I actually thought about buying those Evo discs. Are they worth the money? I mean, quality-wise (picture and matches).

Quality is alright, not the best, but the matches are awesome.
Specially the 3rdStrike ones, watching KO go through everybody (Even Daigo,
is pretty darn awesome) his Yun is the best.

Beautiful.

Do those have location footage, or only matches?

evolution.

where so so american players who can only play mvc2 and think they're the best in the world

play against some japanese players like daigo ?

whats the point ?

buy the SBO 1 / 2 dvds then

SBO is a real tournament,evo is pretty mediocre (imo)

plus,the picture quality is garbage

you'd expect something more professional from THE GODS of fighting games

Come on fran, you know that's not true. None of these people go around pretending to be the best in the world. It's an American tournament, and there's plenty more games than just MvC2. There's some great SF players in America.

I wish someone could find some SS2 videos. I'd like to see people going at it in that game.

yes,they're good

but

1)
they're incredibly expensive ( its the norm for dvds in japan,though... )

2)
enterbrain people are greedy bastards

example : sbo number 2

6 games,if i remember correctly ( and i cant be arsed to double check now )

so you think to yourself

"they are definitely going to put out a 2 dvds box with at least 20 + matches for every game,we're talking about dvds here"

no

they released THREE dvds,each one sold separatedly,each containing footage about 2 different games ( priced 6800 Y if i remember well )

so 6800 x 3 + taxes = 20000 + Y = ouch

so you think to yourself,again

"ok ok,but maybe its best this way...each dvd can focus better on game x or y,showing SHITLOADS of matches,maybe even the qualifying rounds"

no

only the semifinals and the final

bottom line :

buy them used from softmap or so for 2500 - 3000 Y

songohan / lwk :

ok,maybe i was being a little too harsh

but there's still some truth in what i wrote

maybe i dont like evo for what it represents ( in my mind )

dumbasses from shoryuken come like that alex valle dude

a really mediocre player

how can you be shit after 10 + years,i wonder...

you always use goddamn RYU and you suck at super x,zero 3,third strike

and he's the kind of person that probably hates snk,because,lets face it...

97 % of americans are like that...

but i bet he thinks he's really good in his mind...

it's just really sad,and sad things make me all bitter and stuff

You got any vid footage of Alex Valle?
IMO all these dvd's are ridiculously priced. I can get good shit on the net match vid wise. These prices have repeatedly pissed me off and I totally agree man.

LA has some wicked good 2002 players. Many of these dudes dont use any style notorious in the US, could be why we have such a mix of good players.

I just wait for some dude to upload these dvd's on the net. Theres always these godly players that own me so ugly, I just choke after getting owned the first round. I played this good dudley user. I won only like 1 of 3 matches, and I considered that bs.

I played Alex Valle last night on XBL. That dude is a fierce opponent. Has a very solid game.

It's about time to Shawn organize a BIG tournament with SNK games.

If those SRK.com guys can do EVO, why can't Shawn do a Big SNK tourney ?

Would be a KOF fest certainly. I'm sure it would be successful. I'd even go there to participate !

Back to topic :

SBO Matches ownz. The CVS2 matches are super cool with plenty of Groove A users. The quality is ok.

EVO = OK, but SBO is "teh roxors".

He did. We played two matches. He rushed my shit down with some badass mixups, footsies, and was linking shit all over the place. I'll admit that there was some lag, but he's definitely better than I am. I had a blast.

Sounds like fun.

My favorite groove is now P groove, been practicing with Ken. I really like him in this. Parrying is bad ass to.
I love this groove man. Funny that I hate A groove so much. Do people whore that groove online?

When I saw my buddy play, the main Grooves I saw being used were C/A/N/K and sometimes P, I never saw anyone use S.

So you know, I'm holding a Garou meet at my place soon. I'm just waiting on a couple of guys to let me know when they're free. You can bring your ass up here and tear us apart in 2k2 with your BC skills. ;)

Hahaha man, I doubt I'll be owning you guys, but I like playing 2002.
I wanna play sonofx badly after reading your views on his shermie.

My BC stuff isnt all that great, but I now midcancel off of most fierces with a good probability. One of my faves is O yash's sC fwdA bc sC fwdA hcb x 2 AC.

I also use Iori's off his fierce, but I can fuck it up when crossing up, rather then a sC bc sC.

IE j bB sB fwd AA hcb c, hcb d, hcb c, hcb d, hcb c dp c maiden masher to qcf x 4 AC, or sdm maiden.

I like yama's to, but I prefer for pressure then anything else.

I'm positive you'd beat the hell out of me in KoF, but I know you'll have a blast with one of the guys that are coming, I hear he's a beast in KoF. Just so you know, it might happen on the 16th and 17th of this month.
