Here's a change of pace from the street fighter players. I've taken the time and interviewed a Smash Brothers player. In my opinion he's one of the best if not currently the best player in the city. He's one of my favourite players to watch and he's a cool guy to talk to. On a side note I've noticed DMCI has produced some great players. GO Maroons J To those of you outside the city he's got some words for you guys as well(Nothing mean just some words).

You may have came to our site as of recently and noticed something different. Perhaps you sensed that something was a bit off, not quite right. And then it hits you. Of course, it's the hair, you got a haircut.

Well, I guess you could put it that way. Infact, we have a whole new theme, and I've already heard complaints the minute I put it up *cough cough Korea*. So for all those out there who enjoyed the last theme more, I'll enlighten your curiosity as to why it was changed.

I'm not going to run all the reasons by you, but I'll give you a brief explanation. The old theme was hard to maintain, buggy, and unsupportive of many browsers. It made it difficult and stressful to manage as we… (more)

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… (more)

As most of you know I'm on staff for Baselan and have been for the past year and a half or so.  For me baselan is always a good time despite what tournaments go on there.  This one upcoming should be no different.  Unfortunatly this will be the first baselan I've been a part of where we will not be running a 3s tournament.  Due to it being very close to Fight for the future.  However I will be running brawl along with Soul Calibur 4.  I encourage everyone to come out who has before.  Its always a good time.  Heres the info for the event:

And here we are.  The 4th of the staff members making his entry.  I should perhaps state immediately that my rambles will have little to no consistency between them in terms of both content and dates.  I make no apologies for this.

Many ideas for my first ramble ran through my head.  General gaming thoughts?  Seemed irrelevant.  Predictions for the 3rd Strike tournament at FFTF?  Hard to say at this point.  Advice for those unsure whether to purchase an arcade stick?  Maybe but that's for another time.  Upon then, I once recalled a conversation about nostalgic gaming moments (of all kinds) and I quickly recalled my first moment seeing Street Fighter II.  A moment that I can recall very clearly.  It went something like this:

My parents took me to the local… (more)

So, I'm actually keeping up with blogs now, isn't that simply amazing? No? Well screw you guys too! Anyways, my big thing about today was 2DF, I cannot believe some of the shit I go through, after discussing with Shane last week about how 3S has so much BS in it, I can't even stand playing the BS game online anymore with 2DF (GGPO is even worse for me).

You see, my quarrel is with the whole input lag, and now that I've got this weird mindset where I watch what I throw out and try to "counter" someone's hit, so now it totally fucks my game up. For example, played against this dude who plays Ken religiously, I mean I sense his god damn fp. SRK when I jump in… (more)
