    Tournament time.
    Most of us would be unaware of the popular 2D fighting scene in the east, Regular tournaments, challenges at the local arcade being very common,
    Ireland being a "3rd world gaming" country doesnt see any of that light, we barley have any arcades and the ones we do have are filled with jolly money winning machines,
    Since not everyone has access to a hardcore, ecstacy of a local arcade , next best thing is XBOX Live. There is a very good and challenging to say the least 2D fighting community, current games being played the most are
    Street Fighter III : 3rd Strike url="http://www.circuitcity.com/IMAGE/product/detail/upc/EC.UPC.013388290130.JPG"]Click[/url
    Capcom VS SNK 2
    Guilty Gear X2# Reload
    Capcom Fighting Jam
    KOF Series

    I've been playing 3rd Strike for a while now, frustrated with the lack of challenge. Sadly PS2 versions of the above games do not have any online support, so if you dont own a X BOX, pick one up, 100 euro only !
    Anyway to the point : trying to recruit Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike players in particular for some local online games and maybe in the future a team blah blah blah. Maybe even get together at some LAN for a few games, so even if you have the above games on PS2, say youre interested.

    Now for some 3rd strike persuasion.

    I remember playing SFIII in Dr.Quirkeys about 1&half years ago, they took it out after a few months which sucked as i loved playing as Garuda :( don't remember if it was 3rd strike though...


    Too many Tekken 5 machines in there tbh :p

    I have an xbox and the anniversary collection, but not xbox live! Oh and I have all of those games besides Guilty Gear.

    Does it support system link? if it does try www.teamxlink.co.uk and you can play online. (for free)


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,070 ✭✭✭Placebo


    No doesnt support it.
    You dont particularly need xbox/live[akthough would be a high advantage], just be good. And when the time comes, show it. ;)

    Quoted for truth.

    If I had an Xbox Live connection, or and Xbox for that matter, or even the time to play then I'd join you Placebo but alas I don't.
