When Tekken and Street Fighter III were for family bonding moments…

I spent time with Miel, Arvin, Red and Lui in Timezone yesterday. I was actually surprised that Miel liked playing Tekken. So I watched her spar with Red, while Arvin hovered in the background and Lui eyed a tall, lanky, mestizo guy in a green shirt whom he thought would be perfect for me. (Lui does that all the time…look for guys he’d think are my type and point them out. Thing is, although my ex-boyfriends are all pale and mestizo, that’s actually far from my ideal template.)

My mind wandered to that time when my cousins and I would play Tekken on the PS and Street Fighter III on the Sega Megadrive.  It was always BOYS versus GIRLS. My bro is a genius fighting gamer because he is a natural tactician, even when the game he’s playing is new to him.  (In fact, we’d bring him to mall arcades and he’d get enemies from territorial gamers there…mostly because us girls would gloat repetitively while cheering him on. Hahaha!) But none of his and my cousin JR’s techniques would work against the power of Angel’s random button mashing.  I swear, even when the girl did not know what she was doing, her Fei Long’s fiery kick would activate repeatedly in a massive killer combo whenever she was close to being pummeled to death.

Then in Tekken, my Jun Kazama would get knocked out by JR’s favorite weirdos. He always picks the big furry ones (even in X-Men: Clone Wars for the Sega). I’d be avenged by Virna’s favorite bad-ass guys (Heihachi) and Leki, Ikang’s and Raissa’s kangaroos.

Hehe. Was brought back to the present by Miel’s scream. Red demonstrated Miguel’s one-hit fatal blow on Miel’s Lili. That looked painful. Yowch. It also got Miel wary of what other moves Red planned to try.

Meanwhile, Lui played Percussion for Kids…

Yes, the best way to be good at Tekken is via random button-mashing. XD

talagang tiningnan mo sha ha. last time na tumititig ako sa super lean (but nicely toned) na guy sa climbing, naloka ako nung nakita ko GF niya. mas macho pa samin nung bf niya. di na ako tumingin, baka mabugbog ako ng di oras.

shempre nung medyo nagising ako, na-realize ko na may subject-verb disagreement ang title ko. LOL.

pagbigyan natin in this case. tama naman kasi talaga. pero kasi pag emotional stuff naman pinag-uusapan, nababara naman natin siya eh. hehehehe.

buti na lang super busy sa mah-jong mga aunties namin. eh ganun din sila maglaro. lalabas pang kami yung milder version. pero nakakatawa, nung ibang tao nakipaglaro samin ng tekken at pusoy-dos. NA-TRAUMA sa pamilya namin. hahahahahaha!

i got intrigued by the new characters so i’ll prolly go and practice. but i’ll make sure that none of the regular players are there so i can practice without anyone trash-talking me. or whispering about my gender and stuff…
