I think it's kinda funny seeing you guys talk about EVO. Is it like the Super Bowl for you guys? AKA you don't follow the scene but watch the big event. Just kinda interesting

@rarity Yeah pretty much
-
@rarity What is EVO?
-
@rarity It's exactly the Super Bowl for me. I only care about fighting games during EVO.
-
@twistedspectre The biggest fighting game tournament of the year.
-
@flamingpandaomg What is EVO?
-
@rarity Ow, ok.
-
@twistedspectre Read what Rarity just said.
-
@flamingpandaomg @redenchilada Too bad you guys missed out on the shirtless grand finals at the latest Curleh Mustache
-
@twistedspectre evo is a place where everyone can have their game there as long as it doesn't feature ponies :P
-
@flamingpandaomg Yeah, but what game/
-
@flamingpandaomg Yeah, but what game?
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline HA!, them Haters!
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline RIP in piece Fighting is Magic ;~;
-
@twistedspectre Well there's Super Smash Bros, Marvel vs Capcom, and I'm sure there's something like Tekken or whatever thrown in too.
-
@rarity I've been meaning to really get into fighting games for a while now. I play loads of fighting games, and vanilla SF4 is probably my most played game right now, but I'm terrible at most of them. As a spectator, I mostly only watch Evo. I watched the Street Fighter 25th anniversary tournament, though.
-
@flamingpandaomg How do I join/watch?
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline It wasn't even the fact that it had ponies in it, Hasbro decided to be mangoess and order a CnD.
-
@flamingpandaomg EVO had SSF4AE, Marvel, Tekken Tag 2, Injustice, Smash, Persona 4, and maybe SKullgirls but I don't remember
-
@twistedspectre It's already over man. It only happens once a year.
-
@fortecadenza I utterly suck at SSF4.
-
@twistedspectre Tekken Tag 2, Super Street Fighter 4 AE, Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, Super Smash Bros Melee, Mortal Kombat, Injustice, King of Fighters 13, and Persona 4 Arena. There might be a few I'm missing.
-
@fortecadenza you can only get better with practice. And Vanilla? oh god. Who do you play in that?
-
@flamingpandaomg I have a feeling the whole thing with EVO was the reason they got C&D'd anyway
-
@rarity There was like 20 minutes of the new Killer Instinct game in there too. Looked like spammy garbage.
-
@flamingpandaomg Darn, well, what time of year?
-
@fortecadenza @rarity Potato Knishes, I forgot Injustice. I remember all of the Superman laser spam now.
-
@twistedspectre It was a couple days back.
-
@flamingpandaomg Why would Hasbro C&D it if not for the fact it had ponies in?
-
@flamingpandaomg Oh, the new Killer Instinct. Let us reflect upon the other classics made by the company making it, shall we? http://i.imgur.com/DQjnTkd.jpg
-
@redenchilada @flamingpandaomg If you want to ignore copyrights, be discrete about it
-
@fortecadenza Why do people even care about MK anymore
-
@redenchilada Possibly. Still cherrieses me off that the CnD was issued so late in the development. If it was killed quickly before any hype was built up, I wouldn't have cared as much. At least they're still making it with new characters made by Lauren Faust.
-
@rarity There are a few people that still play it, and most of them are even worse than me. When I bought it, I had only just gotten interested in fighting games, the only one I owned was MK9. I bought Vanilla because it was the cheapest fighter on Amazon at the time. I'm probably gonna buy Ultra on disc when it comes out.
-
@rarity Because it's still more fun to watch then Injustice, and Ed Boon pays a grapesload of money to get his games there.
-
@fortecadenza It's not too bad but the community is god awful. And sadly that community has carried over to Injustice
-
@thelastgherkin That's not what I was meaning. I interpreted what @prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline said about any game being in EVO unless it had ponies as saying that that's the reason why it's not in EVO, when in reality it was due to Hasbro's C&D. As far as I'm aware EVO didn't care that it had ponies in it, since the last thing I heard Fighting is Magic had a spot in EVO, just not as the main event.
-
@fortecadenza Ultra looks so hype! I just hope they buff my character.
-
@rarity If I remember correctly, you play Zangief? Maybe that was someone else on here.
-
@fortecadenza I used to play him, so if I mentioned it a long time ago it was probably me. Me and the big Red guy didn't really mesh, though. Now I play Vega.
-
@fortecadenza me me me
-
@rarity Vega, eh? Don't have much experience against him, there are barely any Vega players in Vanilla.
-
@fortecadenza he's a weird style for sure.
-
@rarity People don't like to experiment in Vanilla, over half the players I've fought played Ryu. A few Zangiefs, a few Seths, but there's not much variation.
-
@fortecadenza no sagat?
-
@rarity No Sagat. Not a lot of Ken players either.
-
@fortecadenza But Vanilla Sagat is so broken!
-
@rarity Most people in vanilla don't bother learning characters that can't Tatsu.
-
@fortecadenza if you're on XBOX, I'm pretty sure there's still a big sale on Capcom games going on. AE is $15, I think
-
@rarity Yeah, AE is £12 at the moment, but I've spent too much on the Steam Summer sale.
-
@fortecadenza I had a few bucks for the summer sale but bought 3rd Strike on xbox instead
