    Lol. I wonder what you have to be to be a Street Fighter game commentator. That's like lower than High School sports commentator which are sometime run by high school kids

    Wow, that Street Fighter 2 HD Remix finale was sooooo very EPIC!!!! Kudos to Paul E.! He had the strategy planned out from the beginning. Acting like he couldn't play...lolz!

    Dear Gamespot,


    Please change that sorry excuse of a cameraman.
    02:36 whats that all about. Why weren't full screen videos shown like in part 1-3.

    Great final fight for SF4. Too bad the last match was lame.

    Paul E. play SF4 then talk. When SF4 is out, SF2 is dead.

    I rarely watch these video special things anymore, but was intrigued to see what SFIV looked like... what a mistake. Its also a damn shame that the presenters and commentators cant live upto previous presenters in terms of wit AND humility, what a bunch of egos... Gamespot is really starting to turn me off

  • X-OPHER

    Posted Feb 14, 2009 5:16 pm GMT

    I can't believe the commentator and camera man got that gig...what a pair of losers. I would love to be there to show them some 'dodge kick Shenanigans'. So many talented people in the world and they land these two nerds.

    I'm very happy that gamespot put on this tournament, I would love to see more of these kinds of tournaments in the future. Just want to say congratulations to the winners (regardless of whether you like their style of play or not) and say thanks to all the other entrants. I've got my copy of SF4 from Japan so I'm gonna practice a lot and take on people from around the world when I get better. Hopefully I can play against the players from this tournament.
    Just a little request to gamespot for future tournaments, everyone one here has already echoed their feelings about the poor camerawork for the final match. I hope the next time gamespot puts on a tournament like this they can rectify that mistake because we fans really want to be able to watch the matches. Thanks again.

    best game ever

  • gahzoo

    Posted Feb 13, 2009 6:56 pm GMT

    And pimperjones, yes that guy was a noob.

    But that doesn't mean you get to act like a jerk.

    Seriously, if you act like that in real life, I doubt ANYBODY would like to be with you.

    Wow, I just noticed that guy's named was Jesus, idc if that isn't how you say it, his name is still Jesus.

    Great tournament to watch, thanks for posting the series!

    A couple comments for the next time around:

    1. For the camera man - please! **Show us the game** - we don't want to see the commentators faces talking while the guys are playing. Also, we don't want to see the game from 10 feet away! Give us a direct connect to the video! It's like watching the superbowl and having the tv station concentrate on the spectators in the stadium for the whole game.

    2. You may want to think about doing something like this online so that players from all over can compete!

    LOL, "That's the money maker so far"

    It sucks the commentator is right over their heads ...

    Thanks to Gamespot for the coverage. Too bad the competitors only got to play 1 match, there's too much luck involved with that...

    EPIC, doesnt get much better than that, the pinnacle of video game competitivness.

    rafjag,
    you basically said, "with the best characters in the game" I could beat anyone. >_>
    Being #2 out of 64 people in Street Fighter 4 is still an excellent achievment. They even say in the video how John wasn't used to SF4 yet.

    This guys sucks,with Sagat,Ryu,Ken or Bison I win anyone in the world.

    It was one match on Street Fighter IV and one match on SFHD.
    Then the decider was on the coin toss match.
    They just didn't show the two friendly matches between Eath and Nguyen.
    In the two friendly matches I believe each champion won in their own game. As for Choi losing, there's never an excuse for losing. Part of being the best is being able to handle people that you don't know. You won't always fight characters that you're familiar with.

  • Deth_Walkr

    Posted Feb 12, 2009 4:45 am GMT

    Ummm.....why wasn't there 1 match each of both Street Fighters and a coin toss in the event of a tie? And, why didn't they keep the camera angle from the previous videos? All in all it was a good tournament though. I guess they just need more experience and what's not and eventually they will be stellar.

  • Diernes

    Posted Feb 12, 2009 12:42 am GMT

    This tournament was pathetic Gamespot, sorry. Terrible camera work, and apart from Seth's commentary the rest was abysmal. i do agree that the players sholdnt have to hear the commentary either, makes it very difficult to concentrate.

    Criminally The best match of the tournament, Guile (final champion) vs Ryu in HD remix was only half shown

    Final 2 matches were a joke. John would have owned that guy if he chose a character that john was familar with. Alot of uncertanties game into the game because of it.

    Then the SF4 champion had to play a game without the character which got him to the end of the tournament. It should have been 1 match on SF4, one match on HD remix, and then the decider on a random choice. Or even better the best out of 5 between both games.

    i didn't think it was that serious... and yes pimper is right that dude played a perfect guile. you guys should just post ur tags and handle it on the 17th... lol

  • pimperjones

    Posted Feb 11, 2009 10:43 pm GMT

    If you go to the Louvre and start telling people that Picasso's painting are garbage because they don't look like real life, then yes you're gonna get called out. The dude came onto a Street Fighter board and started spewing nonsense, I called him out. End of story.
    If you can't handle that then too bad. In the real world people don't sugar coat things unless they're your parents, we're grown ups if you can dish out criticism then you can take it.

    Pimperjones
    Uh yeah, I hear people use the word "noob" all the time in everyday vernacular. But hey, let's assume I am not from where you are and people do use "noob" like you said. Well, you werent, so whats your point? And another thing, Erckel, the only thing your "pimpin," is the girls from Soul Calibur.

    who in the hell decided on that camera view? why not let us look in some window from across the room? How exciting for the final!
