EVO Fighting Game Championships
 

[Awaiting this year's schedule and stream links.]

The womens invitational only gets a half hour?

Shocker.

lol women's invitational. It's not like videogames are a super athletic sport where gender differences are a huge factor. Come on.

Just checked out a series between a Dhalsim and a Fuerte. That Dhalsim cracked under the pressure the last fight.

Yeah, Fuerte's a bitch in all levels of play.

Some of these guys, god damn.

Yeah, Marn is fucking nasty.

Sunday's gonna be so hype.

Semifinals were awesome. Justin Wong just got eliminated, which is nuts.

LOL

Anyway, today should be great. Gonna catch Tats, MvC3 casuals, and SSF4 finals. Everything else could fuck itself.

Stream chatters giving MvC2 so much shit lol.

Guess you found that meme.

MvC2 done. Some guy won with Storm/Sent/Cyke. That is unexpected and shocking.

TvC coming up.

EDIT WHOOPS:

Misread, fight goes on.

Did they say the last MvC2? They're retiring it?

No, I meant for the tourny.

No, when Wong won it. They were like "He's won the first and last MvC2 title."

Yeah, they're assuming they won't be able to fit it on the schedule anymore with MvC3 coming, and the potential of Midway getting a game on the show.

Oh... well there ya go.

I figure games remain as far as demand dictates.

LOL at MK as EVO 2011. That would be deliciously absurd.

Yeah, word. That would be hilarious.

They were saying MK and KOF both may get a shot.

KoF XIII I can believe.

If MK makes EVO I will lose further respect for that organization and gain unprecedented respect for Ed Boon in one stroke.

Even if the new games any good? Which most reports are saying it is so far...

The new MK being good seems likely. Tourny viable? Um........

Correction: It doesn't need to be tourny viable. They'll add it if enough people dig it.

True. Honestly, I would have said the chances of it being good would have been slim to none.

Isn't that how it should be instead of just a pretentious snob-fest?

People were saying MK vs DC was good. It turned out to be the same old shit, just more unbalanced and with fatalities toned down.

Really? Previews on Destructoid and Invisable Walls called it on being pretty shit after the E3 it was at. This time, the same places are saying it's pretty fun.

Well EVO's inconsistent. They bumped Blazblue this year (and I refuse to believe that had less potential players than MBAA), and HDRemix is still in for what I imagine is for 'tradition'.

They just claimed not that holding tournies and showing off scenes would get the game on the list, but lack of Smash, 3s, and BB sees through that bullshit. It's politics.

I would be happy to see MK get that kind of spotlight. MLG would do it regardless.

Fucking HOT TvC action right now. This game is leagues over MvC2.

Keits v Wong now. HYPE

Guy with the hoarse voice needs to get off the fucking mic. So distracting.

BRING OUT THE BROADS

This Kayane girl is real cute

That's a cute outfit she chose for Chun.

LOL Guy commentators totally patronizing the chicks.

I know

Kayane pulls off a super on recovery which is a feat in itself and the dudes are projecting:

"Yeah, she probably didn't imagine she could do that."

And they seemed generally amazed that she had a good poke game, whereas it wouldn't have been a subject if a dude was doing it.

I'd do Kayane, though. Novelty.
