Looking to buy/ sell a stick? ***READ HERE***
Every week we're getting several threads asking for the exact same things over and over to do with buying a new stick and occasionally selling an old one. The amount of threads with this kind of stuff occuring is pushing other important stuff off the front page. So from now on, I would like to ask that all questions when…

End of an Era...
Likely next Tuesday, the fighting game forum on boards.ie will be closed. The threads will be merged with the main games forum, and the forum retired to the Attic. At one point, this forum was an important part of my life, and something I spent a huge amount of time cultivating. It was a vibrant place and many friendships…

The Return of Mike Ross (Interview)
Saw this video from about two weeks ago this morning. An interview with Mike Ross. Sounds like he went through a very dark period where he cut himself off from the world. Interviewer Lap Chi doesn't show great technique though at times. It's clear he's hurting and can't really get into specifics. But it also seems he…

Ten years of Irish FGC videos...
I've been making videos for the IFGC for a decade today. That's crazy, it's been a huge part of my life. I was just curious how the Arcade infinity vids were made and wanted to do it myself! https://youtu.be/YJ1fQKB6nDw It used to take nearly 4 hours for a 10 minute video to upload, our net was so bad! I know it's quiet…

New Power Rangers fighting game..

An old challenger has left
10 Years ago around the launch of SFIV Fibbers had a launch party of sorts. Big screen, no FGC yet so I went along with KenB and Trev B. It was epic. I'd never experienced the thrill, the atmosphere the noise from the crowd, (It was packed.) When someone pulled off an ultra the crowd went ballistic.) I met Kiki and a few…

Fightcade 2
Do any of you use Fightcade 2 at all for online fights? It seems a much smoother experience now using the 'Fightcade Beta 2' than it used to be however getting a decent European match is a struggle, lots of Korean, Japanese, Brazilians and Americans but not many of us in the Euro zone which would get the best results…

Custom artwork
Hey, Just wondering if anyone knows of anywhere in Ireland/UK/EU where you can get custom artwork printed and cut (or even just the former). I'v used Focus Attack and Tek Innovations in the past but the shipping is murder when you only want to change up some art.
