Ok, so new theme for the site, not a big fan of it. But Jayse is the webmaster, can’t do much. I want to start things off with a bit of Fighting Game News, like I usually do. First off, Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix is supposedly rumored/confirmed for a November release from this Capcom Unity Blog. If you watch the video, you will laugh considering that they show Grahame Wolfe DESTROYING this Ryu player, the commentator is stupid and is a very big scrub since he called Grahame’s Boxer bringing on the CHEESE moves. What a bloody douchebag.
Another thing that I’d like to point out is the new screenshots of Fei-Long and Dan in SFIV, I personally think that the New Warriors along with Sakura should NOT be in the game, or at least Sakura and Dan. I know it’s a fan based thing and they’re listening, but I mean come on. Dan and Sakura seriously should not be in the game. I mean this is a sequel to SFII and prequel to SFIII. Keep it to the SFII character roster then. This is just my opinion, so it’s not like what I say will mean anything. Console exclusive characters kinda suck now that I think about it.
Fable II is getting rave reviews this week and is probably considered the best RPG for the 360 right now, don’t believe me? Head over to any game news site and you’ll probably find that the game has received a high rank everywhere. Should I get it? No, simply because I stated before that I do not own a 360, but I basically am urging anyone who DOES have one to go out and buy it, just for the simple fact that you can be a pregnant girl holding a gun shooting things. Woo crazy woman with a baby and a gun! JUST WHAT I WANTED IN A GAME!
You guys also been hearing about that Killer Instinct 3 crap going around too? No? Here you go, they were blabbing about it in the new Banjo & Kazooie game. Apparently there has been sheet music and stuff in Viva Pinata that also feature stuff about it. Is this game coming out? I don’t know, I thought the originals were garbage.
I went to a potluck this week that gathered some of the old school crew from the gaming community of the U of M this past week. It was pretty decent seeing some of the people there and playing some old school games/fighters with them. In all honesty, they aren’t so bad (UMGA that is) they just need some sort of expansion or something. Although I’ve heard through their own mouths that UMGA was transforming into something else. GASP! What could it possibly be?! At the potluck I also met with someone else who is interested in our tournament organizing services. It was one of the guys from the Manitoba Comic-Con. That’s right, chipdamage.com/SSGA might be nerding it up at next year’s Manitoba Comic-Con. ALRIGHT! More with that as soon as I get in contact with the guy.
Fight for the Future II is almost upon us, and that means people better start training for the 22nd of November. All the information is pretty much posted on that site. Please help us advertise by spreading the word and even printing out a few posters to put up around the city. Don’t care where, just do it!
Norman from Saskatchewan is coming in tomorrow, Thursday, October 30. We plan on gaming and probably hanging out with him since he’s in town. It will be a one night deal as he is going home with his “new” car that he bought. Please drop by or come hang out with us. Contact me, James, on my Cell Phone (951-4599) or Duong on his cell (293-6446). I think we will also be meeting on Saturday for some late night gaming, but please contact us for further information.
Well things are almost upon us. Halloween this Friday, then Nov. 1 all the candy goes on sale, and then BAM, Christmas is coming up! I’m dead broke for Christmas, but I’ll manage to do something! Anyways I’m out, GGPO guys.
James “Korea” Kim
