That junk was hot, I don’t know what you’re talking about.
@Shiki: ubitter?
To be fair, GG was quite popular in America for a long time. “GG and 3S” was the old “SF4 and MVC3.”
GG and its community was also shit on for a very long time by the Capcom community.
GG was also never treated like a main event at EVO, even in the years where it was equal in popularity to a bunch of other games that were pushed because the West Coast was good at it or the players had better connection to the staff (Tekken 4, CvS2).
The “main event” at EVO was always Marvel, 3S, Tekken, and CvS2 (briefly)
A lot of FGs are shat on by Capcom community peeps
Horry Sheet, it got me. I honestly didn’t think it would, but it got me.
Fair enough. People are entitled to their opinions.
I just think it’s hilarious that Capcom fanboys keeping giving up championships to VF, GG, and KOF fanboys while still believing themselves to be superior in all ways. Stay free, nutriders.
from the time stamps that everyone’s posting…wether you think the games are shitty or not, they’re obviously hype enough to stay up this late and watch.
>Do 50/50 burn kick mixup with Viper
>Daigo missing his autocorrect DPs against Seth
So this is what I need to do to T3 Evo huh?
I give Fuudo props for just playing solid against Latif, and scared him shitless with his rekka frame traps.
How cute, we still have people defending Dimps fighting games.
I stay up late regardless of what FG is streamed.
If I can stay up 4AM trying to beat Stage 5 of Castlevania or Bayou Billy on www.virtualnes.com then I can watch a few matches of Dimps fighting games.
Every top 8 was amazing to watch besides Tekken. Tekken was torture, it’s a shame it’s not as fun to watch as it is to play. AE was easily the most hype.
rewarding DDDDDDD(turtle)dddddddefensive play style I can understand, but there is not even 1 Bison made top 32…no Guile either.
Neurosis got out…(best bison in Japan, along with Kim1234, TUC, I don’t know Andyocr made it or not, but he is only few US bison play daigo/JW before)
I thought Bison is kind of tough to get in, why in some MU he look so free?
So is this game should be defensive or just total trash because Tier Whoring is so important that, you maybe next beach for raid if you stuck when nerf comes?
like nerf for TWINS, I don’t like viper because is very technical and too much mind game and rush, Akuma I can use but hard to apply pressure, but really?
copcom just slap you said your pal are playing this, buy it, and later comes super said yeah we nerf some character to balance game, and yet screw it with TWINS and some S tier that, make people drop their character…
what? is not character is player skill? then tell me why pilot switch their ride? because they are top gun they can, and you stay with old, nerf character and lose since you don’t pilot sht anyway?? Cut this BS I am start learning other character since some S tier knowledge is just so beneficial.
After all I buy any game Bison was in it, he just one of my favorite character…
Watched from start to finish today. Awesome shit. Highlights to me were Spark’s ultimate defensive tactics on BB, Poongko’s perfect on Daigo, Latiff blowing up Tokido, Daigo, and Poongko in a row, Viscant Wesker/Haggar gameplay to get to Phoenix(especially after watching the other 2 Phoenix players get pretty much raped), and the MK top 8 was great to watch too. Lowlights to me were the T6 tourney(honestly is Bob just that broken or something?), Justin basically toying with Noel Brown(I swear it looked like he just didn’t want to blow him up since the friends), and just nitpicking here but the 2nd second set of MK GFs was pretty anti-climatic.
so Latiff viper is that sick…Poongko was real rush master then, who winning this year??
This is Evo. Players are going to play to win. Fei Long is probably the best safe character to use in any tournament.
You can’t blame the player for the game.
Rejoice, for AE balance patch is now confirmed: http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2011/jul/30/ono-announces-ssf4-ae-balance-patch-works/
Oh, and its free
So, I’ll go ahead and say it. MK had probably the most diverse match-ups in the Top 8, compared to the other FGs. Every single MK match had a different character, and it was so much fun to watch. SF, it was good too, but it was pulling off that Tekken feeling with Law and Bob’s in Top 8, just this time with Fei longs and Yuns. It’s your character, play as the characters you like, just understand it will probably translate differently to the spectators. Props to Poongko for R’kellyin Daigo, that was just plain awesome. Anyways, great EVO, makes we wanting to go to EVO 2012 badly so I don’t miss the action.
Guess you’re going to need to get an arcade cab and track down a copy of THIS:

Yeah I know, but you shouldn’t expect much character diversity for AE at an event like Evo.
It is still entertain to watch, just like wrestling, is all preset because you chose weak character, your call.
