Northern Ranking Battles (beat-em-ups)

[TheShend]

I know a few of a few northern gents and chavs (Dave JOKE :P ), read on!

Right Gentlemen if you play beat em ups, 2D or 3D, maybe even like watching those video's i link and also live in the UK, then may I turn your attention to rankingbattles-uk.

Now, the point I want to mention is that this site currently caters for primarily for the London scene which has over the last few years moved to hosting and recording their own Ranking Battles (RanBat) like those seen in the U.S, Japan, Australia etc. and the results show as the standard of play is pretty great.

Now there is talk of a northern event, most likely manchester, to accomodate those who don't wish to travel darrn sarf for a slap fix. So, if you'd like to see this happen, to attend and participate/watch etc then you can either take yourself to the site in the above link and say so or mention it here and i'll copy and link the posts over there myself. ideally they want to know who would realistically attend and what titles you'd like to ruck on.

This is a great oppotunity to re-start something of the competitive arcade of days gone by and build a greater community catering to the north.

Maybe then we'll see a Reet Grim North vs Da Soft Sarf grudge matches!!! Regional kick-off ahoy!

Ta.

Nice one Shend, much more conveniant for most of us to get to Manchester than London, ill post on RB later when I get back home.

Just been trying to learn how to play on an arcade stick, and I guess this event couldnt of come soon enough for me to get some proper practice against players. Still not as good as I was on pad imo, but its all about practice. >_<;

Aye Number 112, as Mr Crisp says it Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike. The organiser is open to as many suggestions for other beat em ups 2D and 3D to play as well, it's just that the biggest community is based around 3S tis all. Though i'm sure some of you GG freaks and VF crazies and Tekken mad boys would like to kick off just as much :P

Aye singho, tis a reet gud way to improve your fighting game on teh schtick, god knows i need it >_<

Anyway, even if you don't play the blasted things or just casually there's nowt better to get down and join in, even though it's a fighting game tourney it's still a very friendly group, so don't be intimidated by the jargon or skill entry etc. Just get down and have a laugh.

Come on you northern monkeys, sort it man!!

I'll register.

The more games the better as I play bloody everything, and don't really excel in any. Throw me in with a bunch of 3S heads and I'm buggad.

Just using this as a tool to hook up with some like-minded men.
