I totally missed the one-life rule for Kung Fu. Awesome!

I wonder what the over/under will be on how many awesome runs will get ruined by the magician boss with a 1 life rule?

Well he ruins every run anyways so...

Yeah, there should be a prediction for how many broken controllers will come from the Kung Fu group by the end of the week.

I ... think I know how to handle the Magician now? If I can figure out some other parts I might be dangerous!

There is a method, but from what I remember it's not guaranteed 100% of the time.

I wish I had enough time this week for one of our Double Dragon challenges, but I'll be lucky if I get enough time to get a solid attempt in just for fun.

FFVI persona?
But... neither Final Fight nor Fatal Fury ever got a game named FF VI.
Fatal Fury had more than 6 iterations, considering the classic series, the Real Bout series and the Wild Ambition game, though, but I cannot remember any characters with those names in those games!

Jesus Christ. It is amazing to me how effortless video games are for some people

Well, at least I can make the final 8. Even if I will get slaughtered here eventually by all the damn savants in the 2017 field

Also, just noticed that all of the previous champions are in the same block together

Brock breaks the fucking sarcasm meter and Tardo isn't sarcastic at all, he's just a weirdo!

Sarcasm is in the eye of the beholder, it seems. I am a 3. Perhaps it's due to my mostly dry humour.

I am enjoying the FFVI persona aspect though. As long as no one ends up being that little shit Tama! Welp, someone will probably claim him now!

We may be up for slaughter in the same round. But hey, maybe we can knock one of them over, steal their gun, and take some out in the process! We'll go out in a blaze of glory! Berzerker mode: ENABLED

Group (of) C(hampions)? O.o This cannot be a coincidence...

Burn. Plus it's more of symbolic win since he technically got his ass beat by Bea

~~2,998,400 (2,948,400 + 50,000 stage bonus)~~

I guess I peaked. I put all I got on this today and all I could do was to improve my previous score by 7,800 points.

~~In a drunk stupor, I did it. Yay and stuff.~~

I am bash my head non-stop now...

What a shamefully bad 1st attempt...
I suck.
Also, I am glad I won't have to please any lady this week. My fingers will be useless for a few days...

Btw, if you beat the last boss, you can pause the game to take your semi final score picture. Can't pause to take the picture of the 50K bonus, though.

What's the best way to capture a score after, oh let's say, the end of level 3? Asking for a friend.

The game over screen shows your score in that case.

The stage 3 boss is the first hard part of 1943. You'll get a much higher score once you can get past that guy. For a real challenge try to beat it quick enough to get a 100% rating.

That one was fairly easy.
But I didn't get 100% on stage 11, 14 and 19 bosses, which means I left 120K points in the table with that run.
I need to do better than that. That score is really bad.

Great! Thanks! Which way does "my friend" have to point the camera at the screen?

Before I can answer that, I must now if said friend is of female persuasion and if so, is she cute?
