EVO 2016... We eSPN2 now.
-
EVO is a few weeks away and it was just announced that the SFV finals will be televised on ESPN2. Thoughts?
-
It'll be interesting. I always thought that fighters were the easiest competitive genre to watch. The FGC has some really good commentators too so it hopefully won't be a jargon fest. Coupled with SFV being a very straightforward game not much can go wrong, or at least I hope.
-
I think it's good. I could see how it would frustrate or confuse people watching TV though. I imagine most fans will be watching through Twitch.
ESPN has been making an effort recently with MOBAs and CSGO, right?

You bring up something that I thing is crucial for the ESPN 2 broadcast to be successful and that is commentators. Look, James Chen and Ultra David are genuinely the best commentators I have seen when it comes to fighting games. If what ESPN does is not of that caliber, I really don't see it being that successful. I will be watching on Twitch, only because I don't have cable, but I am hopeful that they don't cringe the broadcast up at ESPN.
-
I've been asking around and I have yet to get an answer; Does the ESPN2 broadcast mean no twitch stream?
I do not have ESPN2 or even TV. If It's not going to be streamed on twitch I might have difficulty watching.
-
Any idea if it's on UK channels? We don't get espn
-
The fact that EVO Grand Finals will be in a stadium is just showing how big this is going to be.
We FGC now lol

It is confirmed that the entirety of EVO will be on Twitch.

@TheUltimoGringo Doing good man. Representing Gief and going to as many tournies and sessions as I can amigo! As you can see in this match =P
-
Solid, did you make it to CEO?
-
No...out of all the ones I've missed, this CEO was the most amazing ;__;
However, I will be at TFC 2016 this October in Raleigh. I'm looking forward to it as I had a blast at the last one =D
-
If they want to be legit, they should have the people behind it do stuff for them. Mike Ross, James Chen, Maximilian, Yipes etc etc..
-
@-Solid Dude, I was the auctioneer for the TEKKEN 7 auction and a person bought Nina for $205. TEKKEN players are nuts.
Still haven't found a character to play in V yet. No one is fun.
-
@TheUltimoGringo WHAT?!!? $205!??!?! DANG MAN! I thought the highest I heard so far was $160 for D'Vorah.
Man...I've always had bad luck when it comes to CEO; I've been wanting to go since 2011 and everytime I thought I was able, something...FREAKING something has to happen...;__;
Btw, I hear ya on V. I'm just grinding it out. I think by next year and season 2's characters come out, it'll be the game it's suppose to be.
-

@Sleepychino69 Yo Sleepy's here. Now it's EVO.

Really intense play here though, I wish we had access to the brackets being updated.
That said, FlashMetroid's reactions is insane...I haven't bought that CPT Tour Bundle yet. I just have mixed feelings on it so far...
Also, I finally beat survival hard with Gief. Feels good man ;__;
