Hi, my name is Glenn and I lead Get Your Tournament. Not only do I like long walks on beaches, oranges and the San Francisco Giants, I love going to tournaments and watching all the action. I hope you enjoy all the interviews and updates. Go here if you want to ask a question about this site or life in general.
In this episode we cover a few more system mechanics before covering Alisa Bosconovitch and Lars Alexanderson in depth! The entire episode is quite long, so I’ll be staggering the release. Hours upon hours of encoding/uploading, so it will still be a few days before the entire thing is up. I’ll edit this post as the rest is uploaded. Subscribe to LevelUpYourGame on YouTube or follow LevelUpYourGame on twitter to get more immediate updates.
GamePro magazine has gameplay footage of Street Fighter IV for the iPhone, so check it out below. Seems like the ultras have their own cut scene, instead of it being blended into the game, like how it is with all the other versions.
The game will sell for $9.99. There will be eight characters: Ken, Ryu, Abel, Bison/Dictator, Dhalsim, Chun Li, Blanka and Guile.
So yes indeed, get ready for those iPhone side tournaments!
If you're one of those looking for some Soul Calibur IV competition, the guys at AllisFighter are running the "Rule 15 of Fight Club" Soul Calibur IV tournament on March 6. It was originally supposed to be this past weekend but it was moved back.
It's going to be an online tournament, so signup now on AllisFighter. There's going to be competitions for both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. You have to be a member of the site to participate.
A lot of people asked me to put this match up first, and your wish has been granted. This is Sherry Jenix vs Josh P in a preliminary contest early during Sunday's Sunroute Cup tournament.
The match went three rounds. Enjoy.
If you want to see more videos, go to the YouTube portal.
I really hope there’s another Sunroute Cup in the future. This was a great 3-day tournament. Even though I only went for the final day, the word I got from other people that had attended was that the other two days were a very cool scene.
Sunday was the capper, with talent coming from various parts of the nation. Marn and Justin Wong turned out to be the final two standing, with Justin claiming the title in a very fast manner.
Hopefully you’ll get a chance in the next couple of days to check out some of the footage from the tournament. Meanwhile, onto the recap:
Title match result Justin Wong 3, Marn 0
Match stats First-hit win percentage: Overall 42.8 percent, Justin Wong 75.0 percent, Marn 0 percent. Rounds won: Justin Wong 6, Marn 1 Lead changes: 0 Average time: 36.2 seconds
The title match was over when... … Justin blocked a Marn thunder knuckle and countered with a standing fierce to win the second round of Game 2. Had he gotten hit, the match would have been 1-1, and things might have been different. Instead, Justin didn’t lose another round the rest of the way.
Player of the tournament Amir. He went 4-2 and finished in the top five, beating Ken I to get there. His strength of schedule was .667. Out of the top five, only Marn had a higher strength of schedule (.692).
Other notes: Is there a Justin effect? He played six different opponents. There were four of them that, after they lost to Justin, immediately lost their next match. Also, it was great to see Zangief give us some good analysis of his match, of which he lost to Sherry Jenix’s C. Viper.
SIMI VALLEY - I'm here for Day 3 of the Sunroute Cup, where the Street Fighter IV singles tournament is scheduled to take place. There are more than 60 competitors that have signed up to participate.
We'll be doing updates throughout the day on our Twitter portal. In addition, we'll be capturing some footage of the tournament and will try to put it up as fast as possible; if not, then you'll have to wait until Monday. =)
We'll post some of the more important updates here as the tournament progresses.
UPDATE: We won't be uploading videos until late tonight, guaranteed Monday morning.
SECOND UPDATE: Here are both halves of the bracket as of 6:30 p.m. Part 1 and Part 2
The guys at Live on Three will be back on the mic for their weekly show today, a little bit later than normal -- 3 p.m. PT. They'll be talking with Alex Valle and Jimmy Nguyen about next weekend's big Level|Up tournament.
During the show, the guys will likely talk to Alex and Jimmy about the tournament, what it's all about and what's to possibly come in the future. Also, expect some Super Street Fighter IV discussion.
Other topics to be discussed on Live on Three include StarCraft 2, possible ESL sponsorship changes, and MLG's upcoming combines.
Capcom earlier this morning put together a page on their blog highlighting most of the new media that's come out regarding the new Super Street Fighter IV characters revealed earlier this week.
Most of it has already been made public; if you're into art, there's some new pictures of Dudley, Ibuki and Makoto. There's gameplay footage and screenshots as well.
Here's some gameplay footage featuring Dudley vs. Sagat.
