[Ack]

Oh man, please tell me that AvP is three player. Oh man, I want one of those so bad...

[Majors]

I do not believe we have the proper harness for 3rd player, sorry. I'm sure you can drown our sorrow in the flood of other PCB's that will be on hand.

I've got a ride up there with a few friends, and am ready to tear it up!

[Majors]

All the Racketheads should use the secret handshake...if we had one.

I'll be in the game room all weekend, so introduce yourself if you see me. My name is Tony, my badge will read STAFF.

[Mod_Man_Extreme]

Cool, I'm Kevin

I'll be the one with the Ryu headband.

I had a table in the Artist Alley but thanks to a funeral, I cannot attend. One of these days Majors, bang, zoom, straight to the moon.

[Mod_Man_Extreme]

POW! Right in the kisser!

What Mod_Man was able to witness:




...and I got a hook-up for a THIRD Sega Vesus City! The only thing better than 2 Versus, is THREE! Next chance to witness the hype is MAGFest (or the next party at my new place, you know pic's are to follow once I get the garage converted to an arcade)

Yea, this years arcade kicked balls!!!!

I just got my yearly "Get schooled by a person who games on Capcom vs SNK/Marvel vs Capcom 2/ Street Fighter 4 more than touching myself" as a friendly reminder that i need to get in gear and working at a call center 8 hours a day doesnt improve that.

Of course, every year, theres the bomberman crowd. I gotta say, it seems to grow more and more every year. I personally suck at bomberman, but i should have jumped in when i had the chance.

I wasnt able to test the machines this year (there was like 4 people in line for each one) but someone decided to bust out the Atari 2600, which i got play such greats as yars revenge, ET, and a couple other games that im glad escape me. People accually stopped, looked, and laughed/cheered as i sucked my way though the stone age of gaming.

But i made my view and document on Animazement this year on another forum, so here it is: http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?t=230106

I think more than likely next year is going to be awesome!!!!...

[Mod_Man_Extreme]

My first con, and I've gotta say it rocked!

I finally got to have a match against some real gamers, and was raped soundly until I got back the hang of using an arcade stick (damn D-Pads) after such a long time with a controller.

I saw G Gundam for the first time in 7 years (TOONAMI!), had the chance to meet Spike Spencer who is the coolest guy ever, plus I got to get back in touch with my inner nerd as it's been getting neglected lately thanks to work. life etc...

In the end I had the F-ing time of my life!
