Results from Gamespot’s Ultimate Street Fighter Event
I recently had the opportunity to attend Gamespot’s Ultimate Street Fighter Event right here in sunny San Francisco, CA. The event was held to give us a sneak peak at two of Capcom’s upcoming releases: Street Fighter IV arcade cabinets and Street Fighter II: HD Remix for the Xbox 360. Two different tournaments were held for each game, each with 64 competitors throwing down for honor and a chance at $1500. Capcom’s very own Seth Killian and the legendary David Sirlin were in attendance, and though they did not compete in the tournament, they helped run and organize the entire affair.
The first stop of the new Major League Gaming PC circuit took place in San Diego this weekend. Most of the best World of WarCraft players in the world were in attendance. Team Pandemic and SK-Gaming went in as favorites in the prized 3v3 double elimination WoW bracket, but less well known teams took home glory. We chronicle the tournament from start to finish.
