I mentioned this in a recent status update but allow me to be more in-depth here. As we all know, Marie Rose has confidently marched her way onto the PSN & XBL stores knowing only too well that most of us are going to drop some shillings just so we can have the smarmy Goth princess feature on our rotating discs. I'm in Australia, so i had to wait an extra day for her to show up, when she did though i rushed into that PSN store faster than a doped up pony. I was in, 12 digit code inputted knowing that little miss innocence would be in my game within a few clicks. Download is over "That was quick" says i, with a gleeful smile on my smug mug, beaming like a proud father cradling his newborn, ignoring the house phone as it rings "Let it ring out, it's probably telemarketing anyways" i ushered, eager to step into the overly large boots of the new maid.
Anyway, i fire up the game. "There she is" i said, nearly spilling my beer from excitement with my spindly finger following through the rows of faces before stopping at the milky-faced cheeky-smile of Miss Rose. I highlight her in versus mode & have a few bouts to cuss out her movelist. After a few duke-outs of seeing what the brat-in-black could do i was more than happy to have her on my character select screen. Hours later though with the Marie Rose excitement down a notch i decided to jump into a lobby.
If you never knew about Marie Rose you soon would, as i skimmed down the ladder of lobby lists i was confronted with these titles:
- Marie Roses Only
- Marie Rose Teahouse
- Loli's Den
- House of Loli's
I entered Loli's den & as expected had four sets of Marie Rose eyes staring at the sunglasses of my Zack face. Now this isn't all exactly word for word but the following chat went something similar like this:
"Um........Zack" replied one of them
Me: Problem champ?
"Marie Rose doesn't want Zack in her den lol"
Me: Oh........well Zack doesn't plan on staying long.
"Good, because this is Loli's den, not Zacks den."
Me:
Me: Simmer down tiger, just because Zackery is my avatar doesn't mean i am going to use him here
"Lol, ok then......you can stay for now but we're watching you"
"Yeah, we're watching you! Tee hee" replied another
It was my turn to fight, the criteria of this lobby never fully indicated that i HAD to use Marie Rose, so i didn't & picked my main man Zack instead. Before the fight starts i am sent immediately back to the lobby screen
"Wow, no Zack! This is Loli's den!"
*You have been kicked*
In an attempt to shield myself from all the Marie Rose hype in the rooms i decided to create my own lobby instead, called: Zack's Crib
*waits in lobby*
* Marie Rose player joins*
"Hi i use Marie Rose, want to play?"
Me:
