Okay, I double checked if there was a thread for this game or not, then I got lazy.

Anyway, I think from previous searched I got the impression from some of you, that you guys were over SF Series and had moved on, but I like to pay my homage (as well as many countless hours of quarters at arcades and random landromats around SJ and beyond...)

Anyway, since the console version is out on 2/17 anyone planning to pick this up on PS3 or Xbox360?

or most of you (ironically myself included) arent going to bother buying it or the special edition which isnt worth $60 or $90(special ed)...

but the only reason why i started this thread is because I found out yesterday that Gamestop is hosting their own Tournaments * at parcicpating locations * on:

Saturday
Feb 21st
2pm * (arrive early they told me)
* Random participating locations
Stevens Creek Gamestop in San Jose/Santa Clara. - I was at and yes their holding it.

only other thing I thought was interesting that all finalist from this Gamestop Tourney will be given "Bids" to compete in the EVO Tourney 2009.

I figure that would be worth mentioning, but I havent even played SFIV yet, so I'd be pretty ballsy to enter a tourney in a game that I've never played before...

Not like ive never done that before and looked like a friggin idiot...

*cough cough *

I would go on the 21st, but I'll probably have bday plans and rather bury myself in booze and boobs for the day thanks. :P

Hmmm, hopefully they have a tourny out here in the valley. I'll probably lose, but I'll at least know where I stand in the valley when it comes to SF. I'm also pretty decent at Guilty Gear, and I'm practicing at Melty Blood right now as well.

Yah, they were giving out those head bands at Comic Con Last year.
While supplies last of course.  knowing most of the gamestops in my area, they wont wear red in fear of getting shot.

thats how life is in the East Side San Jo ... yo.  werd. >_<

In all seriousness, yeah SF4 is finally on console (Yay, not sucky Dan). I'm not as hype as I really should be.

Jerry

Whats wrong with Dan?

I actually sorta like him. I think.  :)

I'll probably come watch and enter on a whim.  I wonder if they'd provide sticks.  I'm guessing not... *Busts $120 Hori Stick!* 

About Chun-Li...I've been singing that song at school.  And I swear to god, those combos work.

Or you could read the rules and know they are using console pads only. Bringing your own stick is not allowed as it allows for disadvantages and stuff, as well... would delay the tournament drastically.

I'll have the game by the end of the night!!!

I was joking (I myself don't even own a PS3/Xbox360).

Now I will commence by reading the rules.

I am currently building my own arcade stick but I keep lagging on it

Sounds like something Dhalsim would say: " I [yoga] flame everyone "

Still makes me semi cringe thinking about the new live action movie starring Kristen Kruek as Chun Li. :P

return it for a sanwa ;)

I'll probably end up building another one if I like how this one looks

Then I'll look into wireless, LEDs, and sanwa parts.
