Meh, buncha nerds in a crowded indoor space for multiple days. What do you expect?

I will say, the fighting game community has some of the best personalities by far. Evo never fails to produce some great moments.

Well........  if you think about any LARGE number,  the odds of SOMETHING at all GOOD happening increases..

So.... For example,  if Tp4 = Goodtime 100% of the time... yet it takes 1000 Evo members to produce 100% good time..

Then  Tp4 is still more Good-Time efficient.. (http://www.cute-factor.com/images/smilies/onion/th_113_.gif)

The USF4 final 8 were amazing.

And the best part of the entire thing was in the 2nd last round of the last game, Momichi's Razer fightstick broke and cost him a round, bringing it down to literally the final round of the tournament, winner take all.

Ever since I've seen the documentary, I've been following the Smash scene. I've never played a Smash game or any other fighting game for longer than 10 minutes, and don't understand most of the lingo and commentary, but still enjoy the atmosphere and the stuff happening beyond the game.

What I didn't like was locking Source stream quality behind a paywall. The lower bandwidth and reduced framerate take away quite a bit from the viewing experience. Apparently, they did this last year as well, so nothing new I guess.
