Hey, moved to Houston a couple months ago and now that the new job is a bit more stable. Looking into getting into some GG and possibly some P4.

Just have been training mode a bit so I'll be free for at first but been playing fighting games awhile so hopefully will pick up stuff pretty quick. Gonna try to use some local netplay at least if no locals happening to try to up my game. Will edit with my PSN since I rarely play online and honestly can't even remember it. Used to play with the Melty players down here a bit but that's been awhile.

Anyone have gatherings let me know. Job has me traveling so whenever I'm in town I'm free for games.

There's a Tournament this Saturday at Monster's Arcade, which seems to include Persona 4 Arena. I'm probably the only active Persona 4 player in Houston, so I haven't played locals since the release of the game. I'm still active online for the lulz though. I can play on both PSN and XBL if you're interested.

Probably the only time I ever play offline is when I go to Free Play Fridays at Insomnia Video Game Culture near Monster's Arcade. http://www.facebook.com/events/538184069525947/?ref=2

I seem to have terrible luck being able to make it out to the UoH meets, unfortunately, so if unless asked to, I am highly unlikely to go.

Our Anime Scene is dead, and whoever is left of the scene, aren't very motivated or supportive, so I'm just playing mainly for fun now. I still enjoy P4U a lot, so I'll always be up for some games.

Do we really have GG interest? I apologize that I let Brian down to go play with old school players when the game came out on next gen but if there's still people wanting to play maybe I can redeem myself.

and GG at showdowns... just like old times...

Don't think you'll have much trouble there, people will be playing that for a while here.

If you can run a setup at insomnia, then please do. There's a severe lack of air dashers from my time of going. I know they're hosting a tourney for BB & UNIB in about 2 weeks, but a weekly or something for air dashers in houston would be nice.

I'm not sure how free play Fridays look, but in my experience there's alot of sf, kof, injustice, and mk. Not alot of gg, bb, mb, unib, or sg.

I'd like to start travelling to play BB, since people around where I live are only interested in Xrd : ( does Insomnia still hold weeklies for the game?  If not is there somewhere else in the area with players?

I'd like to start travelling to play BB, since people around where I live are only interested in Xrd : ( does Insomnia still hold weeklies for the game?  If not is there somewhere else in the area with players?

I actually asked the guy at Insomnia about this.  He told me what you already know. "We don't hold tournaments for Blazblue anymore because everyone switched over to Guilty Gear when it came out."  --but, he went on to say, "Friday nights is free play, so you can come in and play whatever game you want with whoever you want."

So I guess technically that'd count as weeklies, but you'd have to find other people willing to play with you that night.  I gave up on BB for this exact reason, not much of a local scene.  Now I'm part of the problem.  I also just play Xrd.  XD
