  1. Ah. I misunderstood then. *shrug* I don't know the magnitude of people who import games, much less BB specifically. I'd imagine it'd be somewhere in the hundreds, but that's more of a guess than it is an educated estimate. I know 360 games as a whole tend to sell better than their PS3 counterparts in the U.S., I'm just a little surprised if that applies to this game too, since it seems to have a greater PSN playerbase.
  2. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't XBL region-locked and PSN not region-locked? I know a number of PSN players on Dustloop imported the JP version just for that reason (that and cause they wanted to dodge the wait for localization).
  3. Requested to join FB group. Sorry for not getting it done earlier. =x I'll take care of getting my XBL stuff together in a minute... Um, whilst this sucks for the suffolk players, I'm kinda stuck in nassau for the next .... fucking 12 days? And even then when I come back to suffolk, I have business that I have to attend to and then I'm rushed back to Nassau the next day ~_~ Rather than waiting until forever to play with you guys, does the idea of weekly netplay casuals sound okay? Unless someone wants to step up and try organizing something with the few of you that are out there (albeit pretty scattered -- the Nassau scene is literally 15minutes or less from each other so organizing this is significantly easier).
  4. Star, as a person who plays a character that everyone (including you) hates, I'm going to say the following: Fuck them. Keep playing your game. And now I'm off to work
  5. As of right now, we've been going on Thursday nights cause that's when Hitoshura gets his MK fix in. (Besides, the entire LI scene concept is like 3 weeks old, we're still getting ourselves oriented) We don't have a separate night for BB casuals yet, although we are making plans to host a little tourney on 3/31. A thread will go up in Event Announcements once we have all the finer details figured out. In other news, I grabbed a copy of CSX for 360 as well, so that means 2 things: 1) I can play with some of you (i.e. BC Sama) that only have the 360 copy of the game, arigato netplayu. And 2) I can technically host casuals at my place if needed. With 2 setups now (1 PS3 and 1 360), that should suffice seeing as there aren't too many of us at the moment. And me hosting would save $5 on venue fee for peeps like HK . And most importantly, my house isn't fucking cold D< ....yesIamstillmadmyhandswerefreezingatTGElastnight. EDIT: Also picked up SC5 for 360, just saiyan. Not that I'll be good at it anytime soon...
  6. GG's HK and Hito. BG's to cold hands. D: I'ma try to get off that air habit yo. Holddat. :3 And BC, I didn't forget about Ush xD I actually had offline casuals for him with a couple hours this past Wednesday. Speaking of which, I'm chuck his handle/XBL tag on the OP. He said it was cool while I was with him, so yeah.
  7. Yo you saved me the trouble of making one then. Link me D:
  8. Lolnetplay. Lolragequitting. :x Oh and I have to take back something I said before. I -won't- be able to get to Suffolk on Mar 10th anymore because for whatever reason, I'm now scheduled to work every day that I don't have class between now and March 10th. zzz. Luckily I can get a copy of CSX for 360 tomorrow, I just have to hope I can find one.
  9. As much as I want to, I'm scheduled to work both this Friday and next Friday Q_Q This was why I told BC Sama the next time I'd be Suffolk is the -weekend- of March 9th. I'm stuck in Nassau until at least 10-11pm on Friday night, thanks to work. I should be able to get out there on Saturday though, and hopefully I can stay until Monday morning. But if it's Saturday (Mar 10th) or Sunday (Mar 11th) and I can get out there, I'm down to help you with organizing it and carpooling people around if needed.
  10. Ok bump + update. Hellknight and Hitoshura are both pretty hyped about hosting a tourney on LI, so more likely than not, we can make it happen. We still gotta talk to the guys at TGE before it's an official thing, but I doubt it'll be an issue. And hopefully we'll be able to record some of the matches, since streaming is very likely a "no". (None of us have real streaming equipment as far as I'm aware) Dai, even if you just come to play, that'll be a good help. :3 As I said once before, I'm like 2 minutes from Hofstra, and TGE is roughly 15min from me, so I can always pick you up and drive you if necessary... then again, this is also assuming I'm off of work on that day. >_< And I haven't given barely any thought to what games will be played, but Skullgirls sounds possible, I'd probably be able to borrow a copy from one of my co-workers (and possibly convince him to come join at the same time). Ok, non-tournament-related, I'm looking to make a little FB page and a post on SRK about the scene to see if there's any non-DL players out there. That'll be as soon as I have the time to sit down and effing do it. I'll post it up again when it's done. Last but not least, a brief excerpt from our trip to NextLevel on the 25th :D
  11. We got this~ :3 Uh, let me take a day to think about that tourney concept. The idea doesn't sound bad, I'm just hoping we can do it without getting any bullshit from non-BB players and whatnot. Last semester @ SBU? Q_Q Well, we can get some casuals and such in the meanwhile. Worst case scenario, we can rock netplay if necessary. (I hate resorting to that concept but it's better than no games at all...) Do you know anyone in the FB group that plays BB? I haven't actually approached SRK or Strong Island cause, well, I'm expecting quiet or a shitton of being redirected back to dustloop, or in the troll scenario, just get trashed for playing an animu game. And if it wasn't obvious yet, no there isn't a BB group on FB yet. I guess it'd probably help to get one up and running, wouldn't it? =| That was .... yeah my bad. I usually don't mess that up Dx
  12. @Star-Demon: This is where familiarity comes into play. When you get familiar with the names, the faces, the environment, it doesn't feel as awkward. I've been to NL 3 times now. First time I didn't do anything or speak to anyone. All I did was walk in, watch for maybe an hour, then bounce. Second time, I went, played maybe 4-5 matches, got completely bodied, stayed quiet the rest of the time mostly due to being frustrated with how I did. Third time was yesterday, had fun, got to speak up a bit more, enjoyed my stay from start to finish, but the big difference was knowing some of the people there. You might've enjoyed it a bit more if you had tagged along with some of us. The car rides were entertaining enough to break the ice.
  13. Real talk, I will quintuple post on this thread, make an alt account, and quintuple post again before I let this thread die. But while I am thinking about it, shoutouts/thanks to advanced for providing transportation and lulz yesterday and bringing Ushbro/heartfieldtalon. Hopefully we can do this again in April (since Dai is guessing that'll be the next TSB tourney date). BC, we need to do brawl casuals asap, but I dont think I'll be back in Suffolk until the weekend of Mar 9th... although hopefully I can get a copy of CSX for 360 come this Friday so I can get some netplay in with you guys.
  14. I'm still having trouble believing I'm the only Noel main that was in the tourney yesterday. Especially with SKD and Mahouko there (although I forgot to ask why he wasn't playing BB). And having trouble believing there were more Haz than Ragna users. And I'm gonna fill in the few blanks I see:
  15. Event was gdlk. You got me wondering what the 5th game is though. A couple pics I took during losers finals for BB:
  16. Judging by previous dates, looks like its generally the later half of the month. I quickly scanned over the Tourney Results subforum and found TSB result postings for these dates: 9/17/2011 10/29/2011 11/26/2011 12/17/2011 [GG was the only airdasher played on this day] 1/28/2012
  17. That was a crapton of fun. Looking forward to the next one, maybe I'll be able to take a round from Omni or advancedNoob in a month or so's time. Also, quick shoutouts to SKD's horse mask and the "saltstorm" we had
  18. Why isn't this canon? D: It should be. Also shoutouts to the gamer's edge being legit. Even more legit than the arena (although if we had to make something happen in suffolk, I could probably use that place). Adding MK_Hitoshira to the Nassau directory. Dude has a legit Arakune. Annnnnd, last but not least, LI invasion of NextLevel in 2 days. GET HYPE.
  19. Wow. First time I'm mad I don't have BB on 360.
  20. I was hypnotized by that .gif for 5 minutes.
  21. Chains got thrown. Shots got fired. Combos got dropped. And Tager mirrors. Shit was amazing. Next time we do either Brawl or Mario Party casuals (I will hunt down another controller if necessary, idc).
  22. And so, after a total of like 7 hours of labwork: Okay I seem to finally be getting the hang of both methods. Now I just practice. Good lookin' out Aco and Luna.
  23. Aight as long as its running xD I'll be heading out to Brentwood shortly. I'll give you a call when I'm headed to your place.
