Darkstalkers collection has been confirmed for Japan for PSN and XBL, eventhubs.com has more details, but it's good to see that japan won't be left out.
...and that was a rather fast announcement only what 2-3 weeks since the collection was announced? Wowza...

At any rate time for some top notch Japanese matches~
If you missed them, here are some Garou and LB2 matches from a week or so ago:

Your welcome mate, consider subscribing to the game a-cho channel at least that way you have a quick way to watch them whenever u have the time.
i mostly make these posts as 'heads up' for anyone interesed and to get some GAFfers to at least watch games they don't see much of.

What did Bum have to say about PSASBR?

He is a former smash player after all.

I'm gonna assume he hated it.
Click to expand...

He doesn't like that you have to user supers to kill, but he thinks people should wait and see how the final version (not the beta) plays before making a judgement. If the game has good mechanics for high level play then it has a good chance of being at Evo. Tournaments will be 2v2, with one player rushing down to build meter and the other setting up for kills. There's no point in talking about tiers yet, but he's gonna use Big Daddy.

I tried almost every fighting game I could back in the day(almost everything capcom and snk made and more) so I love most of the old videos you post man. The new stuff... I have less and less time to get into that nowadays. I might get depressed if I suscribe to that yt channel, I'd rather choose from your posts. Thanks again!
 
Bum says he may stream tomorrow evening but he's gonna stream tuesday evening at 6PM EST for sure. Aw yeah.

A Skullgirls weekly tournament is going to be streamed at http://www.twitch.tv/eightysixed on Oct. 25 at 7pm PST / 10PM EST. Salty Cupcakes. Can we get that in the OP?
 
This was discussed a little earlier, but RayRay talked some more tonight about how he's looking at Viper, Dante, and Doom as possible replacements for Ryu. He noted that Dante is the hardest to use out of those three.
 
It's not old school if his name is P. Diddy in the title.

It went from Puff Daddy - > Puffy - > Sean Combs (went back to his real name for the hell of it) - > P. Diddy > Diddy
 
PASBRAR or whatever the fuck it is could well
be at evo. Can't hurt to grab a Sony money hat, would rather that then taking up stream time talking about shit upcoming games... Like playstation all-stars.

It'll also be f2p by then or at least free on ps+.

Canada's largest major, most well known as being an international battleground for Street Fighter

Very diplomatic of you.

Also sfxt will be at evo. I smell a bandwagon brewing. If there is one thing the fgc does best, it is riding those babies into town.

The guys at EVO would probably rather grab that 50 bucks registration fee per player than whatever pathetic sponsorship money Sony can give. ATM even hardcore members of the Sony Defense Force seemed to think this PASBRAR is shaping to be a trainwreck.

And there wouldn't be a SFxT bandwagon, that bandwagon has crashed a long time ago. The only way a SFxT bandwagon can happen is if people get hyped playing and watching it, and that's not going to happen without a SFxT 2nd impact.
 
Champ just got his shit wrecked two straight games by DarkSydePhil in MvC. It's pretty fucking hilarious to watch. After every loss he takes swigs off this weird boxed mango drink, it looks like he's drinking from an oversized container of lighter fluid.
 
I picked Fat Princess in sony smash bros and I ended up playing as Sly Cooper in the actual match.

That's like the worst glitch ever

Canada Cup having a paid stream again?
Click to expand...

Yes they are, but my understanding is that the guys at CCG are extremely embarrassed and unhappy about the 8.95 last year, plus angry at the streamers who screwed up. This year they got TTT_RXS (Canadian Spooky) and Offcast to stream the games and they have promised that our viewer experience at home wouldn't be damaged by ad spamming.

But I heard that UMvC3 will be 2 out of 3 which would be rather WTF if true.
 
Champ trying to run shit at MvC online (and getting chumped) is maybe the most fun I've ever had watching this dude do anything.

Arturo & Champ finally found each other. Champ already complaining that Art is a top tier whore.
 
Art's stream right now is up there with like, the first season of Incredible Adventures. Just him drunk off his ass laughing like a loon at how mindfucked Champ is? Satisfying.
