I’m THERE!!!

One question. Why 360 over PS3 for BB, SF4, KOF and HDR? PS3 can play every game on that list and also is gonna have T6. I would think this would cut down on the need for systems if you consolidated to just PS3.

3

Count me in man
Imma be living in Austin by then
so yeah, Ill be closer

Imma make it top 3 on 3s

4

All that is still in the works. Just wanted to announce the tourney to generate some hype. Part of the reason for SF4 on 360 is the larger base of players that have a stick and pad for 360. It may change but I doubt it. But console line up for other games will change.

Anyway dont worry man, we will have everything sorted within 2 weeks.

5

Kudos to your signature. I’ll make sure to try and get a few people to the 3S tourney. It doesn’t help that your tourney is scheduled the weekend before finals though :confused:

6

no ps3 because you did not earn a trophy

you did not earn a trophy

you did not earn a trophy

you did not earn a trophy

8

Nah man this will be in the winter at the HYATT. So yeah the temp will be nice and friendly.

9

Is there a promotion code with the Hyatt if we book with them?

10

The LCD brings me nightmares.

11

I heard about that happening at evo, but as long as we’re using people’s personal systems and not fresh systems with just the chars unlocked, this shouldn’t be an issue. Hasn’t been at any of the tourneys I’ve been to recently.

360s are lame anyway…

(This message brought to you by people who don’t like 360s…vote Nader)

Hopefully the heater + games won’t overload the breaker again, or else we’re just going from one extreme to the other. Everybody, bring blankets!!! :lol: JK

12

I’ll be there for sure

Keep 360 for sf4 please :’( I even got an extra stick I can let people use if they’re ps3 users.

13

yes. I will have more info on that asap.

14

edit - nm

15

I know u throwing in dat marvhel my g… U should make that an 0ffical game ya digg

16

yeah marvel is on the roster, we just havent finalized everything. When I get home from work Ill have a detailed list posted.

It will be on the DC.

17

Sweet. Yall’s official website is pretty useful.

18

Got to hit this up. Chun Li will have to take this tourney.

19

Time to get my Revenge :wink:

20

You guys should just have a poll to see what consoles to use. I would much rather go with 360s since they’re cheaper and more people use them. But that’s stupid apparently.
