Evo has come and gone.

As a player and fan of street fighter 4 i have never been so hype for a tournament. Yes i have seen other Evo’s but this one was bigger and badder. So many international players came through for all games being played. But as for Ultra street fighter 4 this was the EVO!!! The game being out just a couple of months we got to witness amazing players do amazing things. Louffy from France won it all with Rose. We had 2 top 8 zangiefs and most shocking of all we got to see Daigo the beast and other top players get eliminated early.  Below I am going to post the top 8 videos and you can decide for yourself what you thought of these matches. Thank you to FG on youtube channel for providing the videos. The video is 2 hours long but awesome to watch and learn. Maybe some of the younger players or even older players can see. You can win with anyone its not the character its YOU.

Street Fighter 4 on the pc and more tf2 videos!

The pc gamers be aware that Street Fighter 4 came to pc this Tuesday. Its was $35 bucks on steam.  I think you will be able to purchase the cd as well I am not to sure on that.  Steam saves you the trouble of needing the cd as its a download but there servers can more then have you up and running in no time.  Great thing about it is you get more effects to game play and your xbox controllers are already windows ready, so popping in your 360 sticks to play would not be a problem or shouldn’t be anyways.

More trf 2 videos for you guys below.

Daigo vs nemo

TRF Tournaments 2 in Japan! more Daigo and Mago.

Thanks again to the man lordaboragine for providing these kick ass Japan videos. In this set of videos we see Daigo and Mago work up the brackets to face each other.  There is more videos from this tournament when I get a chance i will post them.  Sorry for the delays in posts to my readers. School and the summer have kept me busy, not to mention Blazblue as well, fun game. Enjoy the videos.

Daigo and Mago are in the house!

Our friend AHOjagi over on youtube posted some videos of Daigo(ryu) and Mago(Sagat) in action.  A lot of great action. Here. If you guys have not seen the dogface show. Seth Killian confirms Daigo is playing 7-8 hours a day of  street fighter 4.

Gootecks has a Balrog tutorial he did for G4. Great stuff.  He also has some ideas on how to play Ryu which he is learning to play. So he counter pick against bad matches that come up against his main Balrog.  Check out gootecks.com.







Today i present you to MAGO(sagat) currently #3 in the rankings in Japan.

Below is Mago playing his Sagat on xbox live on a customized Hori stick supposedly customized to his likings with seimitsu parts.
