Austin, TX meet up thread

[indecks]

It was outside? In 300 degree weather!?

Ah, but at least it'd been a dry heat recently. *sigh*

I'm surprised the 360 or PS3 that was used didn't simply melt. There's no way in hell I'd go to a tourney or even t in Texas summer. Eff that. Call me when there's A/C.

I am considering putting the Streets of Rage meet up on hold. Don't worry, this is for a good reason:

The http://www.meetup.com/videogameclub/ guys are setting up a launch meetup/party for the Guardian Heroes HD launch. There is no official release date, but SEGA has said it will be available on Xbox Live in August. I am currently working with Paul, the group organizer, to bring the Austin Racketboy crew in on this. This would probably be held at Paul's house. We will have a bit more room to stretch out and food/alcohol would now be an option.

Well that would definitely be cool.

I'm going to be out of town for a couple of days, but I'm returning to Austin on Sunday, July 3rd, and I'm going to try to make it to Game Over's Street Fighter Sunday. I'm aiming to at least be there for the SF2 Turbo tournament at 7pm. Even if I don't get there in time to sign-up to participate, I'll probably still hang out and spectate. I just wanted to mention that in case anyone else was planning to go.

Thanks for the reminder. I had forgotten it was this Sunday. If I'm free I will be there. Willie and I were talking about getting together to game on Sunday anyway.

Gah. I missed this. I got 2nd in one of Game Over's Street Fighter tournaments a year (two?) ago.

Green light for Austin Racketboy fans to attend the Guardian Heroes HD launch meet. I am switching out the thread title to reflect this.

I will be at Pinballz Thrusday night, 7/14 (I have no idea what time) for my birthday. I am not throwing a party, but drop by if you guys want to hang out and play some games. Maybe let me beat you a few times in Virtual On to swell my aging ego. No gifts, please.

Also.

I just read that Tekken Blood Vengeance 3D will be playing at select theaters for a very short time on 7/26. The the movie is a full length CG feature. I have no doubt that it will be hilariously bad, but I cannot forgive myself if I miss it. Here is a list of locations in the North Austin/Round Rock area. Who's with me???

I'll try to make it out to Pinballz on Thursday night. I'll let you know either way.

Being that the Tekken 3D movie is on a Tuesday night and not the weekend, I'll have to wait a while before I know if I could make it out to it.

That would be awesome if you could make it out.

I am going to be pushing it on vacation time, but I was able to take the last half of 26th off. So I should be good to go for the Tekken showing.
