Spectating is free…

Christ I wish I had a counter of how many times that question is asked. It’s absolutely ridiculous.

July 27th and 28th, 2011 Sold Out?

Wednesday and Thursday are sold out already. What gives Mr. Wizard?? I already reserved a long time ago, but I thought I would post about it.

64

Anyone have a game schedule for July 29th? I need to know the latest to arrive into Vegas by plane.

Thanks

65

What??!
Damnit…I haven’t had a chance to book yet.
Any chance rooms can be freed?

66

Is there a chance you guys have more rooms open? The group rate doesn’t seem to work.

67

Ranmasama: Have you asked anyone from Texas if they booked rooms yet? Maybe you can crash with them?

68

I haven’t yet. Dunno if anyone would room with 7 others though lol

69

AirbrushKing posted about hotel room rates (because he’s not staying at the Rio) in the Texas Luxury Bus thread (in the SW Region boards) Find out if that hotel has any rooms left and they were cheaper too.

Link has been updated with new room rates. The first block has sold out.

72

Link updated (?), but your post is the same. Infact price is the same without promo code unless I’m mistaken.

73

My fault, I thought you were just going to evo2k.com and trying to book. The first post in this thread has been updated with the correct info now.

74

Is JOYPAD Controllers allowed?

Can somebody please help tell me if I can use my PS3 original joypad controllers in EVO2011? I can’t use stick…
Thank you.

75

As long as it’s not wireless, you’re fine.

Allowed Controllers

  1. Fight Sticks
  2. MadCatz Fightpads.
  3. All PS2 Controllers used with a PS2/PS3 convertor. For players accustomed to using a PS3 controller, this is your best option.

Specifically Banned Controllers

  1. The Sixaxis and Dualshock 3 controllers designed for use on the Playstation 3 are specifically banned.

The controllers that come with the PS3 are Sixaxis (old) or DS3 (new), and are therefore banned, sorry. You will have to puchase a ps2 pad and adapter to play in the tournament.

77

damnit! hotel rates went up…kept putting off booking the room =( oh well…must hunt for another place to stay

78

I’ll try to make this lol

79

How much is the deposit charge for the Rio rooms exactly? I’ve never booked a hotel before.

80

Your deposit should be the first night’s fee…
