Competition Worthy Games

[TriniXaeno]

I'm looking for an informal list of what games you think are "current" competition worthy titles on the local scene?

Two categories, 1v1 and Team.

The next step will be "who do you think" are the greatest players in said games. So start having a think about that one time. Drop some names with your submission if you've already got a clue who the killers are in the respective title.

I'll start with the obvious:

1V1:
~~

Tekken 5 DR PS3 (Exodus, Bryan Master, Graeme, Analyst, Tao, Ras)
Smash Brothers Brawl Wii
Soul Calibur 4 PS3 (Graeme, Teknoman, Imperial_X, Bankai)

TEAM:
~~~
COD 4
DOTA

*cough* at that forward for techno man in calibur cough cough coughhhhhh

[rb]

Sheppard has surpassed all of the names mentioned for Tekken. His progress has really been amazing and does live up to the name Analyst. Don't sleep on Whiplash either.

[TriniXaeno]

Ras and Putao as well for Tekken.

Washington has a mean Mitsurugi in Soul Calibur too, goes by the name Bankai nowadays.

Keep it coming.

left for dead, gr8 fun....

cod 5 (not as popular as cod 4 by any level though)

Dawn of war still popular, and dow 2 on the horizon...

cod 5 (not as popular as cod 4 by any level though)

Dawn of war still popular, and dow 2 on the horizon...

I think you mean COD WaW

[whiplash]

tnkx rb.. Based on character knowledge,punishment,strats and defence i would say in no order:
1.Graem
2.Speppard
3.dont have n e 3rd(sorry)

There is lots of potential for trinidad in tekken but most ppl dont wanna learn the game(all aspects),they just wanna play.

[rb]

The thing with sheppard is that he doesn't put out anymore than he has to which becomes truly evident in a tournament scenario. Outside of tech wars has he really lost any tournament he entered in the last 2 years ?

[whiplash]

if a guy is at level 3, shepp has to play at level 4 to win...That doesnt mean he has reached level 10.... or n e body in trinidad for that matter..I not taking n e thing away from shepp eh.

[ViCe]

trinidad need more team based tourneys
every tourney i participated in or went to in the past were all fighting games and sports games ( not saying they are not good jus sayin das d only kind of big tourneys u ever see in trinidad)

This list is games that are out now or coming out later this year dat i think would make good competition worthy games

1v1
Street Fighter 4
Tekken
Tatsunoko vs Capcom
FIFA
Smash Bros

Team
Cod:MW2 (W@W is not as good as MW)
Killzone 2
Halo 3
Gears 2
Resistance 2
Rainbow 6 Vegas 2
MGO
SOCOM

blu vice i don't think you should leave out a game Cod: WaW because of an opinion you have of the game.

I do agree with you suggestions of these games being included. I hear whispers of tournaments but I don't see anything happening. Either they are non-existent, are kept within the ranks of long time gatters or not properly publicized.

This can be seen by that fact the above posters naming men/women who they think a best in a game. I for one have never heard or seen these people play but I'm pretty sure I have a guy that can beat them all.

[Crixx_Creww]

lol @ yu have a guy who can beat them all?
so then its YOU who needs to come out of the shadows more
cause the names we call, we dont call them out of obscurity, these men have been tried and tested over and over very publicly and some internationally. I use men here too because not since the likes of rabid panda have we been able to hoist a female up to ungodly status.

[chinarakinda]

@ crix crew, I wasn't talking about me personally, although I've beaten many a guy in soul calibur 3 in Trincity Mall. I was talking about I know someone who could beat those guys or give serious competition.

Also I wasn't saying they're not good or worthy of your mentions but to highlight the fact the new people to gatt could feel kind of left out because these tournaments not publicized enough so we could participate or see these guys play.

I would love to see them play. I never see anyone good at Soul Calibur in the mall. I keep repeating soul calibur cause that is the only game you all mention that I play.

[Crixx_Creww]

oh ok
well calibur has its following, iam a die hardcore fan but i dont get to compete or anything to busy
BUT i still know who and where teh competition lies, i guess its cause ive been around long enuff to.

I not saying its newbies fault they dont know who the greats are... but i AM putting the screws to the "i know someone who could beat the people alyuh mentioning" thing cause my self and the others veterans have seen and heard the claims and have watched the upstarts crash and burn and i think our stance is a good one, because it sifts through the chaff and finds the real gems. We have seen men come out of obscurity and shine but its rare and heat and pressure are needed to make diamonds so, MAS FUEGO!!!

yur not likely to find real competition in trincity arcade randomly unless imperial or myself are there that day.

like ive randomly bounced up imperial in trincity and strangely enough airport arcade
and quietly weve played xmen tekken and soul calibur
cause those are really the only arcade games i play, unless kof 98 and the last blade 2 are there
but i wouldnt mind playing yu in any calibur once the controls are working and i can pick sophitia if i see fit.

[TriniXaeno]

soul calibur is boss. I'm not sure if playing it at an arcade is really relevant anymore given the number of consoles on the landscape.

Still think Soul Calibur 2 was perfect. Three and four didn't quite hit the spot but I run amok in four with Shura and Taki, personally. lol

You have been promised a beating China, which I hope to deliver on sometime soon. If you can blaze me, then we will arrange for some of the killers to take a bite.

You're on Xbox 360 right?

[Imperial_X]

Wow...I haven't been on here in ages.  I'll try to dust the cobwebs off of this account a little more regularly.

On to business then.  Well said laertes.  I couldn't agree more.  As much as I disliked SC3 for numerous reasons, I picked it up because people in Trinicity mall were playing it.  I go where the competition is generally.  It just so happens that Astaroth is god in that game so it made the experience more tolerable.  Still, it wasn't as horrible as some of the times I've had playing Tekken though.

Who's this Chinarakinda person?  I play at Trinicity from time to time.  If you'd like to play SC 1-3 we could arrange something but as with my experience, it's the hardest thing to get people to come out of their hiding places to come play.  Make sure to bring your friend too if you decide to make the outing.  Send me a private msg so we can coordinate timing and all that if you still give one enough to come out from behind your pc screen.

In Fighting game related news, I found Prez on psn.  Seems he plays hd remix with some of the online top dogs. 

Oh yea, if anyone here is on PSN and wants to go at it in SC4 and HD Remix my PSN Handle is Imperial_X

[chinarakinda]

yeah NGW i'm on xbox 360. Does the online lag for you?

I'm akini's sister, he says he knows you. A short guy with glasses. He mainly plays Yoshimitsu.
You want to arrange a meeting in arcade or console- gatt location?

[Eroo]

Oh yea, if anyone here is on PSN and wants to go at it in SC4 and HD Remix my PSN Handle is Imperial_X

I'd love to go at it on HD Remix but I can't seem to play against anyone on my friends list, only by randomly joining a game on the internet. Have you suceesfully got it working with ppl on your list?

[hotnikkelz]

Hey all Akini here, chinarakinda is my sister. I was the guy she's referring to...if you all want to play Soul calibur, hit me up. I'm not interested in weaklings....so your mouths better reflect your gameplay or i'd be dissapointed.
It doesn't matter which of the series you want to play by the way although i only play SC4 now.

[Crixx_Creww]

lol

typical gunz talk lol
is like nonames does read a manual on how to be obnoxious and ensure a beat down sigh

just once, a humble challenger with skills to back it up would be nice

like was stated, yu have me ngw and imperial to play if yu so desire in calibur
if yu play anything else let us know.
