    And then that sound. That stomach churning sound. I'm not sure if I was laughing at it because it was funny or if I was in fact trying to mask terror.

    And it doesn't stop until the victor presses the button to continue... I kept forgetting to press that button.

    You just wanted to see that demented freak dinosaur of yours continue to grind the loser's corpse!

    Just lamped this together lads, I often do similar for the fighting game meet ups.

    My phone wasn't up to decent footage though :(

    THE BUTTONS WEREN'T MAPPED!!
    ;) good stuff , and a good night . I'd be up for the next one (in chez cider?) although I ll probably just drive and drink 'that rocketfuel' stuff ciderman had rather than beer;)

    I've a free gaff coming up soon and was thinking I could hold the next meet up. It would be the weekend of the 26-28 of August. Only problem is the whole living in balbriggan thing but I have plenty of room for people crashing for the night.

    You know you've been in college too long when you're in your late twenties and still using terms like 'free gaff' :pac:

    I'll be there anyway!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,790 ✭✭✭Jack burton


    Well I have plans every weekend from now till that weekend, I'd like to go up though, it would be fun

    I'll be working till 5 on the Saturday and 2 1/2 hour drive up, I might go up for the spin, I can always power through the night on monster energy and double decker bars!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,653 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Could be good for me, I'll check me schedule!

    Well I was ust thinking, I'm going down to Wexford for some mma fights and a birthday some saturday in Augest, think it might be the 15th though, I'm not too sure, I'll check it out tomorrow.

    But the prok chop express might be headed towards dubln


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,586 ✭✭✭cedomination


    I'll definitely try make it to the next one!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,036 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I'll have to check how easy it is to get the LCD TV's off the walls. We could have 2 LCDs, 1 CRT and 1 VGA monitor that's rotatable just for o1s1n. My place is really easy to find from the motorway and if anyone gets the train or bus, it's a 5 min walk or I can pick people up.

    And yes I have been in college for too long, 10 years in October. I better not make it 11.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    I can also give lifts if needed. Any excuse to use the motorway now :P

    There's no trying. You just confirmed you'll be there. If you don't show, all your games automatically become my property.

    Sorry, but that's just how it works. I didn't make the rules... :pac:

    I'd travel for it if Retr0 is putting up people in his gaff. I'd want someone else sleeping there too, though. I don't trust Retr0 to sneak in while I'm sleeping and pass over my head headphones plugged into a marathon Jeremy Parish podcast, devious bastard.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,036 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I can think of worse things to do, like J-pop. Awful J-pop. Morning Musume bad:



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,790 ✭✭✭Jack burton


    I have a suprisingly high tolerance for J-pop

    Only if I'm watching the video at the same time though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,388 ✭✭✭✭o1s1n

    You actually mean you have a suprisingly large collection of J-pop, don't you? :p


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,036 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I've actually none except for the Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! soundtracks but then again is has some crackers like Linda Linda:P

    may be moving that weekend but if not I'll try and pop down for the night


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 6,162 ✭✭✭Augmerson


    If I can, I'd love to try make it out to the next one, if you'll have me. I can bring an N64 and Goldeneye? ;)

    MM are the best thing since sliced bread. If I came I would be playing jpop non stop on my mp4. Just as well I can't make it :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    I didn't listen to MM song til now that I did I still prefer the one in Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! and two other ones. The still of the video has me roaring laughing.


    The two girls I loved in in MM started their own band called W


    (has nothing to do with MM) Perfume was on American Dad but I can't find them talking about the second time it was my friend telling me about it.

    Is there anyone going to that other Retro night that's being organized? D:


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,653 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Yup, did he mention a date yet?
    I'll definitely be going, the last one was great.
    Not sure what to bring along though.
    Do people want to play anything again?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,036 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Kind of clashes with my free gaff.

    Same!

    Sure the date of the other one hasn't been set in stone yet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 660 ✭✭✭NeoKubrick


    Yeah, if it's a choice, I'll be going to Retro's gaff. By the and for the community and all that.

    If I don't mention FFXII I'm sure we will both get on well. TBH I've been a bit harsh on that game. I have problems with it but it's more that the game doesn;t suit me more than anything. The free gaff is still the weekend of 27th-29th


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    this is my planned outfit for the meet up and I'll do the song too

    I better not look. I'm in college and don't want to be labelled with the Pedobear seal of approval.

    I'd be stallin it to retr0's too. Wasn't really thinking of going to the other one myself.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,036 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    There'll be no crowd surfing at my house so behave yourself. Topless women though... I've no problems there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    Oh, well I'm out.

    :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy

    Plenty of time to Bus Surf, he lives in the sticks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    is everyone getting the bus out?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    Well I said I'd drive so if anyone wants a lift?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    You did indeed.

    I can collect from town so yeah, anyone wants a lift, go there!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,036 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    The train is quicker than the bus but either is ok.
