A NEW WARRIOR HAS ENTERED THE RING - Let's Throwdown.

Post by Stevens »

If anyone has a better thread title/format I'm open to changing it.

Since a lot of us seem to like fighters and the reception to this idea has been positive here it is, a list of us who want to meet up on Fightcade, PC, or console and beat the snot out of each other. It doesn't have to be limited to fighting games either.

Post your info and it will make its way to the first post. Use the thread to drop challenges and set up games with each other. Enjoy.

I'm thinking something like this:

Shmup handle
Console handle - games played
ect - any other information you feel is worth mentioning.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stevens
Fightcade: Stevens - Super Turbo, 3rd Strike
360: CongrssOccultus - HDR Remix, Super SF IV, Garou (I'm awful at it)

Games I have that I don't really play but are willing to fuck around with:
Last Blade 2, Real Bout, Real Bout 2, Sam Sho II and IV.

I run Claw in everything, but a wouldn't mind getting into 3rd Strike and other fighters a bit more.

FightCade: pestro - CE, ST, 3rd Strike, Vampire Savior

I wouldn't mind playing 3rd Strike, Vampire Savior or KoF 98 as well but I'd like to focus on improving with Chun in ST right now. I used to play SSFIV before but I dropped it when Ultra came out and I don't really feel like going back to it.

You're sure to be in a fine haze about now, but don't think too hard about all of this. Just go out and kill a few beasts. It's for your own good. You know, it's just what hunters do! You'll get used to it.

Anyone up for ST tomorrow (Monday) at 8 pm EST?

EDIT: Just got home from work and I'm too tired to play ST tonight... Think I'll just do the usual Futari God Mode - Training Mode and then call it a day. Next time.

Having some trouble with fightcade on my current pc though. Can't get 3S to run at stable 60fps with any blitter setting and its more laggy then it should be (FBA is bad on newer pcs?), so been just learning it at the local arcade.

Fightcade: FinalBaton - Super Street Fighter II Turbo, Street Fighter Alpha 2

Those are the ones I play most but I'm down with playing any version of Street Fighter 2. And while I prefer Alpha 2, I'm also down with playing Alpha 3.

I'll post whenever I'm on Fightcade. I'm having trouble wit Fightcade right now though so I got to uninstall it and reinstall it.
EDIT : seems to run well enough now.

Anyone down for some SF2 or SFA2 on FightCade right about now?

Yeah, I saw him take out some really good players before as well. I really need to practice the Chun / Claw match-up so it was good.

EDIT: Yeah, I thought I recognized the name of that claw player lol:

EDIT 2: I re-watched my match with him on the FightCade Replay Archives and actually I didn't play as bad as I felt like I did, lots of close matches and I won a few. I definitely have a few things that I need to work on though. Anyways, Thanks for playing FinalBaton, always a good time! Let's play again sometime! Cheers

Cheers Image Glad you enjoyed, I'll take you on your offer for sure! I had fun too!
I know you're a lot better than I am but I like to think that I at least gave a respectable challenge!
Your level of play is actually just what I need for my training! It's just right. Plus, it's just really good times.

Yes I think you actually played well against that Balrog player! Especially after the first few matches. You threw him a bunch of times and won a bunch of rounds too!

I think your losses were not due to you playing bad, but rather due to him being a great player, lol

I play pretty much everything. Though I'm not good at a lot of things. I only started playing ST somewhat seriously last year, so I'm still pretty bad at it and there's a lot I don't know about the game.

Got word today that FIOS is available in my building. I hate Verizon, but I'll make an exception for this.

Should be good to go soon.
