How is the quake live scene? Last time i heard it was 600 odd players world wide at even peak times? this is pretty bad :(

What do you all play these days?

I have been on Destiny and now that its dried up I am looking for something to get back into fps pc gaming.

Do not say overwatch.

lol

Okay so after much thought and review reading i finally got my hands on an Madcatz tournament edition fight stick.

I can honestly say it is really nice to use.... Except i suck just now

Does anyone have any pointers on how to practice with one?

as i am having trouble even pulling a double hadoken engaged ultra. I am a home grown SF legend with no experience in arcades.

also when do buffer the charge for chun li's focus attack to ultra? can't seem to nail that one at all

Okay so I am known for throwing every excuse under the sun at a player after i lose in a duel.

I thought I’d share most of my excuses with the world as no one would go un-aided in the world of playing games online.

I am sure you can change the tenses so u can throw them out at an end of a match or even before the /ready :P

Feel free to add some of your own to the list :D

No one has the excuse for having no excuse lined up for when they lose from this day forward.

Someone could add lan ones as i wasn't leet /geeky enough to attend one ;P

I have heard good things about the mx518 and the g5....

My i.e 3.0A manages to stop working now and again due to me mucking about with the polling rate.... Warning i.e 3.0A users :P
The one i got from softpedia that changes hz managed to fuck up my mouse.

So my question to you lot is....

g5 or mx518??

There is questionable build quality for the g5 though.... also the g5 seems to be overpriced in the places i have looked.

Or just get another i.e 3.0A. Trouble is i have looked and can't find the exact silver slimline 5 button one that i have been using. The ones on ebay appear to have chunky forward and back buttons...

What does the Q4 logo look like?

Has it been released yet?

Post your attempts here :)

well?

Seems a bit silly.

What game to become pro at?

i have the whole summer to try to be good at one game.

pick one :P

i was reserching pro gaming for a report i have to designing a new mouse for professional gamers...

original i know ;)

anyway this is a nice link for all you people wanting to get to know the scene better

fata said here that he practiced 12 hours a day at quake 3?

To come up with a completely original name for me, i have thought long and hard...... and came up with not much
