If you're talking about the patch, that went live on consoles on March 1st, Steam on the 9th (based off the internet, I haven't checked for myself recently).

You beat me to this. I was gonna make a GG thread all weekend but never got back to here to do it.

I too love the fuck out of GG and would like to play it more than the not at all I currently do. I really want to learn something in addition to SFV (will be tricky with my time available but fuck it).

The one big pain in the ass is that GG isn't cross play. I'm PS4 for the record. I still haven't played the game enough to really pick a main but I'm leaning towards Ram.

@GetTheTables will make Tokido cry at EVO just like Daigo did today. :)

Daigo's Guile is likely to bring anyone to tears fighting it. I'm only likely to elicit tears of pity.

My best hope is that I can Gandhi someone.

Watched Devilman Crybaby recently and I liked it a lot. Sort of makes me want to go back and check out some of the original stuff.

 

The original animated stuff is good, but the manga is the real source material and it's pretty wild.

 

Man, old manga is pretty hardcore. Naked girls everywhere, main characters who are real dicks, and violent in a way you wouldn't expect retro manga to be.

For real. I've always been really fascinated with that stuff.

Found I think the first chapter of Violence Jack online a few years back and gave it a read. That was a trip.

My friend and I in high school found a theater that was showing Wicked City somehow. We had watched a couple of anime movies at that point like Akira and Vampire Hunter D but we were still new to anime in general.

That was one fuck of an eye opener.

You have a good point about Cross Tag actually. I kind of lost touch with that game, but one thing that seemed to be noticeable in one of the very early promo videos was that the characters had multiple assists that could be use during in one match... Either that or there was so,e. Sry quick tagging going on, but it looked cool.

 

And yeah, you might as well play if you’re going.

 

I hope you enjoy Vegas while you’re there. Are you just going for Evo or hanging around for a little extra?

Yeah this whole thing actually came about cause my wife wanted to take a trip mid year and her sister has never been to Vegas. So I'm sure they'll be doing stuff and I'll hang out with them periodically.

@GetTheTables We're gonna meet up right

@Akhos Fo sho. I figure once it gets closer to EVO time we can wrangle up everyone who is going and try for a meet up.

Good Luck at Evo @GetTheTables! I didn’t see that before my last message, but I hope you have a great time! Play your best, and learn as much as you can!

 

What games are you going to sign up for?

 

For unrelated news: the Discourse SRK is uglier than my asshole. I’m happy to see more people coming over here.

Thanks!

Right now it's just SFV. That is the only game I have played nearly enough to not feel like I'd be complete clown shoes at. Even then I'll still be well outside my depth but it'll be fun.

I'd love to play GG as well but I'm not even at clown shoes level in that game.

Just had the though that Cross Tag is gonna be so damn new it may be worth entering in that just to throw bullshit out and see how far I can get.

I was debating whether to play or not but the competitor pass and spectator pass are the same price; at that point I figured why not pay $10 so I can say I played SFV at EVO one year.

That is a good thing. Not too many are okay with that. Keep it tasteful is always a must, though.

But as interesting as a cosplay strip show would be, I think that a cosplay burlesque show would be far more entertaining and possibly lucrative.

Maybe I should set some things in motion here.

There was one of those at a con near us a year or so ago and some friends invited us to go. Sadly we already had plans so we couldn't make it.

Cosplay burlesque seems like a fucking lock on easy money. Doesn't hurt that the modern game industry is producing waifus at unprecedented rates.

I am quite sure your wife would be thrilled with that idea. Quite sure...

Anyway, a pity that Dita Von Teese will only have a show in Vegas in June or I would recommend for you and your wife to go see it.

That is some quality burlesque that everyone should appreciate at least once in their lives!

My wife is very pleasantly okay with a strip show, provided it is at least trying to be tasteful. She probably wouldn't be too excited about me dropping bank to fund the show, unless I was able to show sick profits. I'd just need enough Neclords to make it a decent ROI.

A Dita show would be awesome to see. That is a helluva lady.

@GetTheTables

 

pls take pictures of some lewd cosplayers.

Providing there are any, certainly.

Failing that it is Vegas so I'm sure I'll see some boobs somewhere.

Hell with enough money I could put together my own lewd cosplay strip show.

Hrm.....

Alright I'm officially going to EVO.

Will be fun to get bodied then hang out.

I waited the transition out and the new site looks like butt, so here I be.
