You mean this thing? Sucks it's on Saturday(I'll be gone), and that the game's already released by then, there's a 5$ entry fee, and that the prize is the game... You got this Joker!
Dirty money Isle? I'd be interested in games today but it doesn't matter to me where.

Lol this Colin asked me too but I just woke up XP
Well, FACK >.<
I saw there was a tourney for it but just assumed it was today or tomorrow lol but since is on a Saturday I won't be able to make it since I think me and Colin possibly Skizm too will be at Omaha for a Brawl tourney T.T
Which speaking of anyone else interested in going Colin should have one more spot open.

As posted in the Omaha thread, Jarell got 5th at a tournament in TX. He obviously deserves his spot on the NE Freer.

Fack man everything is snowballing out of control >.<
Even though he may find a way to salvage it to get the Goddess the damage is done. Now looking back I see why Chihiro and Katsuragi got along really well when he was conquering her in the early chapters.

This manga is too good ^.^
I don't think I'm going since I'll be there Saturday for the Brawl tourney unless Colin wants to go the day before >.>

Isedelica already found a loop with Vergil that can kill any high health character with 2 meters. The more meter you have the more loops you get so its basically MvC2's HSF loop.

I'll teach you a little about Marvel. I'll even teach Joker Virgil.
Marvel: The Avengers were formed to defeat Hulk after Thor was defeated by him.
Virgil is cool guy e has sword and doesn't afraid of anything. And I have no problem with his voice-actor. I love it actually : D

His voice-overs an dt pose are the reason I even want to play him.
He just looks so cute. x3 "Now, I'm motivated."

So this is totally out of the blue and all but I've got a question for you guys. First let me explain the situation.
One of my longtime friends has been playing fighters for almost a year now, I have been teaching him stuff in vanilla Marvel 3 (for a total of about 4-5 months) and we were both hella hype for Ultimate.
From time to time he gets pretty salty after I beat him. I even tell him how to get around situations, I have spent almost 10-15 hours with him in training mode trying to teach him combos. I have seen him progress a lot since he first started, he just needs to learn to stop patterns, block, and work on combos.
He plays on an Xbox pad and I even told him I would buy him a stick if he wanted. Usually he just says "I don't know...maybe sticks are so weird." I even suggest characters and show him things with those characters and break them down for him.
In vanilla he played Sent/Haggar/Akuma. I'm no top player but I've told him time and time again how his team doesn't have that much synergy. I have even suggested characters for him and let him borrow my Vanilla strategy guide to get some ideas of characters or combos.
I went over to his place Tuesday and we played a lot of matches, but in the end he was super salty because I kept teleporting in with Vergil against his Phoenix Wright. Normally that's no big deal, but today he told me he's done with fighters.
So my question is, what can I do or say to convince someone not to quit playing a game?

If he wants to quit, let him quit. especially if he doesn't listen to your advice. AND he's playing that P.Wright? oh, he's got to quit. He needs to really play easier characters if he isn't all that good at fighting games. But if he doesn't have the motivation. Don't bother. ESPECIALLY if he's going to shaft any help you're giving him. In my experience, don't waste your time. Somebody who plays the game often and has stories to tell you about their ordeals and situations and proud-moments- those are the dedicated ones. But if somebody just takes a beating from you and hardly follows advice, they aren't worth your time.
But like I said, if he ain't got motivation, don't push it on him. FGs aren't for everyone. Might I suggest boom boom rocket?

That is right Snake still has some fight in him although with how MGS4 ended it may not be him but seeing is on a PlayStation magazine chances are is with Snake could be after MGS4 but Kojima said that game was the end in the story line so perhaps somewhere in between hmm . . . . . . GOD SO HYPE
Snake confirmed for the next Smash game >.<

It probably makes more sense if you watch the clip but it's from an anime about ordinary high school kidz but then **** hits the fan and zombies start taking over I should also mention I originally got the quote from the Japanese sub even though it got translated almost the same <(^.^<)
We should be there around 12 or so.
