Losing to the Japanese kids each and every time.

Seeing kids get mad when they were losing (I remember when this one kid called Chun Li a "fukking slut" with so much passion I nearly died laughing) and committing vandalism on the machine

I say that shyt all the time that SF2 changed everything. Championship edition really blew the door off the hinges. I mean being the nicest nikka around on that game was Godly. No different than being the nicest nikka on the basketball court. It was instant respect and as a result we took that shyt seriously. Had to work your way up before you went at it with the big boys. Nicest nikkas on street fighter could pull triple and quadruple combos, even tho the game didn’t allow it. shyt was crazy.
Man we used to run Street fighter 2 like we were in the Juice movie lol! Shoutout to Smoot’s corner store(may he Rest In Peace)

Nothing beats the face to face competition.

Putting your quarter up :wow:

The crowds surrounding you when you had a streak going :blessed:

If you talk shyt you better be able to back it up, this isn't online play :ufdup:

I remember in college this Korean dude used to destroy everybody in Tekken 3, I NEVER beat him.

Then I caught him slipping on Soul Blade.. Proceeded to wash him with Sophitia :myman: and that fool never played the game again lol
