Help Save 8 on the Break
Hey guys,
This especially goes out to all my East Coast meetup peeps that have been to the Break. they're in danger of having their property taken away because of taxes they haven't been able to pay due to COVID. It's a super shit situation but I figure if people can even contribute like $5 it could make all the difference for this. So if you're able to help out, I'd super appreciate it and defo plan on having another meetup there after all this stuff is over. https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-the-...3co4Xktp-KoydQ |

Re: Help Save 8 on the Break
My rhythm game career would not be what it is without the break, and as a current TO for champions of the coast, this sucks so much to hear. Hopefully we can all come together enough to make a big enough impact.
edit: holy fuckkk almost 5k after just 1 hour.

Re: Help Save 8 on the Break
The FFR meetup of long ago was one of the first times that I've ever been to The Break, and I've been there countless times ever since
I'm really glad they're almost at their goal, that place means a lot to me and that's probably the same for a lot of us here |

Re: Help Save 8 on the Break
This is all wholesome. They reached their goal and then some.
So glad when communities come together to do this.

Re: Help Save 8 on the Break
One of the very few old school esc arcades left. Not filled with redemption games and junk. Also rhythm gamer paradise basically. ITG, DDR, Pump, IIDX, Popn', Teknica, ReRave, Guitar Freaks, keyboard mania, Jubeat and I'm sure I'm missing some. Oh stepmaniaX not sure if it took over ITG or if both are there cause I haven't been in a while but Kyle Ward uses the Break as a testing place for stuff. Def worth a visit if you for some reason ever find yourself in NJ haha.

Re: Help Save 8 on the Break
Plan on donating once I get my life together a bit this weekend. Love places like this even though I haven't actually been out there yet. Hope I can attend the meetup once this mess is over!

Re: Help Save 8 on the Break
If memory serves me right, a Technika cab is still there but it's just been taking up space. I really wish it was running though, it was one of the first hand-oriented rhythm games I got to play that wasn't A console game like Parappa or Gitaroo Man.
Also, the ITG dedicab and SMX cab are there together, and the 573 in the back corner is running Ace, so. but that cb is in such rough shape to play anything over a 14 reliably haha.

Re: Help Save 8 on the Break
And that's just the rhythm games I didn't even list all the fighting games that have a community surrounding them, the huge line of pinball machines, their awesome break steaks and it's where I got to meet with so many FFR friends.
