I am by no means an excellent player, not even good, but I would say I’m a fair player. And I’m not saying that, instead is Capcom’s G2-C ranking that says so. I have played Street Fighter II games since I was in middle school, and enjoyed immensely. When I was growing up, we had actual training sessions where we got together with a couple of friends and instead of beating each other up in Street Fighter II, we trained. We practice “combos” when they didn’t exists by that name, and perfected techniques such as throws (yes throws). I was more of a console player and always be (specially now that I’m grown up and have a family, but hey, everybody is entitled to a hobby, and this happened to be mine J
In the end I used to be very very good SFII player back in the day, now that SFIV was out, I decided to pick it up and give it a try. It’s fun, it’s entertaining and most of all, it felt fairly familiar (not like the EX version of SF). I’ll keep playing and learning as far as I can without sacrificing family and/or personal hygiene, and hopefully share what I learned back on this site. If you want help, by all means drop me a line. And if you want to fight, I’ll see you online (fguime) in the xbox network.

So no more Windust? What happened to your old callsign? Anyhow, you are keeping your post very G rated by hiding what really was going during those long school night-into-mornings of training!
ReplyDelete"Training" of course is an euphemism for kicking all your player buddies into drinking every time they lost! After you had turned all your friends into de-facto alcoholics you and I had a couple of good bouts. Oh those glorious days of drinking the finest liquor we could find in your dad's the house bar!
Back then I don't recall "drunken-fighting" being a popular or well known term but I'm pretty sure that after a bottle of 40-proof+ liquor that's precisely what was going on.
Stop the G-rated madness, be true to your roots, change the blog name to DrunkenSF, keep your call sign... don't make me beat you down a whiskey bottle again!
