Fighting games have had a resurrgance in the last few years - and groups have come up as a result.

Do you run one?  Please post here so we can add you; all you have to do is be open to new players.

Thinking about joining, but didn't what to do?  Read below for more.  Some ask you to go to the next tournament for the game - talk to players.  You'll find the various "weekly gathering people" there, and they'll be interested in you joining up.  Others will let you just join right up; often it depends on venue, event, etc. 


Why should we get together and game?

Any fighting gamer that's put some time into their game knows - you've got to play others to get better.

Online is great for FPS, but sucks for fighters.
Playing just your small group of friends?  Won't get you too far.
Online resources will teach you moves, combos; but you won't learn to hone those into your own style without serious competition.

If we have a group in your city for your game?  Join us.
If there isn't, and you've got a home situation where you can, or a venue where you can - start a gathering.

Your game community will grow, OKgamers will promote your existance - and Oklahoma?  Will become an even stronger force; drawing more events and gamers to us, and benefiting us all.
