Back in college, I was soooo addicted to the King of Fighters series and Tekken 3 (and tons of other fighting games like capcom vs. SNK, project justice, guilty gear, etc.) and "challenging" amongst us players was very common.
Ang sarap ng pakiramdam when you win a closely contested battle, but kahit saan, hindi talaga naiiwasan ang pikunan.
I remember back in the day when I was playing KOF2000. I was winning by a huge margin so I pressed the "taunt" button.
Turns out the challenger didn't like that and he started throwing profanities at me while we were playing.
Laging "T.ang in.a, G.ago ka pala. Oh, ano kaya ko din yan! Oh, oh, sabi na nga ba ganyan gagawin mo e" etc etc.
He kept inserting tokens and kepton challenging me.. I think I won 7 straight until he finally decided to give up. Another challenger took his place but then he still talks behind me, calling me a cheat, etc etc and he even pushed my back.
I saw him lotsa times after that but he never challenged me again. He brings his"bodyguard" (who's very good, actually) and we're the ones who slugged it out.
Yun.. basta fighting games, dami talagang initan ng ulo.
I'm sure kahit hindi fighting games may pikunan din.. (driving games? UFO catcher? hehehe)
Kahit siguro sa staff at tindera ng tokens nagkaka-pikunan.
Share your experiences, anong ginagawa niyo sa situation na iyon, etc.
