[Jan 7, 2012] Frosty Faustings IV (GGXX, SSFIVAE, UMvC3, BB, MK and more)... (Northbrook, IL)

Just to be sure will FF be running AE 2012?

Of course AE will be 2012. All games will be the most current released version.

So, I just noticed that BBCS Extend comes out in the US AFTER Frosty Faustings. The Japanese version comes out on Dec 17th. Is anyone planning on importing it? Do people still want BBCS Extend even though it will not be out in the US yet? We could have BBCS2 instead but… what do you all think? I don’t expect to have a copy of the game personally so unless someone can bring BBCS Extend, I don’t think we will be using that version of the game. Please provide input.

Mike I’ll vouch for KoFXiii being worthy as a main game. It is arguably the best fighter to come out since the SF4 boom.

To be honest I don’t think you’ll get 16 people to enter Blazblue anyway regardless of the version.

If you want to commentate for any game please send me a pm because I just want to go over some things. This will be my biggest tournament stream and just want to ensure a level of professionalism/entertainment which is something that may have been lacking in past streams. I just want to ensure things run smooth this time around.

link please. the converter I used for evo was pure shit, almost made me pick up stick because of that ridiculous rule…

I’ll probably still try to come if it is 360 (just to money match people on a ps3 setup probably…) but I know a lot of people from MN will drop if its 360 since we have a large amount of pad players, prolly like minus 8 or 10 people.

Just to reiterate:

Please post up on bringing consoles (especially 360 consoles WITH the games and UPDATED). I need all of chicago’s help in order for this to run in a timely manner.

Posted it already but I’m mostly sure I can bring a 360 with UMvC3, AE 2012, MK9, and KOF if anyone is interested.

Yes,** please PM Medina4Life if you plan to do commentary**. He will be running the stream so it is important that you discuss a few things with him first so that we can ensure that the stream runs as smooth as possible.

If you plan to bring a setup (console + game and TV) PLEASE post what you plan to bring so that we can have a better understanding of what to expect as far as resources.

Regarding SF being on XBOX… It has been on XBOX every year since we have been running Frosty Faustings. For those of you who play on pad and don’t like XBOX, there are PS2 to XBOX converters available to use. I am very sorry that we can’t make everyone happy, but XBOX runs the game better and has less frame issues.

So is marvel teams is a go?

i’m bringing my ps3 and EVO monitor for ah3, laptop for brackets, and brandino should be bringing a laptop for melty

I would say that there will be UMVC3 teams. It will have to run at the same time as AE teams though most likely.

Greats, do you have MK and BB as well?

OK I made a poll to decide which version of BB we will use. Please vote if you plan to enter BB. The results will be announced in 15 days.

nope sry… i only have BBCS and no MK

What day is AE teams? Because my bus leaves at 1130 saturday night so i dont wanna have to leave midway

FF is a one day event. Everything is on Saturday the 7th

16 bit posted on TYM saying he’ll be bringing console + evo ASUS monitor for MK, fyi

take me out then, not playing on a shitty xbox pad or converter.

+1 for kof being a main game. Iirc there aren’t major differences between 360 and ps3, but I could be wrong.
