Message: [QUOTE="Gambrinus, post: 10681, member: 2357"] This anecdote is from when I was about 15 years old. Near my house, there was a club with an entire floor of arcade machines, with the classic atmosphere of the time: cigarette smoke, the sounds of various pinballs, and laughter or shouting. There, along with many others, was a Killer Instinct 1 machine, which was almost always empty since King of Fighters '98 and Marvel vs. Capcom were right next to it. I loved that game, to the point where I’d spend just one coin for a arcade ladder whenever I used Sabrewulf. One night, a tall guy interrupted my match against Eyedol by putting in a coin. It put me in a bad mood, so I played using all the dirty and annoying combos I could, finishing with an Ultra Combo (I’m not sure if it’s true, but there was a rumor that even if the game’s volume was low, the Ultra Combo scream couldn’t be adjusted). I remember hearing "ultraaaa combooo" and, at that moment, a punch turned off the lights. I never played KI in the arcade again, hahaha. From then on, until the place closed, I stuck to KOF and SF3.
