Fighting Games Weekly | August 6-12

Would people be interested in a streamed P4A tourney for FGCGAF? I'm kind of interested in hosting one. I can't do a Day 1 tourney due to work, but if people wanna do some sets on Friday or Saturday, I'm down for hosting a lobby (most likely PS3 unless 360's online ends up being fine at launch)

Unless something comes up, I'm interested.

Dacidbro was the most *known* player on the Skull Girls bandwagon.

P4A is DOOMED!

P4A was dead the instant BBCP was announced. You had a nice -2 day run, P4A.

Sorry not really interested in online tournaments.
To be honest, I'm not a big fan of online either, and I look down on online tournaments, but mashing week 1 with some other GAF P4U players doesn't seem too bad. I wouldn't take it seriously though, and online tournaments seem like they'd be a hassle to run.

Neat. I hope he likes it.
 
TA Frutsy confirmed on his Facebook that he will be in the "USA vs The World" UMVC3 5v5 representing Mexico/World.

Also, P4A is hella fun. Currently doing the story mode content, I will be really biased towards it here on GAF since the Persona games is pretty much my favorite RPG games, but I'll be pushing it pretty hard in my local scene. AWWYEAH.jpg

Yep, pretty much why I wanna run it, it'd just be fun mashing and finding out new things with fellow GAF players in a non-serious tourney.

Tentative Date/Time (open for feedback): 10 August (Friday) 9PM EST, I'll throw up a challonge link for signups later tonight.
 
I just realized my Newegg preorder probably will not arrive on Tuesday. I'm going to have to pick it up from Walmart at midnight or something. I took Tuesday off! :D
 
Doesn't AE only get 25-30?

Well it's probably temporary, but AE numbers have gone up quite a bit recently(41 last week, out drew Marvel). This of course is probably due to the Capcom 25th Anniversary Tournament being this weekend. This Big 2 should be one of the biggest in a while IMO with new heads for Persona 4 and a lot of SF4 guys coming out to practice for the 25th Anniversary Tournament.
 
I don't agree. But BBCP 2CST is going to smash it once released.

I hope it doesn't. This is the first mainstream airdasher that I've wanted to play semi-seriously. If this doesn't work out, I'll just have to stick with Street Fighter and poverty games/UNIB if that ever comes out because I wasn't really interested in Continuum Shift.
 
BB:CP <--- lol

Wont be out til december, console version probably wont be out til summer. Not much of a big split. Plus BB and P4A don't really play alike so fans of P4A wont ditch it to play BB and vice versa

Don't you expect P4A to still be around by then? Also DacidBro, James Xie and a few other guys are huge supporters of BB and P4A. I'm sure that's their market...

Yeah, but that doesn't mean it's an ArcSys property.
They've done other licensed fighters like Fist of the North Star and Sengoku Basra X.

What? mind fucked....
 
I thought Atlus was just the publisher, but P4A is develop by Arc System Works.

edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persona_4_Arena

yea...

I mean but the decisions to produce and publish these games is up to the publisher. Arc System work was contracted by atlus to development persona 4 arena for atlus that doesn't mean they have to put a stop to their own internal projects. The decision to release persona at this time was atlus' and the decision to develop bbcp was arcs'. Arc also developed Sengoku Basara X for Capcom.

Ah okay got it...
 
Oh...well, are BlazBlue fans excited for their umpteenth installment of BlazBlue?

EDIT: I guess they are considering that thread size about the new game....Why can't there be another Marvel Vs Capcom 3 installment :-(

Capcom is too busy eeking money out of its fans with $40 expansions that add 12 new characters to make a full-blown sequel that costs the same amount but adds 3 characters, none of which anyone wanted.

That thread is mostly jokes about the next update and dlc characters. There is a location test for it today though.

Why would you want one? Don't you think UMVC3 puts the series in a good place? BB is basically stagnant in the US, so I'd imagine that this is pretty good news for them.

Yup I'm excited, the system changes look great. I honestly didn't really like a lot of the core systems in CS

Oh yeah, lol I'm just in Capcom update withdrawal right now I guess.

EDIT: Tho I'd think UMVC3 might need at least a patch.
 
I am expecting to get my ass whoop in the NYC SF tournament this Saturday but planning to have lots of fun. I need P4:A dammit!!!

Did Capcom announce they're new game over the weekend???
