WetPussy Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 my arcade was called "Videolandia" back in the day. the one i also went to occasionally back in the day was called "time-out". but videolandia was the shit. they had every game an arcade could fucking have at the time, all the fighting games, car games, shooting games, pinball games, even some fucking games that you use a claw to catch little stuffed dolls, they had it all, and all for only a quarter.i much orefered arcades instead of home consoles. i wonder why arcades arent the shit anymore?

Mauler5150 Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Noobs weren't around when this game came out. That lingo evolved from the internet age. And my fave trcik with Guile was to hold the joystick in a crouching guard position, and medium kick until they jumped at you upon which you would do a somersault kick. You could also easily sonic boom them from here quite easily too. But my fave character was still Ken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mauler5150 Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I thought it was someting like that. Thanks for actually spelling it out, but I was alludint to the fact that players weren't refered to as this (with said nOOb spelling). But I thank the armed forces for giving me one of my favorite sayings in 'fuck trophies' to describe kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
