Fighting games are saved.

Hopefully its a flash game in the vein of Dikembe saves the world.

I feel you all with the whole vision thing. The minute my glasses come off, I become a scared mess. I never bother to play sports like basketball or football with friends because I'm afraid my glasses will break and my vision will be gone. I take off my glasses and bam, my vision is soooo blurry, I gotta be like 1 inch away from something to be able to see without my glasses. Shit sucks, stops me from a lot :<, can't even enjoy a roller coaster ride cause I'm afraid ill lose my glasses if I keep them on while riding, so I just put them in my pocket and then ride, still fun but I don't want it to be blurry! And I'm also scared to defend myself cause if I try to fight, I gotta worry about my glasses because if they break, I lose cause then I can't see. So I just avoid situations like that in general but damn, I want perfect vision!

Marvel needs an update! I need more characters!

 

[Karsticles]

This'd be perfect if it said, "Its Mahvel Baby!" when the jukebox turns on.

Nah, it should say "I'm gonna take you for a ride!"

 

[Azure J]

+1 on the fear of losing glasses while doing stuff. Although, I'll still do it anyway because I'm simplistic as hell, I will kill to make sure that things are good if they leave my face for whatever reason.

Keep in mind that a trip to Peru would be something that might happen years from now, if ever. I think I've filled this thread with enough personal misery stories, but my finances are not in great shape right now. I really do appreciate the offer though, and I take it seriously. I would definitely stick around for some gaming time and exploration.

No problem at all, check your PMs. Maybe by then I'll have a console again and my son will kick your ass in mahvel with chun li, arthur and hsien ko!

Get ready to have your mind blown:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_insurance_costs_in_the_United_States

This is pretty accurate in my experience. My wife's mother pays ~$1000/month for her health insurance. This insurance would probably not cover Lasik either, haha. :-(

I'll read that but I still can't believe dem prices, they're nuts. I guess that's why so many tourists have been coming here to have their plastic surgeries done. I don't even want to ask for those prices!

 

["God's Beard!"]

If he died on the way, what does that have to do with Peru? I've always like Peru because it looks like a shoe, and it rhymes with shoe. Sounds good for a visit to me.

She hit the side of a mountain in Peru. Anyway I'm not into eating gerbils. I'll stick to Cuban.

my contact lens is about 350 dollar per eye. Good thing I can only wear one lens...(and I happen to lose it....a few days ago)

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Yo, the DOA movie is on TNT right now. This is some of the worst film making I have ever seen. Makes my eyes hurt.

Helena is hawt though....

 

[SolarPowered]

This is the thread title?

hmmm

 

[Karsticles]

This is the thread title?

hmmm

It's a great choice, yes?

 

[SolarPowered]

It's a great choice, yes?

Minimalism works, I guess.

Edit: Oh Jesus

The title is so growing on me with all those delicious coin gifs on the first page. Also, this is totally unrelated, but PGR2 and PGR4 are two of the best racers this industry has ever had the chance to play. Fuck what ya'll heard.

Edit #2: Some of you guys really hate glasses lol.

 

[alstein]

You mean VF?

Nah, Tekken has similar depth (though in a different direction), just more bullshit to wade through in order to get to it, and is much more of a turtle game.

 

[Naar]

Any big names going to Kuwait? Always seem to have good events over there that the time difference means I never get to see.

Big names locally yes, but no international. It will basically be the best of the GCC region

 

[sephi22]

Naar, you've been here for 5 years and still a junior.
Post more, habibi.

No worries, thanks. Will still try to catch some if the planets align, especially expecting some solid AE play.

I can't wait until ECT gets here. East coast tournaments are too hype. I can't wait to see everyone and watch the salty faces from people when they lose at Injustice.

You could replace Marvel 3 with a coin flip tournament and get the same hype, if not more.

It's been a week. Full playlist of that tournament Sako won.

Thank you.

 

[KingItachi]

The beat is ass.

 

[Dahbomb]

On the topic of Phoenix, yea the whole TAC trick screws her over particularly bad. Not many people even use it because Phoenix is not a common character in the meta.

Thing about Phoenix in the meta now is that since many players don't practice against her in a short set she can take games off you with either Dark Phoenix or regular Phoenix with XF3. People are slowly getting better at identifying and eliminating Dark Vergil early. Even if Phoenix is a redundant character you can't sleep on her or her team especially when nowadays people get 5 bars off one coin flip.

[Azure J]

Is that Murata?

Edit: Yep, it's Muratadagawd. The use of colors alone gives it away.

 

[SolarPowered]

Woah, is that new? It looks stupid freaking good.

That kind of art for a legit MvC comic would make my eyes melt.

I like Pusha but not this song Should've been Blocka, crazy synths version. YUUGH

East Coast Throwdown...


Fuck yeah.

 

[enzo_gt]

Side note: ECT's site and their SRK forum post is a mess. Frustrates me when people are trying to promote their event and they make it unintuitive to access information. Or some events have all the details.. Except for when it starts.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

30K? Meh, i'll do it with my word doc for $2.50 and a slice of pizza

Some of the PAR article choices are just downright odd. Not in the good Kill Screen odd way, either.

Amazing.

Since when did ECT become a one day event? I always thought it was a weekend event.

 

[MiniBossBattle]

I just too my glasses off/wore contacts when I played sports. I was too hungry to compete when I was in high school/college for my bad eyes to get in my way.
