Offline Matchmaking / Anyone in the Atlanta, GA area?
« on: January 01, 2011, 09:10:53 AM »
Hey, I was just curious if there was anyone in the Atlanta area that get together and play some SNK games.  Would love to get back to playing some people face to face.

Also, any arcades in the ATL area, I've only been here a couple years but haven't really seen any.

Pro-Gear / Help with PS3 connection speeds.
« on: December 29, 2010, 02:16:23 PM »
Hey guys, I'm hoping someone would be able to help me out.  I have yet to get a lagless match in KoF94/XII or SamSho.  I know people love to bitch about the netcode, but I think those are just SSIV fanboys hating on SNKp's better games :P

I did a net test on the system last night and was only doing about 800k upload and about 1.7M down.  This is really bad for my internet.  Also the thing that makes me the most confused is, I have 100% signal strength to the system (connection is wireless).

My setup does not allow me to hardwire to the router because the cable modem is connected to the pc in my office and the PS3 is in another room (along with my gaming pc).  I have a wireless-g range extender, and with that my gaming pc gets wired net speeds...everything is super fast, online gaming/streaming/dl's...even ggpo has no lag.  Now I have no idea if there are any tweaks/setups I can do to get my speed up on the PS3.  It would make more sense to me if my signal was 70% or something and getting that up would help, but with 100% signal I am totally confused as to what else I can do to make these games playable.

I need this figured out especially for when XIII is released!!! Any help is appreciated.  Let me know if any other information is needed....oh yeah, everything is up to date btw.

Thanks!!

SNK Games / Anyone try out any NeoGeo Station games?
« on: December 22, 2010, 04:43:09 PM »
Anyone try these yet...especially online?  When I got home yesterday I didn't see the NGS on the PSN but I guess it was released, guess I failed last night lol.  Anyway, gonna check it out when I get off work tonight, just curious of any reviews about the online and the emulation.

Social Club / "Who is your main"
« on: December 21, 2010, 07:41:37 PM »
I don't know if I put this in the right forum, if not I appologize.

After being gone from fighting games for about 8 years some things seem really weird and foreign to me.  The whole "who is your main" or "i only play XX game cus I main it" confuses me.

I never thought that I would only play 1 or 2 characters and thats it.  I would always try most of them out...of course I would have my favorites but I need to switch it up. Playing only one character is boring.   Plus, actually playing all the characters really lets you know what to expect fighting them...and build strats against them.

Also "maining" a game..I could not do that, I would play some more then others, but variety is a spice of life!  Before I quit, I played SF3:3s mostly, but would play/tourney CvS2, MvC2...and play the hell out of Garou, SamSho 2/4, whichever KOF was good at the time SvC:Chaos.

Maybe I'm just weird thinkin this way.

Meet & Greet / Hey DC, Old timer returning.
« on: December 21, 2010, 04:13:46 PM »
Guess I should intorduce myself.

I am a returning FG player, played hard core back in Vegas (in ATL, GA now) for a alot of years...3s, MvC2, and CvS2 (thats what was being played competitively).  But I did have a couple friends who would play Samsho, KOF's, Garou, and SvC Chaos (yeah I know its not great but was still fun). 

In coming back I've realized that I really did like the SNK games more, but with the arcades being the way to really play against others/tourneys you were at the mercy of the crowds.  Now with all this online play I'm going to give it a shot at coming back and playing my lovely SNK games.  Can't wait for the release of KoF XIII.  I may not have the finger dexterity as I used to....us old guys lol...but I got the strats.

Anyway, I been messing around on GGPO (using my new PS3 R2 TE stick), but feel sooo rusty.  My mind knows what to do but my 8 years of rust stop the hands from always doing it lol.  If there are any people that are willing to help the elderly get back into it, let me know lol.  Ok, im not that old, just 31 lol.
