Milkman have you got Kaillera yet?

Wow this is such a great thread guys. God bless MW! Anyway it's good to see the SS series getting mad props here. It is my favorite series of ALL time! I bought the home carts for Neo-geo back in like 1996, after spending over $2000 in quarters at the arcade on parts 1 and 2. I then bought the arcade MVS cart for my neo 6 slot cab that picked up in Montery park from my good friend Danny. Anyway, I'm gunna breakdown a little history about SS II, since that was my most played SS game. Anybody who lives in L.A. and is familiar with the Crenshaw and Adams area, have most likely played against our crew. We, well, mainly myself and my buddy Legit. We used to frakking OWN everyone in our area!! First of all, anyone who really knows this game will tell you, it's not Ukyo who runs SSII...it's Nicotine and Earthquake! True story... I used to run players out the arcade with my Quake. I was so good...and this is the truth folks...I have no reason to bullshit you...I was actually BANNED from TWO arcades!!! One was in Westwood, and the other one at the arcade across the street from LACC college. I was actually accused of cheating from several players who reported me to the manager of the arcade. They simply couldn't figure out how I kept kicking everyone's ass with what appears to be a weak character. We'd go to arcades throughout L.A. and run crap. Anytime other players would see us coming, all you'd hear is.. "Aww frakk! Here they are again!" or "Damn...not now...aint this a bitch!!" I swear, my friend was UNfrakkINGSTOPPABLE with Nicotine! Jump towards him and you'd see his staff get crammed up your ass, while he'd throw a plethora of fire monkeys under your dress. Even the best Ukyo players will get served by a good Nicotine player. Even in my prime, my Charlottle would own the best Ukyo players across L.A. arcades. The bottom line folks...EVERY character can be mastered and be unstoppable if played correctly. I've seen incredible crap done with the likes of Earthquake, Kyoshiro and Wan-fu..I'm talking about crap that made them virtually unstoppable! Alas...the days of going to arcades and schooling scrubs are long gone! Hanging in a real arcade with spectators around you and mashing on a real Neo cab. I swear...if I was wealthy, I'd go to Japan and open my own arcade, put all my favorite games in it, and wouldn't charging anything to play! All is not lost however, as you can now play all your favorite Neo-Geo games online! For those of you who loved the old time classics arcade games like Street Fighter 2, Samurai Shodown 2, and Fatal Fury...you need to get this program called Kaillera. Kaillera allows you to play any Mame game online! I play SS I, II, III, and IV almost everday against people from all over the world!! Infact I just finished a 2 1/2 hour session of Samurai Shodown 2 against URA-AGE, and it frakking owned!. We came out about even and the guy used Wan-Fu in ways I didn't know possible, but I stayed on for two hours going back and forth taking my wins and my losses. Why? Because it was fun as hell! Neo-Geo online baby! With no lag except for 2 three second patches in nearly 2 hours of play! Everything else was smooth as butta! In game chat too! If you thought it was fun playing your neo games against the computer, well, you aint seen nothing yet...it's all about Kaillera. There's NOTHING like playing Metal Slug 3 co-op online with no lag! It's orgasmic! This is what most SNK fans want from Xdude live. Kick ass online Neo games. But alas, SNK has yet to release one on Xdude. People...If you have a PC that can run Mame, and a way to play these fighters (a pad, a stick, whatever)...you have no excuse not to go and download Kaillera and start experiencing this old school goodness! It's the closest thing to being at the arcades again.

Just got back from seeing it. I thought it was really good. Not great, but really good. The effects were mind boggling! But I must say, I was dissapointed with the fact that: Bring on "THE MATRIX: RESURRECTION" :P

Ever strange the lives we lead So detached from the things we need Signs of greed in everyone Instant eviction and the blood on a gun Just when you think you've found it Spinning world I want to spin around it What is wrong? This pain won't peel The fibres of my life won't heal

Well HAPPY BIRTHDAY buddy! How old?

Im sorry but this movie's gonna RAWK!!!

I'm going....MANYANA!!!....with...

I might looking to get a new one myself

Anyone picked up thug today? What version did you get...PS2, GameCube, Xdude? I picked up the PS2 version today because of online play and the ability to wrap your own grill around the player's face and play with him online.

$100??? What the frakk dude??? wasn't the Mos set like $39-$49 or something like that? Plus now there's a glitch on disc 4? Aint that bout a bitch! **Closes other I.E. window with DDDvd order form and puts away credit card** <_<

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE tell me you're joking! They really screwed it up like that??? I thought nothing could worse that Planet Dance/Perry Slams/Pranny Strands Basara/Boxana.... ROTFL! Honestly I want to buy these HK dvds. It's worth it just to see the "Blood" for "Energy juice" line

please please please please please please PLEASE bring this to the U.S. !!!!!!!! I'm sure it's great fun playing the import but without understanding a lick of Japanese I don't see any point in playing since I wouldn't know what the hell I'm doing. I might get it anyway though...

LOL! Just put the roms in your rom folder and voila! BTW that Macross 2 game was OK but it can't frakk with +.

That's a good point Jemster...

Alright that does it!!! **takes ALL of Abomz!!'s videogames and consoles, loads them up in the back of his truck and drives off** ...there, let's see how you manage without any games for a whole week!

Maybe it's cuz Im a big Tomo Sakurai fan

That is so mean Mylene isn't annoying she's just young and full of vigor. Can't blame a 15 year old for wanting to think they're better than the group leader. She's just the cutest little character. I can't see how anyone would want to see her to get killed in her own valk If that would've really happened I don't think I would ever recover from getting choked up.

Hi guys. Y'know, after watching Mac 7 all the way through again recently. I was beginning to question whether the original TV series is really better. I honestly think macross 7 is slightly the more entertaining series to watch. Once you get past the cornyness and the cheese, there is so much going in the animation and story. The last half of Mac 7 just has that power that draws you into the characters. Not to mention the Valkarie dogfights to me, are more frequent and better choreographed than SDF: Macross. And the villians are more diverse. Instead of nonstop walking giants, we're greeted with all kinds of different baddies with different personalities. Don't get me wrong I still love the original, I just think 7 is more entertaining for some reason. I'm too tired to elaborate further but Im sure you get the picture.

Yeah. that's the reason I don't watch it often. I get very emotional watching DYRL...being that it's my favorite movie of all time and all

It eas the Pink Peckers Squadron.... I think Ray was portrayed as being alittle Gay. Remember when Sivil had control over Akiko, and she was coming onto Ray really strong... but her completely blew her off. Actualy the same with Basara, with Rex and Akiko and he blew them off too. Yeah, gotta agree. His actions there certainly had me

Thanks 4 the info KK! How did you find this out?

Just got back. Greatest movie I've ever seen! The *ONLY* other movie that trumps it is... Scooby Doo: The Movie Questions... Wasn't Sofie Fatale played by Monica Belluci? Why wasn't she credited in the movie? What happened to the alledged cameo from Samuel L Jackson? Edited out? Who's character did Gordon Lui play? I don't remember seeing him in the film at all. Please elaborate...I have all 5 SS games and cannot figure out what you are referring to... Those people should be kidnapped, tied to their chairs and shown the last four episodes of Berserk You can thank The RZA(from former rap group The Wu-tang Clan) for that. He did the score.

Mainly 80 British rock The Cure Depeche Mode The Smiths U2 Electronic New Order Pet Shop Boys theThe The Clash Simple Minds Talking Heads Oingo Boingo ...are some of my favorite bands. Then there's anime and game soundtracks that I also like, like FFVI, Castlevania SOTN, Gundam Wing and of course Macross+. I also like some Dance/Electronica/Progressive House/Trance/Ambient suff as well. Synesthesia by Taylor is currently my all time favorite album bar none! I also enjoy breakdancing/beboy music from the 80s as well...Cybotron, Kraftwerk, Nucleus, Davy DMX, etc... There's just so much great music out there, amidst the sea of garbage being played on the radio and on MTV. You just gotta look for it

Don't use up all the vaseline at once
