Cam, are you still going to Game Gal?

And Duchock, it is not easier to just head northeast from b'ham to Chattanooga, and skip Huntsville?
I don't know. No one seems to want to go. I'll give you an answer in the next couple of days. I'll see if some Hville or Madison people want to go. If not, then I'm not going.

Nah, I can get a job and crap real easy in Lillian and I have family there.

Plus, I'd still be super close to PCola :).

I'd drive to Montgomery if a tournament was hosted there (it's only like 3 hours). They ever happen?

So shaSLAM, you definitely won't be able to make LasT? I don't want to put you in a pool if you're not going to be there.

I consider driving past huntsville the same as driving to huntsville. It is out of the way to drive through Huntsville, yeah. I was just trying to say it's about 4 hours to game galaxy... probably longer though.

None taken. Laser Tag does have its own arcade, but most of the stuff in there is kinda stupid. The only thing I play is the Pump It Up NX2, which is in great condition. I think it has MvC2, a Galaga/Mrs. Pac-man combo, Time Crisis 3 & 4, and the other things are even less important.

o neat! I didn't even know what the venue was. PIU is good enough to make up for any arcade's sub-prime nature.

What is pump it up and can I get into it if I've only played DDR? I'm definitely on the Time Crisis 3, tho.

Pools are up btw. My toughest fights there seem to be PhantomX and BadNewsBear.

Pump it Up is DDR with 5 arrows. <--- layman's terms.

Instead of cardinal arrows, they're instead diagonal and one in the middle. It requires a lot more moving around and you can twist an ankle and fall down if you don't know what you're doing. Where DDR is developed by Konami, a Japanese company, PIU is developed by a Korean company. So you see a lot of Korean influences and plenty of k-pop music.

You can pick up pretty much any DDR song and dance well to it when you are good at playing it. With PIU, it's kinda tougher to pick up any song and play well without knowing what's coming up next imo.

Haha, yeah. The machine at Laser Tag is an NX2, so you have to watch out for stuff like Chimera and Final Audition 2-2. Not to mention the remixes... Sadly, Pump Me Amadeus was removed (for the most part) from NX2.

I think the biggest thing in going from DDR to Pump is getting your balance right. You really have to move from the back of the pad to the front and side to side, so you can't really keep your center of balance in on spot as easily. But if you've played DDR, you can probably pick up on it quickly enough. And lucky for everyone, there's a bar, which is wonderfully helpful.

I tried picking up PIU after being good at most Heavy songs in DDR. Normal mode was somewhat overwhelming (and that's the equivalent of Light mode for DDR). The body movement and reading is much different, so it's not as easy to get into as it sounds.

Also, I'm all about some Time Crisis. Let's go through 3 and 4 together.

Alright, I'll try it out.

And hell yeah. I haven't beaten 4 but I run through 3 like candy.

's good to hear. You're not the only one; I've played through it a million times, too.

I only went through Time Crisis 4 one time. The cutscenes are so hilariously bad. Captain Rush is the most American soldier ever.

In a really-early firefight that takes place in a small hallway, he RUNS OUT AND MELEE ATTACKS a guy, just because he can.

He also has an unlimited supply of special ammo, it seems.

not to mention the cheesy dialog during stage 2 boss! I've played it every time i randomly go to a mall bored as hell and beat it in one shot (5-6 times already) and always nailing 1st place high score on most machines i've played on. we should do co-op the next time there's a machine aroudn and you're in FL.

video of stupid dialog in stage 2 boss from me (with rapid gun clicking): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HhGarTt2xs (high score on that run was
