I like the idea of a torrent or dvd. Especially because here in germany some matches “air” at around 4-5 AM which is not do-able on sunday -> monday because of obvious reasons like work
Agree. I missed the last 4 hours of stream, because I couldn’t stay awake at fucking 4AM in the morning.
Why didn’t they think of the needs of people watching this from other countries, who can’t stay awake the whole fucking night for this? EVO is a global tournament, not an US one.
I wanna say secretly I think this is why they chose ustream because it’s easier to control archived recordings, even though JTV was the better option but I dunnu. Still weird how they would choose ustream over JTV, good qualit stream but JTV’s layout seems better. It could be cause they get more advert support for more revenue, who knows…
I do hope they consider uploading archives, I think on the evo DVD’s they only show highlights of the tourney and don’t have all of the matches? Would be kind of disappointing if that was the case as I want to watch the whole thing and not just some of it.
There were so many great matches, I’m glad someone was recording it. I’d love to see the torrents available, especially if there’s no sales or anything for the content, I don’t see why it’s not done. But then I guess I don’t know all of the details and technicalities.
i was really looking forward to the sf4 matches, but i was indisposed friday… now i have the whole saturday to myself but i don’t give two shits about marvel.
What do you mean? How would they benefit from NOT making the replays available? They could charge money to access the replays, as per the previous years (either in DVD format, or via a deal with somewhere like IGN).
Im going to be pretty damned pissed if they dont upload the archives. I live in Sweden, 9 god damned hours before Las Vegas time. And i’ve worked all weekend so im planning to watch EVO on my days off monday and tuesday. I’ve written stuff about EVO, two long articles, on a swedish gamingsite and I want to follow up by writing a third one with my own commentary of the SSF-pools and finals. They are screwing over a big part of the international community and us fans if the archives dont show up.
I see there is one like 9 hour long archive up now of MvC3, but who gives a shit about that. I’d like to see everything they recorded from SSF last friday.
The entirety of Day 2 was archived into ONE SINGLE VIDEO yesterday. That’s over ten hours. Also, it is impossible to SKIP anything. You can’t go to the parts you missed and watch just that, because the video will just stop playing entirely and run an ad.
So, can anyone PLEASE upload the EC vs. WC 5 vs. 5 somewhere for me? I’m afraid to ask or look anywhere else because I don’t want the outcome spoiled.
