Portland Kombat, Portland Oregon's Bi-Weekly

[t!MmY]

Well, duh, Kirby is an uber Mario clone. But I like how you don't fall into pits and die all the time.

 

[joshisrad]

No nononono none of these games are clones of another! Completely different engines, to start. And you just fall in pits cause you suck not to mention both mario and kirby have plenty of pits.

 

[Kami-V]

I'll participate in this... where in portland and when will slightly depend on how often I'll make it, but the fact that its in portland already makes it very convenient for me.

 

[T0MMY]

Yup, just one of many reasons.

Edit: Sorry, I think we really are getting off topic now. If there's a Mario vs. Sonic tangent, we should just take it to OSM.

Oh sure, just take all the spam topics in all the threads in this entire site and move it over to the OSM thread. Sheesh.

On topic of the off-topic topic... ever notice how if you don't like something someone else likes they automatically assume you know nothing about it?
Just accept not everyone likes Sonic games and move on with important aspects of life, such as safety and happiness. Maybe my opinion on Sonic games will change over the course of many years as I have some kind of 16-bit epiphany and turn my wayward soul to main Sonic for Brawl. But most likely I'll probably just shrug an apathetic shoulder towards it.

Just to admit, there are plenty of Mario, Zelda, and Metroid games that aren't very entertaining as well. As well as every Halo game.

I know that not everyone likes Sonic games. But whoever it was that posted initially made it clear they hadn't played enough of the games to actually know what they were talking about when they said that Sonic moves slowly in his games, and that he moves faster in Brawl.

I think we're all pretty well off in the safety and happiness department. Saying move on and focus on those doesn't make sense to say on a video game forum XD

Also Oregon = spam, no matter where you go.

Whether or not Sonic "moves fast" is at an individual's discretion. And moving fast does not make a good game anyway, so it's a moot point.

Are you sure about the safety part? O_O

Also Oregon = spam, no matter where you go.

But mostly OSM (shakes fist)

 

[joshisrad]

You're missing the point. If you think that he moves faster in Brawl then you're clearly mistaken.

And yes I'm sure about the safety part O_o

Bean Machine!

Right, which is why it's so appalling that you're missing the real point.

Claiming to dislike a series of games having only played what is effectively a spinoff (in that it's a complete departure from what made the series good) and is arguably the worst in the series is pretty ridiculous.

 

[maximus]

So long as this is an ongoing gig, I'll definitely be able to come at least once.

And, I guess you didn't read the posts about playing the games firsthand and not liking them.

If someone said a game I liked was terrible, I'd pretty much just shrug and forget about it. Sonic fans are like Shakespeare geeks, they just can't let me honestly say I dislike their choice of entertainment.

Actually... I'm not particularly passionate about Sonic games. I can't think of one that would make my top 10. I'm just arguing for the sake of arguing. We could be arguing about Jell-o for all I care.

I'm so bored.

 

[Climax11]

So uh...anyone actually getting together and playing in portland? I think I might have missed it.

 

[t!MmY]

I'd like to make it to the next Portland thingy. When is it?

Edit:
I'll be bringing the Brawl demo that I stole'd.

 

[joshisrad]

"Sonic fans are like Shakespeare geeks, they just can't let me honestly say I dislike their choice of entertainment."

Oh hasty generalizations.
Tommy, don't be ridiculous.

It started with one of you saying all the other Sonic games are slow, and that Brawl is the fastest thing he's in. I knew that was stupid. Then one of you said that the Genesis has no good games. Also stupid. I don't give a **** if you don't like the Sonic games.

 

[Climax11]

People sure don't let things go around here.

Nah, just josh.

 

[joshisrad]

As if.

 

[Digital Watches]

As if.

Calm down.

 

[joshisrad]

**** YOU DIGITAL WATCHES, **** YOU AND YOUR GUILTY GEAR XXX AND SFC5 AND YOUR ANALOG CLOCKS, I BET YOU KNOW WHAT I BET I KNOW WHY YOU PLAY GUILTY GEAR IS CAUSE YOU FEEL SO GUILTY FOR BEING A NANCY **** YOU **** **** ***** *** **** **** TAINT **** ******* *****. ya.

 

[Balloon]

Whoa josh 4serios ru on sumpthin/?

 

[joshisrad]

[Climax11]

seriously? or do I not get your sense of humor...

 

[Ronin686]

seriously? or do I not get your sense of humor...

Both .

 

[Jem.]

So.. are all of you coming to Gameclucks or atleast Dan 2? Dan 2 PC Chris is coming, and Mew2King is unconfirmed.

Considering I won doubles at SF:E and got no profit from it, and a whopping 16 people in singles

 

[Ronin686]

Mabes .

 

[Peach Masta]

I am planning on going to the DAN just because PC Chris is going to be there and I would like to meet him

 

[Climax11]

I thought gameclucks already happened?
When's Dan 2?

 

[joshisrad]

Jem how did you not profit from doubles? And is Jem your real name O_o

but yeah I'm hoping to go to Dan.

 

[Balloon]

All the money that was won in doubles I'm sure went to gas costs due to James' retardedness.

 

[Jem.]

Well, I rode with Jamie, not James.
But yeah, my $30 from doubles had to go to gas. And I put in $10 for Crews and got destroyed.. And failed to place in Singles.

And no, Jem isn't my real name. My real name is Jeremy. But my two best friends who used to play in 04 and I were at their house and I needed a smash name that would fit, and Jem sounded cool and was taken from my name. I am aware that Jem is a 70's cartoon, and a singer now, but I should have rights to it.

 

[Binx]

You left out that Jem is a 70's semi barbie spin off. Anyways tourney at my house, 27th sat starting @ noon.

 

[maximus]

Hey Binx, do you think you'll be able to host another tourney in late November?

 

[Peach Masta]

If he doesn't John that tournament into not happening (haha sorry Binx I just figured Minh or Jayce would have said it first so I decided to say it)

 

[Binx]

I just didn't feel like playing that day, I had other crap I really wanted to do, I bought cloths, looked at some beds, my GF was teaching me to drive, I had TONS of fun that weekend and I don't regret not going.

I'm not quitting smash or anything and I still want to improve but I would like to spend my time on other important things as well, and driving 2 hours to eugene just didn't feel worth it you know?

Anyways there will be a tourney this weekend, as for november, it depends if I agree to host a tournament at my house you can bet that it won't be canceled unless no one shows up.

 

[SkyeYuki]

Man I'd love to come to this. There's no Smashers near me.


Curse you overly protective Christian Evangelistic parents.

I think you missed the point of what I was saying. I know you didn't ride with James .

 

[Jem.]

All the money that was won in doubles I'm sure went to gas costs due to James' retardedness.

James retardness had nothing to do with my having to put my doubles winnings into Gas.. He didnt ride with us or anything.. I'm kind of confused. If I didnt put in my $30, Shane or Cat Physician would have had to put in more money, which would have made me feel bad.

But yeah, come to WA *****es

 

[jankerrific]

binx, all of those things could have been done ANY other day. even the next day. probably today when you would be off work.

guess how often sf:e is. did you make plans to be there?
i wouldnt bank on saturday ptown, something is going to come up.

yuppppppp. just remember the fuzz dont except johns for driving without a permit/insurance.

 

[cmin]

yeah a 2 hour car ride does sound pretty bad.. good thing you went driving with your gf for 2 hours instead =0 johzn
