The big difference between majors in japan and america is in japan you have to register with your character and you can only play that character throughout the whole tournament. Should make for some good matches.

Funny part about that documentary is the "what would you say to capcom" part and how everyone said to make a better fighting game, etc and a couple of years later we now have SF4.

If next year's Evo is at Vegas again next year me and my friends are going to plan a trip and watch the action live since next year will possibly be even more nuts.

Just bought my stick for SF4 online, so excited. I wonder if this means I'll finally be able to master Vega and C. Viper!

If anyone wants to see me getting owned by a Gen player at Evo...

This match was in pools. I went on to win the rest of my matches to qualify for semis and he didn't, so I guess that makes me feel a little better =P

Like many SF4 neophytes I have a hard-on for Daigo and all the epic matches and drama he's been associated with. But can someone point me towards some more poignant videos in regard to his epic matches and perhaps beefs he had with Wong or other players or anything else interesting in regards to the background of these top tier players ; or any other games even where there are compelling real-life characters who dominate their opposition etc? I dig this ****

Question to those with more stick experience...

I have a Madcatz TE fightstick, and am having a lot of trouble consistently pulling off QCF/QCB of all things. I just switched from balltop to battop and that seemed to help, but would replacing the square gate with an octagonal (or round?) gate help a lot?

Are there any drawbacks to ditching the square gate if I don't play any charge characters at all?

First off congrats on getting into semis! Yeb almost beat chris hu if it makes you feel any better. He just made 2 mistakes where he didnt punish a shoryuken and 1 where he messed up his combo where he would have won. Chris Hu a chinese transplant that is easily top 3 in east coast ryu's. Here's the match

Arcadehustla is a very good look at the east coast scene with good interviews. If you like hype matches check out the videos with Manny and his money matches.

The shorcut of the documentary I Got Next is out. It's mostly strung together clips. It's ok but hopefully will be better after they add in EVO and SBO and release the long cut in the winter.

Yeah man that guy didn't miss any combos when he played me but missed a lot of stuff vs. Chris. I was in the room Hu was chillin at that night playing some money matches but I didn't get a chance to play him. ($25 random select matches baby)

I was getting pretty predictable with my fireballs though, he caught a lot of free jump-ins because of that. Oh well.

Hands down the best justin wong money match to come out of evo.

Bonus footage of the floE's (the guy who won neweggs big online tournament) money match. He chokes here though.

They should make fat people race as an official event at the next evo. It never gets old watching them trip.

Also the room matches are good watches:

Agreed. Wish they showed the entire last round!

Anyone know who won?

apparently daigo won the last round to win that match 5-4, and then they had a rematch and daigo won 5-0

marn is very impressive though. I don't think I've seen a better Viper.

Tetsu is a leading Fuerte player in Japan. Search in google and sort by newest -

Don't know much about Vega. You can search this site: http://streetfighterdojo.com/sf4/index.html for pretty much any match-up and a list of top players.
