Thanks for sharing the pictures, folks. If there are more, well, post 'em! Also, since I only recognize a handful of folks from the pictures, could someone help match faces with names?

For starters...the SONIC SPIKE tournament... I see BlueBMW sittin' on the floor. Ha! That's the extent of my knowledge, ha!

thats turbob star!


That's a ME!



From what I can remember, the dude with his back to the camera in the back is Ope playin' Neo Geo with CDamm.  Backwards cap guy on the couch is none other than our own Hizaygizanazay, who happened to win the Sonic Spike Beach Volley Ball World Championships with my friend Loong!  :D  I believe Bardoly is the dude standing playing Bloody Wolf. Also from what I recall, Bardoly said he had yet to play Bloody Wolf and I looked at him like he just said "Super Mario, sounds fun!  How do you play it?".    o.O

Good times.  I'm gonna work on that video tonight and hopefully have a link up super soon.  :)

Seems like this was a cool event. Too far for me to travel from the Northwest, but if I ever had the time and cash to make a trip I'd be down.

Except that's not Beemer LOL


Hahahzhahahahhahhaha. All the white, bearded suburban PCE fans look the same to me!

But, yes, thank you, that is TurboStar (I should have known this from...wait, TurboStar = joshua? Holy crap I'm confusing all the bearded white dudes).

Hopefully, beemer won't be offended by my poor skills at identification...

Thanks for the scoop. Of course, that means that 90% of the folks in this photo remain a mystery! Ha!

Now, as far as Bloody Wolf is concerned...I CONCUR 100%. I love me some Bloody Wolf, and since PCE got the only console port, Bardoly was in for a treat. NEVER PLAYED BLOODY WOLF? Surely, you're joking Mr. Feynman...

Esteban, you should run for office!  A couple slips like "all white people look the same" will make the campaign a lot of fun!

Though, it is pretty true that people unlike those you normally hang out with do all kinda blend, but this politically correct world might night agree with that statement.

Turbofest looks like a blast btw.

Ha.  All white people look alike.  That's what I was thinking when he said that too.

Hey, I finally got to that vid of the show-


Not too happy with the quality, it's just been uploaded so maybe it will look better when it's fully uploaded....?  I dunno...
The added Shockman music is too loud at the beginning, but it's just Majors talking about how awesome the Neo Geo is anyway... :P

meh, I'm going to sleep now, let me know what ya think!!  :D

Ha! So that's Majors . He's playing Nam '75, from the short glimpse of the scene. I haven't watched more than a few seconds of the video yet. So far this is infinitely better than the very shaky/blurry/haphazard videos that are usually posted.

FEEDBACK ON VIDEO: (Pending...)

UPDATE: All right, after pouring some coffee and settling down I watched the video. Here is my stream-of-consciousness reaction...

* I stand by my initial judgement--this was not the shaky/dizzying/blurfest that most videos excel in. BRAVO.
* I was able to recognize a handful of folks in the video...Chany? ROTFLtlfjfljkdlfl? mathius & partner.
* I didn't think that it was possible, but the Sonic Spike Championship wasn't lame. It actually looked fun. I would have loved to be there just for Sonic Spike (I don't think I've played this game for more than a few minutes).
* I started guessing names to faces in the video, EVEN THOUGH I KNOW BETTER (not everyone in video is necessarily a member here). THAT SAID, I have already anointed the folks in the video with monikers from pcefx.com forums.

I WAS SAYING THAT! It's a damn shame, too. Nerdy, white late-20's - 30's dudes look the same to me. All you white people look the same, goddammit. I'm a Levianthanite, myself.

You did a super job editing that video, Josh!

For those wondering, Ash and me are the two messing with Beemer's X68000 back behind Majors.

Great video Josh.  I think you captured a lot of different aspects of the day very well.

Thanks for sharing man. Just brings me tears of joy seeing all those smiley faces playing some turbobs.

I'm gonna be pissed if I don't get the job in savannah Georgia because I missed the turbofest for the interview.

And I finaly got a credit roll thanks to Unibios unlimitied men* cheat. I've been playing that game since it came out and never beat it. The whole no continue on Dr. R. Muckly is rough.

*code will give you 9 men but if you leave the cheat on when you die, it glitches. You can pause, enable cheat, unpause giving you 9 men, then pause again, disable cheat, unpause then you will keep the 9 men.
