    anyways sorry for breaking the gaming gathering cardinal rule and bringing a woman but it's hard to say no when she's buying you a new arcade stick.

    I felt bad because she looked really bored. Like how when you're a kid and your mum takes you to see her best friend, and they sit and talk away about shite you have no interest in.

    should've brought mario party with you.

    Got to stop being so fussy about seats man. Didn't know she paid for the sticks! (So not right)

    I'm a very fussy person.

    Especially when people use shifty vibrating pads.

    Ken's SA3 is too good!

    Saw you comments on the Real Arcade Pro stick on the other thread. Would I be rude in asking how much that set you back? Looks like a cracking stick, make sure you post some comments when you get it......

    Btw, I'm off from the 16th for a week. We're still trying to think of something to do, but in the event we stay in Edinburgh I'll be up for the Wednesday session.

    you could help me move out...

    Move to where/when? If I'm around that week I'd be happy to help out.

    We're still trying to get away somewhere but the promise of inexpensive "last-minute" internet deals to far-flung places seems an empty one. It's all lies.

    You guys going to any of those International Games Festival screenings at the Odeon? These is an Xbox Live one on Thursday 1900-2200. Apparently there is going to be a mini competition of Edinburgh vs. Glasgow. The tickets are actually free for this one. Anyone want to come along? Otherwise I'll have to go with Alex. /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif

    im pretty sure graeme will be working and i simply cant be bothered /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    graeme came to mines for some vf today and probably won more than me, I'm blaming it competely on the fact he got to use the good stick.

    Ah, you've got it already. So did you get taxed by custom? Looks shockingly heavy! (Literally)

    Re: edinburgh VF

    the customs tax tends to come about three weeks later but im almost certian its going to happen.

    The stick is really good, but im possibly biased as I spent 70 pound on it. Graeme can probably give youa more objective opinion

    Customs hit me on my Hori stick on delivery. Had to drive to some depo and pay them cash before they'd hand the package over.

    As i recall I was able to claim back about £10 via UPS. They sent me a cheque a week or so later.

    it's pretty shit tbh, I think you should just pass it back to me and I'll make sure you never have to touch it's shiny silver ass again.

    In all seriousness though, the actual stick feels a little bit stiff. The buttons feel really good and the base of it is rather comfy despite it's size, it's less fiddly than trying to fit a Evo or SC2 stick on your legs. But yeah...9/10. Better than anything else we've got.

    yeah, there should be VF on wednesday. Might be the last in my current abode...

    I'll keep you updated, but I'm pretty sure there will be.
