One day Biff went to the Trocadero Arcades in London and saw that there was a huge queue to play on one of the Marvel vs Capcom game machines. The people waiting were a little annoyed as there was one player in front who was dominating and would not get off the machine as he kept beating every challenger. The queue of well over 100 people asked Biff to step up to see if he could help them out. He bravely went up to the challenger and selected his characters. After a tough battle, Biff was victorius. As the crowd cheered for him in relief that they would finally be able to freely use the machine, Biff's opponent put another coin in and demanded a rematch! He lost once again, and continuously repeated putting more coins in. After 4 or 5 losses in a row the opponent responded "Nah Blud! Nah Blud!". Biff said "Yes Blud! Yes Blud! Get off the machine, thats it you lost you are off now". The crowd shook Biff's hand and cheered as he left the venue, thanking him for his assistance. As grand a result as that was for Biff, it was only the beginning...

In reflection, had Biff reached the Top seed he would have been able to face his old rival Tom in the final and he believed he could have performed better on the day. He did however not use any other special characters that he had saved up, but stated that they were for "next time". The day after, as Patrick and Biff had not faced in the Tournament, but Patrick was the Silver medallist, they decided to set up an exhibition match to see what would have happened had they faced in the Tournament. They agreed on a first to 5; Patrick's timing with Ken was very good, Biff brought his M.Bison out and was in better form than the Tournament; after a few slips he brought out a comfortable win of 5-2. They also competed in some friendly matches on Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix which resulted in a 10-3 win for Biff. A future Tournament in HD remix has been discussed but there are no concrete plans as of yet. The other game at the Tournament was PES2009 which had a lot of competitiors, and a grand total points table of the 3 games was drawn up. Biff achieved a 3rd place trophy as he accumulated a lot of points on Street Fighter 4 and SMK and was also the highest scoring player who only entered 2 game Tournaments that day.
