Dead or Alive 3 is understandably missing from the list.
Just a note.. none of those videos featured are the grand finals of EVO2K4. Most of them are footage from the top 8 (either winners or losers bracket), but not the grand finals for each game.
The Super Turbo and 3rd Strike finals were by far the best two finals at Evo. ST is greatness. Classic greatness.

As Ferrio mentioned, the grand finals will be available on the Evo DVD which should be available pretty soon. We recorded directly to DVD this year, so our turn around time to getting the DVD released will be much much much shorter compared to last year. (and way way better quality!) Footage is complete and ready to go, we just need to finish up the menus and interface.
That particular ST match wasn't super exciting, but overall the ST finals were awesome. I know several people who disliked ST before, but are now dying to get into the game after watching the tournament finals live. Believe me, 3S's and ST's finals were the best ones.
ST requires hella skill. One mistake in that game and you are fucked due to the insane damage. And btw, that's the basis of O.Sagat's game... O.Sagat relies on a standard fireball uppercut trap. O.Sagat is leagues above N.Sagat. If you aren't familiar with ST, ST has both the Super and Super Turbo versions of each character. (O = Old, N = New) Despite missing a super, O.Sagat gains a much faster fireball with better recovery, a one hit DP, a faster walking speed, and some other general property differences. Most character's new versions are better, but there are a few where the original super version shines. Sagat and Ken in particular come to mind. O.Sagat is just plain dirty!

BUY THE DVDtoohectic said:
Evo staff are the only ones with direct feed. The rest of the stuff is camcorder footage only.... but by attending Evo, one agrees (signed and dated) that all taping is for personal use only and may not be distributed publicly via the internet, dvds, etc etc.
In otherwords, buy the DVD.

Meanwhile Tecmo was giving them some money since they are one of the sponsor of Evo2K4 ( see http://www.evo2k.com/ )
