I always thought that mary figured out that geese sponsored the 97' team and she would get revenge for tricking her? If thats the case, I cant see them throwing her back on a team with billy and yamazaki. I think if anything she will make it in with a agent team of mary/vanessa/ramon

« on: May 26, 2011, 11:26:21 PM »"King of Fighters XIII is officially up and running at the Galloping Ghost Arcade! Its in a Dynamo cabinet, with a 27" Asus monitor, and brand new Sanwa joysticks and buttons! "
I'll post pics next time I go. I won the marvel 3 tournament there this weekend and part of the prize was a pass to go back. If you live near chicago and haven't been to GGA you are missing out. They have 100+ games and tons of cabs for the latest games. You pay 15 bucks to get in but everything is on freeplay, and they are open until 2AM EVERY DAY.
yo syxx is that serious for real? Is it up and running already?
