  1. 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

    1. @rarity Yeah pretty much

      Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:54:38 UTC from web
    2. @rarity What is EVO?

      Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:54:48 UTC from web
      1. @twistedspectre The biggest fighting game tournament of the year.

        Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:55:21 UTC from web
        1. @rarity Ow, ok.

          Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:56:53 UTC from web
      2. @twistedspectre evo is a place where everyone can have their game there as long as it doesn't feature ponies :P

        1. @prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline HA!, them Haters!

          Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:58:22 UTC from web
        2. @prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline RIP in piece Fighting is Magic ;~;

          Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:58:30 UTC from web
        3. @prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline It wasn't even the fact that it had ponies in it, Hasbro decided to be mangoess and order a CnD.

          1. @flamingpandaomg I have a feeling the whole thing with EVO was the reason they got C&D'd anyway

            1. @redenchilada @flamingpandaomg If you want to ignore copyrights, be discrete about it

              Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:03:51 UTC from web
            2. @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.

              Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:04:01 UTC from web
          2. @flamingpandaomg Why would Hasbro C&D it if not for the fact it had ponies in?

            Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:03:37 UTC from web
            1. @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.

    3. @rarity It's exactly the Super Bowl for me. I only care about fighting games during EVO.

      Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:55:09 UTC from web
      1. @flamingpandaomg What is EVO?

        Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:56:09 UTC from web
        1. @twistedspectre Read what Rarity just said.

          Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:57:03 UTC from web
          1. @flamingpandaomg Yeah, but what game/

            Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:57:40 UTC from web
          2. @flamingpandaomg Yeah, but what game?

            Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:57:45 UTC from web
            1. @twistedspectre Well there's Super Smash Bros, Marvel vs Capcom, and I'm sure there's something like Tekken or whatever thrown in too.

              Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:58:57 UTC from web
              1. @flamingpandaomg How do I join/watch?

                Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:00:01 UTC from web
                1. @twistedspectre It's already over man. It only happens once a year.

                  Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:00:28 UTC from web
                  1. @flamingpandaomg Darn, well, what time of year?

                    Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:01:52 UTC from web
                    1. @twistedspectre It was a couple days back.

                      Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:02:18 UTC from web
              2. @flamingpandaomg EVO had SSF4AE, Marvel, Tekken Tag 2, Injustice, Smash, Persona 4, and maybe SKullgirls but I don't remember

                Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:00:16 UTC from web
                1. @rarity There was like 20 minutes of the new Killer Instinct game in there too. Looked like spammy garbage.

                  Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:01:39 UTC from web
                  1. @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

                    Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:03:41 UTC from web
            2. @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.

              Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:01:09 UTC from web
              1. @fortecadenza @rarity Potato Knishes, I forgot Injustice. I remember all of the Superman laser spam now.

                Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:02:08 UTC from web
              2. @fortecadenza Why do people even care about MK anymore

                Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:04:00 UTC from web
                1. @rarity Because it's still more fun to watch then Injustice, and Ed Boon pays a grapesload of money to get his games there.

                  Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:06:02 UTC from web
      2. @flamingpandaomg @redenchilada Too bad you guys missed out on the shirtless grand finals at the latest Curleh Mustache

        Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:57:10 UTC from web
    4. @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.

      Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 20:59:55 UTC from web
      1. @fortecadenza I utterly suck at SSF4.

        Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:00:53 UTC from web
      2. @fortecadenza you can only get better with practice. And Vanilla? oh god. Who do you play in that?

        Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:01:34 UTC from web
        1. @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.

          Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:04:05 UTC from web
          1. @fortecadenza It's not too bad but the community is god awful. And sadly that community has carried over to Injustice

            Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:06:02 UTC from web
          2. @fortecadenza Ultra looks so hype! I just hope they buff my character.

            Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:08:12 UTC from web
            1. @rarity If I remember correctly, you play Zangief? Maybe that was someone else on here.

              Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:09:19 UTC from web
              1. @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.

                Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:11:19 UTC from web
                1. @rarity Vega, eh? Don't have much experience against him, there are barely any Vega players in Vanilla.

                  Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:17:14 UTC from web
                  1. @fortecadenza he's a weird style for sure.

                    Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:18:50 UTC from web
                    1. @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.

                      Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:21:51 UTC from web
                      1. @fortecadenza no sagat?

                        Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:22:55 UTC from web
                        1. @rarity No Sagat. Not a lot of Ken players either.

                          Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:23:57 UTC from web
                          1. @fortecadenza But Vanilla Sagat is so broken!

                            Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:24:44 UTC from web
                            1. @rarity Most people in vanilla don't bother learning characters that can't Tatsu.

                              Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:25:59 UTC from web
                              1. @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

                                Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:27:30 UTC from web
                                1. @rarity Yeah, AE is £12 at the moment, but I've spent too much on the Steam Summer sale.

                                  Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:30:21 UTC from web
                                  1. @fortecadenza I had a few bucks for the summer sale but bought 3rd Strike on xbox instead

                                    Wednesday, 17-Jul-13 21:31:18 UTC from web
