    Evo has arrived for the past 3 days n we have been evoing non stop since Monday.

    For those that wanna play..it's at the small arcade along russell Street in the City.

    Come join the fun.

    Oh man....

    Rulakir...there is nothing in Perth (sorry eagles!)

    Plus...for VFing...apart from sydney n melbourne..
    never heard abt players from other states.

    Our arcade scene is very healthy now too

    I did a head count...around 20 plus VFers

    with abt 10 knowing what they are doing!
    (look at me, trying to recruit ppl haha!)

    But seriously speaking, I suppose...it all depends on what course u're doing though.

    Anyway..Gerald, PM me n I'll be happy to check out the course details for u.

    And seriously speaking (again) lotsa my friends have been to perth for studies n almost all of them ended up transferring to either Melbourne or Sydney.

    Anyway, PM me n we'll catch up lah~

    The boards are imported from Japan/Asia, right?

    HK to be specific

    Greedy boss has a tendency to import 'hit' HK games.

    Thing is, I haven't tried to apply for RMIT, and apparently, they have no entry for 2nd Semester, 2003. /versus/images/icons/frown.gif Got entry into Monash and Sydney Uni, but the courses I got ain't exacty something thats a "professional" degree... /versus/images/icons/frown.gif Oh well....

    Not to mention that I have a really big credit difference if I go to Perth instead of Melbourne or Sydney..... /versus/images/icons/laugh.gif

    Decisions decisions.... /versus/images/icons/confused.gif Argh... the temptation.... /versus/images/icons/frown.gif

    What days / times are people generally there, and playing?
    (or at which other arcades do people regularly play?)

    I'd like to know where in Melbourne the Evo action is at /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    sorry

    to my best knowledge...melbourne arcades no longer have evo.

    Since me n my japanese friends have all 'up up n away'...while others have moved on to greener stuff...

    I do not think it is possible to establish another scene.

    However, if u r still interested in playing Evo...PM me on this board n I shall hook u up with a very old sparring partner( n a rather good friend too, bit quiet if u don't know him at first though ^0^).

    I'm sure I can arrange something.

    Only if u're still interested, that is.

    Damn, that sucks. /versus/images/graemlins/frown.gif

    I discovered VF quite late.. got VF4 for PS2 a few months before Evo was released for the PS2, then got that.

    I've been playing with a friend of mine, but I was hoping to find somewhere with a bunch of different players. Ah well.

    .. maybe I'll have to take a trip up to sydney some time.. heh.

    yeah...if u want a healthy dose of VF..ps2 or sydney is the way to go.

    Or, u can start another VF scene...take over what I did yrs ago.

    Back then in VF3, console was the way to go baby.

    The issue here is being able to find a collective lot that is willing to travel.

    U know how big ass our country is ^^
    Back then, a friend of mine used to complain
    ' i don't wanna play this weekend..collingwood fans on train...ack!' ^0^
