Did u lot know that jeffry was called dural back in theday?

i'll post asceen shot later

 

jacky was called jackie
lau was called yao and kage was called soming like yumigi?

 

Yeah, post that screenshot, otherwise don't do like 10 posts in this thread when you could have done 1 big post with screenshots /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Also check your facts...
Jacky was Jackey, not Jackie.
Jeffry was Jefer, not Dural.
Kage was called Yagyu very early on (I don't have a screenshot of it, it's been
one of my #vftrivia questions though)
Sarah was Sara.

 

Urgh, and to think we used to marvel at the "realism of the 3D effect" back then......

Now it's just painful to my eyes.

 

I'd assume Lau vs. Yao might be people at AM2 fighting about romanizing a Chinese name. How many different spellings of Mao Tse Tung have you seen?

Maybe someone w/ Chinese background can elaborate.

 

On some of the VF 1 cabinets where the list of chars. were, Akira had some desert rag (Don't know the name for it) on his head and I think his name was Sheba or something like that. Was this an early Akira? I have a pic if anyone wants to see.

Urm those pics are from early builds with the characters shown at different polygon levels ranging from 200 to 1500(I think) polygons per chara

 

Heh good old Shiba was used in Fighters Megamix, omited chara with a sword.

 

I was talking about the VF1 days of "my arm is made of two rectangles and a triangle" in general.

 

Hey, look at the other polygon-based games at the time. Try playing SNES Starfox again. Urgh.

Three triangles = ship

I have VF beta images floating around the ol' HD, lemme try and dig them up.

 

ur right about sara but im sure my facts are right bout the rest i'll get 2 a scanner later

 

Well it still is better than playing with only the wires /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

My first 3d game was with wires only.

edit: for those who can't see the geocities link, you can see it here.

 

Does that mean Jeffry is Kage's mother? /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

who knew? also is he from the carabian or oz?

 

I'll see it when geoshities lets it be seen again.

 

oops, remote linking to geocities images isn't allowed.

Using a different referrer I was able to see the image. My buddy mr. bungle had seen this image and had some information on it, so I'm hoping he'll hop in and explain what's up with this. I'd be willing to bet the "dural" was a mistake from some copy editor or press person and not something actually done in the game, but I could be wrong.
