Upstate SC: We're so good we don't even have to PLAY. And out-of-towners post FOR us

We used to have a pretty big Tekken scene once upon a time, but most of the serious players moved away (including myself ;p).

I should rephrase my original comment - you can still get IN to the groups if you aren’t a student afaik, it might just be hard to find them. I would recommend going to the Student Center (Hendrix) and checking the bulletin boards there. They also have hella good chicken quesadillas, I lived off them shits when I was a student there.

Hey Shiki, where do you go to vote? I would vote for…

Category A (Capcom games):
3) Street Fighter Alpha 3 (PS2)

Category B (SNK games):

Category E (Wildcard)–Only if necessary after the 1st 4 games are run:
4) Write-in for game not even in a category (not major game or previous game)

Ted I stand corrected - Spraker pointed out on facebook that the TE stick that comes with that version of the game is NOT the MadCatz controller, and is NOT ergonomic. That stick blows. But the TE stick IS system specific, so I’m still glad I got a custom stick that’s 360/PS3 switchable instead of buying 2 of those.

Got my stick yesterday…AWESOME!!! Thanks to filldoh for the games since no one else wanted to play UMK3…losers ;p

i totally have that bought…but it won’t let me download it any more for some weird reason? same with double dragon and a few other games D:

ted, gg’s the other morning sir

when to throw some mvc 3 and ssf 4 tournys around in here

Jordan was saying there was some kind of issue with licensing and they were all removed. Which blows.

that blows, there’s like 4-5 games that are like this for me :confused:

vex if you have bought the games before and want to redownload just go to your dl history and redownload it. we gotta play some double dragon when you do.

also for anyone that still wants UMK go to target and buy the dl card. they cant sell it on the marketplace because of the licence issue but they still honor the cards.

QQ im going back to work the 18th… I should have maybe planned for after MK came out lol!.

So who wants to go to Vegas for the MK tournament? I’m really getting hyped about this game!

Me!

GG’s today Ted, sorry it was so laggy. Definitely wasn’t my best showing, the crying baby sitting next to me didn’t really help that much :lol: AHHH PARENTHOOD!!!

I got to really sit down and play the MK9 demo this morning during casuals before a local tournament out here. It was really awesome - my hype meter is through the roof. Felt really natural, and surprisingly, I could feel elements of pretty much all of the previous games (even the last one, which I’m playing through right now for the first time) in it, and I like what I’m seeing.

AE dated and priced(cheap at $15) and more new details on SFvsT damn this year is insane. They need to slow down i dont have time to play the cool shit i have now much less more cool shit.

hey Kyah! I need to talk to you about some stuff i’m planning. I may need your help and advice if you think you can lend me some! haha :slight_smile: It’s about a Tournament. I know your pretty knowledgeable about this stuff.

you playing marvel 3 online now fool?

we gotta play sometime…no AHVB means me no scare!

planning for the next Gvegas beatdown and i am looking at two weekends May 22nd or June 19th does anyone see a tournament conflict with either of those? Trying to attract as many people as possible and i dont want to cause a conflict.

hey all,

don’t mean to spam the thread or anything but we’re just getting the word out about the next big tournament in Blacksburg, VA. had a great turnout at the last event and we’re trying to double it this time around!
