Dream Job #3

s.S -> s.S -> QCF+K -> RC -> s.HS -> QCB+P -> P -> RC -> s.HS -> QCB+P -> P

This dream job can only happen if I ever get to travel back in time (if I ignore my top place/time to be if I ever get to time travel--I'll save that for a future blog post). There was a time when I wanted to write strategy guides for 2 dimensional fighting games (i.e. Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Samurai Shodown, etc.) I used to write out any and all combos I discovered, neat tricks and when that got "boring" I would then seek out and document glitches I found in games (mainly Mortal Kombat, tsk tsk Mr. Tobias).

Sadly times have changed. America doesn't want 2 dimensional games, they want Lara Croft half naked shooting a mummy, or to do guitar-karaoke to Magic Carpet Ride. So I'd be forced to write these guides in Japan. But I hate flying and don't want to learn a new language (that isn't Jawaese), so I'm stuck here doomed to complain forever...oh, and I also *quit* video games.


-a.



*= I try to find anything else to do besides play a video game (i.e. write, read, draw, re-watch LOST, Twin Peaks, etc.) When all those fail I'll dabble in a shoot-em-up (aka SHMUP) to see how high of a score I can get in ONE play on one credit.
