What's new

The Official Boston/New England Thread

Has anybody tried one of the new 360 pads that rotate? I've been thinking of getting one because I heard they're better, but I don't really want to drop $60 if it's not a huge improvement.

Tournament at Souper Bowl in Lowell, MA this Sunday. Also, MK9 patch came out on PSN! Not sure if this came out for 360.
Yeah, I saw that. Unfortunately, I play MK9 on PS3 and lack a dual-modded stick. Add to that the fact that I've been playing this game on pad lately, there's not much of a point in showing up to an event an hour and a half away to play at less than 100% on a borrowed stick. Thanks for looking out anyway, kona. If I didn't live an hour away from where everyone meets during the week and work 2nd shift, then I'd be able to make it out to more shit. By the way, I thought I heard that the 360 version of MK9 could only operate with the hotfixes in tact when connected to XBL? I'm guessing that's wrong since all these events up here are on 360, but I'm sure I had read that somewhere a while back.

Edit: Yeah, I did read that...Courtesy of THTB on TYM
Hope for everyone's sake that those 360's are connected to XBL :S

Being a pad player as well (for MK only), it's gonna suck playing on 360 but I'm going to give it my best for now on a 360 pad. I also share you concerns for the balance patches being saved on the 360. I'm looking to save up money to get that converter I posted earlier but unemployment makes it hard to save up for anything. D:

GGs at SB! Thanks for being patient with me while I helped run brackets. Great to see the MK community show up and support the game!

YUP GG all... it felt good to win it all :)
RUN IT BACK! Real talk though, good shit! Playing your Reptile is frustrating and fun at the same time. I hope we see and play each other again soon.

Anyone going to Pinball Wizard Arcade tomorrow? I'm still trying to debate with myself... Duke Nukem Forever, or MK Fightnight, god... the dilemma...
