My name is Thomas Vigil aka Vigilante and I have been playing meltyblood since I was introduced by Dipstick and Master Chibi at TGA. Since it closed I haven't been able to play as often and since this place in Framingham has fight nights I thought I could make a thread and possibly make it the place to go for MB comp. I have actually set up the BG fight nights in CT so I would like to start the same thing in MA and It's a great spot with knowledgeable staff. Here is some quotes from Dan, one of the employee's from Game Underground taking about some of the history of the store.
A little about us:
We started holding our gatherings last November (?) the week TGA (RIP) closed for a vacation. After the terrible incident occurred there, we've had fight night gatherings in Framingham for over a year. Gameunicon happened (ask for the sad details) and we were force to shut down. But now we're back! Jamie is now the 100% owner and I have been given permission to run fight nights every Tuesday and Friday like old times!
Before I rant on again I have to say this. TO ALL WHO HAVE GONE, BEEN, ATTENDED, SPENT MONEY, PLAYED FIGHTERS, WATCHED, DROVE/WALKED/SWAM/FLEW to GU THANK YOU. Everyone in this community is beyond awesome and I wouldn't host any of these fight nights if it weren't for the players support. Over the last year I have met so many new people and made some unbelievable friendships. I'm blessed because people come from so far just to play, and I try my best to accommodate. And obviously if there's ever a problem, tell me ASAP.
What we do at fight night:
$5 venue fee
Store hours: 5pm-1am (or later)I have keys to the store, and have the ability to leave whenever I want. That usually means if people wanna play till the sun shines, so be it.
What we play:
FIGHTERS! Obviously the game is SSF4 right now. But to be honest I'm open to anything. I would reccommend bringing another player if you wanna play the more obscure titles, or at the very least post before hand, but all fighters are welcomed. If you msg me before hand I'll also set it up in the afternoon.
We play on Viewsonics xbox 360 VGA mainly for super. We have a few ps3's on crt's too! I have one TE for each so if you dont have a stick theres no problem (but bring yours if you have one)
Thats pretty much the gist of fight nights in Framingham
1251 Worcester Road
Framingham
MA 01701Phone # 508-283-1503I just need to mention it's BYOS(Bring your own set-up) if someone is able to do this then it would make this much easier. We would also need sticks for the PS2 but hopefully, once more people show up we could start a little fund raiser so we wouldn't have to do this all the time.Hope to see you all there!!
