... you might be OG

here you go :smiley:

I was about to say it’s nice not being the oldest fart on the board, but I remember playing that other Kung Fu game in the arcades, Yue Air Kung Fu or some shit. Had fat guy, the chick, and the guy with the yellow Gi and the nunchucks when I was 8.

And also playing Mike Tyson’s Punchout on the NES everyday.

Most of those made me go :rofl: cause its so true, aaa the good ol times :wgrin::wink:

I remember as a kid I used to always push on the coin slots on all the arcade machines to see if a quarter would come out. It worked a lot more than you thought.

Wal-Mart used to have a “mini arcade” section back in the day. SF2 and Samurai Showdown ftw.

The bowling alley’s were top tier for arcade games. MK, KoF, SF, SS and many others.

I remember bringing move lists to arcades. I did my part to share the wealth but there were a lot of stingy mofos there too, lol.

Dude, I soooo remember that. In fact, the very first character I ever picked in WW was Blanka, I just remembering seeing him on the selection screen and thinking, “This guy has to be the most kickass character in the game, he’s a freakin’ monster!” Two rounds later and I’m sitting there wondering how he got his ass kicked by a regular guy in a white gi.

I also remember discovering Honda’s Hundred Handslap and thinking it was “The Move of Death”. Yeah, that didn’t last long.

The hundred hand slap was beast if the other poor bastard picked 'Gief. Then you just mash PPP until the match is over.

I was a stubborn bastard though, I’d skip out of school to go the mini golf place trying to learn 'Gief when nobody else was there, then once I finally got the hang of him everyone was using Guile/'Sim/ in addition to shotos. :wasted:

Obviously Gay?

OMG its Tragic: The Gathering!

I’d like to personally thank ben for posting this list to reaffirm my OG status. :sweat::looney: Thank you sir, thank you. Actually I did enjoy your list though. But I guess you should add these -

  • if you had a gun pulled to your head/maced/almost jumped because you were “cheesing” some niggas, then you’re pretty og
  • if your machine was turned off because ppl didnt like how you played then you’re pretty og
  • if you always had to watch who you were playing and would have to give rounds/game for fear of getting fucked up youre pretty og
  • if you know what the penny/quarter trick is and abused the fuck out of them hella you’re pretty damn og
  • if you entered the “konami” code at the attract mode screen in CE to see the character breakdown (acutally i forgot what the code did its been too long) then youre pretty og

thats all for now :stuck_out_tongue:

I remember when Hadouken was “Ahugit”…

Ahhh the memories :lovin:

oh man, i remember playing SF when i was like 6 or somethin. it was funny when i beat people older than me (12-13) and they used to complain that i was a “cheeser” hahahahha.

LOL, it’s a shame I never got THAT good. But now I wanna hear MORE.

I always liked that kid…

It is most certainly “attack tech whirljack”.

Damn! I am a horseman so I must be OG! Im a fucking relic! (Thats us in the picture I have as my avatar.)

QFT!!! Getting fucked up, shot , stabbed or mugged were all shitty ways people showed their apprecitaion of your 11 win streak.

AND, your an OG if you played any pirated version of street fighter in the arcade.
Ala: Ryu’s double bouncing hadoken and Zangiefs triple 360 PD.

If you were a teenager when SFII first came out… you might be OG.

If you have ever done jump HP, c.HP, hurricane kick, and had someone say “thats my combo. do your own” you might be OG.

**If you remember when “all you can” was the ‘official’ move name… you might be OG.

If you remember when people tried to “asian” up the phrase “all you can” by saying “allYOUkin”… you might be OG.**

If you can remember when tokens felt like the only currency in the world that mattered… you might be OG.

If you remember when GamePRO actually had useful information regarding Street Fighter… you might be OG.

If you remember the line of quarters that would get placed on the screen for the “play the winner” line and you remember where your quarter was at all times along with the people around you.

All of the above apply to me - also it was “A doogen”, “Hoy youken”, “Don’t touch dem bergers”

Unfortunately, Gief beats HHS rather easily with low roundhouse.

Now Balrog is another story…

Yeah but I wasn’t down with the Russian like that back then, so the one guy at the arcade always picked Honda just to fuck with me :sad:

Also, if you played in the era when Guile’s kick had like 50 different names, you might be Obviously Gay.
Laser Kick, Flash Kick, Spin Kick, Flip Kick, Somersault Kick, Blade Kick, Kick That’s Not Ryu/Ken’s Kick, etc.

It really doesn’t matter unless you can still bring it.

rofl! Too good!:rofl:
Also to add to this…
If you threw someone and they gave you a hard look and didnt respect the throw back and you knew if you threw him again you would have problems…you might be OG.

If you were sent to the store by your moms and decided to stop in the pizzaria/bodega to get one quick game of SF which ended up turning into 2 hours…realizing it, and just said to yourself “I’ll just prepare for the punishment when i get in” you might be OG.

If someone at your local aracde/bodega/pizzaria was there practically all day just to watch ppl play and ask for rounds when you come in or a quarter…you might be OG!

If I remember correctly the numbers represented how many times each charecter was played or selected. I could be wrong, but back in the day we thought the #s was a secret code to something. Later I read that it would display the amount of times charecters were used or something for operators.

LOL Konami code ftw.

If you remember playing peeps on shitty concave buttons that stuck all the time due to sweat, candy and drink spill…

If you remember sticks being broken and you still played peeps despite your handicap…

If the one credit ending/music rings more catchy to you than in ST…

If you got in fist fights with MK fanatics and have scars to prove it…

If you had to hide your obsession of SF from your girl friend…

If you found you soul mate while playing SF…

If you remember a time when Game Balance was a myth and you were gonna stick to F***in’ Gief to the end…

Yeah, you might be OG.
