[May 24, 2013] Ultimate Fighting Game Tournament 9: Guts! (Rosemont, IL)

…oh shit

CORN in the building, it’s on like Donkey Kong

UFGT9 will have **new head-to-head games **as well as last year’s favorites in the Fun & Games area. The new location looks awesome with plenty of room and I’m very happy about the venue change. In fact, I’ve been working hard on a very BIG surprise… so big it would never have fit in the old location. Hmm… I wonder what it is. I have so much to tell you about this year’s games and prizes… but I can’t… yet! Look for announcements coming soon detailing what will be another great UFGT event.

Gamelist is up. http://ufgtus.wordpress.com/2013/01/11/ufgt9-game-lineup/

Can’t wait for this. I missed the last one thanks to school but not this time, I’ll be there for sure!

Marvel is gonna be on Xbox right?

Unless EVO demands I also use PS3, yes.

Alright cool. I live in Mount Prospect 20 minutes away from the venue so I’m planning on attending.

Is there a Facebook event for this yet? :open_mouth:

If bus/flight tickets aren’t looking too bad, I’m making this 100%.

Flights have been super reasonable. I’ve been tweeting deals out bi-weekly

The biggest tournament in Boston is called GUTS Game Underground Tournament Spectacular. This is not that event. Look for more info on Boston GUTS soon.

I know Keits and Rocksteady (SonicB00M) have already replied to this on Facebook and are currently in talks about the situation. For all those not aware, here is the response from Ultimate Fighting Game Tournament organizers:

The tournament’s name is Ultimate Fighting Game Tournament 9. The theme of UFGT changes every year. Last year for UFGT8, the theme was Infinity. This year, the theme is Guts, the TV show. The theme also sometimes appears as the tournament’s subtitle in promotional materials. Regardless, the name of the tournament still appears as simply UFGT9 in most outlets and is referred to as such. The choice of this theme and subtitle was made independently of Massachusetts major Game Underground Tournament Spectacular, and no harm was or is intended to that events’ organizers, sponsors, competitors, or fans.

Forums are back!

Ill be in the house

UFGT9 Registration is now OPEN!

New venue, New theme, Same great taste

Any rough date on when a schedule will be estsblished? Since this is a day before a major US holiday it looks like I may have the same problem of getting Friday off as last yea r -_-

Schedule is just like last year.  You wont get a near-final one until a few weeks out, and you need to expect every game to start at noon on friday to be safe.  Sorry!

alright. I guess I’ll register as late as possible and hope that gets me into a Saturday pool for AE and SFxT. I want to go to Chicago so baaaaaaaaaaad<br>
