do other gamers question your neo collection?

I traded my PS2 for my AES system, and alot of my friends said that I was crazy. They are fools and they just don't understand because they are a gang of crap fuck-faces. Do people ever look at your collection and say "neo what? what the hell are those?" or "why do you play those old things when you can play Halo on the X-Box?" like people do at my house?

That is what all my friends say too, but the 1st thing they want to <img src="graemlins/eye.gif" border="0" alt="[Eye]" /> <img src="graemlins/eye.gif" border="0" alt="[Eye]" /> is the NeoGeo collection.

Actually, before I headed off to college in late 2000, I had (and still have) a neighborhood full of retro gamers (my younger brother being one of them). When I told them (bro and a few of his friends) back in November 2001 that I was going to get a Neo-Geo system, they all said one thing,
"GET METAL SLUG!". I did (MVS cart, of course), and now, they're all over the system like Oprah at an all-you-can-eat buffet.

When I traded your bitch mom for my Neo AES games, all my friends say too.

But the 1st thing they want to see is how fugly your bitch mom looks like, not NeoGeo collection

Yeah, when I told this self-proclaimed 'hardcore' gamer that I got myself an MVS he said something like "But you could have got a Gamecube for that price"

And? I wanted an MVS! Lightyears better IMHO

I am very lucky, i have friends that do understand why i like neogeo, one of them even bought samurai shodown 4 (mvs) to play on my mvs (that is when i get it...). My other friends like to play neo geo games with me. One of my friend is not a big gamer but he still buys NES games just 'cause he has loads of fun with them. My gf likes neo games as well. her bro is like ps2 i-can-warez-everything-on-it type. He still gets impressed by the neo geo games but he still prefers ps2... at least i can play on his ps2 when i feel like trying 3d games.

Well, most of my friends know what a Neo is, and most of them think it's great! They know of it, and while they think I'm crazy I'm sure, I know they love it. ;) Hehe.

BTW, Liquid Snake, your posts are really REALLY starting to piss me off. Leave it in the war room and shut the fuck up. Grow the hell up. Okay, you hate the guy, get over it. Is there a way to ignore posts by users, because if there is you're this close to getting on that list for me.

I also love the response I get for the size of the cartridges. What I do find, though, is most people who appreciate good games, marvel at the graphics of the Neo, even though they've never played one before. These are, of course, people who, although own any of the current systems, still own the older 2D systems as well.

Of course, once you tell them what you pay for some carts, they get back down to earth and forget whatever small dream they just had of actually owning the system....and, of course, that you're nuts.

All my friends agree that the games are huge and, overall, Neo Geo is pretty stupid. I don't necessarily deny it - the games are horribly overpriced and cheaper versions of the same things are generally available on other systems, but I think it's a fun thing to have, so it doesn't really matter.

If you want to start up something then let's rock.
You also piss me off that every time you just whine about "I want to get this cart" or "price is not right ..bla bla bla".

If you want to get any game you like, pay the goddamn money in the front.

If you have no money, keep your mouth shut and wait for the price you're willing to pay.

The reason I hate NSX-T is that he keeps bragging about his fuckin fake carts he bought from Dion/Chris and telling the untrue story. He wanted to trade his fuckin KOF2K for Shock Troopers 2nd and I caught his ass.

NSX-T, stop saying KOF2K was $300+ at that time. Fuck you and your bitch mom. When did JPN KOF2K go over $300?

Liquid, at least it's related to the subject. Get over him already you stinkin' twat. And if you haven't played MGS2, take snake off your god damn avatar. Man you piss me off.

Because, like my son... no one gives a fuck. Hell, I'm glad he pisses you off. You're the only one that talks about it all the time. Sure he says something once in a great while, but about 80% of your posts are that. YES! Look back at them. Quit spamming for god's sake.

Spike,
If he stops bothering me than I'll stop.
Keep in mind that "Never stop fighting until fight stops".

I don't think I'll play my MGS2 sooner.

I'm playing Silent Hill 2 & watching "Godfather trilogy" and Saprano DVD now.

This thread is just getting interesting. <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[LOL]" />

Oh and my friend friends think I'm crazy and say The Neo has "Genesis" graphics. Not saying that the Gen. has bad graphics but the Neo is way better than that.

Some friends do and some friends don't understand the goodness that is Neo Geo. Those that do - understand my craving of a cab or candy - those that don't - well, sucks to be them hehehe...hahaha.

If they do, I don't consider them true "gamers." <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[LOL]" /> <img src="graemlins/tickled.gif" border="0" alt="[Tickled]" />

All of them do. I got two of my friends to even buy a Neo!
