There are supposed to be thunderstorms all day tomorrow, and I'm still recovering from an illness. So no karaoke with friends for me tomorrow night.

Dammit.

I play Tekken 5 DR more than any other game combined now, despite being relatively poor at the game. =S

A regular cold, or something else?

Not really a cold. I got a mild sore throat, a buildup of phlegm in the throat, and occasional fever and headaches.

You're not one of those: "Paper money ain't safe" kind folks, are you? ( I know a couple) Those CC bills @ the end of the month look like murder in invoice form.

Get better. What are you taking for a remedy?

How much of a win streak was it? I've yet to play it, and due to the dismal arcade scene here, I never will unless a console gets it. ;___;

That's the Tekken with the 2 new characters, isn't it? Which one is better?

Man, I just tried playing 3rd Strike and KoF02 after a looooooooooooong absence and man I really sucked. Anyone ever take a break from fighters? How long does it take to get back in the swing of things?? I'd hate to think that I've pigeonholed myself into being a RPG only gamer....

And on that note: I know it's of no relevance to anyone but me (and possibly Fuu if he's still around) but Atlus just announced Persona 3 for the PS2.

:D :grin: OH YEAH!!!!!!!!! :grin: :D

Getting back into fighters after some time off can suck. My guess is the amount of time it takes to get back into things is different for everybody considering things like how good you were and if you're playing with people or scrubs or AI. After I quit fighters for a while and got back into playing, I try to play for just a little bit everyday or so just so I don't lose it again.

I personally have just had problems finding good games to play. I played through Resident Evil DS and that was a nice walk down memory lane, but wasn't all that exciting. I've been playing Super Princess Peach and it's really fun, though a bit too easy.

In other news, I got a Neo cabinet about a month ago, so maybe I should take some pictures of it or something. It's not in the best shape and the button layout is goofy, but the price was right. Nothing wrong with it that can't be fixed.

Shiny: It was just a 3-game win streak, but it made my day :3

Especially since the opponent was using Gato, Kula, Ash, Oswald, Malin, etc. :p
I was using Shen/K'/Terry, btw.

Started playing KOF03 once again on X-Box and its rather fun I must add, I didnt play to much of it in the past but just started yesterday.
Can someone tell what is up with the story? Chizuru is a bad guy? The hell I was confused as I played the game and there is a younger version of Rugal with some crazy ass sister.
I must say I enjoy playing with Shingo, and most of the grapplers.

i tried explaining 4chan to my pill-pushing shrink
i don't agree with her that interest in internet pornography means i desire a girlfriend
maybe i should've clarified that i mostly beat off to underaged anime women getting raped

current mood: CUT CUT CUT

I don't think that's the angle you should be taking... on account of not getting locked up and all.

So recently I've come to the conclusion that everyone should postpone getting a girlfirend and make money instead. Money doesn't annoy you, you see... and is imo the root of all happiness.

I don't like that Hollywood stereotype, in case no one noticed.
