you like sc2 then???

Does anyone know if Meadowhall, Sheffield still has any decent games in the Namco Arcade? I haven’t been for years, but wanted to check it out again the next time I’m in the area.

A3 and T5 are the main games I believe. As stated somewhere amongst the shit in this thread.

There is a Tekken 5 PS2 tournament in London soon!!!
Saturday 26th March 2005, to be precise.

Check this thread: http://www.tekkenzaibatsu.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=75843

I think I’ve covered directions and all that quite adequately, but feel free to ask if you’re not sure.

Don’t wanna sound pompous, but I have to say that Tekken 5 is THE game to play in London right now!!
Last Saturday there were 4 different sessions at 4 different people’s houses, and last Friday there were 3!!!
SEVEN sessions in two days?!?! omglolwtf!

And Sergio’s upcoming session this Friday already has 17 people on the list! (I think it will eventually top 25 though).

And of course there are usually 30+ people at Ryan’s ranking battle at Westminster Namco Station every 2nd Sunday (next one is this Sunday).

3s and other SF games haven’t seen THIS kind of action in quite a while!!
For now even I’m putting 3s on the back burner and concentrating on tekken until abs or another 3s tourney lol

See you guys at the tourney if you can come!!!
