Sure, who doesn’t want to get their hands on Street Fighter IV more than a month before it’ll be in stores? Well, Capcom is offering some PlayStation.Blog readers the chance to do just that, later this week in Las Vegas. Better yet, your Dragon Punches, Flash Kicks, and That-Thing-Vega-Does-Where-He-Jumps-Off-The-Edge-Of-The-Screen-And-Suplexes-Fools will count for Team PlayStation in a friendly bout vs the readers of Microsoft’s Major Nelson!
Here’s how it works: We’ll hold a tournament on the PLAYSTATION 3 version of Street Fighter IV to determine the best PlayStation player. This fantastic and charismatic individual will be awarded a Collector’s Edition Street Fighter IV, before taking on the Microsoft winner. This person will then be victorious, because they’re just that special. Capiche?
Do you think you’re that person? Well, if you’re 18 or older *and* will be in Las Vegas this Saturday (January 10th) *and* know how to pull off a Super, email iwannaplaystreetfighteriv@gmail.com with your name, PSN ID, and why you think you should have a chance to compete. I’ll be in touch.
Please keep in mind that only 20 players can compete on behalf of PlayStation, as room and time are limited. Each chosen competitor will be allowed to bring one guest to witness their moment in the sun. More details here.
If you can’t make it to Vegas, look for updates on Capcom’s Unity Blog, and right here on the PSB a week from today. Good luck, and remember: You must defeat Sheng Long to stand a chance!
Cool
The console war just got serious
:o
Our controllers versus theirs?! No contest!
Too bad I won’t be in Vegas.
Wish I lived in Vegas.
So could this be cross platform online for 4? Problary not:(
Give us some Savage Moon already…with a side order of Burn Zombie Burn:D
uh. Are you serious? Why oh why are you giving a chance for Xbox and Playstation fanboys to kick eachothers’ throats. Expect every blog and forum to be flamed like crazy. I think it’s a terrible idea. I want to emphasize TERRIBLE.
In my experience, the type of people that flame the boards behave completely differently in person. Or they stay home.
