Good work Tom, glad you all had a good one. If it's happening again I reckon I'm gonna make my way down London town for it. SFII FTW!

I bet Tom trembles at the prospect of Raging Paul stealing his crown!

Do a Tekken one you dirty bitchanos!

God, I really can't be bothered to relearn all those 10-hit combos and stupid multiparts.

I'd tank everyone at Virtua Fighter IV if I were the only one allowed to go Kage-Maru.

SINYOURATARIN!

Thanks to the utter gashness of National Express taking 5 bloody hours to get me and John down to London we turned up at the pub to find it firmly locked and bolted and everyone buggered off(i've only just got your pm with your mobile number rik so that's why i didn't call ya, now i have it though i can send you rude texts or even give it to Iain if i'm feeling mischievous lol) no surprises with Tom winning though as i said to Jamie when i bumped into him at the gig later on.

Next time we'll bloody well drive and get there in time!!!!

HEY EVERYBODY.ive literally just got home after 2 crazy consecutive thrash related days in london.

firstly a big thanks for everybody who came down and for all your participation/comments on here.it was greatly appreciated.

the prickhead owner cut the time from 5pm to 3pm so apologies to the other 4people who made it down between 3 and 5.

anyway,a good little pre-gig event/get together overall.
well done to Tom the victorious!
Faraz the resident button basher was a dark horse,it was like bison was a dirty footballer with the amount of sliding going on.
thanks to Torso for capturing some pics/footage.
thanks again to you all.
i'll eventually put my camera stuff on here too when i grow another braincell.

after the tournament we had plenty of time to spare,so as the weather was great what better way to spend the day drinking some off licence tins and watering the plants in a graveyard.

then of course the mighty sabbat gig,with equally pleasing support from gama bomb.

then i had another hectic but 100% equally awesomly enjoyable day yesterday daytime and at last nights gig/this mornings afterparty.

think i better post on the gigs section.....to be continued.

footage/pics of this event coming soon...ish!

Rich mate, you need to upload the footage of the final, my sheer look of disgust at the end of it after my awful performance is just hilarious!

Did you play as Ryu? Hadouken's overrated, it's all about Shoryuken. And Ken's better, his moves are that little bit faster (although his Tetsumaki Senpuukyaku's a bit shorter).

Was looking up Street Fighter IV. Really not sure what to think about it, the artwork for it kicks ass but the gameplay looks too much like Tekken/Soul Calibur.

Ken does the double shoulder roll too and I think Ryu might also have a bit more reach. God I'm a nerd.

Considering they're easily the best fighting games, that's not a bad thing.

Behold the footage of the finalists battling it out for the top spot!

Haha, epic battle! Well done, Tom.

hurrah at last,luckily my camera had a resize option on the menu!

Haha, it proper looks like I'm about to burst into tears at the end.

Brilliant stuff.
