Btw SFV still has the most entrants by far and is headlining the event even if every new fighting game was supposed to "kill SFV" ...
I'll watch SFV (top 8 is a at an ungodly hour for us europeans though ;_;) rooting for Xian and Daigo and of course Guilty Gear! I can't get into watching Tekken too much even if I do love the game.
@Feena I'm the other way around these days. I started watching Tekken 7 tournaments proper and every other fighter seems a bit boring to me now. I'll still watch SFV and probably GG, but I'm addicted to that slow-mo.
@ShogunRok I am sure it is just a matter of time and habit - I'll try to catch the evo finals to see if they can do the trick for me
@Feena Fortunately Tekken's on at a reasonable time in the UK!
Nice to see MvC3 is back at the fore, PS4 release must have helped.
@Cassetticons It was players' choice! Had a close match with Pokken
I gotta work this weekend, but I'll watch whatever I can.
@Feena Sweet! Hard to believe just a few years ago people considered it completely dead.
It always bothers me that Melee still gets top treatment after all these years. Then again, I'm not a hardcore fighting game fan so what do I know.
I'll watch what I can. Definitely gonna make sure I catch some Guilty Gear and Tekken, maybe some BlazBlue.
Great. My best friend's getting married this Saturday. The selfish bugger would go and choose the EVO weekend, wouldn't he?
My friend wanted me and him to fly to Vegas to attend the tournament for the weekend. Sadly, I'm busy with work, so that's out of the picture.
Thankfully we have the internet so I can watch bits and pieces.
