Exciting. I was a bit bummed there wasn't a special announcements slot on Sunday but I hope we get a bunch of stuff.


I fully expect a KI S2 character reveal or two at EVO. The KI team(s) have been super savvy when it comes to taking every opportunity they can.

That would make for a great event indeed. Though it is such a pipe dream lol.

I don't think it's a surprise to anyone that Skullgirls isn't on that list, yet there is still some comedy in seeing all those fighting games and then Mario Kart but no SG lol

SG was talked about, I'll say that at least. If it were added, I'd actually be the one running it on top of the 3 games I'm already running, and then we'd have to cram it into the schedule somewhere and then talk about attendance for it, which frankly isn't strong, especially in this region. Best I can do is bring it up again.

Only 5-10 people outside China play it and it's a pain in the ass to get it going if you're outside China.

That game has been in Beta for almost 3 years now too.

Yeah, but SNK would actually expect me to pay $60 upfront for a new KoF and the netcode is gonna be bad.

What's the timeline leading up to EVO again? I know CEO was last week, but we still have anything? Usually their a Curley right? Is it just WNF/NLBC from here on out?

My biggest gripe with xdzw besides the netcode (out of china, so hard to blame them) was that throws were poor when i played. They had more unthrowable frames compared to kof. It also used 2 button throws and kept alternate guarding from kof, so it made it very hard and risky to land. I'm fine with 2 button throws and alternate guarding but they work extremely poor together. Also King is one of the most fun versions of Ryu as of recently.

Why keep Alt-Guard when there's 2 button throws? That makes zero sense.

I hate alt-guard in general too. I main grapplers so...

Call the place you ordered from and say you never got it, and that they have your address wrong.

I ordered a ps2 pad, a ps2/ps3 converter and a ps2/360 converter :l


:lol
Click to expand...

I should still have a PS2 to 360 converter around, I think. I can bring that. It's the Inpin one.

for PS3, if you want to use my PS4 pad for BBCP when I'm not in pools that's fine.

Ok, I'll try and get another ps2 pad in time and see if I can pick up a ps4 pad myself before I leave.

Just make sure to remove your old address from the site you ordered from so it doesn't get sent to that asshole landlord by accident again.

Completely random tangent, but airthrow is officially on my xmania team.

Anyone have any suggestions for team names?

Oh, no I'm not criticizing or asking the game to be added to the lineup! Just making a humorous observation!

I just had one hour of interview with Harada (mostly about 20 years of Tekken and the tutorials in fighting games) and 30 minutes with Daigo Ikeno (SF3.3 illustrations and SF4 art director) and that was great!

Well I almost died on the freeway when a car cut the road in front of me, and I crashed my car in another car two hours later in Paris. But still worth it.

I may need help to translate them in english, is somebody interested in helping?

i'm sure that BT/Koogy still helps Yipes out and that Yipes is unofficially still sponsered by BT... must be the only explanation as to why Yipes is the only EMP member that gets sent out to events. Yipes said it before, he fights for team EMP but he's still BT

Wouldn't it be amazing if we got all of the following announced?:
TxSF
CapcomGame
Smash 4 Character
KOFXIV
Guilty Gear Xrd Character

It could be a pretty spectacular event, rivaling Evo.

This post is something I would expect out of one of those crazy pre-E3 hype train threads.
You forgot the US version of UNIEL being announced.
